just a head's up that i'm pretty much disdain!watching this season. [...] in it now basically for the few things i can still muster up some caring for, i.e. the narratives that aren't complete pieces of shit.
Word.
show: shut. the. fuck. up. you need to shut the fuck up with flagrantly misusing "social justice" and "female empowerment" to make what is a textually abusive relationship supposedly plausible.
ugh, yes. All of the 'yay S/E, Ripper Stefan never happened!' stuff in the episode made me feel ill. "You'd never hurt me"? WTF. I hate so much about what this narrative chooses to be.
the 20-minute long montage of ~memories being regained~. dudes, we all saw it the first time.
That did stretch on. I could practically see the 'this is for new viewers' sign over the whole thing.
and by the time we got to "i can be with you forever", i was on the floor. folks, this narrative is a farce.
RAAAAAAAAAGE. Yes. S/E is the true horror story on this show. :(
Klaus/Rebekah. best scene of the night.
Totally agreed. Claire Holt is magnificent.
Damon's general disgust with everyone's narratives, which speaks to my (lack of) soul.
Sometimes our shared disgust is the only thing making said narratives at all tolerable.
and can we take a moment to appreciate that the first thing Elena did after turning was assault Damon. i teared up, tbh.
It was lovely. I'm going to choose to read that as foreshadowing. ;)
