I’ve been catching up with Grey’s Anatomy on Netflix and the latest season has this bittersweet sense that the show might close soon so it wants to say as much as it can. Like, Grey’s is soapy trash but it’s always been soapy trash that does its best to highlight things it can. It hasn’t always done the best but it has always done, and seeing it do more gives me a lot of feelings

applying to jobs in nyc:send out fifty applications, hear back from one (1) in an automated rejection email. there are subway rats with better qualifications than you.
applying to jobs in a smaller city: send out a handful of applications, maybe you’ll hear from– oh god. they are calling you. you have three interviews. you still have to call half of them back. two emails just came in from companies that saw your resume online. you have impressive experience. you are overwhelmed with Choice.
So I obviously did NOT finish the liveblog two days ago, sorry! Hopefully I can finish in the next week. Currently I’m at my father-in-law’s, where the wifi and cell service are spotty and everything besides the beach is generally miserable (he’s v controlling and so staying with him is not fun).
But I have some early nights next week and at least one should work to finish 106!
Dear everyone:
Don’t send your friends/relatives links to jobs unless it’s seriously their dream position or something. You may mean well but it’S REALLY ANNOYING AND KIND OF CONDESCENDING.

Ahhhh this is dramatic they’re going to try and touch the crystals and Pluto’s going to come in a die
*braces for tears*WHAT
I thought he was dead but this actress is such a joy to watch I’m on board with this.
This musical has endless surprises I love it so much.
Saphir was such a troll in this one xD
“So you think you can join these silver crystals together? SURPRISE FUCKERS, I got them now, I’ll do it!”#i was also surprised that saphir turned out to be the manic enemy instead of demande #nice plot twist there
Saphir being the big enemy was one of my favorite things this musical did. I love that it took the expectation of him being the innocent younger brother who loves and cares for Demand and went entirely the other way. Saphir’s the one who’s twisted and full of malice, and it’s implied that it’s all him, not Wiseman’s influence. I love the hint that his motivation is that the Moon Kingdom essentially took over, because that’s such a cool thread to carry through. If the history of Serenity and the Senshi became common knowledge, why wouldn’t there be dissenters like Saphir?
And then he’s so controlling and unpredictable. Everything he did was something I didn’t see coming. It’s the most wonderful thing.
