Would you mind helping me understand
Hang on. Am I misunderstanding, cuz this comes across to me like “oh you don’t like capitalism yet have an iphone?” I don’t even personally use Twitter but I get why people do, even when they hate the dude.
Thats part of what made me keep watching. It’s almost masochistic. Walts character going further into the narcissistic abuse with each season is horrifying to me, but it’s also so well written through that psychological lens that it fascinates me.
The difference between that and BCS for me was mostly that there was a ton more back story to see how Jimmy’s psychology developed. I had a lot more sympathy for him.
Both are interesting to me in the sense of how TV shows were starting to pivot away from these more traditional perfect protagonists into complex mixtures of horrible people that I still wanted to root for. But again, masochistic for me, cuz I want to see the good in everyone — and that has come at the cost of understanding when I need to set boundaries and walk away irl. I like to tell myself its like exposure therapy when in reality I need professional therapy 💀


My dad used to ask me to scratch his bald spot when I was like gradeschool age. 25+ years later, he’s still just that small spot in the back. My mom cuts his hair now, keeps it fairly short but I don’t think it’s even that noticeable now that it’s all gray
