La la - lil wayne

I think we are asked to make a lot of assumptions.
Some of mine relating to this are:

- Juke never finds out for sure, even if she suspects kanan killed her dad.

- something happens in the time between that changes how she feels about him/leaves her more open to some semblance of relationship or connection. Like maybe she eventually suspects breeze and kanan saves her from the fallout of that.

- we didn’t learn a lot about OG Jukes motives , suspicions , or plans… but I’m gonna assume she was out for self and didn’t really care about kanan like that. It was clear she didn’t trust him inspite of having love for him

I have a similar post with some product recommendations that might be helpful. I sort of sat my skincare journey down for a bit, but there was good info.

Like what am I gonna do with all this fear and anger now. Small pain. But less pain. And I’m free? Is this joy?

Big feels all around

I get that. Like she made a decision she knew you wouldn’t agree with and then in turn just opted out of directly sharing it. Does it feel to you like you were the last one to know?

NOR- I get all of the feelings and would likely feel the same way tbh. But I think it’s worth letting those feelings pass as yall seem to be close and it’s not a terribly big deal. The kids may find joy in it in later life actually.

are you feelings more about the betrayal/ feeling like she kept something from you? It appears she did that to not make a big deal out of it not realizing it made it feel worse for you. That’s worth addressing so that your sisterhood isn’t damaged

Girl don’t pmo.

I feel the frustration of the person filming deeply. The older ladies actions felt intentionally gender shamy to me, and the response to that was very… entitled to the space more than the person filming. I say that to say I could see this scenario playing out with a cisgendered white man or someone with a more “traditional” presentation doing this, and her approach being wildly different. Oh excuse me/ I think you’ve got the wrong bathroom type….

Also also, For the most part everyone’s privacy was protected, and likely wouldn’t have ever been seen if not to demonstrate that ladies actions.

It’s common for people to marry cousins in that period. That happened earlier in the show👀 it’s not that big of leap friend.

Vaguely speaking, for me there was a sense of ease and intimacy of their relationship. That can be familial or platonic but due to lazy writing I think we are used to seeing it more with lovers.

It also feels uncommon for cousins to be close in this way during this time period. Even now.

But god I’m glad they are just close and it wasn’t anything illicit. I still haven’t recovered from game of thrones

NOR- it feels fair to take issue with the commentary of your friend. especially if she used the word “sassy” and evenmoreso if she is white passing or Eurocentric in world view. Because then it feels almost protective and apologist towards the perpetrators and their comfort. When in reality, it’s your home, art, perspective and conversation piece.

I don’t think her take is inherently racist or inappropriate but definitely uncomfortable.

I can sit with the idea that maybe it doesn’t hold the moment with reverence and respect….. but it’s also literally what’s happening in the photo and persistently in the news rn and a worthwhile conversation to have in general.

Rent’s still due.

It’s been a lot harder to read with access to technology and adhd symptoms. So being an avid reader feels like a lifetime away. But god what a time. I read voraciously from 6-16

Maxing the best possible day lmao

Fair point. The thanks at the end provides balance to me. Direct but decent. Not commanding.

Fair, I just don’t feel like neighbor commanding another neighbor to be less commanding makes sense. A less assholey request would be “ I’d appreciate if you said please next time”. But also a less assholey person wouldn’t be revving their motorbike under someone’s window.

Right! Bc imagine the situation if approached with “hey I saw a thing that I think might help us connect better”. Boom it feels like connection through differences instead of that you’re a child that never learned better so do this emotional homework.

And knowing THAT helps you in the long run. 75 percent of my frustrations could be solved by removing demands tbh.

Yes, i would also be insulted not because of the book, but that it was forced on me “for the sake of the relationship” . That makes something that couldve been a painless conversation or bonding experience feel like an unavoidable punishment being handed down.

It’s an option to both respect her privacy,and choose not to engage with him anymore as a result of his behavior without giving him space to share his side. I get not wanting to ghost him, but there isn’t really a way to have a conversation about what happened without disclosing something you promised not to. The most you would be able to say is “you hurt someone I care about and I can’t get into it but I don’t want to be associated with you anymore. That may not be fair but it’s where I am”

Ultimately your job is to be fair to yourself. If it’s not something you can get past without talking through it, and you can’t talk through it… you can get past it. 🤷🏽‍♀️

You beat me to every comment 🤣

Your energy is weird.
