i feel like women and teenage girls can't enjoy something they like without being shitted on.

maybe it's because of misogyny, but i also think that society just wants to watch the world burn.

i saw somebody on twitter say that being a Taylor Swift fan in 2024 feels like being a jew in 1938.

i am very neutral when it comes to taylor swift in general and although i agree that swifties are often hated on, this could've been worded a lot better.

yes it is stupid to be hated on because of something so simple such as your music taste, but that does not give you the right to compare your experience to a fucking genocide.

like how can you even compare those 2 things?????

i often see people commenting about Emma Kenney and how she came out to say that emmy rossum wasn't a joy to be around on set and what not;

they say shit like how emma kenney is a brat on shameless and irl and i think that is so strange.

yes, you watched her act in a show, but this doesn't equal to knowing her personally.

you do not know her and she does not know you, how would you know if she is a so called brat?

with that being said, emma kenney is not bad at acting either. the casting directors would have not accepted her if they didn't think she would be good, or shall i say PERFECT; for the role.

and no, just because you dislike her does not mean nobody likes her.

her social media following says otherwise and the multiple blogs that write for her and her character debbie gallagher also prove you wrong.

and yes, so what if emma kenney said positive things about emmy rossum?

a human can be your favourite person to walk this earth but simultaneously be a horrible person.

i do not believe that emmy rossum is abusive, i think it was a financial matter.

i do agree that she one of the reasons shameless was so liked and that she was infact under paid but to take it out on your coworkers, let alone coworkers who are minors?

that's a whole different thing. she did not deserve to be under paid but she was not in the right to act shitty towards the people she works with.

hating on a real person because you dislike their work and portrayal of a fictional character is fucking delusional and downright insane.

like i am truly in shock.

p.s., this post was fuelled by this weird ass tiktok post on my fyp about how emma went on a podcast to talk about her ON SET. experience, so you can probably already see what the comments looked like.

if you can't imagine what the comments were, its just people being ignorant and weird because they are busy dick-riding a character they like a lot vs a character they hate so much that they are willing to go as far as invalidate a person's experience.

Okay, I'm sorry but I just can't forgive Fiona.

Hear me out.

When it was revealed that Ian had been sleeping with Ned/Jimmy's dad, Fiona didn't talk to anybody involved about how wrong this was and how weird this whole situation is. Instead she's more annoyed with Jimmy's behavior. (His behaviour, I might add, is to be appalled not that his father is a pedophile, but that he's gay.)

Ian takes off. Fiona is fine with this because she "trusts him". Excuse me? Why exactly do you trust him again? Like. I adore Ian. But his behaviour is not a great sign!! You knew that he'd been sleeping with older men, taken up with the local scary teen thug- son of the neighborhood Nazi, and then disappeared only sending one short text. Don't trust that!! So many red flags! Like where's CFS asking about Ian?? She doesn't even mention him in her legal/custody related court stuff. Sorry but she essentially LOST HIM!!?!?!???

And finally. He comes back and he's acting "caffeinated" and you are clearly at least slightly disturbed by his behaviour. And now he's back with that neighborhood thug again, AND NOW HE'S DANCING UNDERAGE AT A CLUB?!?!!! Fiona makes faces and rolls her eyes and acts like "welp! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Nothing I can do as his LEGAL GUARDIAN OR ANYTHING."

It's neglect. It's just straight up child neglect. And like, sure, I think all the kids are neglected in some way or another. But this is just so blatant and not caused by a lack of necessities. It would cost them nothing to talk to Ian about this. Or a multitude of other reactions to all the above scenarios that aren't just brushing off the problem at every opportunity.

i wish we saw mandy learning how to cook new things and fiona washing the dishes at the same time whilst she supervises and tells mandy how to cook a certain meal, what ingredients are needed and the different methods.

i wish we saw them baking a cake or cookies for a birthday or celebration together.

we were robbed of so many sibling bonds/characters that were pitted against each other yet had so much potential. (not romantically)

Mandy milkovich I'm so sorry you never got the big sister you needed

need more people to talk about poc being racist to poc.

white people are not the only ones, especially as someone who is a woc, i have experienced racism from so many other poc and it fucking sucks.

i thought we were on the same side? my bad, I obviously thought wrong.

'im a gallagher, of course I don't go to therapy'

PLEASE.

I'M ON MY HANDS AND KNEES BEGGING YOU.

honestly, ian gallagher was failed because the gallaghers don't actually understand what it really is like to be bipolar.

i've noticed they have said that ian being bipolar doesn't change anything or that they know what bipolar is because of monica.

i do believe that is true but only to an extent.

i feel like fiona and lip knew what bipolar was due to seeing it in another relative (monica) but knowing the symptoms and actually knowing how to treat it are two different things.

understanding it is a whole different thing.

when watching shameless, i always feel sick whenever I see them doing their thing and whatever to help ian and i know it sucks to hear but sometimes it's just better to leave it to the professionals.

had the gallaghers believed in therapy and didn't allow their dignity/pride to get the best of them, the story would be different.

in conclusion, ian and pretty much every other gallagher; but mainly ian. had a difficult time in life because all of them were either in denial or just simply did not want to go to therapy because they were most likely scared at what could be the outcome, scared of what could've been their best version of themselves.

this could be because of the fact that they are from the south side and for some reason, pride & dignity is worth more than a better version of yourself.

(oh and the fact that everyone on the south side in shameless all think they are south side scum who are incapable of having a good life so they allow themselves to suffer)

sorry but if my father broke my little brother’s nose i would be happy to know he was in another country and wouldn’t bother to get him back. if i found out my boyfriend’s dad was having an affair with my brother i would kill the father, and if my boyfriend didn’t have an issue with his father being a pedophile i’d end the relationship because of that. if my brother was getting drunk every day and not leaving his bed for days on end i would worry and help him. if my brother, who’s a child, ran away for months on end after doing all of that and all i heard was a single text (with no information) from him i would file a missing persons report. if he came back acting completely different and i could tell he was prostituting himself, he would be quitting that job and getting some help. if i let that all happen, and years later, i acknowledge he’s unstable and see that he now as a church where he is basically seen as god, i would get him the help he needs before he gets himself into more danger. ian gallagher was failed.

helloooooo, i just saw a tiktok slideshow with barry keoghan's grave scene in saltburn and then frank gallagher's grave scene (bianca) but so far my day has been very good.

it's like people can't have their own opinion :(

i will walk through literal fire for debbie, she's so much more than a fictional character for me.

and it's so funny because i remember when i first joined the fandom and everybody was like fiona this, fiona that and because of it, it didn't give me any space or time to have my own opinion about different characters.

and it's not like i even 100% hate fiona, it's just her stans; debs and fiona are sisters, you cannot erase that no matter how hard you try.

i feel like the more people have been posting positive things about debbie gallagher, the more people have started to come out and say they really do love her but were scared of getting harassed over it, and it’s making me realize there may not be as many debbie haters as i thought they’re just hiding because this fandom is mean😭 i’m fully convinced half of the people who say they hate debbie don’t really hate her they just don’t want judgement

#debbie gallagher #shameless fandom is lowkey toxic for it

[serotoninzo]

fuck you to the shameless producers for deleting a scene between debbie and fiona where fiona wants debbie at her wedding and also attempts/suggests that they both move on from fighting because they are both sisters and it will be like that for the rest of their lives.

that scene was so important because people always try to pit fiona and debbie against each other and it was one scene talking about regrets, forgiveness, sisterhood and fiona literally telling debbie that she loves her which is significant to me as someone who struggles with love in general and has a distant relationship with my sister.

sorry, i got off track but the point im making is that it does not matter if you like fiona more or hate debbie's guts because at the end of the day; they are related, family and the only 2 girls in their family.

im actually getting sick of seeing girls, women and sisters being against each other.

nobody will ever understand a girl more than a girl does. i will say this over and over again.

because girlhood is so important and girls just wanna have fun but you legit can't do that when you're busy fighting your own sister.

like knowing that we could've gotten a scene where debs and fiona apologise, forgive and move on.

wym we could've had an actual strong sister bond between the 2? instead of them arguing 24/7???????

i am upset at what could've been but didn't happen all because the producers decided to switch up last minute and completely try to make a TEENAGE GIRL look like she's a horrific person who deserves to be burnt at the stakes.

was looking through some deleted shameless scenes and istg, the producers hated debbie gallagher.

emma kenney is such a gorgeous person and her acting in shameless was done perfectly but there were so many scenes, especially from s6 that were deleted that showed so much more to debbie gallagher but instead they decided to make her seem like a 'brat'

there were even some scenes in which it included debbie and fiona but not in the usual light that we see them in s6.

those deleted scenes showed a sister bond between the two, emma kenney did such a good job at taking the script of debbie gallagher and bringing her to life.

but no, these scenes were too complex; to the producers of shameless, these scenes held no value whatsoever, as the value that the 10584728292 repetitive sex scenes had held.

like if i saw any of those in shameless, i would've actually sobbed. I don't want to see the gallagher boys bonding, i wanted to see debbie and fiona; not just in the early seasons but in s6 as debbie goes through her adolescence and pregnancy, instead of it just being these screaming matches with poor communication.

i am a strong believer that the producers liked frank more than they liked debbie which is crazy asf considering that is a raging alcoholic and an absent father compared to a literal teenage girl.

but in this society, im starting to believe that people prefer abusive alcoholics over teenage girls.

like we get it, they can be the spawn of satan at times, however, they are definitely one of the most misunderstood. people who aren't or ever were teenage girls will never understand what it is like to actually be a teenage girl.

and that is okay, being a teenage girl is not for the weak and is simply not for everyone.

i bet my life that if you look hard enough for it, that petition definitely already exists.

if debbie did half of the shit her siblings did there would be a petition created to have her killed off

i need to see a movie about a dysfunctional family but not from the perspective of an abused, neglected child with shitty parents but from the perspective of a broken bond between siblings.

except they don't ever make up and rebuild that relationship because unfortunately, sometimes things are better left unspoken.

p.s., they're middle class but not in a wealthy way, more as in a just barely surviving paycheck to paycheck and they had such an innocent family bond but as the youngest child grows older, it all starts to slip away whilst their mental health is worsening by each day that passes by.

think of it as a pavement, freshly paved as it starts to marinate year by year before the cracks start to widen more and more and then as we know it, the pavement is completely swallowed up by this huge hole in it's center with cracks surrounding it.

btw. it’s not funny to be genuinely mean and terrible to your little sibling? just so we’re like. clear. it’s not funny or a joke to chase them around with knives or make fun of them to your friends or Lock them in a Dark Storage Room (to the one tiktok comment i saw) it’s not cain instinct or funny or “older sibling things” it’s genuinely traumatizing for some of them. and sometimes, whenever little siblings talk about the cruel shit their older brothers/sisters did to them that wasn’t a joke to them, 90% of the time those same type of siblings will call them babies or downplay it or, pull out the classic, “i had to raise you”.

kids shouldn’t ever be put in the position of having to raise their younger sibling, but it does not give you the right to be cruel and take it out on your sibling who did not have a choice in the family they were born in either. there’s a difference between ribbing and genuinely impacting the way your sibling views themselves and you because of something you did to them. i’m sick of this shit man y’all suck

[serotoninzo]

i grew up in a dysfunctional family so i don't really know what an actual sibling bond looks like.

for example: whenever I'm watching a tv series or a movie and it shows an actual healthy bond between siblings; i always end up cringing at it.

like damn, y'all actually love each other?

that is the only false, inaccurate thing in television for me. there are so many dysfunctional families in such bad situations that it ends up not only ruining the bond between a parent and a child but also the bond between siblings.

when i say dysfunctional family, i mean as in they're all living in the same house, within the same walls and under the same roof but yet not a single word is spoken.

i mean dysfunctional as in the survival of the fittest. like it does not matter if you are the youngest, the moment you reach the ages 10-12, you are quite literally on your own.

you have to cook for yourself, go through school by yourself, clean, etc.

maybe that's just my experience but idk.
