thinking about how when Jeremy was being a little shit, Corey sat there, processing and deciding on how to respond appropriately, before eventually settling on the stern, "Okay, five minutes, and then you're going to bed", which is most definitely word for word what his mother has been telling him since childhood whenever he was 'acting up'.
and thinking about how he probably always hoped to never be like his mother, and how he was thinking about another way to discipline Jeremy and have some authority over him without being like her, only to end up doing what he's known to be on the receiving end of so intimately his entire life.

I watched Lily Simpson's analysis of the trans Two-And-A-Half Men episode, and I'm sorry, but it's hilarious and iconic that Bill's old name was Jill... like it sounds so absurd and completely unrealistic if you're trans, but honestly, that's just a power move 😭

god every fucking time on a movie or a TV show the teen or adult child is saying a bunch of hurtful shit to their mother and you can just tell from the way the scene is building that the mother is going to hit them in the face. and then she does. and then instead of beating the mother to death with a kitchen chair or (more reasonably if not quite as satisfyingly) being like "oh wow ok you just forfeited literally all my love and respect for the rest of your life," and leaving, the child usually fucking apologizes. and even if they don't it's never ever treated as the moral event horizon for the mother that hitting your child in the face for saying words to you actually is

Anyway yeah normal child thing to have a longstanding wish that you were actually an orphan, switched at birth, etc because that meant your parents weren't actually your parents and maybe there were better nicer people out there for you

it drives me nuts that so many amazon prime movies/shows straight up don't have subtitles. there are youtubers who get like 10 views per video who still take the time to write out subtitles and you're telling me this multi-billion dollar corporation, the second biggest streaming service in the WORLD, can't be bothered to do the same? fuck off
