Ballroom dancer Eddie you are so dear to me
Y’all want emotionally complex characters and then can’t handle these baddies
Also, if your reaction to Buck and Eddie's fight last night is to label Eddie an "angry man" but you put no such label on Buck after he purposefully slammed Eddie to the ground and then laughed about it with Tommy afterwards in 7x04, then you really need to think about why your read on both characters is so different. And I need you to really, really think about it if your reaction to Chim in 8x16 was also to think that he was suddenly this violent and scary person (which I saw).
Eddie did not hit or hurt Buck physically last night. But Buck literally sent Eddie to the hospital in 7x04. Eddie is currently grieving his father figure and mentor. In s7, Buck was jealous of Eddie and Tommy's friendship but was otherwise emotionally stable. And yet...Buck is still just a playful puppy who gets frustrated sometimes. But Eddie is an angry, abusive man who needs to get beaten up because he dared to put his hand on Buck's lily-white shoulder in anger.
You have to allow characters of color to experience and express the same dark emotions that you accept from white characters. When you say that Chim's outburst in 8x16 makes him unqualified to be captain while ignoring that Bobby has punched perpetrators and destroyed property at scenes in anger, you're creating a double standard. When you see Eddie get angry in one scene and write him off as an abuser but treat Buck's actual violent outbursts as understandable frustration, you are perpetuating harmful racist stereotypes that hold men of color to vastly different standards than white men. And you need to stop.
“what’s your aesthetic” it’s super niche actually it’s called clothes i like. hope this helps
“i can’t believe my wife forgot to remind me” “eddie why didn’t you remind me” MARRIED
I agree with your friend
right so my friend just finished the 9-1-1 episode and she insisted that no one is actually dead because 'it's easter weekend' and that 'he's coming back', i then kindly pointed out how the actor wrote a goodbye letter and she argued that Jesus hosted the last supper 😭
Nope. No. No. No. That didn't happen. Nope. The chapter did NOT end there. Nope. I refuse
the new pope is gonna be Bobby Nash. he's not dead, just busy. new 911 spinoff will be 9-1-1: Vatican City. Thank you for coming to my tedtalk
No, because here's the thing. People don't die on this show. Sure Abby's mom died but that was always gonna happen. Shannon might be the only character that wasn't dying when introduced and actually died. They had an actor giving them trouble who played a character who had literal brain cancer and they didn't kill him off. They just don't kill characters. Maddie just had her throat slashed and survived. And I'm supposed to believe that they just let the death of someone who shares the main character spot with Angela Bassett leak like it's nothing? They were signing autographs and taking pictures. Someone was livestreaming the filming for hours. They weren't even trying to hide what was happening. And I'm supposed to believe that death is actually real???
if they do not show us eddie finding out about bobby. like. i actually cannot fathom that. bobby was eddie's lifeline. he was eddie's living proof that you could get a second chance and be happy. he was his biggest advocate and he was bobby's. he was a good man. he was family.
