welcome to my pitt obsession

idk i just. i gotta say there is something so powerful about having two alpha male coded characters discussing their emotions on a rooftop while grappling with overt suicidality and having the most alpha of the two not only providing emotional support and words of affirmation but actively endorsing therapy. admitting that he goes and it helps. do you understand how insane that is. they really wrote jack abbot to be in the middle of a venn diagram of suicidal demographics and said we're not going to leave him there, we're going to make him be the one who is advocating for the mental health care of healthcare workers. Do you get this. he's a white male veteran between like 18-50 who undoubtedly has access to a firearm. he's disabled, he works in emergency medicine as an attending and we have no idea what kind of support system he has outside of work. like. that is a man i would be actively worried about in my workplace. that is a man who knows how to kill himself and make it stick. and he's talking about his therapist out in the open. the amount of stigma and internalized masculine ideals and military masculinity he has worked through. do you. do you understand. do you understand what an incredible character jack abbot is. i'm tearing up. robby is terrified someone will find out he has ptsd and panic attacks and jack is telling him it's okay. implying he has them too. it's okay because you came out and went right back in it. you were who we needed you to be, and it wasn't fair and it's okay to not be okay. it's okay to need help. jack. jack abbot said those things.

There should be a new joke on The Pitt where the hospital's morgue attendant fucks with the new doctors (individually, they corner the New People one by one throughout the shift as a rite of passage) by telling them a patient was murdered and the crime will remain unsolved without their help.

okay but. santos inadvertently picking abby up on the rebound. no one ever told her langdon's wife's name because why would they and he's been gone for months when she hits it off with this woman at a bar. and they're vibing and they go back to the woman's place to hook up and suddenly santos stumbles across a picture of FRANK LANGDON AND HIS CHILDREN
