I Make Him Feel A Lot Too

*buddy aurinko voice* found family? no, darling, this is a made family. I superglued these chucklefucks together kicking and screaming.

everyone should listen to the penumbra podcast. what a masterclass in character narrative. im going to blow a building up. but not myself. because being alive is an impossible and thankless task however continuing to live is also beautiful and also still intrinsically worth living for. <- said in the tone of someone who needs to eat rocks imminently

something about juno steel is that he will never NOT have some freaky telepathic alien link going on

irritability as a main symptom and manifestation of juno's depression is so so important to me because that's one of my biggest symptoms of depression. and it's just so. when you feel yourself getting mad at everyone over every little thing. when juno throws away rita's monitor because he's mad at her for not doing any work even though he knows there isn't any work to do. when he snaps at everyone around him. when he yells at mick so much he almost gets them kicked out of the bar. i feel like that's not a commonly portrayed aspect of depression and i just love that it's very prevalent in juno.

there's an episode of malcolm in the middle where he just shuts up and stops complaining for awhile and it immediately starts to significantly improve his life but also it causes him an ulcer and by the end of the episode he is literally spitting up blood and i have always deeply and unshakably believed that is exactly how the situation would play out for me too
