take me back to places i feel loved in

Also, you do understand there's a reason why Buck is the perceived main character next to Athena? Instead of, idk, Chim or Hen? Never mind Eddie who is played by a man "too pretty to die"? 911 was created by three white men and is still run by one of those white men. You cannot avoid the topic of race when discussing how story lines are or could have been handled, e.g. Ryan having to advocate for different scenes because Tim literally just keeps him on the show for his looks and the baiting opportunities. ;)

Btw. Remember in 2x04 when Eddie's aunt tried to say Shannon "stuck" him with the responsibility of caring for Chris on his own? Remember when Eddie instantly shut her down about it? Because I do. ;) And remember how this was BEFORE Carla and BEFORE Eddie trusted Buck with Chris alone and BEFORE his girlfriends became live-in babysitters? Because I do. ;) Ableist moms exist and they shouldn't be ignored in fictional media just to avoid accusations of #misogyny. And one final note that I have to keep mentioning for some reason /s: All of you talking about emphasizing Shannon's privilege as a white woman being a "bad thing" because "white women are not exempt from misogyny" (thank you, Captain Obvious) are conveniently *not* acknowledging how it would look if the white mom were sincerely portrayed as the better parent over the Mexican father. 😉
