s1 is Emma's season (finding her place in Henry's life)

s2 is Regina's season (finding her place in Henry's life, aka trying to earn back his love)

3A is Emma's season (navigating her relationship with her family)

3B is Regina's season (navigating her relationship with her family)

4A is Emma (exploring her gayness magic)

4B is Regina (exploring her gayness magical past) (but also Emma's arc is obviously continued)

s5 is all Emma

6A is Regina (coming to terms with her role as the evil queen)

6B is Emma (coming to terms with her role as the saviour)

we don't talk about s7 (but it's about Rumplestiltskin)

There's so much regal believer that there's two Henrys

She both cast the curse and is also the only one trying to break it

Drizella's entire character arc only exists to be a mirror for Regina

The season ends with her being crowned the Good Queen, of all the realms, which is the true completion of her redemption arc, but along the way we see her relationships grow with all her family members (especially Zelena, but also she gets to be "cool aunt Regina" to Robin, she has a new daughter-in-law and granddaughter) and also the completion of her storyline with Rumple. He manipulated her, turned her evil, she overcame that, and went on to outlive him

The rest of her story becomes her life as it should have been... her mother, the King, and Rumple are all now dead, and she's finally free, and everyone loves her

And also, Regina attempting to be the hero without the Charmings or Robin Hood around to make her feel inadequate because she can't live up to their standards

One of the core tenets of this show is that villains don't get happy endings, and Regina got her happy ending (and it's not a fucking man!!) which means she is finally, officially no longer a villain

... and also we get to see her dressing cool, making questionable life choices, taking shots, and fighting people with baseball bats because she can't make fireballs in Seattle

“So... We got the exploding diarrhea. Here's my advice for anyone who doesn't have it yet:

It's going to take a minute for the government to pin down where this is coming from, and then issue a recall, because the FDA has been gutted. But, I can tell you, without a shadow of a doubt : this is coming from Taylor Farms produce, and you will see them recalled.

You'll want to avoid all Taylor Farms produce in the grocery store. They supply McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut, about any fast food place you can think of.

Raspberries, watermelons, cilantro, and the veggies you're hearing about are not causing this many people to get sick. It's the shredded lettuce, specifically, that's the problem. But, you'll want to stay away from every type of produce this company puts out, because one strand of shredded lettuce is all it takes to contaminate bushels.

Taylor Farms is the source. Taco Bell proactively pulled their produce from their restaurants. You're going to see other fast food places doing this, and probably will see that before the government names a source. The FDA knows this, but they can't come out and tell us all until there's proof, which takes resources and research, which takes manpower, but the FDA has been cut by about 20-30%

During the Biden term, onions at McDonald's had ecoli. We knew this because DNA testing was done quickly and they were able to narrow it down to one place that caused the outbreak. And, it was traced back to Taylor Farms. This isn't going to be solved as quickly though.

When you get this, make a virtual appointment to your PCP - a "same day sick" appointment. Tell them someone in your family just tested for this and was positive and was prescribed Bactrim. If you go in person, they're probably going to make you poop in a cup and wait until results come back to prescribe.

You'll know when you get this. Trust me on all of this.

You'll want to stay hydrated because this parasite damages the lining of the small intestine. Your small intestine, in turn, secretes more water into the gut, and less nutrients and liquid are able to remain in the body. So no matter how much you shit, you're going to want to drink. A day of this leads to dehydration if you don't increase your fluid intake, and a few days will land you in the hospital.

If you have headaches, weakness, muscle cramps, dizziness, or an increase heart rate - hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Go to the ER for fluids if you can't drink enough.
