Feeling for Mohan who is the embodiment of a the eldest [asian] daughter. Expected to rise to every occasion, and meet the demand of responsibility even if it's at the expense of her own mental health.

And at the first sign of struggle, weakness, need for respite or even during an actual breakdown- Instead of comfort - is met with:

"I need you to stop feeling sorry for yourself and focus."

I know the Pitt is a family, and we've joked that Dr. Robby is like the Dad, pittlings like the siblings- But Samira being his "first born/eldest daughter" rang true today.

Because throughout the shift Robby has checked in on how everyone else is feeling (talks Whitaker, even laughs with Santos, encourages Mel and keeps an eye on Javadi). But Samira? He counts on her Dependability.

And Whether it's because she is a mirror of his own worst fears/ insecurities or because he is trying to push her to be better than him, Robby has pulled what most asian parents have.

Expectation over Empathy.

So to Mohan who has built her life around what should be done? Built her plans around family expectation?

She allows the eldest daughters to be seen.

moments before disaster 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

The media makes sure they ignore her but the WNBA as a league is really the perpetrator.

For showing her support against genocide she was FIRED from Scream 7. An article states it’s because she was leaning into antisemitism by an Instagram story she posted in which she said the media is not showing both sides of Palestine and Israel. Personally I feel it’s a way for producers or the studio, whatever, to tip toe around the fact that Jenna Ortega also voiced her support for Palestine and they don’t want to fire her to continue to bring in her audience.

To say that she denounces genocide and the murders of innocent people, she was fired from a franchise that she was their lead for the last two films raking in Millions. Sick af. If Scream 7 goes forward, I’m not watching it. I don’t care how stacked the cast is or even if Neve Campbell returns. It’s over for them.

They’ve killed the franchise for me. I’m good.
