Big-bardas-helmet - Currently All About The Pitt

people want complex characters but can't even handle a medical doctor in denial about his addiction OR a young woman with a loud mouth and an equally abrasive personality. it's the morality olympics and we've all got those tiny little golf pencils and a scorecard where we keep track of characters' ~sins~. here's aesop's fables in case you want something lighter and more up to your elevated standards

just precisely how bad was 1500s jerusalem at making maps, you ask? well,

thought about the women of the pitt and started sobbing

Oh.

every other southerner/appalachian is screaming this at the top of their lungs too but im begging folk to stop losing their humanity when this region suffers. all alleged empathy blue state folk have is flown out the window when we're freezing or flooding to death. is it so hard to remember we're all human? so hard to process the nuance that good folk exist in a place you think is bad, and even the folk you think are bad dont deserve to die from the malicious apathy of their manipulative politicians? so hard to get that the death of human beings you'll never know the names of shouldn't be celebrated just because you assume they voted red? we are all people. i dont understand how you can be so cruel.

I’m sure I’m breaking some sort of fandom etiquette with this but GODDDDD yall have got to see this edit. I’m obsessed with it

it is my solemn duty to join fandoms and be insane and obsessed about platonic relationships. it’s a critical ecological niche and i am happy to occupy it and draw others in like an angler fish who writes intense and wrenching gen fic.

i love heather collins so fucking much. she starts her day off at work with morning sickness and dana is the one person who knows she’s pregnant. she shows dana a stroller she’s been wanting for a while and uses the money she won from BETTING ON A STOLEN AMBULANCE!!! (objectively hilarious) to finally splurge and get it. she alludes to having miscarried before (“not until i pass twelve weeks. not this time.”) and it’s so obvious how hopeful she is and how badly she doesn’t want to do anything to jinx it (see: testicular torsion case and the way she opens up to the mom). and then we see her have a few small stomach cramps and she brushes them off so quick but. she knows. and we know. and amidst all of this she helps a teenage girl get the abortion she wants and needs because she’s a damn good doctor. and immediately afterwards goes to the bathroom and confirms that she is indeed miscarrying. and then the 6 year old girl comes in after drowning and they can’t save her and you can see how close she is to crumbling but she steels herself and carries on because there are patients that need her. and THENNN she has to work the case with the surrogate mom !!! and the delivery gets dicey and the baby’s apgar is only 3 and the mom starts hemorrhaging and her mask starts to slip and robby sees it and he knows and they make it their mission to ensure that this mother and child make it out in one piece. and they fucking pull it off. and then she finally lets herself really cry in the ambulance bay. and it’s just so heartbreaking and raw and real. i have so much love for heather collins she is such an incredible character and she deserves the world
