Y'all already know it’s rant time -

So it’s finally Diane’s turn. I feel like even though she’s one of the main five characters, she gets pushed out of the spotlight a lot. Her most notable quote is the “sometimes life’s a bitch and then you keep living” and it’s an amazing quote, but I think her first big quote all the way back in season 1 deserves some recognition too. What line is it you may ask? “I don’t think I believe in deep down. I kind of think all you are is just the things you do.” Why is this quote brushed aside every fucking time when it sums up the premise of the whole damn show?? I think those two lines can connect right back to my “There is no other side” post. Bojack was constantly looking for a way to justify himself. Believing there was another side to reinvent himself in, and that no matter what he does, there’s still hope for him to be a good person. But he isn’t. He clung onto anything and everyone to make himself feel better. Letting Sarah Lynn stay with him while enabling and sleeping with her, reconnecting with Charlotte and then almost sleeping with her underage daughter, being there as a brother to Hollyhock until his past caught up with him and inevitably losing all contact with her. Diane didn’t believe in deep down. That’s why when Bojack would come up with any excuse for what he’d done, she was the one to immediately call him out on it. Diane had her philosophy and grew from it. She moved on from Mr. Peanutbutter (even if she did sleep with him twice after) and she allowed herself to be happy and loved. That’s what Bojack couldn’t achieve. He tried so hard to justify the idea of deep down that he eventually fell halfway down with no other side to save him. Falling with only repercussions of what he did to stay with him forever.

“you don’t like the proliferation of terms like Unalive outside of TikTok because you realize that you’re aging out of youth culture and it makes you uncomfortable!”

no I don’t like it because there’s something INCREDIBLY dystopian about being forced to soften terms for basic parts of the human experience like death and sex (and even more so terms for oppressed minorities- call me a “le-dollar sign-bian” and I will bite you) purely because advertisers and corporations demand it

The idea that young people are getting used to not being able to speak in public about sex, queerness etc without talking around censors, and see this as normal and not a problem, scares me tbh.

by far the funniest reason my dad came up with for why he doesn't want me to work in the funeral/mortuary industry is because it's "unattractive". like man do you think i apply to jobs based on their impact on my tinder profile.

Please take a comforting realistic affirmation and pass it on (again. This time for a week :] )

You are doing what you can. It is enough.

It has been okay before, It will be okay again.

You don’t have to love yourself. First, you just have to not hate yourself.

You’re special because you’re the only you, not the only one feeling this.

Know that you can’t save everyone. Remember that you can try.

This too shall pass.

You are capable of so much more than you think.

You are not a failure. No matter what.

Treating yourself with kindness is harder than it sounds. But don’t give up.

You’re doing so well. I’m so proud of you.*

*it may not seem like I can be, but seeing that someone needed to hear it and so they let me say it makes me so so proud. It’s a bit of an oroboros but we’re ignoring that. <3

it should be illegal to tow a car as punishment and i’m not even kidding

you park in the wrong spot somewhere. maybe at a friend’s apartment complex, or at a store when you’re actually walking somewhere else, or whatever. they could ticket you—still charge you a fine for parking where you’re not supposed to. but instead, in a far more crippling way than a fine (which is already hard enough for low income people), they call a third party and steal your car. so you have lost your means of transportation, which you will only learn the next time you need your car, because they don’t have any need or care to notify you.

so first, you have to figure out which towing company they used. which you can only do if the place that decided your car was in the wrong spot is still open, or if you can get someone on the phone.

assuming you figure out which company towed your car, which one time took me over an hour on its own because the number on the signs warning about towing in the parking lot was a dead number, you then have to figure out how to get there. without a car. god help you if you don’t have someone in your support network to pick you up or public transportation, because most of the time it’s at least a mile away.

you find a way to get there, you call them to see if your car is even really there, and they tell you they won’t give your car back until you pay them. how much? well, it’s not regulated, so they can pretty much say whatever number they goddamn feel like. i recently got towed by a company infamous in my college town and they charged me a whopping $180–half of my paycheck for two weeks during the school year. when the same company towed my brother last year, and we both have the same sized cars, they charged him $300. they don’t have to justify the charge, they don’t have any itemized receipt, because what are you going to do? not pay it? you have to get to work and you’re already short on time because you had to walk to the goddamn towing place or have someone come get you to bring you there or spend an hour on the phone with different people trying to figure out where the fuck your car was in the first place.

it’s extortionate. it’s absolutely insane that they can, without exaggeration, steal someone’s car and hold it for ransom under the assumption that you will pay anything to get it back, because of the extent to which our society is dependent on cars.
