El Internado is a bloody ride! Like I've only watched 2 eps but so much stuff is going on and I love it I knew Ivan wouldn't be expelled even if that prank they played on the maid was horrible and I love Marcos, but with the amount of times his sister has gone off to the woods and talking about gnomes & fairies I don't see this working out well for him & watching too many conspiracy shows has me doubting whether Ivan is really that maids son.

Spoiler:


I'm really hoping the hype over 13 reasons dies down sometime soon, cause my patience is severely being tested with some people I follow on Twitter. Like I'll ignore you saying Snowbarry is the true otp of the flash & Westallen is incest, along with people unfortunately shipping Supercorp and acting like Sanvers don't exist simply cause they hate bland-el as well. But there's only sooo many times I can deal with peeps acting like 13 reasons is the holy grail before I remember on Tweetdeck I can adjust my filters & tune this stuff out (It's really annoying how often I forget this )

ivaaaaaan. i love him. his character goes on such a great journey of becoming a decent guy. and i liked marcos a lot at first, but trust me, in time you will really come to hate him. did you notice that the kindergarten teacher, amelia, is laura from GH? or that fermin is bernardo from 6H? (and the gym teacher, the dude with the white hair, is actually good friends with luz irl.) other random people you'll see pop up eventually in EI (aside from luz): the actor who played german in 6H, the actor who played camilo in 6H, and the actress who played elisa in 6H. but some of those are a long ways off ...

Snowbarry, what's that??


And yeah, I hope it dies down as well, specially because now there are teachers going crazy, like we HAVE to use this show in our classrooms, wtf, a teacher literally said (after many of us, me included, pointed out that this is a very sensitive issue for many people and the show can be trigering) "oh, but it's not about the show being trigering it's about us not being those teachers the story shows" to which I said, look, if your reason to bring this up in the classroom is so you're not blamed or feel fuilty about a student possibly committing suicide one day, then it's definitely NOT a good reason, it's the most selfish reason to do it, actually, you couldn't care less anbout the students, you just wanna feel good about yourself. People ARE the worst

The ship name for Barry Allen & Caitlin Snow on The Flash and I curse its existence.

I think this sums up in a nutshell alot of the hype I've seen over this show. Not a misguided attempt at wanting to raise awareness & let people know they're not alone, but ease the conscience so if they are suicidal you can claim you did everything you could & it's not your problem. Like in the UK there's an anti-bullying campaign running in the media all about telling someone if you're being bullied so they can help you ..... because really! Telling someone you're being bullied will make it stop. You'll immediately be believed, the perpetrator expelled from school etc, no comebacks at all, just get on with your life like it never happened? Because it's really that simple

I had a friend ask me what I thought of 13 Reasons Why yesterday. I'd like to go back to last week when no one I knew was talking about this show. I asked her why she wanted to watch the show, and it was only because of the hype, so I redirected her to Big Little Lies. Similar themes, much better storytelling and the ending is super gratifying.

Manu, why? I thought you were going to save yourself from it?

My small inclination to one day catch up diminishes a little bit more every time you say that.

my mom was visiting and wanted to watch it I'm clearly going to heaven. that was painful and 2 whole days of my life I am never getting back. the hype over this show goes to show how truly ****ed up human kind is.
