Right? She mentioned multiple times in the season 2 premiere that she was turned on by Paula and her abilities, and coupling that with her obvious attraction to Valencia that's come up more than once, my headcanon is that Rebecca is bi. Like me! And Darryl! And Maya!

Oh my god, "or fear that they do," you just hit it on the head, that's me exactly, I'm paralyzed by a fear of becoming like the people who have abused me, even though everyone tells me I'm nothing like those people, but my brain tells me I'm exactly like them and that I'm hurting all of my loved ones

1) I get it, Josh, I had the exact same reaction when I first saw Brittany Snow in Pitch Perfect. Be still, my heart.

Thank you, was gonna make this comment myself until I saw yours

Bojack Horseman is phenomenal, I love that you mentioned it

I started binging the show about two weeks ago (almost caught up!) and one of the reasons I love it so much is that I'm struggling right now because of a terrible job (I'm leaving in 2 weeks, though, thank god). Obviously my struggles have been markedly different from Rebecca's, but just seeing mental illness treated

Same, I'm usually 4-5 weeks, but I've gone 3 weeks before and I've gone up to 9 weeks before (luckily I knew I wasn't pregnant but it was still frustrating, basically skipping a period).

One of my favorite TV portrayals of abortion was on Bojack Horseman (does that count as TV if it's a Netflix original?), where the whole episode was just done so well.

I legit cried at that scene, and as a card-carrying shipper (Team Greg, if you're curious), it was a great reminder for me that the most important relationships on this show are not the romantic ones.

There are parts of the show that don't involve you wanting to have sex with Greg?

This entire thread was gold but your final comment pushes it up to platinum. Which is like the Harvard of comment thread awards.

YES, thank you, that line killed me and I was hoping that character would win this week's Hector Award, just for that alone!

OH MY GOD, THAT IS SO ACCURATE IT HURTS

Same!

I think he would've dropped everything for her if this had happened in their early 20's, but it being almost a full decade later, I really think he's too deeply mired in his family's expectations of him to give it all up: the job, the wealth, the "dynastic" plan.

Call me the worst but I actually love this trope

That's an astoundingly good point. Huh.

No, I'm with you, there's something about her lips that's distractingly off lately. It reminds me of how Jordan's lips started looking on Scrubs, which is why I wonder if you're right and it's collagen/botox?

I'm actually a fan of her on New Girl, but I completely agree with this; her performance was very odd and kind of terrible.

Agreed about the love interest, but damn if I don't love that the nurses are standing up for themselves, especially since it didn't get resolved at the end of the episode. "That's not cool!"
