Mom sent me a facebook link to a PBS news hour post about how the anti-lawn movement is growing. The vast majority of the comments on it were stuff like this:
Most people are on our side here, even the so-called "boomers." We just have to be spreading ecological knowledge and practical means of creating useful habitat in back yards! Educate! Protect! Resist!

tearing up thinking about the fact that Mark was only able to save Gemma because of innie solidarity. Because Helly stole Milchick's walkie talkie and trapped him, giving Mark the opportunity to escape. Because Dylan got back to the severed floor and saw some shit going down and without question threw his body on the line too. Because Lorne was exhausted watching her beloved goats sacrificed to the corporate machine and wasn't willing to stand by and watch Drummond kill one of their own. Because the entire Choreography and Merriment department responded to Helly pleading for help in a scene straight out of Norma Rae
Not a single one of them had ever met Gemma Scout, but they knew Ms. Casey was one of them. An injury to one is an injury to all

Hi hello if it's alright I have Questions about the Sleeping Terror Lieut art you posted 1. Are Irving and Hodgson restraining Little? Is it on purpose? He's already starfishing, is he a kicker/thrasher without appropriate support? Alternatively, is Little the anchor for the other two? Hodgeson primly holding the crook of his arm and Irving's sleeping cap across his eyes would imply as much. 2. The pillow on the floor. Is it Irvings, who stole Ned's after he pushed his own off? Or is it Ned's, who somehow flung it right off the edge of the bed? 3. Irving and Ned both on top of the blanket, Hodge barely using a corner - do the terror lieutenants sleep hotter than most? 4. Hodgson, rigid, face-up, mask on. Jopson, rigid, face-down, into the pillow. Coincidence?
Y’all are out there asking the hard-hitting questions.. I tried to answer a few but even I don’t have all the answers.

so what i'm getting is that seth milchick was once like miss huang and he's been working for lumon since he was a child and he has a lifelong mantra about ridding himself of childish whimsy and he got chastised for being nice to the innies and treating them like humans so a lot of what to us and the innies seemed patronizing or downright torturous was seth milchick's genuine attempt at rewarding them and treating them with kindness and he probably meant it when he told irving his innie is a friend of his because he cannot find solidarity in natalie or anyone above his rank and he has no life outside lumon so the innies are the closest thing he has to friends and they all rightfully see him as a tormentor and hate his guts. cool!

honestly i think the marching band sequence was one of the most horrifying sequences in the whole episode.
this whole season has been milchick silently contemplating his place at lumon, particularly in regards to his race, and yet he is still pushing through even after abuse from kier "himself". he is still performing.
and frankly i don't think it's being taken as seriously as it should be by the audience!!!!!!
i get that that is partially because it is absurd and out there that lumon would have a whole marching band and partially because tramell tillman brought so much oomf to it (i still cannot believe that this is one of his first screen acting gigs - he is such a good actor). and also, it's meant to evoke the first season's dance sequence (but i also don't think that's taken as seriously as it should be by the audience soooo--- ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
but like — i felt a similar kind of horror watching the marching band sequence that i did watching get out and us. like. watch this black man in white gloves and a cane who has been consistently put down and othered for his race throughout this entire show, perform at the request of an automaton of the white man who very likely built his company on the backs of former slaves at the end of the civil war, whose company who still effectively employs slave labor and indentured servitude two hundred years in the future.
for milchick, this season began with lumon black face and ended with, effectively, a lumon minstrel show as someone else put it.
that is horrifying.

really double-standard-y that they're making milchick apologize for obtuse language. at the obtuse language company
Milchick being such a loyal company man and then turning around and having his superiors be casually racist towards him constantly all the time and never having his back and always demanding more from him makes him one of the most interesting characters on the show. Even though he's not severed, I don't think we've ever seen Milchick's outie. I wonder if he even has one.
