feeling frankly insane about 2x18 the age of dissonance.
dan is actively being groomed during this plotline. he is in a secret relationship with a teacher at his school who initiated multiple meetings off school grounds, read his essays and his stories and praised him for his maturity, used him as emotional support when she felt alienated in new york (tapping into his own alienation, giving him someone who “gets it”), and then had sex with him the literal same night she was fired from her job. then, when she returns to her job, she has sex with him again while on school grounds behind the stage at his school play. because he’s in high school. he’s a high school senior.
dan cannot see how he’s being manipulated and how harmful this is for him. his dad begs him to not be “short-sighted” and to think about what he’s doing by engaging in this relationship, and dan essentially tells him that he’s an adult and will make his own choices. he’s not alarmed by multiple adults getting involved in 2x17, because he seems himself as an adult.
the act that finally makes dan realize that ms. carr isn’t a trustworthy adult is her targeting blair. he learns that ms. carr is sending information to yale and to… gossip girl …. (so crazy girl aren’t you like 25 why are you talking to gossip girl) to ruin blair’s future and he immediately does a complete 180 on ms. carr. he firmly tells her “blair is a high schooler, you’re an adult” when she tries to justify her actions, and that’s the last conversation he ever has with her.
he can’t extend that own sentiment to himself. dan is ALSO a high schooler, and yet he describes blair in that way almost as if it’s separate from himself. he doesn’t say “we’re” high schoolers. blair is a high schooler. he doesn’t see the issue in ms. carr having sex with him twice, meeting him outside of school, wanting him to call her rachel. in fact he blames himself! he thinks he’s the one who’s done wrong in the situation and defends ms. carr to everyone! but when her manipulative behavior is directed towards blair, he sees it clearly and puts an immediate stop to it. cuts it off with rachel, warns blair, and even gives blair information that could hurt his future at yale if it got out.
it baffles me that people dismiss blair and dan’s dynamic pre-season 4 by saying that their friendship/romance “came out of nowhere” like……..dan time and time again draws a line when he sees blair being treated unfairly. he expresses disappointment in serena, chuck, and now ms. carr when he feels that they’re being unkind or unforthcoming with blair. he extends to her an empathy that he doesn’t even extend to himself. it’s insane. dair forever and ever and ever until my dying day

Incomprehensible - big thief
"I'm afraid of getting older", that's what I learned to say 'Cause society has given me the words to think that way The message spins and spirals, "Don't get saggy, don't get grey" But the soft and lovely silvers are now falling on my shoulder My mother and my grandma, my great-grandmother too They wrinkle like the river, sweeten like the dew And as silver as the rainbow scales that shimmer purple-blue How can beauty that is living be anything but true? So let gravity be my sculptor, let the wind do my hair Let me dance in front of people without a care Let me be naked alone with nobody there Or with mismatched socks and shoes and stuff stuffed in my underwear Incomprehensible Let me be
nothing pisses me off more than when stupid men online don’t realize that a woman is making a joke …. saw a tiktok where this woman was like “my boyfriend in pictures with me vs. with fish” and it’s like him smiling very mildly in posed pictures with her versus big cheesin after catching a fish. and the comments are All Men being like “☝🏻 well when one catches a fish it can engage a high level of adrenaline and excitement versus him feeling more calm in a setting where he’s taking a posed photograph, so of course his expression will indicate the differences” OHHG MY GOD SHE KNOWS SHES FUCKING JOKINGGGGGGG

Casual cruelty has become so ingrained in a lot of people because we live in a society that is structured in a cruel way. To be quite honest you are obligated to consider the harm of your words and actions no matter your personal hardships.
gossip girl genuinely did a really realistic job of depicting an adult in a position of power grooming a teenager with ms. carr and dan like genuinely. her giving him praise for his writing despite Not being his teacher, wanting him to call her by her first name, telling him she understands how alienated he feels, telling him he’s mature for his age and then finally making a move on him the Second her career is no longer threatened by it. it would have been quite a thoughtful storyline if only they didn’t try to convince us that it’s like no big deal
