Cancer is the leading killer in Quebec and Canada but it is survivable, I'm 61 and most people I know including me have survived cancer, Simone Giertz (a popular youtuber in the maker genre) survived brain cancer. It does not help if you're more afraid of dying then being dead but we now have something in Canada that my mother did not have in the 90's: euthanasia. Suffering of natural death is not inevitable.

I think at the time of the cemetary, she was still hesitant on how to feel, and that's gonna come back and bite them in the ass for sure. I think you can totally love more than one person at the same time, we're just not really used to seeing it romantically. I think what's hard for people to love more than one person is to be honest and be equal to both, if everyone consents, you know what I mean? Some people find it hard to give their all for more than one person, me included. But people can totally love more than one person at a time, it's just hard to do it right. I'm sorry about your ex, she sounds really toxic. I'm sorry you had to go through that experience.

2025-03-12 13:30:43 +0000 UTCLook, I don't get it. I was in a relationship where she would constantly talk about how toxic her ex-boyfriend was, but she would bring him up a lot. There were other times, but at some point I just kind of stopped talking to her. And you know what happened? Yeah, she went back to her ex. I understand that Buffy and Angel can't be together on the show. But right at the beginning of Something Blue, where Buffy is talking to Willow in the cemetery while on patrol, Buffy is silently trying to convince herself that Riley is the one for her. When she was with Angel, she didn't have to convince herself or anyone else that she loved him. And when he just asked her, she said yes. I don't know what would have happened if he had asked Riley. And I understand that Riley is wrong. He never asks her. Instead, he tells her what he thinks she should feel. And yet, Riley blames her for all the failures of this relationship because he "loves her so much." But if I were Riley, I would feel insecure too. She didn't just break up with Angel, technically he dumped her because it was necessary, and then Buffy was "just trying to survive, trying to breathe" -- that's the episode Prom. But she still loves him. And she loves him a lot. I just don't understand how you can have romantic love for multiple partners at the same time. We have an example on the show -- Oz and Willow. Oz was a great guy, Willow was a great girl, they're two beautiful, smart, level-headed people, beautiful, loyal friends. But Willow makes a mistake, then Oz makes a mistake, and they break up. And when Oz comes back, it turns out that Willow is already in love with Tara. And I'm not judging her, I'm just thinking that maybe there was no love between them at all?

2025-03-03 15:40:15 +0000 UTCBuffy can hit you in the feels hard sometimes. I remember when I cried watching Buffy for the first time in the prom episode in season 3. I did not expect this at all at the time, I thought I was watching just a fun series in my spare time. but I was already invested because the characters feel so alive. And even after my Nth rewatch its still hitting home. When I read about the passing of Michelle Trachtenberg (Dawn) this week it hit home hard too, much more than I expected. I could not believe what I was reading and cried hard. Buffy is my absolute favorite series of all time and its so much fun to watch it and when its emotional, its unreal how real it can feel.
