I guess (xp). Like I heard Dunham on Fresh Air, in what I think was a repeat, and she distinguished herself from Hannah Horvath by pointing out that while Hannah's parents give her money and then eventually cut her off, her parents never gave her money to live in the city, they made her live at home (IN THEIR AWESOME LOFT IN THE CITY). I guess I can't entirely blame her for trying to come up with some weird, defensive narrative about the whole thing, since here I am scrutinizing her for her upbringing. I just wish she had a more realistic understanding of what it meant for her.

Childish Gambino poisons my enjoyment of anything Donald Glover does now. Those two moments and Marnie w/ her ex-boss were as close as I got to a chuckle from the entire episode.

― an eagle named "small government" (call all destroyer), Tuesday, 15 January 2013 05:05 (eleven years ago) link
i hope next week springs back into like none-too-universalised but generationally-applicable shit-happening-to-some-girls territory. mining the ~emotional landscape~ created by everyone's situations is pretty dry. like ex-boyfriends. i worried a lil about the writing, too. like hannah's parents were so creatively drawn, & marnie's mom seems like such an obvious stock go-to destination (in spite of killer lines, ie rough hands), it could wade into real uninteresting areas, as if what was smart about it was the webs it wove rather than just what happens. this was a p awkward ep but i feel like it would be interesting to look back on later; most all of hannah's speech was sorta super & deeply heartbreaking & smart to me, but none of it was really effective in the episode.
also i know there is a big ~fountainhead reveal~ coming but it's p weird that no characer detail was bestowed upon donald glover beyond a) african american & b) donald glover.

Miranda July interview Lena Dunham while feeding her baby = most precious purgative ever
― space phwoar (Hurting 2), Sunday, 20 January 2013 21:22 (eleven years ago) link
I never realized until recently how much of making work for me was also based in making the people around me understand that I got it. Sometimes when I make things, it's because I want my parents to see that I know what a pain I've been. I just want them to see it and feel that I know. It's not necessarily even wanting them to know that I'm sorry—just that I'm in on it, so don't think I'm not. Or, for example, with a guy who I've slept with, I'll think, "You're going to see my movie and you're going to understand that I was out-thinking you the entire time and you didn't even know it." Of course, that's not how anybody perceives your work...I don't know if you've ever had that fantasy.
v interesting quote imo, re: her kinda generationally-self-loathing output. the focus on her self-recognition alongside her more general caricaturing is v salient.

On the first couple of episodes I really, really hated this show but gave it a chance and have really warmed to it and have caught up. UK'ing it so not got the second episode of Series 2 yet. Buuut what I like about it, even though the life experiences in this show are very different from mine is that that 20's year old superconfidence + superinsecurity thing = social fuck up is universal. At the same time I wouldn't defend the show too much as I realise the faults in it and I could easily despise it.
