Shout out to Jia Tolentino for contextualizing Gilbert as a phenomenon, this was a great review
the “i’m sorry i tried to murder you” exchange lmao
Wait the whhhhhaaaat exchange?
Wait what Zomg
important to know that, according to Liz, Rayya thought it was extremely metal that Liz tried to murder her
And that Rayya had been refusing to let Liz sleep, a thing which is considered genuine torture and has known violent mental effects
he is not exaggerating
What a terrible week to know how to read
Ok I stand corrected on both counts I guess

I also want to make it clear that even setting aside the literal attempted murder, basically everything Gilbert did here was fucking awful and I am not defending her one iota. I simply want to make sure people understand that this isn't her dumping her girlfriend for having terminal cancer.
Right. She may be absolutely horrific, but she’s no Newt Gingrich
It's tragic all over but I couldn't help being amused at "setting aside the literal attempted murder."
She sounds dangerous and crazy.
Lest we forget the cancer riddled lesbian partner was also fucking insane.
