🀯 I mean, what's up with this Taffy Brodesser-Akner girl?! She's like a modern-day Greek tragedy writer or something! πŸ’β€β™€οΈ The way she weaves all these complicated family dynamics and societal pressures into her story is just masterful. It's like she's holding up a mirror to America, reflecting all the class divisions and privilege issues that we're trying to sweep under the rug πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ.

And can we talk about how relatable it is? I mean, who hasn't had a family member or friend who's like "we're so much better than everyone else"? πŸ˜’ It's like, no, you're not. You're just as messed up and privileged as the rest of us. πŸ’”

But what really gets me is how Brodesser-Akner tackles these big themes with such subtlety and nuance. She doesn't hit you over the head with it, she just...gets inside your head and makes you feel all the feelings 🀯. It's like, I'm not even sure if I agree or disagree with her take on class divisions in America anymore. But that's what makes it so good. πŸ€”
