“I’m just a woman who’s over it.”

NEW LIFE MOTTO. 

you should watch enlightened →

i made my piece on the show free today in honor of this fact

I really don’t wanna go back to being nothing. I mean, do you?

— Amy to Tyler, Enlightened s2:e1 (via bobbyfinger)

Enlightened is back tonight, and this scene is always relevant.

ooooh.

Honestly, without sounding righteous—I’m not trying to ennoble what I do necessarily, but there is a part of you that feels like if you see things in the culture that you don’t like, as a creator that there’s opportunity at least to be the antidote. One thing about the show that is probably why it has a limited audience is that it’s trying to be more reflective and quiet and contemplative. Some of the values and the characters that it’s exploring I think are ones that I find often in popular culture to be dismissed.

So is that kind of woman, particularly—and I don’t think it’s a coincidence that [Amy] is a woman—who’s more about her sincerity and her mission and her nagginess, and all of those things make people say, ‘Oh, I don’t like that.’ Well, these are the people that do clean up the messes that like these. It’s like, Who goes in and fixes that school?
