Interesting that they appear to see the helicopter circling above them *before* attempting séance 2.0. Maybe the rain/storm comes and interferes so they turn to desperate measures, trying to contact Jackie/the dead as proxies so they can plead with the wilderness to let them go
Mr Taylor is totally taking Jeff aside during/just after the wedding reception and offering to sell him his furniture store (or at least a branch of their franchise) now that he’s ’part of the family’ (because he and Mrs Taylor are living Jackie’s life vicariously through Shauna)
Yes Mrs Taylor is a woman of refinement but there’s something about how much this looks like a high school prom that makes me feel like Jackie’s parents would totally want to make it all about their dead teenage daughter despite this being a wedding between two twenty-somethings
If that’s the case those of us with the ‘pink was never Jackie’s favourite colour it was just another part of the pretence’ reading will feel so vindicated (already do from this alone tbh - Shauna’s stepping right into Jackie’s facade with this wedding) 🙏

Oh I just know the Taissa/Mel hostility is going to make so much more sense after this season god I'm so fucking excitedddddddddddddd
The way these two shots are ordered almost suggests Van wistfully imagining this because in reality she and Tai have drifted apart… 💔

comments like this are sooo funny to me cause ofc u don't have to like travis as a character or find him interesting but acting like he's the villian and represents the privileged majority is crazy. yj literally flips gender dynamics on its head and travis is a victim CAUSE of--
I hope my Yellowjackets fandom legacy will be the existence of Chuck the friendly wolf, Jackie’s wilderness guardian/sensei/babysitter. It just feels right. I don’t think I can top ‘Yellowjackets does role-reversed The Call of the Wild’

btw on the prayer card in the pilot there's an angel welcoming a human figure into the divine realm. and in the original painting, the angel leads humanity through the darkness/the biblical wilderness. the show repeatedly implies Jackie as some kind of guardian angel ("guide us")

Won't get into it too much because that's what the vid was for lmao. but I just wanted to make a thread on my favourite visual nods to the RWS major arcana in the show (there are more in the Thoth & minor arcana —as you can see on the thumbnail, Pit Girl x The 10 of Swords)
Well... I can't believe I'm actually done, but it's finally video essay day. And of course, totally by coincidence, it ends up being today. Just in time for Jackie's birthday tomorrow. Happy All Souls !

what I love about this is maybe both of these things are true, and it exposes both of their insecurities.
this rly is the highest compliment Jackie could give, and yet for Nat it'll cut deep because she DOES care. she wants to admired & relied on as she perceives Jackie to be
Ruth retweeted
I strongly disagree, I actually think this is one of the highest compliments Jackie gives any of them. She is terrified of what other people think of her to the point shes shoved herself into a prison of expectations that is poisoning everhthing she actually cares about.

I genuinely hadn't even seen this tweet until today but I say practically the same thing word for word in the video essay. Ruth and I always just

Also Akilah being given this role of immense amount of pressure but receiving little recognition for it is not really surprising when you consider the reality of her being a dark skinned teenager and the adultification of black children particularly during that period…
