i feel like we don’t talk enough abt the fact that one day at a time is the only tv show (that i know of) that featured characters with neopronouns. and everything was cool. in 2018

Hi where can I get a group of people in real life and not a thousand miles away who will respect my pronouns regardless of what I wear, how long my hair is, etc like the Alvarez’s (including Schneider, obviously) did for Syd?

EDDIE DIAZ vs. PENELOPE ALVAREZ + breaking generational cycles — 911 5x14 || One Day At A Time 3x09
(for @diazchristopher)
[Image ID: eight gifs arranged in a parallel set to alternate with each other. Four gifs are of Eddie Diaz and Christopher Diaz from 911 episode 5.14. The other four gifs are of Penelope Alvarez, Elena Alvarez and Alex Alvarez sitting on their couch from One Day At A Time:
GIF 1: A close side-profile shot of Eddie pausing, then looking up from chopping vegetables as he sighs at Christopher's words. The text reads, "[Are you okay?] Yeah, I'm... [You seem sad.]"
GIF 2: Penelope holding Elena and Alex's knees as she talks to them. Her expression is slightly pensive, but determined. The text reads, "You both know what anxiety and depression are, right? Well, I have that."
GIF 3: Eddie pulling a chair to sit close to Chris, looking at him seriously, his expression open. The text reads, "You know I've been talking to Frank, right? The way you talk to Dr. Lim."
GIF 4: Alex looking sadly at Penelope as he asks, "Are you okay? Are you not happy?" Penelope grips her son's knee tightly and shakes her head quickly as if to refute his words.
GIF 5: Eddie looking away from Chris' eyes as he talks. The text reads, "Sometimes it's hard. Frank asks a lot of questions. And you know, talking about things that are scary or sad can be...exhausting."
GIF 6: Penelope shaking her head as she talks in Alex's direction. The text reads, "Oh honey, it has nothing to do with unhappiness. It's a chemical imbalance and it runs in our family. And it's nothing to be ashamed of."
GIF 7: Eddie explaining to Chris as he nods to emphasize his words. The text reads, "But [therapy is] still a good thing to do, so I'm gonna keep talking to Frank, and eventually I will feel better." He lightly brushes his fingers against Chris' chin affectionately.
GIF 8: Penelope explaining to her kids that "Even though I'm ashamed of it. But that's something I'm trying to end with me, 'cause I'm fine now. And you're gonna be fine too." She turns to talk in Elena's direction, still holding their knees.

I'm watching One Day at a Time rn (the episode where Lydia ends up in a hospital) and HOLY FUCK Justina Machado is such a good fucking actor? Penelope's monologue is an example of good acting, it's breathtaking and magnificent, I forgot this was a show with actors and not real life. This is just an appreciation post for her and her acting, idk what else to say.

Alex, in a high voice, holding Barbie: Hey, Ken! I was thinking about going back to school and starting a career!
Elena, in a deep voice, holding Ken: Nonsense, Barbie. You’re staying home and having my kids.
Penelope: What are you guys doing?
Elena: Playing systemic oppression.
