I’ve done three episodes, don’t understand why he’s falling for such a sob story, why he did dating a trans website, why he’s not informing the police after the carpet bombing of emails and in person stalking.

Maybe there have been a couple foreshadowed questions from a couple characters, alluding to abuse or serious trauma as a child. But the fat lady is clearly insane and potentially violent.

None.

He brought it all on himself.

He likely had untreated mental disorders and never should have moved far from help.

The show would be better if they did a deep dive into Martha’s upbringing and background. How did she end up so messed up and ruin ne career as a lawyer

Spinoff

It’s a movie about a confused, mentally ill, queer guy. Full stop.

Martha is just a tangential and sometimes parallel plotline.

Bizarre that anyone involved thought they’d keep her and her true identity out. She’s a disabled obese psychopath who hangs out online all day and night.

+1

It doesn’t glorify the life of drugs, sex, and entertainment but it certainly stays on that lifestyle.

This.

Shall see how he does in life, drugs, and sex now that he’s also famous and rich.

Outed the woman with mental health issues he claims to have empathy for, and revealing and reliving for the world to see his most personal violations…that he, in a twisted way, opened himself to due to his desperation for fame. Serious mental health issues all around. He’s disgusting, and the show is depressing.

Totally agree - I hated it. I hate that our society craves these types of stories/shows and gives a platform to things like this. These people obviously need help, and getting thrust into the limelight is NOT the help they need. It's gross. Everyone is just out here trying to out-trauma the next person.

HAS mental disorders.

Weird he confesses all kinds of gross unhealthy stuff in his adult life but doesn’t touch on any mental disorders, diagnoses, therapy, or treatment plans.

If wants to be a hero to the sexually abused Queer community he should start addressing that in his interviews.

If he wants to continue his wreckless lifestyle, now with more money, he can continue to say nothing about mental health.

High likelihood he goes another sex and drugs bender and dies at a young age.

Did anyone watch the piers morgan interview? I didn't watch it in full, but read some articles about it later.

Sounds like she cannot keep her story straight, people found a lot of direct contradictions/lies in what she said. Said she's only ever sent him 10 emails, but has 6 email addresses and 4 different phones.

A trans actress came forward and said he's known to hit on trans women by saying he'll cast them in a Netflix show. I think this was too soon for him to try to move on and capitalize on this experience. He seems to be still unhealed.

And yet she wasn't deserving of such a show without warning or compensation. The rest of the show was lies. I hope she gets good legal counsel.

No. Don’t care. She was a side story in the show but does illustrate how F d broken people attract one another. Like an addiction.

Cool, bust out the drugs and new English basement apartment tryouts scene.

Where can I capitalize on the growing demand for PrEP? Is a public company behind it?
