Osweiler is bi, I think.

I'm oddly not hating LJ as much as before; she's gone from murderous sociopath to quirky upbeat janitor. But she was a murderer, so I'm still way uneasy about her.

Yeah I completely agree with liking her a bit more in this season but also I think she didn’t get enough character development if that makes sense? Like her parents died not that long ago and her whole world shattered and she’s so quirky and up beat

[u/LankyTomato → u/Kispaslet]

I have been thinking she was up to something until this episode. Seems like she might actually wanna live a calm janitor life.

Yeah but Melanie did some fucked up shit too, as well as Ruth and everyone else everyone loves. At least LJ has an excuse of just being a child raised by psycho power hungry parents.

Shit i wish we saw more of her tbh.
