At the opening of Mid90s, the main character, Stevie, who I may or may not refer to in the rest of this review as Lil Stevie, is at the age (13ish) when many of us wake to how fucked our families are. It’s part of puberty, right? We start to see the signs and begin testing the waters a bit, acting out, until we’re full-on fuck it, prioritizing our friends over everything else. I think there’s a tendency at this age to see our friends as the ones with all the answers - the ones helping us figure out who we are or want to be.
