Thank you so much for this info. I can't believe I regurgitated the Plan B misinformation when I really DO know better! Propaganda is a helluva drug, I guess.

Mom of daughters speaking, here: couldn't my OB-GYN prescribe Plan B for my daughter (or hell, for ME if we couldn't afford to pay for the office visit and RX)? And can't kids be on their parents insurance until they're 26, now?

I just really have to hand it to Caitriona Balfe. I am truly convinced that Claire loves Frank and Jamie, and I really wasn't in the book (of course, I couldn't have cared less about it, either, because HOT JAMIE!).

Same point, really: she doesn't want to name them because there would be damaging political effects for her. If they were Republicans, there still might be repercussions, but not the same degree or nature.

The same thing happens for women in any workplace! You can't speak up when someone harasses you because they are…

I'm guessing that it's a combination of both, in that if she named one, she'd be criticized if she didn't name them all. Some of them may still be serving or are her political allies back home in NY. I don't think her fear of career repercussions in general is unfounded, and it just shows that we haven't made any…

She's not "accusing" him- she's repeating something he said to her in the context of describing an atmosphere in the highest legislative power in the country! She's not trying to sue him for sexual harassment.

His incidents of inexcusable behavior weren't limited to his old age, though. I'd say his disregard for women was a character flaw that was easy to hide or excuse in the first half of the twentieth century, but then became more and more visible as the culture shifted. He was shielded from the consequences his behavior…

You need to have lots of space and be REALLY good friends. One year, Batman picked up Dracula (chair and all) and nearly threw him across the room to dislodge him.

AHHHH! I love you for this!!!!

AWESOME. The expression really sells it!

Or we could make it even easier (but it might get chilly).

That's awesome! I think we'd end up disheveled anyway, as our friends are into full body contact musical chairs...

I'm kinda digging the Macbeth one, since I have a long spooky robe I could wear for Lady M. (and maybe not have to spend much money). Blood on the hands is cheap enough... KY + red food coloring?

In theory, it seems like I could just find a floor-length plaid skirt and maybe improvise that weird roll they tie around their waists under their skirts, and the fichu's not difficult (it would give me an excuse to get one of those crocheted ones from Etsy!). The difficult bit would be the bodice. Those seem…

He teaches girls to step lightly, right?

That. Is. Awesome.

Dude and Walter could totally work! Mr. Dotty could definitely rock a Walter vibe, and I could wear pajama bottoms- everybody wins! That would be a pretty easy one, too, if I could find somebody with a bowling ball they'd let me borrow!

Nobody wants to see me and the mister sluttin' around, trust me. We're more like Ralph and Alice Kramden (but I can't do that with all the DV stuff going on).

I had hoped to do Claire and Jamie from "Outlander," but I don't have much hope for that. It's not so hard or expensive to find a shirt and kilt for him, but where would I find an eighteenth century tartan dress? It would cost a fortune to rent or to get one made, even if I could get it by Halloween.
