On the one hand, I’m giggling and savoring the skadegladje (Swedish for schadenfreude and yes I’m trying to make it a thing).

Oh, Colorado Springs.

I do not understand why anyone would not understand this. She was going to die a horrible, painful, disgusting death anyway, with her unbirthable child decaying in her birth canal, halfway out her cervix. Death by fire might almost be a relief.

Seriously. I’m 55 and I would kill to look like the new Alicent.

Thank you for this. It sums up how I feel about the show.

Bruce Castor. Hm.

I know I should care about this because “death penalty bad”, but I can’t bring any sincere upset to this. Not for him. Judge me.

I asked this of another commenter too: how do you keep the used, wet washcloths from growing mold and mildew before you get them into the laundry? Do you just toss them in the hamper with a devil-may-care attitude and let them sit for a week till you run your laundry?

My one question with that is, where do you put the wet, just-used washcloths before you get them into the laundry? Are they sitting in a covered hamper growing mildew for several days before you run your laundry load? Do you hang them up on a different rack to give them a chance to dry out?

Let’s say it was the black kids who had the unweighted GPA and were kicking up a fuss. How would the community have reacted? How would the administration have responded? Can you imagine the resistance to claiming parity? Do you think the black kids would be celebrated and honored and recognized the way these white…

But even using the original GPA calculation, they couldn’t crown a white student. They had to give her a boost with some late grade additions. They’ll move any goalpost in service of white supremacy.

I just posted this above but I’ll say it again. Suppose it was the black kids with the unweighted average? What would the community reaction be? What would the administration’s reaction be?

Can you imagine the white tears if it was the black kids with the unweighted GPAs? Assuming that the administration would even make them co-xxxtorians? Gawd.

“Fractured” would imply that the USA was ever whole on this point. But yes.

When we actually GET to or even approach the point where black people are controlling the majority of wealth in this country, dominate the media, dominate the leadership of businesses, outpace white people in income, etc, then you can start worrying. Right now you’re just saying “won’t someone think of the white…

That would make sense for your examples. My cat is usually never more than a ten-minute walk away, but I can’t count on him being in the same place at the same time every day. However I think the device also conserves energy if it’s within bluetooth range of my phone, and since I work from home, that is helpful.

Well, it does reduce the frequency of pings if the tracked object or creature stays in the same trusted area for long enough, (although I don’t think the interval has ever dropped to one hour—that would make it useless to me).

The Vulture recap at least gets the names right.

The scenes from next week show the chief reinstating her and putting her back on Erin’s case, so ...

Tangential point: I have a Jiobit for my wandering cat and if I didn’t set up Trusted Places, that sucker (the Jiobit) would be dead in 12 hours. Even with Trusted Places, I have to recharge it every two days or so, much to my orange monster’s annoyance.
