I did crossfit for a while. I quit that and jiu jitsu. I just realized that sports where you can’t take time off without significant backsliding aren’t for me. Gives me anxiety. Anyway, the two tend to not get along, and while there were some fantastic people in both, I encountered a lot of this thought that extreme…

They genuinely believe that if bad things happen to you (you’re poor, sick, disabled), it’s because you’re a bad person. If bad things happen to them it's someone else's fault.

I know people who think like this and it blows my mind and is also a little victim blame-y? Like the millions of Americans who got sick from this virus just weren’t living right, not like you. You healthy, special person with your fantastic immune system from living your correct lifestyle.

I’m happy for her (seriously, love gets harder to find the older you get) I’m just waiting on the last season of “Claws” to debut.

Eh, think I’d not really be down with people posting pics of me from high school without my consent, being that I was a super awkward teen and all. People have complicated relationships with their high school selves and what might look like a perfectly nice photo to an outsider might trigger a lot of painful feelings…

Maybe “The Ruins”? It’s a horror movie with an interesting premise and okay execution that I watched a few years ago. From what I remember, his character was a standard heroic guy in a horror movie type without any quirky traits.

He’s always great in everything I’ve seen him in, he really does just bring a different sort of energy to a show.

My husband and I bought a house before we got married. In that first year we put a lot of sweat equity into the house. You learn a lot about someone when you’re trimming trees, pulling up dilapidated fences, planting a garden, hauling trash, etc. I think it’s a great way to prepare a couple for a lifetime together.

Agreed!

Any of the ladies from the cast of Kath & Kim, Essie Davis, Miranda Otto, or Toni Collette.

I know she’s young, but Bindi has truly seemed to have her shit together forever. I think her mom did a decent job protecting both the kids after Steve’s death, even though they were still on TV. I say all that to say, I got a little teary that she’s a mom now and because that is just an amazing name.  I wish all the…

This is what happens when Prince Albert is allowed out of the can.

Heh I’d never leave my kid with my skinny sister.

I wonder: what will happen to your husband’s self worth and world view if he’s in an accident or becomes ill, and permanently gains weight?

One of my friends from college had an eating disorder. She told me one day, very matter-of-factly, that her father would call her fat/make comments about her weight.

A man once told me that he would divorce me if I got fat. I am no longer with that man.

.... I don't know if you know this but... like... Dinklage is a very good and largely well-respected actor. "15 minutes of fame"?

My favorite was Death of Stalin. 

I’ve never worked with him, but he came to our city to do reshoots on a MI and many many friends I have did work with him. He learned everyone’s names, said hello to everyone in the morning, and was happy to take pics with everyone. He was, according to my colleagues, a great, hardworking guy. Whether he’s in a cult…

I wish Death of Stalin had come up here, because I’d love to know how she approached that material/being part of that ensemble from a tonal perspective.
