Texas made a bet that electricity there would be cheaper due to reasonably temperate weather and that they didn’t want to pay the costs associated with being on the national grid. They also didn’t want to pay the costs associated with keeping up maintenance on their grid-making another bet that moderate temperatures…

Hmmm, I wouldn’t say sympathetic and nor do I view them as any kind of Robin Hood, topsy-turvy or no. I am fascinated by people who bought into their own line of bull and when they actually realized that it was bull-and kept doing it anyway. Kalanick doesn’t fall into this since his company is working, but I am here…

And the energy is cheap because they’re off the national grid! How well did that work out for them?

Exactly. The pointy-boob jacket and that eye makeup are better than this? Really?

It’s nice seeing Seyfried come into her own. She was great in Mank and it looks like she’s nailing this.

I was sincerely hoping this movie was based on the Jack McDevitt book of the same title, which was hugely entertaining but no such luck.

All I can say is that this was amazing. That routine was stunning.

Phyllis Schlafly made it okay to go out to work and have your job be telling other women to stay home.

It’s near Sokovia, right?

“Asian women are massively privileged in the dating world”. Just change that to “women are privileged in the dating world”, because that is how the guys who are into MRA view women. 

Did you really say that you have no options but to date Asian women? I have a good friend who is a white woman, dating an Asian man.

Awww-no one is using his title. How does it feel, Oz? People have been doing that to women for years.

I remember Waitress and I think about her murder at least once a week, because the suicide/no it’s murder happened relatively quickly and it was so tragic that a life that had so much to look forward to was cut short. I don’t know why I think about her so often-it just makes me sad that it ended this way.

FYI Everyone in my family loves pavlova. My sister and I baked them endlessly during lock down, trying to make the perfect one. And we made lemon curd and raspberry sauce to go with it. I know not everyone likes them, but I feel the need to defend them.

I hadn’t really read a lot of horror (unless you count all those Alfred Hitchcock anthologies I read as a kid, some of which were pretty chilling-The Man From the South, anyone? and a bunch of Stephen King) and then I read The Keep. And there it was. I still love that book but I haven’t decided even now how I feel…

The Shining absolutely terrified me. I’d read King before and loved the horror, but The Shining-I had to give it to my sister and tell her I wanted it out of the house. I was 14.  I will not reread but-but I read Dr Sleep when it came out and I loved it.

Oh sure. For the man she loves (and who is rich) she’ll give up modern menstrual products, no antibiotics and wearing a corset no matter what. No modern dentistry, no modern ophthalmology, this is a time when doctors had really just started washing their hands regularly and women died in childbirth.…

More hits than misses. And even when he didn’t seem to care that much, he was still interesting.

I’m not sure this isn’t a false flag op. I’m sure there are women out there who think like this-but do they need this advice? And this advice sounds purely like how men like this think women think. Honestly, who strategizes this much? I’m sure there are people who do but this sounds exhausting-I got tired just reading…

Yes, do it at the beginning so everyone can nope out of there!
