After watching GLOW and the documentary about the real Glamorous Ladies of Wrestling, my respect for wrestlers has increased by magnitudes. Performance art + hard work for no benefits or retirement despite your job seriously f’ng up your body.

Wow, this is the first reboot sequel of an old property that actually makes sense to me and the CW is the perfect home for it.

non-partisan, non-conformist and open-minded culture club

It’s not as if she couldn’t afford a therapist to help her through her issues regarding motherhood. Or pay for personal college counseling services for their daughter if they felt that was needed. She deserves to serve time, as does Macy.

It’s been very interesting to see which scholars publicly reacted, and how. (Also which ones said nothing.) I’ve been deeply disappointed that so many well-established people who are definitely in a position to get funded elsewhere either defended Ito or kept mum. The dependence on wealthy donors by academia and…

And I can’t recall the last 120+ min movie that actually made good use of all that time.

That name sounds like it’s real meat products being marketed as fake-meat products, so it’s a bad-branding vote from me.

I think we could use more platonic love stories. This sounds promising.

Another stand-out moment I recall is when Frannie (or is it Harold?) listen to her portable record player. “Don’t Dream It’s Over” was a great choice.

Get Boots Riley to adapt The Running Man

I mean, I’m an atheist, but that took me to church and made me happy that I went.

Also: Xena was so much better than Hercules.

No lie: the first night I arrived in Harvard Square, all alone, not knowing anyone on the East Coast, I went out for a walk and randomly noticed the Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe window and it felt like a f’ng benediction and good omen of things to come. (And it was.) If I’d been wearing a hat, I would have pulled a Mary…

I AGREE. I’m usually in love with most of the bakers by now, but I can barely remember any of them. It also looks less diverse on a few variables than the last many seasons.

I was so happy to see this back, but it...didn’t quite hit the mark for me? Maybe because this is the first time I can’t binge a whole season, but I’m not quite feeling it.

Mass shooters and slave holders (white supremacists today) aren’t just villain protagonists, however: each speaks to a very real, very current, very dangerous group(s)* of people currently being more active. They don’t need more airtime: they’re already getting too many headlines.

I have a gut feeling a big swath of audience would be fine with seeing naturally aging actors if Hollywood would put them on screen.

Hormonal birth control does a major number on me and I just can’t do it and be a functional person. This could be such a great option for couples in similar situations to at least give a shot and see how it goes.

It’s a shame because the idea that this role could exist as a highly respected profession was interesting and there’s a lot you could explore. I imagine they’d also function as unofficial diplomats and mediators. We see a little of that with Inara. Mal’s low-key slut-shaming of Inara always bugged me though. I guess…

MTM remains one of the few shows my parents and I both enjoy. My mom wanted to be Mary (she even sported her signature flip through the early 80's), but me, I’ve always thought I’d be pretty satisfied if I could be Rhoda with her ability to laugh at bad situations and masterful self-depreciating wit.
