"...high heels and backwards", eh? More power to you. I admire your adaptability.

I'd love to see your take on any of the points I made...what do you think of the 3rd paragraph above?

My ideal writers' room scenario would be 9 writers of either gender that form a sort of Voltron Writer with laser beam eyes and mastery of the story arc.

Am I the only one who thinks Kim looks great? She looks like a very pretty pregnant woman.

Me too. Let's hear it for clip art that stigmatizes a completely normal, healthy body shape.

It's hard to say because as things have gotten worse, I've gradually started talking about it even in places like this, and the silence is deafening. I have no way of knowing for sure but assume that it's ignorable because seen as a tacky quest for attention at the expense of the good people who are just here to…

Thank you. Yes.

Oh. Geez. Yeah. Thanks.

Curiosity. It's (probably) not what I would've done, so I asked questions to better understand a different perspective. Or something.

Pardon?
