Thank you for this, truly. I unsuccessfully tried to explain this to my crazy Aunt, but I think if I had given her this article, something might actually have sunk in.

Yeah, chiropractors don’t have to go to actual medical school and cover the basics like all MDs do before they choose a specialty. I was once arguing with a friend that chiropractors aren’t REAL doctors and I finally said, OK, if you were in labour in an emergency situation, who would you rather have on hand to…

All of Black Mirror’s episodes are incredibly dark and bleak and subversive. San Junipero is the only won with a glorious, happy ending.

Carrie Coon deserved to win, and not for Fargo, but for The Leftovers. Elisabeth Moss is better in Top of the Lake 1 and 2, and was better on Mad Men than in The Handmaid’s Tale.

I would prefer ANY ending to Jon and Dany getting married and ruling together.

THIS. Her body, her choice, for whatever reason. It’s nobody’s business to judge a woman for having a c-section by choice or necessity, full stop.

I’ve met him a couple times and a friend has, too. He’s super normal and friendly (and smells nice).

I thought Alice Englert was just cringe-worthy awful and judging by the press appearances, she seems to have only one facial expressions, which is the same UGH I HATE YOU MOM face she makes for the entire series. OTOH, I think it’s still totally worth watching for Elisabeth Moss and Gwendoline Christie. I think Moss…

Hey, now. It was Mos Eisley that was the wretched hive of scum and villainy.

I think he’s drawn to law enforcement to control his own violent impulses. Like when he nearly beats Alma’s father to death and later delivers him to the visiting military to keep him under protection from himself. I couldn’t find a clip of that, but the beating’s always worth a watch for the simmering rage Timothy…

Yup, that’s the one.

The only impression I can legit do is James Mason. And I’m a woman. :(

David Milch said the basic premise of Deadwood was a good man trying to be bad (Swearengen) and a bad man trying to be good (Bullock).

I literally have a paragraph of Swearengen’s philosophy tattooed on my side. Getting text straight on a curved body part is a tattooist’s nightmare, I found out. Nothing was as brilliantly written as Deadwood. To find anything that rivals the sheer density of meaning in the dialogue, you’d have to go back to…

Sansa said more than once and before his execution that Littlefinger “sold” her to the Boltons, which drives me crazy. He didn’t sell her, or exchange her for anything. He talked her into doing it herself. His motive was that he wanted Sansa in Winterfell and ultimately thought the Boltons would lose a war with…

Bran is a kind of shitty deus ex machina who whips out the receipts when it suits the plot and stares at a tree when it doesn’t. Not a Bran fan.

Agreed. This death was foreshadowed to the point of ridiculousness (oh, another shot of the dagger? Whatever could that mean??) and Littlefinger was written into a corner when they left him at Winterfell with very little game left to play. The smartest man in Westeros earned a better death than one so shittily…

I thought this from Vice was pretty good, too.

I actually witnessed parents putting their infant in DO NOT TOUCH display for a photo at the American Museum of Natural History. They got ripped a new one by security and the stink eye from everyone around.

I WISH!
