Yeah, I think that about sums it up. No! Public! Pissing! Allowed!

Have we located Themyscira yet or???
It’s definitely hard work. You might hate it. But you might love it! If you’re interested in books that give a middle-finger to how books are supposed to be, physically and content-wise, then it’s fun to just experience something so new and different. And also it gets to be a creepy mind-fuck of a story.
I feel like I’m still not getting this. Older men with prostrate issues are certainly not the only people with bladder issues. Think of pregnant women, older women with bladder issues, your average woman who just shotgunned three drinks in a row. If they make it work, why can’t the men-at-large who seem to be fine…
Also, what is the breastfeeding culture like in Paris? Are women allowed to breastfeed uncovered? Do they get harassed if they do that?
Seemingly we women have navigated around this issue by: 1. Asking politely at all businesses that may have a bathroom, or 2. buying cheap, non-liquid items from businesses where you have to buy something to use the bathroom. You can have that advice for free!
Would be really curious to see what would happen if women started using these en masse somehow.
For real, what is it about women that we can find alternative solutions to peeing in public? Or is the distinction that we’re willing to find alternative solutions? (“Alternative solutions” here meaning asking to use a bathroom at a business or you know just holding your fucking pee)
When Esquire posted about this on Facebook, I asked from a place of genuine confusion why peeing in public was something so rampant among men, when women apparently don’t need to do that. (Obviously we avoid it because it’s a pain in the ass, and icky, but the fact that we avoid it means men can too.) No responses…
This wasn’t a literal suggestion—I’m not stupid. Just some nice wish fulfillment that these pedophiles and the international organization that fosters them could be deleted off the face of the earth.
Dismantle the Catholic church.
A lot of the issue with this show’s fat suit (and most if not all fat suits on tv/in movies) is that the ONLY time the actor is shown as fat, they’re the butt of a joke. How disgusting they are! How pathetic! They’re never shown just being a regular person living their lives in a way that establishes backstory or…
There’s an issue here about knowing your target demographic...
My guess so far is that Henry was sort of a first try at the whole “imprison the devil” ploy, they just got the wrong kid. And maybe Lacey (or the DeJardine guy, or whoever) was helped out by Henry’s dad, who was in reality not such a good person? I really don’t have anything terribly solid to base this hunch off of,…
It made a lot of money and got really good reviews (at the very least, for a horror movie) so yeah, it’s fair to call it excellent. Especially considered to past Stephen King adaptations.
To be honest, it’s probably cgi. Too much money/time to spend building that extreme a set for a shot that only lasts a few seconds.
Correction (someone else has probably already pointed this out): “Jackie is related to the characters from The Shining and was named after her uncle, tortured, alcoholic author Jack Torrance. (Though on which side? Wasn’t a big part of The Shining how both Jack and Wendy were both alienated from their respective…
That was a great scene, and I feel like it’s the core of what Stephen King’s writing is all about: evil as a sickness that’s spread by one ancient thing.
I thought Jackie pulled out a switchblade from under the pillow--am I wrong?
Probably on purpose, to show how not in his life Henry is—to the point where Henry’s not really thinking about him from to day. Draw parallels that relationship and Henry’s relationship with his dad as you like.
