I know that the byzantine web of schemes and counter schemes make GOT interesting, but it is nice to occasionally have somethings wrapped up, at the very least to reduce the number of loose plot threads and hopefully focus the main plot more

yes

Hasan does have that righteous anger, that element of Jon Stewart that said things were not alright and America needs t be held to a higher standard. I appreciate the pain he feels when his world and society do not live up to his expectations and the standards we have obstinately have said we live by

A thousand times yes. The reinterpretation of GWB as an alright guy is crazy, man created an unnecessary war in Iraq that has made the US weaker and cost it billions, not to mention the lives it wasted. Also his government oversaw the policies leading to a global recession

give into your interest in religious minutiae, attempt to a friend in a topic almost no one knows or cars about, start a sentence with "the interesting thing about this ecumenical council…" or "Montanism was a…."

It can be two things

Midnight in Paris is a very interesting subversion of the trope. I liek the idea it puts foward that looking for the "simpler time" is really just an indicator that you are unhappy with your current life and the only way out is to take real, tangible steps to change your life in the present. O nthe other hand…

I love the books ending as well. I always interpreted the final chapter as reflecting how in times of great upheaval and crisis a lot of information is destroyed and remains unknown. a And also how awful it is to not know what is going to happen next, putting us in Offred's shoes. I think it also was a lot about…

I think this point is not brought up enough. If Chuck had true brotherly love for Jimmy in his heart then Chuck could either support Jimmy's law career and watch him to keep Jimmy on the straight and narrow. Chuck could also be upfront with Jimmy about his concerns and go about stopping Jimmy from getting into law…

season 2 is so much better upon rewatch, you can't hate ziggy the way you did the first time around. neither his father nor cousin can see that if they gave him a little respect and let him feel as though he has some dignity he would be such an idiot. that being said zig is an idiot

its a metric true but not good 100%

Get the fuck out of here James Polk

At a mosque in Quebec city a man named Alexandre Bissonnette shoot and killed 6 people and injured 19 more. In the investigation acquaintances have said that he supported Trump and Marine La Pen as well as having far right and white nationalist political positions.

It is called Canada and I hear the federal government is looking for some fresh faced migrants to start building a ice wall along the 49th parallel

The Trotsky is a great movie

just so you know, here in Canada the queen has basically no impact on our lives for the following reasons:
1. She is almost never in the country, like almost never.
2. She doesn't actually fulfill any constitutional duties, we have a thing called the governor general who does that for her.
3. The last time a governor…

Yes Yes Mr. Majestyk, of course it is silly to expend mental energy for well over a decade to hate some terrible movies. But I think you may find that if you allow that hatred, that anger, that fear of everything you once loved becoming tainted by some dipshit little boy and a frog/lizard/mistral-show/piece of shit,…

world war 1, spanish flu, an enduring sense of death despair and meaningless

i always interpretted milkshake as overall sex appeal and/or vagina

Slim Charles is a top notch side character. I'd like to enter this exhibit in to the court of AV Club public opinion as evidence,
