I assumed it was obvious that I have not and will not see this show. I have strong moral objections to its existence, made stronger by the tone deaf rationale in this article. Compounding that is the fact that if I did watch it I would likely relapse.
The cheeky answer to your question is that no one actually manages

You can't use one thing not happening as proof that a larger trend doesn't occur. So people didn't kill themselves after Cobain died? 200 people killed themselves after Monroe did. Suicide clusters tend to be more localized, anyway. This is why obituaries tend to not list suicide as the cause of death: because people

Dude, the showrunner specifically said it was to help suicidal teens. You have two former suicidal teens right here telling you this would have been horrific for us, as well as a professional saying that this wasn't the best move.

Because they will copy it? Because Hannah has been getting a whole lot of attention for it. Every bit of research says that suicide breeds suicide, and for a depressed teen who wants a bit of inspiration, this is the perfect damn thing ("she left a cassette and the boy followed it! they all got to know how much they'd

Well, theoretically.

I can't imagine who this is for. Adults already know suicide is bad, but probably won't sit through a several hour teen melodrama to figure out how to help their depressed kids. Already depressed teens are going to be severely triggered by all of this (just reading the words "cutting her wrists" made my stomach turn a

I'll bet everything I have that women that don't have sex with him are "cold bitches".

That actually became a much-discussed thing in 2015. Several stories broke about people saying terribly racist things on twitter or facebook, only to have offended people jump in and contact their bosses, who promptly fired the racist. Cue apology.

My straight, slightly bear-shaped, 45 year old dad started wearing kilts to "celebrate his Scottish heritage" (really it was to, ahem, enjoy the fresh air).
Picture a man with braided, red/brown hair going most of the way down his back, a sizeable beer belly, a black beret, black polo shirt, black kilt, black combat

That's a really lovely way of seeing it.

Because then you have to keep troops there to prevent them from going back in, I suppose, and ostensibly the goal is to leave the Afghans alone eventually.

Not with Hitler's dick.

How much did we spend to scuff up a few airstrips that were functional the next day?

As I recall, she said the Syria bombing was appropriate. Which is different.

Fry-Day came 'round again? Times flies when you're in existential terror.

I'd agree with that. It seems clear she put an effort in, and just hiring a diverse writer's room and then actually letting them say their piece is as much as a white showrunner can do, I think.

That episode is credited to Brett Baer and Dave Finkel; Fey only has a creator credit. Other notable writers on 30 Rock include Donald Glover, Hannibal Burress, Kay Cannon, Vali Chandrasekhar, and about ten other people I haven't heard of. Assuming it was the standard writer's room, where everyone discussed the

It was only 2008!
As far as the LGBT movies go: no one's actually watching except the kids who need them.

If my school could show All Quiet On The Western Front, they can show Elle Fanning shaving her head and getting the shit kicked out of her.

THE BOULDER NO LONGER FEELS CONFLICTED
