The most enlightening part of this article, and the saddest and most hysterical part is that as a fan of this song, in college when it first aired, who sings along every time it plays - I had no idea that - TI ESREVER DNA TI PILF NWOD GNIHT YM TUP I - is I put my thing down and reverse it! Oh my god.

The headline made me clench my teeth, readying myself for a depressed girl being denied her wishes - but this was a great story; what a wonderful and empathetic hairdresser. After climbing down a k hole of racial injustices and Neo-nazi’s, I think I should sign off now, while I still have something sweet on my…

wow, I am in the midst of this - 39 and can’t even get an old female friend to call me back. was thinking there needs to be a Tinder for friends - cause mine are all married w/babies and too upset with their decisions to hang out, apparently, lol.

Basically, The Get Down was shot like a high end movie - like huge crane shots (which rarely happen on TV in this fashion). They repeatedly went over shooting schedule - generally an episode shoots in a week - but an episode could go on for so long that they lost (or had to hold onto actors). Even the writers room…

Really think Ariana made the best out of this shitty situation. But, it does make me smile that even in such dramatic situations she will only show one side of her face. Does the other side have a doozy eye or something?

If I ever find myself watching this show, I will in fact wonder, how the fuck did I get here — before changing the channel.

Of course. I’d just like to see this portrayed in a more naturalistic way.

I stopped after 3, but yeah, I hear 4 changed everything.

yeah, I skipped season 4 which might’ve gotten me hooked. Season 3 wore me out.

I’m down with those issues, the characters just feel more caricature at times, which I enjoyed at first but the it kind of grated on me. I dunno. I must admit I was over it last season, so I didn’t watch the big ending. I just kind of feel over these characters - but you’re right, it’s Piper that I find irritating.…

I’m a little over this show. If they were smart they’d start to wrap it up after next season. I don’t believe these ‘real life issues’ with these particular characters.

Not to mention this is a job, you get paid for. No excuse for fucking us all.

I get this motivation - and good luck! We need lawyers like you to change shit. Sadly, that poster is making me want to crawl into a hole.

Ha! Perfect.

I believe their meeting involve really good wine and talking how liberals are asshats. This from first hand knowledge.

I work in Hollywood, and there is a small group of white famous conservatives who donate to the same PAC and spew this same old shit. They’re rich and completely cut off from the rest of the country. Also, they are generally dicks in every way. Tim Allen is apparently part of that crowd.

yes. I’m a black writer, sometimes for television. The authenticity issue is extra problematic when you realize so many of the actors are trained, but then they don’t get to play Westernized characters but archetypes. They don’t get to play themselves at all. Feels to me that Hollywood still feels like ‘normal’ people…

thanks for explaining. And, yes, super impressive. I think we can be sex positive and still go, wow - that’s a lot of work.

2 to 5 sex partners a day?! That is mind boggling.

How do you even find that many sex partners? Like, wow.
