Yeah, my father-in-law is a vet and he loves to say that there is only one rule: Always get a mutt. Every purebred is a genetic house of cards, from cardiac issues to hip dysplasia, etc., etc.

Man, I do not understand the organizing principle behind Great Job, Internet.

Today I learned that Rian Johnson and Karina Longworth are married and are now my favorite hollywood couple. You Must Remember this is one of my all time favorite podcasts and one of the few that I have listened to more that once - her blacklist series and Manson series were great.

She dresses the way she does to avoid being sexualized by gross pedophiles online who have no right to be “concerned” or interested in how she dresses.

Luke Perry’s character Pike from the movie version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the only decent boyfriend Buffy ever had 

What you’re saying is completely at odds with all evidence and all psychoanalytic or philosophical understandings of suicide and is an insult to anyone who’s ever dealt with suicidal ideation or lost a loved one to suicide. You’re not worth engaging with so I’ll stop

What the show presented about “going through the door” has absolutely nothing in common with earthly suicide. They’ve lived thousands of years, experienced everything, learned everything, reconciled with everyone they ever knew and are completely satisfied so eventually after all that, completely electively and under…

“However, it forgets his growth. It treats Janet as an afterthought instead of a full we’ve been cheering on.”

I have a lot of thoughts, and I’ve been processing them. But generally this:
Be good. In the end you get what you put out, as long as you decide to keep putting it out. And that energy extends forever, in small ways.

And that’s it. This ending was just what I wanted. I’ll miss them. This was the peak of this era’s…

When watching the penultimate episode, I thought that it was the finale, and Chidi’s last line seemed like a perfect conclusion - that the Good Place is “not even a place, really. It’s just having enough time with the people you love.”

I get why you feel the way you do. The problem here is time reference. It is implied that eons go by over the course of the finale, which essentially makes it impossible for people like you and me to understand how anyone could come to the decisions that Chidi et al. come to about their existences.

Your beautifully-written comment made me realise the symmetry between Eleanor’s “life force” landing on Michael’s neighbour’s shoulder and him making the decision to deliver the letter and Eleanor’s act of “goodness” in Australia - taking her taxi all over town to return the wallet and a bunch of personal belongings…

This was really beautiful. I went back and forth during the fist part on whether or not we’d get a glimpse of what happened when they stepped through the door, and I think I came down on hoping we didn’t. The show has dropped a lot of easter eggs for The Leftovers (which didn’t really give us a concrete explanation of…

Sure, it’s not a “love story”, but I would say it’s still a story “about love”, no? I mean, value for the individual, the root of good being in caring about other people, true happiness in the real Good Place being tied to happiness with others, I think those are all aspects of “love for your fellow human being”.

It takes a lot for someone as existentially terrified of death as I am to find going through the door a comforting idea rather than a frightening one, but this episode managed it.

My guess is that they will go on a spiritual quest, baby Archie and a squad of security and household personnel in tow.

Racism tends to make things less fun and cheerful. 

This is what happens when you protect a pedophile more than your son’s wife.

They’re already financially independent, so whatever they do won’t be to keep body and soul together. Harry inherited a few million pounds from the queen mother back in the 90s, and he inherited a further £10 million or so from his mother, which pays out a yearly dividend of somewhere in the neighborhood of $450,000.…

That the palace would make an angry statement about this, and not about rapist pedophile prince andrew, says everything. Throw the whole damn castle in the garbage. Go sussexit
