Molly met Andrew through Nathan when Issa and Nathan were seeing each other, so Issa has her own connection to Andrew via Nathan. Nathan re-established contact with Issa via that voicemail last episode and apparently asked Issa if she needed help; I don’t think it’s wrong of Issa to be like, “well, actually, I do need…

Reading about how she was looking forward to all her “lasts” got me. I think a lot about people who are graduating from anything this year. It sucks to put in all the work without being able to celebrate it.

I’ve known so many people, myself included, who went the extra mile, did all that unpaid labor bullshit like planning office birthday parties and showers, bragged about not taking vacations ... and were summarily laid off when the business had no more need for them. My best friend was just laid off and was on a Zoom…

I am really lonely. I was lonely before; it’s much worse now. And because I was lonely before, I made all these plans for things I wanted to do in 2020 (which in and of itself is a big deal because for a lot of reasons, I was too depressed to make plans for years - when I was in therapy, my therapist would try to…

I saw him live a few years ago too. He really does come across as a kind, likable dude.

I loved going to the grocery store and farmer’s markets before. I love to cook so going to the store was fun. I shop from a list but maybe something interesting would catch my eye, and I would pick it up and take it as a fun cooking challenge, especially at the farmer’s market.

Reese Witherspoon is one of those actors who I don’t mind watching (she doesn’t open a movie or show for me but I don’t mind seeing her when she turns up in stuff I’m interested in) but for some reason she as a person gets on my nerves. I thought she was great here - every microaggression and judgement was delivered…

The plot with the baby and two moms is basically the plot of Losing Isaiah, except much less time has passed here. I think (and I am not a lawyer so I’m happy to be corrected) you can try to get your parental rights reinstated if you can prove that you gave up your child under coercion or duress, and I guess they were…

Yeah, it’s different than the book and the book’s way is better (and makes more sense).

I saw that picture and thought “Is he supposed to be hot?”

My freshman roommate was a third-generation legacy of both our alma mater and a well-known boarding school and used to try to seduce guys into doing her work for her, despite having a high school sweetheart boyfriend. It didn’t work though, so I guess yay for not cheating on him, even though it wasn’t for lack of…

Not the amount - how they spent it. If Aunt Becky had taken her half a mil to the school’s development office, she’d be straight. Her kid would probably have gotten in AND she wouldn’t be facing federal charges.

In my experience (Ivy grad), people talk shit about athletes being “unqualified,” but it was the legacies and the people whose parents bought their way in who were the stupidest and laziest. I can think of two exceptions among the people I went to school with, both from “do you know who I am?” type families in terms…

Maybe! My sibling’s is also in the spring and I have a number of friends with spring and summer birthdays, so hopefully we get it together and do something.

I don’t mind doing my things by myself, and in fact because of my slightly weird interests and hobbies, I usually do just that, but not having ANY events to look forward to this spring/summer is kinda depressing.

This is currently my favorite video. And he’s right. Nobody needs to mess with bison. For what? If I see an animal bigger than I am coming near me, I’m going the other way.

All my friends with kids are going through it. I have a friend with three kids, the eldest of whom is 5. She and her husband are both working from home; they have to do so in shifts. She says her life is “chaos.”

I agree; I’ve been going for walks or runs alone while practicing social distancing. My friends with kids say they’ve been taking their kids outside sometimes, with social distancing, because their kids just need to get out of the house - my friend was just telling me about taking her kid to scooter in an empty…

An acquaintance took a picture of people having a picnic in a park on Friday, when the weather was really nice, and posted it on Twitter with a tweet that was basically “Why aren’t these people at home?” You can tell that two of the people in the picture know they’re caught - one is making a “go away!” gesture and the…

I always say “thank you” when I interact with ... well most people, but this time I felt like I should say more. Everything I thought of sounded dumb in my head though. “Thank you for your service?”
