I’d forgotten about that. Though that was an organized company of men with their own leadership structure, as opposed to randoms from throughout the ranks. I think people would be more willing to be lead away from there by someone they respected and trusted than just choose to go off on their own, and would have a…

I loved how at the last minute, his heartless wife was suddenly overcome with grief. It felt like someone watched through a runthrough and decided that someone had to be shown to give a fuck about the girl.

I think if there was some plausible place for those troops to go that didn’t result in certain death, I’d be with you. Unfortunately, the troops are pretty much like, “well, this horsemeat and burning children sucks, but it’s the best we’ve got.”

I get where this is coming from in that hair grows back, it’s a temporary situation and therefor from that way of looking at it shouldn’t be a big deal.

And the POCKET on the white shirt. And then the thin material so that I’m sure in person reveals his undershirt or lack thereof.

Clothes??? I thought they specialized in drama-llamas.

Actually I would say that the more boring and mundane a story is, the more likely it will slip, just because the people working on it simply won’t be bothered about keeping it under wraps. If you can get people to understand why it’s important to keep the secret, that’s half the battle.

I know this article is about the cat doing something horrible, but I still look at this photo and want to give this tiny tiger all the head scratches and snuggles.

This. If a guy gave me roses, it’d say “I don’t really know you, but I’m doing what I think I’m supposed to do in this situation.” However if he (hint, hint, husband if you’re reading) came home with a simple grocery store bunch of peonies or dahlias or poppies, I’d be over the moon. As with all gifts, whether it…

I probably wouldn’t have known what the heck to do in the moment either! But, don’t make so many excuses for him that nothing gets done about it. Do you know the family well enough that you could follow up with the parents?

I’m not sure it’ll make you feel better, but I think the only thing you’re doing wrong is picking who you’re picking. When I read your post it reminded me of my last couple of casual guys big-time... I’ve totally been the person before the “right” person for a bunch of guys, and wondered why. But something happened…

guys, IUD question. How do you know when the pain is too much? I’ve had this thing in for a little under a year, and the periods have been super rough for the most part, week long bouts of cramping and more soaked tampons than I think I’ve used in my whole life prior to getting this thing. But this one is even…

My (purely logical, non-legal) response to that would be to identify whether she had any patients who were particularly problematic in that way and see if she could swap shifts, areas, etc. with someone more able to handle them, or put her on office duties for the duration. If those weren’t possible, it still seems…

THESE AREN’T EVEN WORDS!!!!

yeah, when a guy I knew held up a pizza joint with a fake gun at 14, he was tried as an adult and put in jail for a year. His cell mates were 40+ year old violent criminals. So I have a hard time having sympathy for the “but he was just a kid!” argument when it’s so unequally applied in our justice system.

If this were a venn diagram, I feel like “prominent people with connections” would mostly be a subset of “white people,” so it’s a bit difficult to disentangle.

yeah, for this reason ever since it became clear that gene pool (sorry, that’s how I always read her name in my head!) wasn’t going to be in the show, this night was pretty much a done deal.

Thank you for bringing up the parallels to Dany’s wedding night. They really drove that home, down to the way they shot it (the grim look on both their faces) and the positions they were in. There are a lot of parallels between the two characters at this point two—both were given up to their husbands by the last bit…

I think Little finger expects to ride back up north, become Warden of the North, and marry Sansa after Ramsey is dead. He’ll act like he’s being so virtuous by taking on this used-up widow, and then be like, “King in the North! King in the North!”

Also, what do they think *Sansa* expected to happen? Maybe not in precisely this way, but she surely walked into this marriage with her eyes wide open, knowing that she would have to have sex with him and that he has cruel tendencies.
