Netflix should double down and put up a warning that says, “SOME of these things didn’t happen.”

It’s weird for this to share a front page with the Jezebel article on anorexia.

It’s looking like Russia will lose EVENTUALLY; it’s a matter of how bad it gets before that happens, because if/when he loses, Putin will be driven out of power, and he doesn’t want that to happen.

Same.

You should see what they’re doing to their OWN citizens. They’re sending convicted criminals to the front with an antique gun, no training, and not even wishing them “Good luck.”

Haven’t seen is, but I guess they don’t bring up the really obvious suspect because he wasn’t investigated and convicted of any crime?

The Russian government is more concerned about surviving a round of purges than getting an arms dealer back.

If you’re wondering why the dialogue is horrifically bad, it’s because the dialogue in the book is horrifically bad.

I’d watch the hell out of that.

I think you are underestimating how expensive they are.

Paramount Plus? Fuck. Get on one of the five streaming services I already have access to.

Cavill’s gotta pay for all of those Warhammer miniatures somehow.

Cocaine, like fentanyl, has medical uses. Cocaine is used to stop bleeding and force the blood to clot. While marijuana does have medical use, it’s not stocked in emergency departments like cocaine.

Apparently they got the rights to adapt LOTR but NOT anything in the Silmarillion so the First Age would have been a real challenge in that respect.

I know everyone is going to tar and feather me but I actually liked the cold open.

Seeing actors who are not Orthodox Jews dress up as Orthodox Jews is always a little hilarious.

I didn’t even know they had a monarchy until I was in Copenhagen. They have very nice crown jewels. But it does seem rather cruel to strip people of their titles rather than just not grant any new ones. You’re basically taking away part of someone’s name.

Even the Variety article gets some pronouns wrong. It’s not intentional. It’s hard to use the “them” pronoun consistently in an article discussing multiple people and have it be easy to read, especially if multiple people use the pronoun “them.”

You used to have to go to Mexico for gender reassignment surgery because it wasn’t allowed or insurance companies wouldn’t pay for it in the United States. Even if a doctor WANTED to perform it, they knew they could lose their license, so they didn’t. A bunch went to Mexico and set up clinics. But it’s hard to move

I really enjoyed the book until I realized how ridiculous amoral the main character was. He tries to justify it in his mind when he’s writing about it years later but this guy did a lot of crime. I’m not saying he’s irredeemable but he’s not a good person and most of the people he hangs out with are not good people.
