Uh... he wrote the fucking thing. Were they supposed to give an award for writing to someone who didn’t write the script? Were they supposed to give an award to a different show, because #equality? Are you saying they should have had a woman write the thing to begin with? We can have that discussion, but that really…

I guess my question is what should Miller have done? Not accept the award? Not accept the nomination? Not accept the job in the first place?

This girl is still a thing?

We called him Freddy pizza. That’s a good villain name I think

You’re lucky. My freshman year floor was an all girl floor with people who I guess never drank before. There was vomit all the time. Oh and this weird guy who used to come around and knock on people’s doors then make inappropriate requests if you let him in the room, like repeatedly asking you to sit on his lap. And…

Even if you could somehow remove the other context (like, for example, that Jamele Hill was absolutely correct), this is the White House press secretary openly calling for a private organization to fire a journalist for criticizing the President. That is fucking insane.

“Alexa, who is John Galt?”

She hasn’t lent him any credibility at all. She’s pretty clearly damaged his credibility with the only part of the electorate that trusts him, and she’s simultaneously used his credibility with that group to move the needle towards this becoming law.

This is a stupid complaint. She gave up nothing while getting Trump to help her further the discourse that Dreamers are good people who should be protected. This gives Republicans in purple states necessary cover to make DACA law. There is literally nothing but upside to her last few moves.

As an assistant boss, I feel like I need to speak in defense of the assistant bosses.

Like this:

This is the single worst take in the history of language.

More than anything, my sense is that the season would have been an order of magnitudes better if the writing team had just taken a step back from everything after the scripts were all finished, and then a few days later take one more editorial pass before committing to filming. There was a lot of sloppy writing, but th…

I completely, 100% agree, and I imagine that this stance might be a bit easier to take if you haven’t read the books.

I really didn’t like the way LF’s end went. It was pure anticlimax: After successfully masterminding major events all through the war he himself set in motion, he falls because of a relatively minor intrigue in the North. You might say it was poetic, but it didn’t really feel that way to me.

And as satisfying as it…

Nah. I was hoping for him having a big influence in final events. I’ll miss him! Great mind manipulator and survivor... until..whell.. he died.

Nailed it. My friends and I have been complaining all day that the episode was really gratifying, but 100% unearned and poorly plotted

I laughed during that scene because that plot line (as written this season) did not earn this ending at all. Good surprises and twists are when a character does something you don’t expect but in hindsight makes sense for the presented character psychology. Bad surprises are when things happen because the writers and…
