Needs more stars. LMAO

No, but I definitely have a favourite ass cheek.

Best seminar of American Lit? Come on. It’s pleasant and interesting but for real where did you do American Lit? A night school held in rooms above a Korean grocery in Philly?

Yes, thetans are what plants crave, I believe.

She is committed AF to her craft, for sure! Read a great piece on Vulture about her memorizing all of Offred’s voice overs so that she was actually reciting them internally while acting out the scenes to match the narration to her face to the situation!

My completely uninformed but somewhat hopeful take is that she’s probably not too much of an adherent but since her family is in it, it’s in her interest not to risk becoming a Suppressive Person or whatever it is which would force the rest of her fam to cut her off or suffer troubles.

I hope she can follow Leah Remini, who spent most of her youth in the “church” and leave as well. Sometimes I have to try really hard to suspend disbelief and push the Scientology thing aside when I’m watching her work.

So over a years ago she appeared at readings of her religion. That’s what you are basing this on?

Yeah I am not really buying the whole “but she was born into it!” excuse I keep seeing. It’s a cult that brainwashes people, ruins lives and tears apart families? How about we just not employ members of Scientology at all since it continues to normalize it as a religion. Like did we all freak out after the HBO…

The only thing I’ve seen Moss in is The Handmaid’s Tale, and more obliquely, divorcing Fred Armisen. While I appreciate both of those worthy projects, her performance in the former is spotty for me and her being a Scientologist irl is both very ironic and also disturbing because, hey, violent cults and whatnot.

radiolabs episode on her called patient zero is one of my favorite podcast episodes. as an African queer woman, learning how AIDS really started, and not the misinformed antigay propaganda i accepted, felt like a minibomb exploded in my head.

She was raised in it. Not only was she indoctrinated from a young age all of her family would disconnect from her if she left.

Yeah she was. This is true, good point. It’s so weird though! She’s the uber-strong woman in all her roles. And she is so authentic too! She seems genuine and real.

Wasn’t she born into it though? I give more leeway to those people because leaving means losing their family. Maybe she’s a non-believer.

She’s a scientologist! I still can’t get over that lol

But carry on with that rich, white girl fantasy where writing a tell-all will make everything okey dokey.

One of Melania’s closest friends described her as a woman of no interests beyond materialism. She pointed out that Melania has no principles or causes and noted that rather than participating in the charity circuit, which is de rigeur for non-working wives of the Manhattan elite, she chose instead to shop and read…

More than most of us.

It’s kinda nice to know that she’s also rooting for him to die.

She would be an American hero. We would embrace her if she just said, ‘Listen, this guy’d disgusting and I know all his dirty secrets and I’m willing to tell everybody.
