Poor Nico. This episode and last, she keeps getting shit on while having no one to take care of her. The reveal at the end is just what she needs to go dark (temporarily).

I feel like some of it can be explained by circumstance. Sure, if they were in their old lives, they would have had a slower progression. But now, with so much happening, essentially on their own, sharing a room, plus their age? Things move at superspeed. I do wish we saw more of those in-between moments though and it…

The visual effects on this show continue to be great. From Carolina’s glowing skin to the planet map, it all looks cool and not cheesy.

I agree -- it was a sweet moment, not what I would call “seduction.” 

that guy who looks like Blake from Workaholics

I can’t speak for all liberals, but.. this is the future I want. 

Scrummy. 

I’m one of those who hates “going to the gym” but I love workout classes. However I really struggle these days to find things that are fun - every gym and studio around me seems to offer the same “super intense cardiocrossfityogablast!” I’ve been looking around for dance classes, tai chi, fencing and am coming up…

Co-sign. It took me a long time to realize that I kept dating people I wanted to be, not be with.

It sounds like she felt rejected and lashed out. Definitely not what she should have done and I’m sorry you dealt with that. It’s frustrating how common this reaction can be. 

I stopped watching Homeland when the kid showed up. She would never, medicated or not, have had a baby. 

I think that’s a matter of perspective. My local food kitchen regularly sends out requests for money in language like “Yes, I’d like to give 60 people Thanksgiving dinner with my gift of $$.” When I write my check, I imagine all of those people eating that food that I helped buy!

Is anyone from AV Club covering She-Ra now that the episodes have dropped? I went into it not expecting much and I think it’s fantastic. 

I feel this. I get migraines and it always feels like my face is bleeding. I don’t understand how there can be so much pain in my head without there being damage. I worry that my brain tissue is dying every time I have a migraine. But I’ve also had brain MRIs and there’s nothing. 

I get a headache that throbs behind my left eye and radiates downward into my jaw like someone stuck an ice pick through the eye at an awkward angle.

Thank you! I am so tired of companies I’m not interested in spamming my real mail, where I’m unable to opt out. 

I couldn’t get into the first season of this show but I started watching season 2 while I was cleaning and ended up getting hooked. I really like Jessie’s storyline, it’s amazing how accurate some of these awkward teen experiences are. 

I pretty much always get CPK or Newman’s (maybe this is regional), especially on any kind of sale. 

Good to know! I’ve thought about buying it but it’s twice the price of the pretty okay frozen pizzas. 

Remember how smart Alex used to be? Like, actually intelligent and motivated? She’s had no real definition the last few seasons. It’s disappointing.
