Steve Bannon looks like John Goodman with a three-month-old pomegranate where his soul should be.

Did you watch nationals the other day? I felt SO BAD for her. Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski were truthful about how terrible it was but were also about five seconds from storming the ice and dragging her off to a swamp planet to be the Luke to their Yodas.

I must have seen The Piano Teacher 8-10 years ago and let me tell you I am NOT watching that again but I sure as hell haven’t forgotten it.

I feel like finding love with Joaquin Phoenix is probably the equivalent of finding a six-month-old half-chewed Snickers covered in cat hair under your couch, but I don’t have a lot of use for Rooney Mara either, so...fine?

it’s the name of my wifi

I HAVE THE FABIO EDITION OF FLOWERS FROM THE STORM. I found it at a yard sale in 1996 and IT IS GLORIOUS.

Two white people looking sad, some seagulls, and a grey sky in the background.

I avoided that movie/book like the plague, so I guess I should amend that to “everything I have actually seen Jessica Chastain in.” Even Crimson Peak, which was gloriously OTT and I highly recommend it.

And Jessica Chastain plays one character: smart, steely, stoic. Not that I’m complaining. I love her and she’s brilliant at it and I would watch a remake of The Martian entirely from her character’s perspective. But yeah.

Here in RI there’s a guy who ran for state office a bunch of times named Guillaume de Ramel. GUILLAUME DE RAMEL. Try to say that in a normal voice and not a ridiculous French accent with imaginary cape/sword/ floppy feather hat. It cannot be done. GUILLAUME DE RAMEL! *swordfight*

I went to a con last year and sat in on a Sons of Anarchy panel with my sister and friend because I didn’t want to never see them again if I left them in the crowd. (I only watched season 1 and 2.) Ryan Hurst, who played Opie, flat-out said at one point “I have no idea what episode that was, but I’m sure you guys do.”

I watched her socialite show! Yep, I was the one. She kind of came across as a non-entity but her friend John-Paul something was a douchebag flaming train wreck of epic proportions.

I would also like to add that I read the first book lo these many years ago and in the book Demelza is dirt poor, alone, defenseless, AND THIRTEEN when she meets Ross. He takes her on as a personal servant and one night when she’s 17 they go for it. I am pretty sure I am not in any way misremembering that.

I’m really over this show in general and I’m not great at watching it because I tend to be a kind of an overly optimistic person in the first place. I accept that they’re going Full Crazy No Complexity Evil, fine, but after this they REALLY need to shift the focus of the show to the group finding safety and refuge.

I live in the godless liberal northeast and once had one foisted on me by a woman who ostensibly wanted directions to the river. Since the river was 50 feet in front of us, I don’t know how much help I was, but I got a Chick Tract for my troubles!

I think Lawrence was terribly miscast by David O. Russell more than once, and even then she wasn’t bad per se. In fact, she was quite good—she just wasn’t right. I think ZF is a role she could knock out of the park.

Words cannot express how there I am for this.

I do the same thing when I see packs of too-young-to-drive teens around downtown, and then I’m like, twenty years ago you were those teens, dumbass, and the thought that some random adult would be worried about you was laughable.

I believe’s it’s “slonk.”

It’s actually a pretty nice town but it is TOTES a good ol’ boy (well, good ol’ family, it’s gender inclusive) system in the government and schools. They’re basically overhauling the town charter all at once. Thank God for mail-in ballots. I live in a a solidly blue state but I don’t really want to go to the polls
