Whatever Buzz Killington, I got half an evil Christoper Lloyd monologue before he got electrocuted & Jack Black & Lizzo as the sweetest space couple in the universe.

I’ve been very much enjoying it. I read the Silmarillion.. but years ago in High School so my memory is not great. How has it been out of sink with Tolkien’s lore? It’s seemed to be setting up for the events of the end of the second age pretty well, I feel like. I’ve really enjoyed the whole “Mordor origin story”

Accept that you’re a whiner. 

I like the black. (Beats the hell out of the red Olyphant was wearing)

You have no actual experience or knowledge of his relationship with his ex-wife and commenting on it as you though you know the inner workings is extermely weird behaviour.

as someone in recovery and having seen the successes and failures of so many people in my recovery meetings, people aren’t textbooks and most of the ideas around addiction are quickly losing merit. especially as we learn how dangerous the purist/disease model and all the “red flag projections” baggage it carries with

It’s pretty easy for you to judge and dismiss things from where you’re positioned in this parasocial relationship. While certainly not as damaging as an addiction to cocaine, parasocial relationships and sitting so far stop a high horse in judgment of complete strangers are unhealthy and, in their own way, addictive

Sucking it up and trying if you’re a swimmer or basketball play may look like a slower time, or a sub-par performance. Sucking it up and trying when you’re a gymnast can mean serious injury, paralysis, or death. She made the right call and her entire team supported her and went on to kick ass themselves.

All her teammates strongly supported her decision. When you care about your teammates, you care about their well-being as well as the work they contribute to your the team. None of those young ladies wanted to see simone suffer or injure herself for a medal. They value simone biles the person, not just simone biles

Well you just told us a whole lot about yourself didn’t you

...one of Shyamalan’s best films to date.

Remember how Ezra’s blaster/lightsaber hybrid only fired stun bolts, and then after he aged up in the timeskip he was shooting people with a normal blaster? Kids don’t use normal guns in these shows.

Cad Bane? Again? Ugh.

Let me know when they start making good films.

I was under the impression that the the only regular cast member who didn’t come back for season 2 was Quinta Brunson, and that was because of a scheduling conflict with the the show she’s doing on ABC, thanks to the pandemic throwing all shooting schedules out of whack.

I, for one, would gladly pay $20 for an extended cut of Godzilla vs Florida

Just before we have some of the usual ‘Cancel culture gone mad!’ comments, no, she is not being ‘cancelled’, she is facing the consequences of using a public platform, the internet equivalent of shouting out in the middle of the street, to make questionable comments, and Disney would rather not have to deal with it.

It’s funny how they can hear being called a racist from five towns over but couldn’t hear a president call for Insurrection from a half block away.

Now playing

It’s unclear how much of this show will be for kids, versus the former kids who grew up with the original series.
