And that, in a nutshell, is the U.S. news cycle in 2017.

I thought that, too - but who would ransom them? There's literally no one on Pyke or Dorne who gives a f*** and would be able/willing to pay ransom.

Danke. Yara/Asha lives to seduce another day!

Good for them, the crazy kids.

Can someone confirm whether the two bodies impaled on/hanging off the prow were Yara and Unidentified Sand Snake Number Whatever? You know, for those of us watching on sad, small TVs.

So, never eating pot pie again.

The intern quietly backing away from Amy after she declares she needs to fuck an intern had me in tears. To have Dan father her child is the perfect cherry on top of the Amy-never-gets-laid-"I can be VERY. FLIRTATIOUS." sundae.

Also, I don't know if it makes sense to put every one at 42 degree latitude on the same system, since the problem for New England is also due to our longitudinal location within the time zone, i.e., on the eastern edge. The way it is now is much more tolerable for other locations to the west at 42 degrees latitude…

All excellent points. I suppose it's personal preference, but I would much rather have the 6:39am +/- 93 minutes for dawn variation. I feel like I have to get through the morning slog no matter what it looks like outside, but having the sun set over an hour before I leave work makes me miserable.

Yep…in Boston it's 4:11pm. So brutal and it really has an impact on mental health for a lot of people.

Sure. As I mentioned in another reply, I am merely wishing for the abolition of the system in New England, with the adoption of a year round time that makes sense for this area. I clearly underestimated how strongly people would feel compelled to point out that December is during standard time in response to an…

I didn't realize/notice it until I moved from Buffalo to Boston about a decade ago, but being on the eastern edge of the time zone means the sun sets in Boston (and New England) up to an hour earlier than it does in the western part of the time zone, which makes for brutally early sunsets in the winter.

'Um…' Yes, I understand how DST works, thanks. I also understand that state and local governments have been toying with their DST/time zones for the better part of modern history, and choosing a uniform time that gets rid of the switch in one way OR THE OTHER is not out of the question, and that in New England the…

It hits a little too close to home because, as a Bostonian, I have a burning hatred of DST and would whole-heartedly back someone running on such a platform. You know, except Jonah. Eh…might still be worth voting for Jonah if it meant the sun setting later than 4:00 in December.

I've watched Veep for years but only just started Life in Pieces a few days ago, and it is just as confusing (if not way more so) the other way around. It's so unnerving that Tim is kind to his wife and kids and not dripping with vulgarity and sarcasm.

Christ…

This looks incredible, and one can't help but draw the comparisons between the united resistance of the Litchfield inmates and women living under this misogynistic, garbage administration in real life. I'm not taking lightly the horrors of prison abuse by drawing this comparison, but damn…the timing of this season…

As if that changes things… thanks, Obama!

Your microwave probably heard you, though.

I thought she said "I rest my case" but I definitely could have misheard.
