I’m still holding out hope she’ll end up with Adam Pally’s character. That would be an awesome ending.

Isn’t the way he was portrayed more realistic though? It’s not like controlling and/or abusive men show their true colors early in the relationship...

Definitely. She should 100% speak to an attorney asap, and there are resources out there for low-cost representation (or even just consulting with an attorney, getting an idea of how to proceed, and going forward without an attorney). I’ve seen parental alienation situations snowball into the kid not wanting to have…

Gee, it almost seems like if you funnel all the wealth to the top 1% of the country and let wages stagnate, the rest of us have no disposable income.

I’m glad she got out of there. For those of you as fascinated by cults and things of that nature as I am, Louis Theroux did 2 excellent shows on WBC and you can watch them on Youtube.

And to work with. My former boss, God knows why, had one in charge of company money. There were several occasions wherein he was “mugged” conveniently in the vicinity of a casino.

She may have also just been scared and unable to think as clearly as one would normally. I’ve interacted with his type before and they are scary dudes. You can feel the hatred burning in them and there’s a level of intensity there that definitely kicks the fight-flight-or-freeze into high gear. I got nervous just…

I find the subject interesting too. On a random note, one of my favorite X Files episodes is the one about past lives. Mulder tells Scully he was a soldier in a past life and that Scully was there. You assume he’s going to say Scully was his wife or love interest, but he tells Scully she was his commander. I just…

Trust me, this sort of shit doesn’t just go on in the film industry. We still have a long way to go in this country.

Also, this:

Nixon is a Boy Scout next to Trump but his supporters just don’t care. They’re what scares me, not Trump necessarily. I don’t know if we’ve ever seen a group of people so willing to overlook nearly anything in a politician.

True, but I believe the person has to rescind the contract after reaching the age of majority, which I hope she’s done.

Preeety disappointed this doesn’t appear to be about an actual cult. You had a real opportunity there, Murphy, and it looks like you blew it.

Lol. Oligarh.

Ehh I’d use the word “voluntarily” loosely. Most of the slaves Lee had were inherited from his father-in-law, who dictated in his will that they be freed after his death. Lee eventually complied but was really forced to free them per the will.

Pet care is a good idea, I’ll look into it thanks!

That’s the general plan but he’s at that awkward stage where he’s overqualified for entry-level stuff but doesn’t have enough experience for higher-level stuff. Hopefully something will come up.

Having a bit of an early mid-life crisis. After finishing grad school with a LOT of debt, I found a job where I was making a good amount of money. I lost that job and, luckily, found another one. I really love my new job (and the last job was pretty awful mentally and emotionally so it’s a welcome change) but it pays…

Don’t you love how, to Hollywood, all Europeans are British? :-)

Now, see, that would be a movie worth seeing!
