Thank you, that’s sucky we’ll have to wait that long!

THANK YOU. I friggin love Sansa, I do not understand why people hate(d) her! Arya always came off as kind of spoiled to me and now this pot-stirring she’s doing is just exhausting.

Is this not the last season? I thought this was the last season.

I’m here for this!

Is she that vanilla though? With all this drama, I wouldn’t call her boring.

Yeah he seems like a complex person—lots of layers of good and bad as you say—and probably some of that comes from that identity limbo. I imagine it would force you to do a lot more inward thinking than most people, which can lead to deep understanding but also overthinking and anxiety.

Ugh yeah this reaction from Fey was real bad. I cringed.

One of his faves!

Ugh that part really got me too. “Grab them by the pussy” can in no way be called a gaffe. Neither can the Muslim ban, talk about Mexicans, lashing out at a gold-star family, etc, etc.

Thanks for this insightful comment. It’s giving me things to think about personally, but it also makes me wonder about Obama’s hesitance to really come out and support Black Lives Matter like people wanted him to. He was always verrrry careful with his words and I chalked it up to that, but I wonder about him being…

Couldn’t wait for this recap after last night’s episode! Not disappointed!

I listened to this on Radiolab today and it destroyed me: http://www.radiolab.org/story/91705-lucy/

that’s the distinction I would make as well. It was tone-deaf, but not outright malicious. Take the painting down, she won’t profit from it, and let her show continue. If the error in judgment was recognized, what more can we want that doesn’t lead to censorship or outright maliciousness on our part?

That was my reaction too! I feel like I’m going to throw up but I’m super impressed by her writing!

Wow I feel so nauseous after reading that. Guess I’m impressed with her writing skills!

Someone upthread pointed out that Virginia allows religious exemption from school.

I always hold out hope for him to do the right thing, because he talks a good talk, but I’m always disappointed.

I am HERE for this budding feud with David Brooks. He always talks/writes like he’s an omniscient being who’s read the book while the rest of us are only watching the tv series; when in reality, he just has a regular amount of knowledge. It’s like when you try to talk to your republican dad about the economy or money…

And what about that servant who Cersei let see Jamie in her bed? I feel like they focused on her enough to let you know that she’d be significant, maybe it’s Arya wearing a face???

Done and done! Thank you!
