Trump tweeted WITCH HUNT at 1:30 am.

They are gonna get ALOT of paper towels.

But to make this a 2-hour film you’d have to cut literally hours of: Camille driving, people whispering to one another, vague but elliptical ‘that Preaker girl is BAD NEWS’ conversations, redundant fast-edit collages/flashbacks/whatever, that newspaper editor and his wife whose only purpose appears to be assuring the

I’m on the verge myself. I like the bones of the show but there’s not much to it; I feel like they repeat the same limited set of moves in every episode. Here is the protagonist drinking and having flashbacks that make you intermittently uncertain when things are happening. Here is Adora mercilessly crushing her own

Food for thought: Perhaps a majority of the people watching haven’t read the book.

What about the sheriff’s wife?I can image she could lose her shit... 

That was my first thought.

The basic reason is that it feels like we can get a response from employers and the internet, while the criminal justice system is a vast and unfeeling monolith that grinds everyone caught in its gears to dust without heed or care for public outcry.

Is Jen driving herself to an Al-Anon meeting after she drops him off, because this is becoming some codependent bullsht. I get that he’s the father of her children and they’ve been married for a while, but sometimes addicts need real world consequences for their actions before they can maintain long term sobriety. If

I don’t think most men realise how much the world spins around them and their opinions/thoughts, and having a pregnant partner is one of the (few, if any) times that focus on the male is removed. IME even non-abusive men go through a volt of “holy crap, it’s not all about me anymore!” ANd even non-abusive men can

I mean yes but also at some point people are so desperate especially when establishment medicine continues to fail them. This isnt limited to ED. As someone who is suffering from a mysterious chronic fatigue issue that has been dismissed and unexplained by my doctors I see the allure of these people who claim to have

I know very few adult women who do not engage in restrictive/ritualistic behaviors when it comes to food. The thing is that like most behavioral rooted diagnoses those things are only considered disordered if they ultimately impact a person’s health or daily functioning. It’s hard to separate the societal impact of bas

This was very good, but hard to read from an emotional standpoint. My daughter was in and out of residential treatment centers for almost three years in her mid-teens, including involuntary treatment for almost nine months at an isolated, out of state facility with family visits allowed only every two months. It had a

And then it took Camille ALL day to get to her mother’s house, but the roller skate girls can get across town in minutes?  Wind Gap has some expanding contracting borders or something.

I’m sorry, I had high hopes for this, but this is the most ridiculous series I’ve seen in ages. From Patricia Clarkson’s dinner-theatre Streetcar Named Desire performance (and getting some competition in this episode from Elizabeth Perkins), the ASMR sound design, ‘you’re reading me’, Camille Preaker making certain to

I think that was the show using its subjective reality to trick us. When we see Camille teaching Amma how to climb over the bannister to avoid the creaky step at the top of the stairs, it looks like the out of focus head in the foreground is Adora’s. And then, when the cut to the other angle from the top of the

Good for you! I mean that sincerely. You’ve been through a lot, a free pizza is really the least the universe could do. Have you looked into some kind of hobby class? May help with both things to do and making friends. Best of luck to you!!

Also: CONGRATS and keep in mind, you’re still going through post-partum emotional adjustments, regardless of your mood, and those are also to be considered when assessing what’s “fair” for both parties, including yourself... I hope you have a good support network. Give yourself a break during this very (very) very

Dunno! Got re-greyed sometime last fall, just stayed here. Keep forgetting to do anything about it. *heh* It’s Jez’s loss anyway. I still get to keep seeing you guys here and piggybacking on your ungreyed threads. ;)

Saw her across a hallway at college, and a voice said, “You’re going to marry her.”
