I just left a comment about the Flying Tomato Brothers :D

Pizza, in all it’s various forms. But the one place that really stood out as a UIUC student of the 90's was Garcia’s pizza across the street from the campus. It wasn’t really the best pizza, but it was decent and filling. Big rectangular slices of a thick crust pizza. Apparently they’ve been closed down for a while

If this freaks out fence-sitters enough that they’ll get vaccinated, I’m all for it.

Beck is fantastic but imho Kyle should go. He has one shtick that’s all about him, all the time. Some of it was funny but it’s played out.

I think Armond is good, and people holding him to a standard of coercion that they don’t hold to the privileged guests of the hotel are missing the bigger picture of the show. The guests(rich people) do terrible things and then have the locals and the workers (society/us pleebs) deal with the blowout with what coping

Yeah, sorry, not getting how Armond is an “active villain.” Obviously, enticing your subordinates in exchange for sexual favors is horrible, but that horrible-ness is at least somewhat mitigated by Armond’s addiction.

South side of Chicago is like that too. My father-in-law is the most racist person I’ve ever met and my family is from the Deep South. He has racist comments for Scandinavians, which I’ve never heard ever before meeting him.

I’ve met Effie Brown and she is literally one of the kindest Hollywood people I’ve ever met. I mean she walked up to me on Ash Wednesday with a huge smile and told me (totally unprompted; I was working the event she was attending and had ashes on my forehead) that while she was ex-religious, she loves people who are

“positioned Armond firmly into active villain territory”

Well if she didn’t want this to happen then she shouldn’t have been an innocent victim of Italian police incompetence and corruption, and she shouldn’t have been existing in a world where the international press demonizes women to sell papers.

I know but how many people, who know Amanda’s name, can name the actual murderer and the murder victim as well.

It’s funny how whenever moviemakers are “inspired” by true events, American white men usually end up the heroes of the story even if they weren’t in reality.

Mining Amanda Knox’s ordeal for entertainment (by basically reproducing the story, but the names changed/serial numbers filed off,) is not new. Law & Order: SVU did it at the end of last year (Season 22, Ep. 3.) What makes Stillwater’s producers particularly classless is that they’re going around town explicitly statin

Chris Evans, 100%.

FWIW, her family were basically penniless after all the court battles, legal fees, flying back and forth to Italy, paying for a place to stay, etc. They’ve been honest about how the book advance went back to Italy in the form of paying all her debts - like, she literally HAD to write the book to not have her fam go

So not only does she not have the right to her own name, but you also think she doesn’t have the right to try and reclaim that stolen agency? That's an incredibly asinine point of view for you to take. 

I love the fact that at the heart of Amanda Knox’s saga, of which all the men around her including her then boyfriend and the actual murderer were moved to the background due to how both Italian and American culture works, this movie also completely removes her mother. Her parents, both of them together, stood next to

That’s because people like him, Carlson, hannity, they're all vaccinated, and require anyone around them to be vaccinated and tested. This is just more of the ivory tower bullshit the rubes love to hear. At least we can all rest assured this guy isn't convincing anyone of anything. If they aren't getting vaccinated,

Even if he committed his crimes today and was still on the loose, that says more about our available technology and police departments than it does about him or any other suspect being exceptional.

Not quite sure why so much coverage of this show is referring to Billy/Erin as a “dalliance” or a “relationship” (including the show itself). Even Lori talked about it like it was illegal only because it was incest, but it was also rape.
