There is a lot fucked up about it. But it definitely doesn’t override rights of self-incrimination. The problem for Ms. Manning is that she was already convicted and sentenced for the crime. She can’t be tried for that crime again. So, she has no valid rights against self-incrimination since no criminal prosecution…

nt. Daenerys had no strategic reason whatsoever to massacre a town full of innocents after they surrendered

Lots of us saw it and everyone argued us down and now it was never there at all? Funny how that works. 

Francis, their youngest son, seemed like a pretty smart, cool, capable  dude. 

Richard was fairly popular in Aquitaine, which was altogether a more civilized chivalric place. But, regardless, he was actually running things in his own duchy from a young age (13 or so) whereas Henry didn’t do much at all.

I think she had a hand in her epitaph though. She’s the only one who would include that she was married to a Henry (a man she by all accounts adored and treated her as almost an equal partner in power) rather than her son Henry’s father, the loathsome Geoffrey of Anjou, whom she loathed. 

From the little I’ve read that touches on it she very much did not care for Eleanor. 

She was pretty evil though. 

Stories more bizarre than Cersei becoming Queen Regnant happen in history. For instance, Isabella deposing her husband, Edward II (sure her time at the top was short but so was Cersei’s I think a year passed in show.) It was later in history but not in any less a patriarchal society when Catherine the Great, who…

I liked that book a lot but there was a weird part where she suggested she pissed off the people of London because she was on her period. When she did the same thing her father would have done. Refuse to give into demands from what should be subjects.

I always thought Henry the Young King sounded like a useless prick. I think Richard was the best of his sons.

I love her so much.

On the bright side I get a nice evening buzz on much less wine. Cheaper. 

Fantastic.

There is a difference between declining to continue with a show and publicly bemoaning that all of your crew isn’t being laid off.

She doesn’t even have that active a social media presence either. That’s what I’ll never understand. She isn’t one of those people conditioned to tweet every time they take a piss. She hardly ever tweets. And THIS is the time you had to air your thoughts?

Whenever Ming-Na Wen’s Elaine (the mother to the son who owns his own business/is a taxi driver) is on the show she is fabulous. Better than Jessica honestly.

That’s definitely fair. Although I don’t think she was supposed to be the star. She just eclipsed everyone. It’s Eddie’s memoir. His show. Initially his voice-over (quickly dropped.)

She’s a great comedic actress and Jessica was a fun character at first. But she really has become a pretty stock sitcom character. Flanderized to hell. I don’t blame her for wanting out. (One of the shows we keep on the background sometimes when cooking or playing a game when Hulu reminds us it exists. The quality…

Sufe Bradshaw had some serious health issues, which kept her out of work for awhile. I think/hope she is doing much better now.
