But all those “bad mom” jokes weren’t about her not being there for Leo, they were strictly about her not being involved in the school stuff. (I don’t count the stuff about his diet because that’s more of a running Lahiri family joke) They explicitly state she’s a very involved parent and does the whole morning and…

I don’t know what more shit she could conceivably have gotten, but it always left a really bitter taste in my mouth that her second breakup with Dean is so painless for her. He and Lindsay are left absolutely broken and humiliated, and she skates straight into a new thing with a rich douchebag who’s obsessed with her,…

I’ve grown to love their separation because their reunion is so, so sweet.

That’s upsetting... MLA, we miss you and hope you’re okay.

Doesn’t really matter if he’s being 100% genuine or doing other charity work, this message bolsters other voices in the community and he has a huge audience to push in the right direction. This is a nice, ultimately good thing. Get off your high horses and stop making enemies of imperfect allies.

See it how? It seems like public figures are damned if they stay quiet but equally damned if they say something but don’t dedicate their lives to the cause.

I’m struggling to see “psychopath Beth” as anything less than a retcon, let alone rivaling Rick. I’m not saying she’s a good person, but I’d buy this as a Rick manipulation before I’d buy that she’s been a violent crazy person all this time and we’re only just learning of it. She’s been nothing but a normal (if…

See, I think Liz’s characterization kind of trivializes Jess’s issues. I feel like the show chalking it all up to dopey enthusiasm and naivety minimizes the genuinely shitty things she’s put him through

Luke’s face when he realizes he loves her (about time, you dork...) is one for the ages.

I’d never thought about it before, but the right title sequence can make a huge difference. I wonder, for example, if I’d have been as enamored with early Dexter without that beautiful intro setting the tone for the show

Not ashamed to say I’ve watched that ending sequence at least 50 times.

I really struggle to believe anyone is that oblivious that they aren’t aware / have never considered why they find catharsis in shouting racial slurs. He knows the connotations of what he’s doing and does it anyway.

Feminist critique has really struggled to reconcile femininity with female empowerment. Because subverting gender roles is seen as bold and strong, people tend to see any adherence to them as weakness (sometimes without realizing it, it seems like). That’s why in general discourse Arya Stark is “strong” and Sansa…

Loved this. Loved that the reveal didn’t affect Jane’s decision, that they tied Kat’s online worldview into both her love story and the episode’s strong theme, and Sutton still putting her job first in the midst of an absolute shitshow of a love life.

The male characters on this show get so much fucking slack, whereas the only female character allowed to have flaws is Arya, and only because she’s strong in a masculine way.

This episode finally sold me on Pinstripe, just in time for him to lose the Pinstripe title. (That said, I’ve already forgotten his name)

THANK YOU. I wanted to be all-in with the romance of that scene but I was just horrified thinking of how many security cameras are on them and that Trump had probably sat on that couch before.

I suppose this will be as annoyingly over-marketed as those other two Walking Dead mobile games I unfortunately know all about despite not playing mobile games or watching the show

Here’s hoping. Even though they lampshaded it with some self-aware jokes, the romantic sublots were the weakest part of the show for me, no combination that’s been proposed so far has really worked
