Yep. I’m not a huge Jim Carrey fan of late (mostly due to his anti-vax nonsense), but now that I know his accuser is a Scientologist, I’m leaning more toward believing Carrey.

All the weird shit regarding this story now makes sense.

the “balancing 1000 things” is what makes me the most mad. I “balance 1000 things” because I know full well that if I don’t take the dry cleaning, book flights for thanksgiving, coordinate w/ my inlaws, book a cat sitter, etc, that shit WONT GET DONE. And it’s not b/c my husband is a loser. He’s just not used to

330 million in lost business? It takes a special mix of homophobia, pigheadedness and stupidity to not back down in the face of that.

This fuckboy needs to answer questions about when I can fill up my tank without going on a Tolkien-esque quest for a station that actually has gas. NC just stays taking Ls, and largely because of this dude and the Republican General Assembly. I swear to god if my fellow North Carolinians vote for this guy again, man.

The Good Girl. Cake. Office Space. The Switch (fight me idc). Horrible Bosses. Rumor Has It. Bruce Almighty.

Office Space. The Good Girl. That’s all I got.

In all of these discussions, is it a generational thing that no one mentions any political action? People have mentioned women dieting in this thread but nothing on actually changing things. How about the 60's, 70's fashion of price controls and political action?

Here’s another option. Stop setting every show in New York (or LA). The city doesn’t play a role in most of the shows, and the rest of the country isn’t as enamoured of NY as TV producers like to pretend.

Whenever I see tv characters in huge, ridiculously expensive dwellings I just assume they have money or have parents with money. They’re like “The Real Housewives of Whereever”; not really anything like an actual housewife that has too cook, clean, maintain a house, and raise kids. They’re rich people whose nanny,

On Angel, the Buffy spinoff, they tried to give the broke-ass characters a tiny, dingy office and tiny, dingy apartments that people who live in LA without money might actually be able to afford. They got really, really sick of trying to frame good shots in those cramped spaces though, and wrote in typical TV BS to

Also remember Friends was tapes in front of a live studio audience. That also makes a different.

I listened to an interview with the girls from ‘Broad City’ and I think it was Ilana who said that they wanted their apartments to be realistically super duper tiny, but then the cameramen and crew had no room to shoot.

I find these days that most of us eat on the sofa. Don’t you eat there? I eat there. :D Our table is for art and writing and holding my weekly vase of flowers.

It depends on the story. If you’re meant to feel sorry for a character for being poor they should probably not live in an apartment that looks like something Jay Gatsby would find lavish. Similarly, if the plot hinges on a character being clumsy and unathletic they probably shouldn’t have 3 Olympic gold medals in

Side note: while I’ve definitely wondered how a cop and Vice Principal on the Fosters could afford their house, and specifically this kitchen, it hasn’t stopped me from dreaming about the day I have the exact same one.

To be fair, half of the second season of Kimmy Schmidt is about that neighborhood gentrifying. It’s not like they were ignoring it.

To answer the headline- my mom. My mom cares about the unrealistic apartment size standards set by tv shows. She was especially appalled by the living units on Friends, so much so that I couldn’t watch it until I moved into a dorm for school. And then, when sharing a 250 (tops) sq ft living space with a stranger, I
