She’s on the show “Younger” on TVLand. She doesn’t cook, though. :)

Even above decency, though, is Jamie's sense of obligation to the clan. I don't think that he spanked/beat Claire to be a conformist, and I do think that he's decent (and he sees himself as decent). Being dishonest to save the kid only affected the kid. But he has a responsibility as a clansman and de facto leader of…

The show is the only reason I got Starz. I'm so happy I did. I wouldn't have wanted to watch it on my computer, or wait for it to get to iTunes or wherever. Starz can take all my money, if they renew Outlander for the next 4 or 5 years.

But he does sort of tell her that it's not just for duty. I'm at work so I can't re-watch it (dang it!) but he says something like "I did marry her because of Dougal, but...." or "It started out as....but..." and then she says something about how he didn't look happy. Which told me that she got what he was saying,…

Another thought that I had was that it was interesting that with Jamie's narration of this episode, we get the first admission from either of them of being in love. While the show has so far been from Claire's perspective, it's certainly been clear from the beginning how he feels about her. Obviously we also know from…

I think that what makes Claire's slapping Jamie more "okay" than Jamie's spanking Claire is the issue of physical strength. Claire couldn't do nearly as much damage to Jamie as he could do to her. I see what you mean about her being obtuse, but I don't like her less because of it. Neither she nor Jamie are perfect,…

That's odd. I read in interview (in Vulture or somewhere) where they said that while they started the scene laughing, it quickly became something else, and that CB, in particular, was rather unnerved by the end.

I should read the comments first, so that I don't repeat what others have said. But I won't....

No to the first. Yes to the second. And I babysat Moses.

What should you do with your CDs? I don't know, listen to them? But maybe I'm just old. I also still write checks. I don't own a smartphone. And I still watch TV on a TV.

If I had Serena's body, I'd be reading that magazine, lounging on that chaise. But I'd be naked. :)

I rolled my eyes too, when I saw this story. And that NYTimes article was laughable. But I would suspect that there are people reading this very thread who are rolling their eyes at the "complaints" that others are posting here about their living situation. Everyone here is probably better off than someone too. More…

I thought that she was either joking, or using sweatpants as a symbol/metaphor for something else.

I'm confused, so I like your explanation a lot. But to/for me sexual attraction always requires an object, or stimulant, if you will, and is not just about biology or physiology or whatever. I don't see how a person has sexual feelings without having something generating those feelings. Even if asexuality refers to…

This is a good analogy. I'm sure the answer to this question is in the original post, which I confess I still don't understand, or in the responses somewhere, but if asexuality isn't (necessarily) about a lack of libido/sexual desire, then it seems like "asexual" isn't the best term? Asexual people aren't…

This just seemed like a normal work/business conversation between people to me. Maybe the two men don't interrupt other men during a conversation, but I doubt it. At work, people, male and female, interrupt - politely - each other all the time.

Congrats! The London Sessions really is a great album.

It seems like Kathy has said a lot worse things about people than what was said about Zendaya. Everyone is free to hop on their high horse, or draw their line, whenever and wherever they want, but Kathy sort of looks like a hypocrite here.

I didn't ask the question, but it had occurred to me while reading this thread. So thanks for your response (which makes sense to me).

Man, I loved the movie "Bowfinger"!
