“The fact of the matter is that we’ve all ended things with someone a little unkindly and we’ve all had it done to us.” 

My guess is that what they are hiding has nothing to do with the murder, which is why Jess was willing to help him destroy the journals. I think Dylan might be a small time drug dealer, and Erin wrote about it in her journals. Otherwise, how could Erin have excepted a teen with no apparent job to come up with money…

I agree, except that I think maybe Carrie falling asleep while bathing the Drew sets us up to accept that in the finale Mare and Carrie may end up in sometype of shared custodial agreement.    Mare already realizes she has to make nice with Carrie to see her grandson, and Carrie is also realizing she needs the…

But the baby wasn’t conceived in 2017, unless the show is supposed to be taking place in 2019.    I think Erin states the baby just turned 1 in the first episode.  

I’ve been trying to figure this out. They never say how old Ryan is, but show him attending middle school. That could make him as old 14 (some middle schools in PA go up to grade 9). The baby had just turned 1, so it is possible for Ryan to be the father. It just seems unlikely to me, now that we know something…

I didn’t get sexual abuse vibes from that scene at all, but perhaps that’s because I feel certain that Ryan is the killer and his dad helped him cover it up, which makes the conversation make sense.    I don’t believe that it was infidelity they were talking about.   Lori jumped to that conclusion, and Ryan let her…

I think it was Ryan Ross that killed Erin also, and his dad helped him cover it up, which is why he acts guilty and explains the secret. Ryan might have been trying to kill himself in the park with the gun that night (remember earlier that night he was trying to finish his homework on a Friday as if there would be no…

You’re right. Billy is Erin’s first cousin once removed, and would share about 3% of her DNA. I’m not sure this would be noticed by this lab, or considered unusual in such a small town where many people are likely to share a similar level of DNA.    

Serious question - isn’t saying Gadot is “incapable” of acknowledging the existence of Palestenians because she used the word neighbors instead of Palestinians a very good example of “jumping to the most bad faith conclusion”?

“He should be the adult here, but I guess we’re past that point now.”

This is a vanity project for Jenner, but it’s great for Newsom . She’s eating up the media attention that other Repubs might get in this recall, and destroying any chance of a successful recall. Cox had to bring a bear to a press conference just to get some attention, and Faulconer, San Diego’s former mayor who got…

This is very good advice. The school district could not possibly do anything with a report like this, and Teenage Cave Artist is best off, legally speaking, not interfering in this man’s relationship with his current employer.

Getting some Peter Thiel vibes from this casting news.

Specifically for me, I think.  I will be watching.

I’ve been meaning to watch this, and now will! Miracle on 34th and Wonderful Life get all the glory in terms of old Christmas movies, but there are so many great rom-com gems that get overlooked! The Shop Around the Corner, The Bishop’s Wife, Holiday Affair, and An Affair to Remember are the first ones I watch each…

Except the 1.43% figure is now for cases since the shut down. It’s for cases diagnosed between September and November, when indoor dining was reopened.

Brown had no plans to run again (and did not).

Thank you for writing this. I grieved over the loss of my fertility around age 40, even though I had not been particularly keen on having kids. And I kept that to myself, as everyone in my life believes that I “decided” not to to have children, and I don’t want to destroy that illusion. It’s bad enough being pitied…

I love this movie and watch it every holiday season.

The apopleptic response to Biden’s victory last night is just incredible to me. Mainstream democrats also dream of universal healthcare, affordable childcare and college, expanding rights for LGBTQ+, compassionate immigration policies, etc. We’ve been dreaming about those things for years actually, and working hard to…
