Thank you Anna. I can’t believe they pulled this shit, like we haven’t been paying attention for the last fucking year plus.

I may honestly end up waiting, though with the sure to be tense family events this holiday season, I’m really not sure how well I’ll be able to hold my tongue about any of my views re: the election if it’s brought up by my sure to be racist family members. In spite of all of it, I’m very close to my mother’s side, but…

I appreciate this, truly. I’m still on the fence about the whole thing; I can see my mother being shockingly alright with the whole me being in love and planning to someday marry a girl, but that it won’t impact or change her politics in any meaningful way. I would probably still all but cut her off if so, but I’m…

Trying to keep this in mind, but the things I’ve been hearing from my sister (a 17 year old high school student) about her male classmates and how they’ve been happily crowing about Trump all week have been scaring the hell out of me.

It’s so frustrating. :( Unfortunately she’s originally from Washington state, and the undercurrent of racism and white first is really prevalent in her.

I want very badly to take this tack with the people I know who voted Trump, but I’m very afraid they won’t see the light otherwise.

I deleted two, maybe three people before hesitating. I’m also burnt out, and am struggling for words, but I don’t know what else to do but keep trying to reason with them.

Right now, the struggle for me is deciding whether to come out to my family members on facebook. Small potatoes, but I’m trying to think of ways to explain to people I’m struggling to trust and care about why the last twenty four hours have felt like such a deathblow. I’d been holding back on it, because my…

I haven’t even seen it yet, the very early things we heard about it were interesting, but I honestly don’t even remember it being in theaters? Not a great sign.

I know other commenters are going to complain about this movie and how shitty they think it is downthread but I’ll fight every single one of them, I’ll fight my mom, I’ll fight myself. I love this huge ball of cheese lovingly hand carved into ye olde double decker VHS tape of yore. I goddamn love it.

They need to hurry up about incorporating more Marvel into Disney parks, I would immediately consider dropping some of my hard earned cash to do the kind of meet and greet people pay extra for with the princesses with say, Steve or Bucky or Sam. Don’t they do luncheons or dinners or something with Cinderella? Someone…

All of my feelings about the person who was cast aside (and rubberstamping for me that I won’t be seeing this in theaters and may choose to actively avoid seeing it otherwise in years to come), knowing what I know now about JKR seeming to be walking back even further on Dumbledore’s backstory re: Grindelwald, I…

Won’t be able to vote until tonight, I moved the weekend after Labor day and didn’t want to fiddle with changing my voter registration info until after the election. So I have to drive about 40-ish minutes to get to the polling place in my previous town with my girlfriend, who’s getting off work early tonight to do…

Really, this needs to be a prestige cable channel show, there’s just too much for it to be a movie, or even a series of movies. Most of Neil’s work is like that, by nature of how he builds his narratives.

There are times you can see Seth hiding his face or cheating away from the camera to keep from corpsing, it’s honestly my favorite part of the whole movie.

Well, I guess I will be among the first to say that I’m still really excited about this. I don’t necessarily think a movie/tv show/etc has to be super desaturated or filled primarily with a neutral/dark color palette to get across the dark nature of the subject material. In fact the more I think about it, the more I…

Where did I say LGBT people don’t encompass every human type of existence? Of course they do, it would be idiotic to argue otherwise. I just think LGBT actors can often bring nuance and depth to LGBT roles. You are free to disagree.

No one has ever said that, but okay. There’s no reason why we can’t elevate LGBT actors who often struggle, still in this ‘enlightened’ age of 2016, to gain roles once they’re out. Why not allow LGBT characters to be played more authentically? We literally lose nothing when we have more LGBT actors in LGBT roles.…

Well, looks like I have a solid reason to give friends who try to talk me into watching this movie with them.

I both agree and disagree. I do think that Carol’s reaction to the Kingdom was in character, but after the shitshow she’s been through since season one, I can’t fault her for expecting the other shoe to drop.
