Spoiler:

Yeah, I see Mulaney as less of a “Wife Guy” and more “vocally childfree.” Him cheating wasn’t the shocker; it was that a guy that centered a significant amount of his material around not wanting kids immediately knocked up a C-lister and 180ed into “family man” seemingly overnight.

Remember all the Bernie Bros that TOTALLY would have voted for Warren in 2016? And then when they had the opportunity to vote for her in 2020, trashed her endlessly instead?

I mean, “younger millennials” are pushing 30, so they’re not really the target demo here (but as an “elder millennial”, I could also just be salty that so much of this hot nonsense is incorrectly attributed to my generation).

Worked as a host and bartender at a fine dining seafood/ oyster bar for 6 years- the number of parents that came in with screaming kids and got angry when we had to explain why the seafood restaurant didn’t have chicken nuggets or booster seats was staggering. We often had folks rent out the back room for events as…

Not really. If he were 600 lbs, talented, and able to function for a 14 hour shoot, then he can bloviate about waiting until the end of time.

Maybe you’re chronically single because your shitty attitude seeps through every single thing you say and do- you ever stop to think about that?

Sugar and corn syrup aren't the same, which you'd know if you ever made one sauce from scratch. Sugar is needed to balance acidity- not a ton, but enough to temper the ingredients. I would hope you know there’s a difference between a Little Debbie snack cake and the sugar you add to bake challah, for example.

Shh, we have to bloviate about a shelf stable product having completely predictable ingredients! How ever will I display my rudimentary knowledge of cooking if I don’t sit and cry about devil ingredients sugar and salt?

Our middle/ high school hack was to take the basic chicken patty and add shit from the salad bar- spinach, cucumber, bacon, cheese, etc to make a full sandwich. Or, we’d ask for just the patty, make a salad, and cut up the patty as additonal protein.

By and large it doesn’t, because The Crown- while including certain historical events- is a character drama surrounding Elizabeth II and her immediate personal orbit. The purpose of the show isn’t self-flagellation over the perceived and real sins of the monarchy and its legacy.

That's really it. While error and shrink are probabilities, a 30k POS system with maybe 5k maintenance over a year is a hell of a lot cheaper than a body pulling 40k plus another 40% in benefit load- especially when that body is more likely to be unreliable and a constant attrition risk.

The thinkpieces aren’t even original at this point- it’s an endless recycling of Tumblr talking points from 2010. Medieval property designed to appeal to audience x does so? Quel Suprise!

I wouldn’t mind that if they at least lasted the entire season. It’s another function of aging up and de-aging the characters- Rhaenrya starts the events of the show at age 8 and Allicent is 18 - they weren’t really friends, and Viserys was only 29. But, Laena was still 12 when her marriage was proposed, and I believe…

People legit are either unwilling or unable to reconcile that a metric shitton of Black people are socially and religiously conservative. The ONLY reason they vote Democrat or don’t vote at all is because the GOP hasn’t found a way divorce their racism from their policies.

Kenneth Branaugh swings for the fences, and even when he goes into left field, there’s always something redeeming and coherent in his work (whatever, I thought Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein was well cast, but needed finese on the pacing and score).

The White Worm refers to Mysaria. Just like the masters after her, she has agents of “little bird” children in King’s Landing, but the title is more confusing here because in the book, she is so deathly pale that not even blood of Valyria would compare.

Sweaty, you clearly missed the part in the linked story where she has been pro choice for the past decade since suffering a miscarriage- she actively lobbied AGAINST the Texas law. If anything, she probably picketed a crisis pregnancy center. But hey, it's much more fun to come to the comments without the full story…

The one change I actually quite liked was Kevin Kline as Maurice. Maurice was written as comic relief and Don Hahn specifically called out that “hit on the head, underwear shot and pants on fire” was the formula for Maurice and LeFou. Changing him into this competent, sensitive clock maker added a sweet dynamic to his…

Surprised to see Beauty and the Beast so high: The changes made to the plot are either superfluous, confusing, or completely change the character journey, Emma Watson can’t sing, and the actors who CAN (ie Audra McDonald) don’t get a lot of screen time. Kevin Kline was wonderful, though and Maurice was probably the…
