I was sure I'd see shit talking for his insightful reading of the Justin situation—more pointedly the lyrical way he described it.
I thought it was perfect considering that he *is* Duke Silver, and has the capacity to be writerly and musical, even with words.
"He's a toruist"
Damn

how is under the dome? it is currently pulling screws out of their anchors on my invisible bookshelf.

Okay here's the thing.
Real things in our lives stand as symbols, but that doesn't mean they aren't real or that they don't hold meaning. The two are not at loggerheads.
A rat in your apartment is both a rat and a symbol of poverty. When writers write (or any artist creates) they do so with a series of culturally…

i manage a used book store and plenty of copies of Then We Came to the End have come through. It is excellent, and should resonate with anyone who has ever worked any kind of job with other people, not just office jobs.

I'm thinking more 302

the guy who wrote it has two episodes from last season but no others for this season.
he also produced last call with CD so we know he sucks

nice save

RW:I thought so too
More love for Youk, who shows his excellent taste in TV and his funny bone.
He can show me his funny bone anytime

you may recall, she did not actually learn.

Betty Draper's Cigarettes
I liked how different men kept lighting her cigarette throughout the episode.
Talk about commentary on power and passivity, jesus christ bananas.

W in P:
I was also reminded of Pete and Peggy.
It was the doorways that framed all of their conversations; just like Pete and Peggy, their most important conversations took place at a threshold. Pete crossed it both times.

Her husband said he would never be a surgeon in NYC, brainless fingers, blah blah blah. He HAD to change his specialty, and if he was that shitty of a surgeon he would probably want to go to a specialty that is drastically different so his credibility couldn't be questioned as easily.

i thought it was weird and out of place too.

bars in the mirror reflection
Anyone notice the bars in the mirror behind Don in the hotel room (while looking at his banged up face in the mirror)?
The same image has been used at least one other time this season; on Betty's back as she paused in the hall walking to crying Gene at the end of "The Fog"
interesting, as…

I definitely got the feeling of her thinking of Don when she was kissing Duck. Not sure why, really, outside of the wistful "you have everything…and so much of it" line a few episodes back, and then the presence of this new, revitalized man who also seems to have so much.
Everything Duck told her was the antithesis of…
