Yeah, I thought about that at first but also: Sonja is really unstable.

Side note: it kinda seems like more of the dick move on Sonja’s part to try and ride the coattails of Bethanny by co-opting her “___ Girl” marketing. I love Sonja to bits, but she’s always looking for the easy-money way of doing business rather than putting in the time and effort, so it kinda seems like she’s just…

Here’s my thoughts.

The blue glow on Finn’s face is one of the coolest parts of what we’ve seen, so I really like that it was a practical, not digital effect.

Who brings a girl they’ve known for 3 weeks to meet the family for Christmas?

“Why isn’t the writer smart enough to avoid the link between this subject and a recent horrible event?!”

The fact you didn’t include the guy eating eggplant parm by himself is a crime. I know it didn’t quite fit the theme, but goddamn, it was the saddest story ever.

In my opinion, the real thing is actually more fun than the fake, because rockets are the best.

The most amazing thing about this one is, usually, the fake story attached to a picture is more interesting than the truth, not considerably less.

And the CGI looked awful, especially in the first trailer. The whale was embarrassingly unrealistic.

TBH it just looks boring

I haven’t read the source material or seen the film but, as my boyfriend said after seeing the trailer “I think they might have misjudged the public’s attitude on the practice of whaling in making a movie where we’re rooting for whalers.”

The things people have made so far blow me away. I’m over here struggling to make a decent square house

She was awarded for her medical bills, that coffee was well into dangerous temperatures and caused third degree burns on 6% (eta actually it may have been 16%) of her body. It almost killed her. She was in the hospital for 8 days and needed skin grafts. She originally asked for her medical bills but they refused.

So, you created an account just for that whiny, passive-aggressive bullshit? Sort of like calling someone to tell them you’re giving them the silent treatment?

Race is very important in this case because he specifically chose victims on the basis of their unlikelihood of being believed, and a major component of that was that they were black. It was unclear whether an all white jury would take the word of all black victims who were also poor and had criminal records over that…

His sister started selling “Free the Claw” T-shirts.

I too found his reaction jarring and chilling and sickening in a way I couldn’t quite articulate. A true monster, crying like a toddler, looking for sympathy. The distance between that tantrum and taking his punishment like an adult is just... stunning and enraging.

18...out of 36. Don’t get me wrong I’m glad he’s been found guilty at all. I had my doubts the jury would do the right thing . I know there’s some nuance here about why he was found guilty of only half of his charges that I’m probably missing. I just would’ve preferred to hear “guilty on ALL counts”. Still, watching…

Watching that monster cry and shake was the closest thing to any kind of justice I’ve felt in a long while. Fuck him and may the brave women who shared their stories find peace.
