Jeeeeezus! So good. Thanks for sharing that.

I’m hoping they break the formula a bit this season, because each season starts/ends the exact same way: Just when Richard/Pied Piper seem to be coming up roses, Richard does something to fuck that up for everyone involved. Cut to ten episodes later and they’ve compounded his screw up while also redeeming it slightly

So, he respects his wife enough to get her permission before engaging in what would seem to be a mutual agreement? Because I know several couples who do that. Is that my cup of tea? No. Do I judge them for it.... a teeny, tiny, secretive bit, but I would never tell them they’re wrong or creepy for doing it. If that’s

Finally managed a total watch through of Stargate: Atlantis, and just finished the last episode. The series had a LOT of potential, and I adored the characters and their story arcs, but that series ending was a rushed, wasted mess. The show spent five seasons building this elaborate storyline and mythos, just to cram

Nothing like a good Ybor story. I feel like it earns real street cred.... born and raised there so I have SEEN some things.

Pssssh I wouldn’t even require a paycheck for it, either. 

Love that :-) I hadn’t even planned on going to the show! My husband was out of town for work, was home alone and being a Saturday night bore, when my best gal pal texts me... she was hanging out at the bar in the club before the show and not one, but two, of her ex’s were there. One of them, she’s cool with. But the

Godddddddd DAMMIT, now ‘Peanut Butter’ is gonna be cemented in my head the rest of the week. Granted, that happens all the time because I love that dumbass song, but still I curse thee!

I’ve walked out of five movies in my life, and three of them have been super hero flicks. Calling a couple of them “fun” is about the best I can say about the genre. I like taking myself to cheap matinees on my day off, so I’ll watch just about anything that looks mildly interesting... I love seeing movies in a

Surprised? No. Shocked? Yes, which I suppose is the point... but good lort. Spending that kind of money on a joke is a fine art.

Just looking at the foot arch hurts my feets.

I know the god known as Irony is the name of the game right now, but as someone who hates spending money but loooves a good shoe, I’m legit bothered by this fairly recent obsession with designers creating obscenely hideous shoes... and then people falling. all. OVER THEMSELVES to buy these hideous pieces of crap. And

Purple is my fav of her books :-) Beautiful through and through, and I find myself actively thinking about it now and then.

Love, love, love this book. Very much enjoy Nyong’o, but she’s absolutely wrong for the role. So much of Ifemelu’s story is the largeness of her body, and how comfortable she becomes in it, how much space she takes up in a world that doesn’t think women of color should occupy much space at all. Small gripes like that

Watched Iron Lady for the first time a couple weeks ago and just walked away kinda angry. Streep is a legend but I didn’t think she was very good in the role, and the movie just wasn’t very good either. Or well made, which was kinda shocking considering who was involved and how critics fell all over themselves to

Random stories here with no real connection other than what I was made to feel in the moment...

It’s the Anna Hathaway effect. It’s all I can see now.

Is she genuine? I don’t doubt it. She comes across as the nice, goofy sort. Does she come across as 100% calculated? Yes. Which, I get the whole “she’s been raised in the biz” mentality argument, but that’s also a personality type. You can tell she brushes her hair exactly 25 strokes on each side, never gets lipstick

Genuinely curious and a quick, lazy Googling delivered no answers... what’re his stances on/against/for black activism?

It’s a Luhrmann flick, so, it’ll be bright and bizzy and full of movement and utterly lacking in substance, performance, or seriousness of subject. How he and Guy Ritchie keep getting studios to hand them ridiculous amounts of money to make movies that leave zero impact on the box office or “state of the art” is
