Me thinks they were more related to the people that had Pinochet flee. Gus suggesting they had their backs to the wall and then Peter doing something amazing that saved them all...and then I guess Peter flew back home and Gus immigrated to Mexico in 86 as Hank found out (something Mike couldn’t even, Gus’ face to

Yeah, that’s an angry, impotent lil’ guy who ::scans posts:: is just (ostensibly) BIG MAD that Bernie lost the nomination. And worse - O THE TRAGEDY - people were MEAN to him! ONLINE! ::gasps, clutches pearls::

And with lots of white people dying!

Indeed there is no job worth dying for. Which was brought home (literally) to me two days ago when the Instacart shopper guy delivered some groceries. I recognized him. He’s a black kid who might go as high as the third round in the NFL draft. (we can argue about the NFL some other time) Here he is risking his health

Amazing cast in this. I would not have thought of Tracey Ullman as Betty Friedan but I think it works. I have always liked her as an actress.

Remember how the whole GOP and conservative “pro-life” movement went bananas over one white woman in a permanent vegetative state who was being taken off life support in accordance with her previously expressed wishes?

White privilege is often just about the only kind of privilege they have, which is why they cling to it so tightly. The wealthiest in this country have long known this, and in fact, invented white privilege precisely to keep their boots on the necks of the 99.9% of any race.

And when they are interviewed, most of them are not even talking about being back to work. They talking about not being able to buy seeds and fertilizer, to go to the hair-dresser, missing free drinks at the bar and firing Fauci.

Why?

Taxes on the rich were also 70-90% from the 50s until the late 70s. Ironic how they say they want to go back to where there was a middle class and yet those they vote for keep lowering the tax rates for the wealthy.

“It’s the Tea Party all over again.”

Sure, but it helps make doubly sure (white just seems to be actively inviting trouble stainwise, in anything, not just underwear) and as a bonus it helps offset the “dorky-looking” factor.

Thanks for the tip, that’s what I was hoping to hear!

Everlane, the CIA, Madeline Albright, Playboy...

Jimmy’s always had a rat’s instinct for abandoning any sinking ship he finds himself in. I very much fear that what’s left of Kim’s highmindedness and drivenness will cost her now that she’s chosen his kind of life.

Walter White’s reaction to the whole Gus-Lalo feud: “Why don’t they just use ricin? So much easier.

My new pet theory is that Kim Wexler ends up as “the friend of the cartel.” It’s crazy, but hear me out:

What a great job of subverting everyone’s expectations. For the past 5 seasons, we’ve all been worried about “poor little Kim”. Now, she turns out to be the real villain. I did not see that coming!

I've been rewatching Breaking Bad just for this moment. When Jesse and Walt kidnap him, he says "It wasn't me! Ignacio did it!" And then assumes Lalo sent them. I feel like the writers are good enough to bring it all together.
