Yeah, there was a certain frisson watching and knowing she filmed the scenes just before her death. I haven’t looked, because I don’t want to spoil it, but I wonder if we’ll see Albert, since Miguel Ferrer also recently passed.

What I love most about the tree is that it seems to have been something thought up on the spot after Michael Anderson refused to reprise his role. Think about the thought process that asks the question “How do we write around not having this actor?” and answers it with “We’ll turn him into an electric talking tree.”

I consider a personal attack when people say he’s doing “interesting, innovative music” - and I’ve read this here from more than one commenter. Like, have you been living in a cave and deprived of music your whole life? THIS is innovative to you? *facepalm*

I think one reason my parents go so well together is they flat out admit there is shit they cannnot do together. Stuff they simply do not like or cannot do. Like mom really dislikes animated movies while dad likes them almost as much as me. He know she does not want to go to see it and simply goes alone or if I’m…

(I assume anyone who’s gotten this far doesn’t mind spoilers, but just in case: SPOILER)

Maybe the pilot is a tick.

This is a fantastic movie, and I found it to be a brutally empathetic portrayal of Laura. I hate scenes involving any kind of sexual assault, but the terrible one with Bob/Leland was so squirmy and horrifying and It felt necessary to understanding her character and the movie. I think that made it particularly…

Plastic earrings in Connecticut? NOCD*!

Yes, but blood on a cut avocado will prevent it from turning brown.

I’m just going to drop this in the middle of the firestorm of comments, because you are lucky enough to live in the UK:

I think you can go to any less developed place on Earth and find people using local remedies for ailments, both because their families always have done this and because they cannot afford over the counter or prescription medications.

The first rule about your divorce from Angelina Jolie is YOU DON’T TALK ABOUT YOUR DIVORCE FROM ANGELINA JOLIE!

why doesn’t she confront Deborah at the hockey games?

Speaking as a librarian, I’m grateful that our field exists for this very reason. As soon as cheetolini was inaugurated Data Rescues have been organizing all over the country. These are events where developers, librarians, archivists, information junkies of all stripes get together to scrape at-risk government data as…

Only semi-relevant, but: “So I Married An Ax Murderer” is the most underrated comedy of all time.

You should stick to failed comedy attempts (aka grade school sarcasm) and leave the thinking to men.

I could spend a good afternoon ranting about various wrongs done to me about my empty oven! Like every time I go to the hairdressers. And the question, “did you just not want them or...?” (You better fucking hope it’s not “or”, how devastating would that be?). So if you want to rant consider this a safe space :)

Thanks! I’ll go back to yelling at clouds/kids on my lawn now, as is required by my oldness.

That’s so offensive (“bullshit” is mild!!). I can see how you would struggle to come back from that. I hate the implication that we are somehow “lesser” than couples who have kids.
