I think those episodes are generally not meant to fit into the narrative of the show, although, now that i'm thinking of it, didn't Hannah or Marnie mention The Panic in Central Park during the episode in Poughkeepsie? This particular episode is like the Isaac and Ishmael episode of West Wing. There was a topic Lena…

So the conversation at the end after the show made it seem that it wasn't like he was a super villain who had planned this the whole time, but that he made the decision to pull his dick out sort of spontaneously.

His response was that liberals should stop taking the bait.

I feel like the anti-semitic part of the alt-right is what will eventually be their undoing. Bannon and Miller are going to eventually turn on Jared kushner, so how's that going to play out.

So I just watched this show on Netflix, and I kind of liked it. It was definitely cheesy at times, but for me, the bad part about Walking Dead is the zombies. Things are bad enough in this situation, I feel like I don't need something supernatural, and I thought Containment did a pretty good job of showing how things…

Well, Rory was essentially unemployed for a year, and flying back and forth to London. Where did that money come from?

Unfortunately, being bankrupt isn't anything new for him. I just really want to see him go down in flames.

Really? I was always under the impression that Blake Lively wasn't really a part of that crowd. I remember seeing an interview with Alexis Bledel about her living in Brooklyn and how she saw Amber Tamblyn every day. They hung out all the time. So I think she and Alexis Bledel are especially good friends. Insofar…

It made me think of another thing I read once, about this dwarf who was at a bar hanging out with friends, and some goon just came over, picked him up and threw him to the ground. He's in a wheelchair now. But it's like big idiots who have no respect and people who are smaller than them have little defense.

I think he's done real damage to his brand. I cannot imagine what is keeping him going here, except that he's in an echo chamber and he's so petty and small-minded that he somehow thinks he can get people to think he's as great as he thinks he is.

She was in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. She and Alexis Bledel are bffs. I think she's published a few books of poetry.

They're condescending.

Is there somewhere where we can get a list of all the businesses on East Cameron?

That's a ridiculous thing to say, on par with the Trumps saying that if Ivanka was harassed, she would find a new job. Maybe she shouldn't be harassed. Maybe the fault lies with the harassers, and not the harassed. Similarly, maybe writers should write better parts for women. She shouldn't have to find the one…

If anything, it seems like they're trying to take an even handed approach and not paint any single side as the absolute bad guy. Bayley is a victim of his training (or lack thereof) and the culture of the prison, and Poussey is sort of a naive innocent who didn't realize what sort of lion's den she was walking into.

And then piper beat the shit out of her. It was definitely more than just "differences."

I think the idea is that he's sick enough to have caught the flies, but was willing to hold a gun to her head and make her eat the mouse.

But even more so, then, it's in line with what we know about her character. Despite all evidence to the contrary, she thinks she can make some change.

I agree. I feel like given the number of tensions rising, plus the personalities of people like piscatella, the whole situation is ripe for some inappropriate behavior.

Daya seems so innocent, and Ruiz seems so calculating, that I can imagine it's just a power play to get her on her side, and further consolidate her position, and also use Daya if the need arises.
