Same. I’m a mother and shows about kids or parents dying are a trigger for me. I see how killing a kid is an easy way to show that someone is EVIL but it feels like they are falling back on that a lot.

I think this was a mistake on the part of the writers. Maybe it really was emergency conetraception (ie, morning after pill), which was written on the package (EC) and which is what the school nurse said she got. But, the school nurse said she was pregnant, in which case the medication would have been the abortion…

Good point, and I kind of thought about that after I clicked send.

Jessica Jones quibble: Patsy is her friend, not sister. Still, I am sure excited for it to come back. And I hope she does more detectiveing this time.

Exactly. Oprah seems like a very caring person, but her endorsement and propagation of “woo” is really terrible. It doesn’t tell me she has common sense or critical thinking skills, which is something I look for in a leader.

I’m sorry for your situation  :(  It’s how the creeps get to keep their jobs and the good people get forced out.

Not for Weinstein, but plenty of people are saying it for Louis CK and Al Franken, amongst other “low level” harrassers.

I just posted this elsewhere, but this NYT article from today is very relevant. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/12/business/sexual-harassment-human-resources.html?emc=edit_nn_20171215&nl=morning-briefing&nlid=55863425&te=1&_r=0

Here’s a relevant article from today’s NYT about how ineffective and probably self-defeating it can be for a victim of harrassment to go to HR. Which is one reason why my blood boils every time I hear some d-bag complain about why didn’t a woman come forward sooner. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/12/business/sexual-ha…

I don’t know what that is, but I already know I’m for it.

People have been handwringing about whether an accused abuser (man) should have his career ruined for one “mistake” and yet many people aren’t thinking about the thousands of women whose careers have derailed because of these assholes. I feel so upset for these two women, and know that it happens in literally every…

This year I discovered and read almost the entire catalog of Haruki Murakami. 

Then you might as well go with a cup of water.

4 months late, but yes, Jessica has to be Sophia

I agree, I thought the best two parts of the episode were sign language bullshit, and Susie kicking out the interpreter. Susie was all around awesome this season. And I think now that I know the sign for bullshit I can die happy.

That was my favorite part. Go Susie.
