Can a truly egalitarian society exist within a monarchy?

Ticket sales don’t open until 2/14. [She said, setting up camp at her computer for the next 48 hours while eagerly munching giant pretzels]

You’re basically ‘#AllLivesMatter’ing my statement. You clearly do not understand the meaning of that phrase. Obviously we need to learn from history. That’s not what I’m referring to. For example, by today’s standards smoking is clearly unhealthy. However, to call the people in 1775 idiots for smoking, is pretty…

Nothing wrong with judging History by today’s standards if it means that we learn from History.

There’s been too much forgetting about History these days.

One of the best articles I’ve ever read on here.

Oh man.

Her website crashed hardcore.

Good for her!

It was the cherry on top of a lot of cheap references to the other shows in this episode. We’ll see if they go anywhere interesting with it in Season 2. Personally I gave up on caring about how they try to shoehorn this series into TOS continuity several episodes ago.

Lil’ Sebastian is in the Bad Place. He was actually fully capable of controlling when and where he relieved himself, but intentionally did this in front of thousands of people, including children, because it got him off

There’s one scene where Lupita is in heels, but it’s warranted. Mostly when fighting, the women are in boots. Danai has this one pair of gold boots...GIRLLLL! Ruth Carter wasn’t playing that game!

You don’t need to see the other two to follow the (nonsensical) plot, but they are a must if you want to feel underwhelmed.

Remarkably stupid comment, thank you.

He was making a classic Italian chickencello.

I read it as “remove the skins and add [the skin] to the container of vodka”. All the extra crispy fried stuff is only on the skin, so that instruction to get the extra craggly stuff wouldn’t matter if you weren’t using the part that had it.

Since I’m still in the greys over at i09, I’ll leave this here. I love you’re writing Evan, and I am super stoked for you. Can’t wait to get your book.

Yeah, this one seems the most disconnected from the MCU outof all the MCU tv shows, and it’s probably better that it stays in it’s own little hub considering how many inconsistencies there are just in the way characters react to things that should probably not be considered impossible.

The answer is that this show isn’t in the MCU. I know they say otherwise but literally nothing hints toward it, even when it would make total sense to. This show barely seems like a Marvel based show much less an MCU one.

So, I simultaneously think that taking a full season for the kids to run away was the right choice, and yet the series did it in all the wrong ways. They just wasn’t enough plot here to justify a full season. They made some smart choices - like rounding out the parents and adding more conflicts there - but then…

This was the episode that made me actually angry at the pacing and focus choices of this show. When they started writing this show, they had to have some idea what would be the core narratives heading in to the final episode and what were the central relationships. So if they knew that and were planning on having…

If someone had told me at the beginning of the series that it would take them 10 episodes to catch up with the second issue of the comic, I would have assumed they were joking.

“Trust us, this is going to get good after like seven full hours of wheel-spinning” doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence.
