I agree with everything you are saying here and I realise I am supes late to this particular party, but ‘Big Ethel’? She is literally average size (so slightly larger than the other, teeny tiny, CW ‘perfect’ female cast) and also referring to people by their bodily characteristics in general, ie even if she was ‘big’,…

lol of course!  clever.  thanks

What was the significance of Blaine’s 365 degrees message?  I didn’t understand that at all

Re: the actor who plays Sadie, I didn’t know this and looked it up.  Apparently Izzy Stannard was assigned female at birth but now identifies as fully male.  I actually think this was a cool casting choice for a gender non conforming character, presumably Stannard can bring his own experience of this to the role and I…

I didn’t understand the end of this episode.  Why are they unfreezing prisoners to turn them into Romeros?

Or even better, they could have taken it to the vet, or a shelter. Maybe it could have made it with specialist care. Instead they take it out the back and kill it then tell their daughter who loved it a completely transparent lie. No wonder it fucked her up.

plus, I don’t get why they wouldn’t let her try with the last little blind kitten - yes, there was a good chance she wouldn’t succeed but it might have ameliorated her grief to know she had done all she could.

I wish they would post trigger warnings for that sort of stuff.  In books too.  As a very sensitive person who loves animals, this kind of shit leaves me inconsolable and there are images in my head I can’t now unsee :( I don’t see why it’s even necessary - for instance if there’s a serial killer type character we all…

They could look at the potential for becoming a zombie (to cure a terminal or life limiting condition), then taking the cure to become human again, too.  Would reverting to human status mean reverting to the illness too?  Or would the temporary zombie status permanently remove the condition?

Those two Fillmore Graves guys they pretended to execute?  Who did the drive by shooting at Warmbloods?  What were they injecting them with at the end?  I didn’t understand that at all.

I think the loose lips thing was that he was a compulsive over sharer (kind of like Soju and her cyst on Drag Race!) as evidenced by him immediately sharing that he cheated on his wife with a stripper called Roxy who gave him gonorrhoea.  Selling out someone who helped him and cured him of his Parkinson’s is a very…

When Marin first went to Mosswood, she told Heather later that they had talked about Heather’s mum and how evil cancer is (and Heather was angry with her for discussing their personal life).  So I’m presuming Heather’s mum died of cancer.

Have you never heard of institutional racism? White privilege? The myth of meritocracy? You are basically arguing that there just aren’t very many talented people of colour because the casting process is completely unbiased and would hire them if they were talented enough. If you believe that you are dangerously naive…

No, because white actors are already in literally all the roles! The issue is that people of colour are massively underrepresented anyway, and then when you cast a white person to play a POC, you’re taking away just more of the already limited opportunities. NB i have not seen Ghost in the Shell and I don’t know the…

I didn’t read them as being ok with it, just that they were poor women with few options being exploited by rich men. Like the fight to the death married couple who did it to feed their children. Sadly the poor and marginalised have always been vulnerable to exploitation and done very unpalatable things just to survive…

michaela to tegan: “i could hold your bag while you mingle?” ok, i get it was a ploy, but what a weird ass thing to offer to do for someone! does a handbag impede mingling? i would be very suspicious of such an offer and suspect robbery.

did he know laurel had just arrived?  i didn’t get that impression that he heard her, he was just panicking and running for his life; he definitely didn’t see her as he was a floor below

what did oliver mean when he said he was worried they’d find connor at the bottom of a well and ‘putting the lotion in the basket’? is this some youth lingo that’s passed me by???

with enough ageing makeup?  40 is hardly geriatric!  the actor looks in his early 40s to me and wes in early 20s so i thought it tracked

with enough ageing makeup? 40 is hardly geriatric! that’s how old i thought he was supposed to be - to me he looks early 40s and wes early 20s so being his dad tracks to me anyway
