Thank God THAT was finally laid to rest!

Hutsell says she apologized to Bialik for the sketch, who responded with “I release you!,” which Hutsell took to mean that her apology had been accepted...

Who is giving their employer’s legal advice? This is a massive lawsuit waiting to happen. His family have nothing to do with the murders. He has not even been tried yet, let alone convicted. 

Yeah, I mean, unless someone can prove that they had foreknowledge of this and did nothing, this is entirely fucked up.

While the fire starter is a bit practical if you really need it, the idea of putting it in pillows or as packing material is kinda gross since the trap collects any loose dirt and other items you don’t want and that did not get removed during the wash cycle.

I do this, but let’s not kid ourselves. Unless you wear and use exclusively natural fibers this is burning plastic.

I’m currently playing through Part II for the first time and it’s extremely compelling to see Ellie as an absolute psychopath. If anything the show is laying down a proper foundation that makes it more believable and less dissonant that Ellie is brutally murdering the hell out of everyone in her way. The “this isn’t…

I am not sure I agree with this take - I don’t think Ellie “likes” violence for violence sake - I think she, like many characters who tend to be violent, is drawn to it because of the power it allows her to feel over a world in which she had largely been powerless. I don’t think its unreasonable to assume that many in…

They subverted the usual evil pastor trope somewhat by David basically admitting the preacher thing was just a ruse to maintain control over the sheep who followed him.

—It’ll be a crying shame if this show gets overlooked at the Emmys, this episode should be Bella Ramsey’s submittal

Attempted sexual assault. As soon as they captured Ellie, that horrible thought did flash through my mind, but I figured the game never did that and the show wasn’t going to, you know, to a 14 year old girl. Still, very, very traumatic to Ellie and she’s probably gonna be haunted by her own justified rage: you could…

I do prefer that they maintained Christianity as the “cult”, I always think it’s silly in dystopias when a new belief system is created when you know people would just lean harder into puritan horribleness.

A few years ago, shit like this would have clearly been the work of Harvey Weinstein playing press games to try and drag down EEAAO’s Oscar chances. Like, smellable from ten miles away. But now it’s just the internet.

Instead of the Colbert Bump she gets the Goebbels Bounce.

So this is the new GOP grift? Lying about being Jewish?

“Family served in Nazi army” is a +5 poll bump in Florida. 

In my Hebrew school, they called them “Jews for Jesus”. Anyway, why is she dressed like she’s off to Hogwarts?

Please stop trying to normalize the term “Messianic Jew.” There’s no such thing. They are Christians, full stop. 

I think one of the themes of the episode is that when people lose everything, they still reach for the closest match for what they used to have (hence the reference in the title of the episode: “Alone and forsaken by fate and by man / Oh Lord, if you hear me, please hold to my hand”), so maybe the idea is that…

While I was a bit taken aback the detour with this romance, I couldn’t believe how solidly it was written, directed and most certainly acted. The entire setting of a near complete small town fenced off from the catastrophe outside a was akin to the strawberries that brought them so much joy. But you could see in that…
