Ah! Lucky Cat, siblings help. I am the only daughter, and the only one living a conventional life. My brother is in and out of sobriety.... so the pressure to perform “good child” adds to the mix. My bestest friend had 20 people in her parent’s livingroom and refused to wear white. Some people are lucky,some face what…

As someone celebrating her 6 month anniversary who had ~150, and issued ~190 invites... I bid you good luck. The trauma/drama/stress of fighting not one, but TWO mothers on who is and is not included (BUT SHE”S MY SISTER THUNDERCATS! MY SISTER! I DON’T CARE HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT HER POLITICS! YOU CAN NOT EXPECT ME TO…

LOL. I know right? I’d be right there with you like... dude, we’re Jews... we were going to die, the question was when and how? Also... death by drowning is my biggest fear - coupled with my fear of sea creatures. So it would be a perfect storm of tortured to death. Way to go Gilead.

OK! My googling turned up that... both in the book and Hulu... what happens is that Jews are presented with two choices:

No argument from me. I agree on all the above, plus the whole thing had major loop holes, particularly the playing into the teen view that adults are just so stupid, cannot help, cannot understand... there were so many things they could improve upon.

I’m only through Ep 3, so I don’t know yet - I saw the scene you’re speaking of. But they also show that a Catholic church was destroyed in Boston and mention that NYC tore down St. Patrick’s... I am not googling for where the execution line came from. Stay Tuned! But, if you want to join us, welcome! We forbid bacon…

that is amazing news, and will severely be impacting my next target run. Thank you!

How long have you had it last? No snark, I love me a deal... I also worked for Michael Kors during school, and have had my fair share of Marc by Marc Jacobs, Kate Spade, MK, and Coach bags over the years... and I have always had stuff made from true leather last much longer. When you skip the monograms, the trendy…

Yes! If you are not already, listen to Gilmore Guys podcast. They get into a lot of this as well. Fabulous. I’ll watch, and rewatch. but as I near Lorelai’s age in the early years... and am Rory’s revival age... I just see it all different, again. I think its good. I can rewatch and grow, and the show still holds a…

She grew up in it, and it seems like from what I’ve read she may not be active... but is not willing to turn around and outwardly castigate her family and family-friends who are still participating members. Which, can at times be a common theme for people whose family is religious of any sort... no? That’s been my…

I’ve been questioning this too... was it Bledel or Rory who sucks? Is Bledel’s blandness not a poor acting job, but a reflection of how much Rory is just NOT the woman her mother hoped to create? Is Rory just lacking in substance Having had a mom who sucked all the air out of any room she was in? Is Rory more damaged…

Hulu made that coffee... but same same

This is so heartbreaking to me... the book exiles us to Israel... but I hear we’re executed in the Hulu version. Why?! Why this change? Its adding an extra chill to an already chilling and horifying thing

I am so happy your daughter got some of the help and support she needed at the time. I hope she continues to. It’s a long road, but its good that she has parent(s) who are with her on it.

I think that is WHY she flipped out... because of her own guilt about the rape. And she was projecting that feeling on to Sherri... and the stop sign. Which, FUCK that ending Jeff, who was such a good dude.

Yes it was! As a former Social Worker (haven’t parted with the SN).... who worked specifically with high school/teens, and sexual assault, I was SCREAMING at the TV the PROPER suicide assessment and resources. Frankly, it does not matter who raped Hannah... if she doesn’t want to report it and get a criminal…

Which, I’m afraid is the focus of season 2... given that it ends Season 1 with a disgruntled student, who did not pine for or feel bad for Hannah... but was harassed by the other 10 members of the tapes, and so he builds up an arsenal of weapons.

(1) LOVE the name Floorgasm.

K...but why financial compensation? The royals need the cash? I don’t get it?

Yeah; I just hate the idea that because you don’t love who the organized religion said you’re supposed to you shouldn’t study it. I like studying religion. I also like when leaders say fuck you, your rules make no sense and we’re doing this better.
