I sure hope not. That’s also where I draw the line. What I don’t understand is why people just stay put in Canada. Yes, it’s convenient to be right there in case the person you love escapes. I get Luke wanting to stick around for June, for example. But if Canada starts being too nice to Gilead, why not leave? There’s…

My theory is that 1) yes, any Marthas still found alive in the forest, or remotely suspected of involvement go on the wall, 2) you can’t kill the handmaids, like you said, so 3) all Marthas and handmaids in all of Gilead go back into the system, and get reshuffled and reassigned to different parts of the country. This…

Presumably Gilead still has nukes that the US had... I mean unless they’re really anti nukes they could threaten Canada with that...

The Swiss emissaries mentioned to June that Canada feared Gilead’s military power, which it “inherited” from the US. That presumably includes a very large nuclear arsenal.

I hear Gilead has a pretty nice fireworks factory

She's far too lazy for that. Also, her husband had a plaigarism scandal and went off on Seth Meyers on Twitter in a homophobic rant, and her father-in-law worked for Ryan Zinke. She has more baggage than SHS.

She and Huckabeast may be considering running together

They could run on the same ticket!

Celebrities often wear the same outfits so that paparazzi cannot sell their photos. It looks like all the photos are taken on the same day and become worthless. Daniel Radcliffe did something similar http://mentalfloss.com/article/501844/daniel-radcliffe%E2%80%99s-clever-trick-evading-paparazzi

Acne Awareness Month? Zit just got real.

Once, I met a cowrker’s husband for the first time, and as I shook his hand, he said with great conviction, “Our son is in theater, and Laura and I think that’s great.”

This will get buried in the greys, but whatever.

And at the end of the day, be a pro about it. Steve Carell’s star power far outweighed The Office before he was done with it, but honored his contract because as he said, “I signed up for seven seasons”. Melissa McCarthy, Jennifer Aniston, others had to do the same and handled themselves well and their Hollywood…

I never heard that about Clooney, but it wouldn’t surprise me. And I know that I heard it about Ashton Kutcher, which always made me like him more. (Otherwise I’m neutral.)

There’s always a way that you can negotiate yourself out of a contract privately. I’m sure Wu has options that she could pull if she wants out even if she just wants to negotiate a reduced episode count for herself or something along those lines. It’s doing it publicly that is never going to earn you points - not with…

Yup--my fault! I misread. Pretty creepy. Sorry, everyone!

If I remember correctly, their relationship was terrible for her. He was significantly older than her, controlling, emotionally abusive. I’m also very curious why her family has such warm feelings for him.

Ugh, Britain is brutal. I once saw a scrum of paparazzi there so large that I never actually figured out who they were haranguing. They were like a swarm of killer bees.

While I do pity celebrities for their lack of privacy, my sympathy only goes so far—the privilege of anonymously holding hands with someone while we walk to CVS for toilet paper probably isn’t the joy Pattinson thinks it is.

Should I point out that Pete has a serious mental illness, and that living with a parent is maybe not the worst/most pathetic idea for an employed, single adult who struggles with suicidal ideation and other self-harm issues? No? We’re going to continue making fun of everything this person does, even though he’s…
