“Cyntoia Brown committed, by her own admission, a horrific crime at the age of 16,” Haslam said in a statement on Monday.

I devoured the podcast going between “How can she be so dumb?!” and “Don’t judge the woman, she clearly just wants to be loved”. I was kinda excited for the show, but wasn’t totally riveted by the one episode I saw while staying at my parents’. Now I have to find a way to watch the others to see how they play the rest…

OMG THERE’S A SHOW

Same. I felt bad for her until her daughters’ lives were being threatened and she didn’t seem to care.

“If a male staff needs to enter a female room, they need to bring in a female employee with them.”

Wait. 

The show is absolutely worth it - Connie Britton is genius at playing bizarrely clueless lead, Jean Smart is excellent as shitty enabling grandma, and Eric Bana does a really good job as Mr. Charmingly-Smarmingly. I listened to the podcast when it first came out so I’d forgotten about a lot of the details which are…

My mom was in a short term rehab after getting out of the hospital for a heart bypass. I had to raise hell just to get a doctor to examine my mother - turns out she had pneumonia. I really doubt anyone would have noticed or cared until she was on death’s door if I hadn’t said something. They also gave her food with…

“Possible” abuse? How the heck is this not “definitely” abuse?

I think the show is really well done and I love the cast, especially Juno Temple. I also listened to the podcast and it is a little repetitive if you know what’s coming, but it had been enough time between the two so I was a little hazy on the original details.

I listened to the podcast squirming in an attempt to not be so judgemental about how stupid that woman was. 

Harry Potter and His Other Personality... The Monster

Thirteen year old me had pretty terrible taste in men. See Johnny Depp, Kirk Cameron, Scott Baio, and that boy in my eighth-grade class who become a hedgefund bro and helped break the global economy.

Bernie Bros who hated Hillary with a misogynistic furor created a sexually hostile work environment?

“I couldn’t control you,”

Agreed. Unless the smell was causing me to become nauseous or something (and even then I’d just ask them to not do it around me), I wouldn’t ask them to quit drinking or eating certain things with me. It just seems kindof petty, “If I can’t do it, no one can!” seems like a jerk mentality, but to each their own.

Good god, that is hideous.  It looks like a sad grade school classroom after all the decorations have been taken down.

It looks like a community hall. 

I didn't know norm core was also a decorating choice. 

I, as an American working in immigration law, would also like to be left alone in Canada.
