It could be in flashbacks, but I think Chekhov's giant shard of glass and Lolly's perceptive paranoia will save the day for Alex. At least, I hope so! I know a lot of people got irritated at Piper/Alex this year, but I really liked what the show did with them: they're selfish, drama loving liars, and once they're…

She stole, what, $6,000 worth of money? Which isn't nothing, but it's not max-worthy.

And turtles are jerks- they really do bite your toes.

Though at least the smiling pig is offering himself up to be eaten (implied). Not like that race traitor, the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Yeah, I genuinely don't get this as a news story. The beginning, middle, and end of that story is "she has some kind of mental disorder".

That's fair. Piper can't know what a horror show that apartment is. Though as the designated rich white lady, she should have the self-awareness not to tell people that money doesn't matter. You can know that you're privileged without understanding all the finer details.

Is it just me, or is the AVC getting worse at this? I feel like it used to be not great, then there was a push to clean things up after a few too many comment boards turned into "here are the exact sexual positions I would use with the actress pictured above". It was great for awhile, but recently I've been noticing…

They had a fight, he went off hiking, didn't come back, and she thought he had run off because of the money worries. She didn't know he was dead til the police came to question her.

I took that Piper/Daya money conversation as one more sign of Piper's obliviousness. It's nice to say that money isn't everything, and that all a kid needs is love, and that Piper and Daya both ended up in Litch anyway, but that's Piper (once again) blinding herself to the privileges she had growing up. Having your…

Bankruptcy attorneys, repo companies, reality TV trolls. He single-handedly keeps the gold-plating industry going.

Dad dies, leaves us 2-3 times our deficit, we start a few businesses, lose our shirt a couple of times, wind up with just about enough to pay our deficit. Bam- best plan ever.

It's a helpful shorthand to let you know how old he is. Like how books from the 1920s spell it "to-morrow".

They should be thrilled I'm binge watching TV. Instead of a "hey, you're really watching a LOT of TV" message, they should test out a "hey, do you want to order a pizza?" button, or a "What if I just texted your friends to say you can't meet them at 3pm?" popup.

I thought it was all the same story. The unifying storyline is that Chang is largely invisible. This bothered her when she was young, but she grew to accept it and now it's her greatest strength, because she can do whatever she wants in prison (watch Chinese soaps, eat oranges, make corn-and-pea fritters, shut down…

They jump cut right from "I know what I want!" to the guy hogtied in the warehouse. I think she worked her way up in the smuggling ring in between flashbacks, but that Gallbladder dude was explicitly her favor. For a second I thought she was going to ask for moonwalk to marry her.

She did try to blow up a guy who dumped her. She's delusional, but she's in a different category than Watkins or Yoga Jones or Flaca.

For real. I watched Nymphomaniac a year ago and it's still suggesting a bunch of freaky soft core porn, usually when my mom's nearby.

I love how endearing she is and how awful she is simultaneously. On paper, she should be even worse than Larry. She works for the TSA! She's always the first to be a loudmouth jerk! And yet, I love her sooooo much.

Who can remember, man? I don't trust myself to post anything new, since I watched the entire season in two sittings. Netflix asked me several times if I was really a person watching TV, and not just a TV that someone had accidentally left on for hours. Who are you to criticize my life choices, Netflix?! We all…

I always enjoy it when it turns out one of the characters is a major criminal badass (Rosa, Chang, Miss Claudette, Morello) and not just a well meaning person who made some small mistakes (pretty much everyone else).
