I have a cousin who likes hunting and guns and keeps lots of guns in his house. I haven’t been to his house in decades, so I have no idea how safe those guns are kept. If I had to guess, I would say he’s probably pretty responsible because he has kids and I know his wife wouldn’t put up with that shit. But anyway, we

All while ignoring that she was responsible for the largest part of the incident--the fact that he had access to a gun at home. He could have been enraged at being ignored, in over his head in class, and have the worst ADHD in the world, and he doesn’t shoot anybody if she doesn’t give him ready access to a handgun

It’s OK, conviction or not, we know it in our hearts to be true. 

Sanditon probably should have been cancelled after its first season. It didn’t really get much better in seasons 2 and 3. You can pretty much tell in season 1 when they run out of Jane Austen’s material because the quality of the writing and plotting gets so much worse. Theo James probably saw the writing on the wall

Sadly, nope, you can’t legally call him that (I mean, you can, but the press and other public figures cannot). This was a civil trial, and the jury found that he was not liable for rape. He was found liable for sexual assault, though.

I’m glad it’s back and glad to see a positive review. I’m bummed because this season-long review means we won’t be getting individual episode recaps. There’s really nothing to talk about with the show at this point. Episodic reviews let conversations develop over the course of a season. I miss the days when recaps

Re: Aluminum foil recycling: Single-stream and curbside recycling in this country is so broken that I doubt a ball of aluminum foil gets recycled. If the recycling center can’t verify that the crumpled up foil is clean, my hunch is that it has to be considered contaminated.

The Winds of Winter novel, unaffected by a film and TV strike, “continues to be priority number one,” if anyone was wondering.

Yeah, I think that’s more likely, too (and I’m totally here for that). I remember that Jesse Armstrong or somebody said once that Succession is a show that tells you where it’s going. It’s not trying to pull a fast one or building a mystery box where viewers are asked to figure out what unexpected thing is going to

I hope this episode wasn’t foreshadowing that something is going to happen to Tom tomorrow, like he collapses and dies while at ATN working on election coverage. It feels like something a lesser show would do to dial up the drama, so I don’t think it’s in the cards. But whenever I see a show return to a physical

I have really enjoyed watching Kendall revert to type progressively over the last three episodes. The confrontation with Rava to me was just the culmination of everything he’s become: grandiose without much reason to be, full of empty bluster, perpetually incapable of focusing on the things that matter. He is much

Take that approach at your peril. Republicans are actively working right now to assure that demographic change doesn’t loosen their grip on power. Just look at Ohio, because it’s what all other Republican led states are going to do in the next few years—they’re proposing that you need 60% of the voters to approve a

Live in Ohio. Can confirm: it’s cheap to live here, for the most part. But living here comes at a different cost. You’ve got to live in a fascist red state that Republicans are actively trying to strip of its core democratic principles. But my brother did just make a killing selling his starter house for almost twice

I laughed about that, too. You can’t make this shit up. 

I kind of wish they would go that dark, but I doubt they will. I’ve been kind of waiting for the episode where Midge deals with Lenny’s death, but with the way that time moved in the last episode I don’t think we’re going to get that. If that’s the case, my mind is blown. Midge’s largest comedic influence, and the

10/10, no notes. Would watch. 

Ooooh, I hadn’t thought of that. That makes a ton of sense, too. 

Me reading this article: So they’re just replacing one actor. Why are they calling it a Whole New Thing?

This. They had a relationship, maybe a business partnership. But it was never a friendship. Mostly because Midge is an asshole. But also partly because Susie is stubborn (and not terribly good at business for most of the show). Midge views relationships as mostly transactional, a trait she picked up from her parents

The show is at it’s best when it’s running it’s own version of Total Football, one that realizes that the character of Ted and his vision of Richmond is what the other characters have to function through. That’s not to say that all the ensemble needs to constantly be interacting with Ted, but that when characters get
