Joan...As a fully grown, pansexual female who has done a lot, and has let a lot be done to me, THIS ARTICLE IS TOO FUCKING MUCH.

Was this article just an excuse to be an exhibitionist regarding your sex life?

Honestly, Marie Antoinette was MUCH better dressed.

No. No they don’t. The adults in the family need to be tried and jailed and have whatever real assets they possess to be seized. I’m 100% behind that hope.

Only slightly related to your point, but I am stupidly in love with The Windsors on Netfix.

This is dumb. At no point in his time as commander is Li Shang interested in Mulan; if anything, it’s the opposite (though she would never approach him).

People with autism feel emotions like joy, they just don’t show their emotions by their facial expressions. He does have that flat affect.

This is just like the Young and the Restless - Victor is always pitting Victoria and Nicholas against one another.

One thing that must be understood about narcissistic parents is that they frequently pit their kids against each other. The special bond between (normal, healthy) siblings is seen as a threat to the parent.

The relationship between Mike and his dad is really touching. It was one of my favorite things in the book. It was one of the only healthy and loving parent-child relationships that I can remember.

they include some crap they shouldn’t and then change a key element in the book for some bizarre reason (okay, the reason is racism): the only Black “loser” in the club is Mike Hanlon, who, in the book has a smart, responsible, and supportive father (and intact family—three generations); in the movie, his parents are…

I just watched the original made for TV and honestly, it was way better than than either of the new ones seem to be. It wins on camp factor alone. The interspersing of the scenes as children with the adult flashes is really all we needed. This seems like it’s overstuffed and super confusing.

2 HOURS AND 50 MINUTES?
Sweet Christ on a cracker.
If the movie people are going to keep on doing this, we need to bring back the intermission.

I extremely grateful this was cancelled. We have enough sociopathic Boomers already. The last fucking thing we need is another cultural reference point signaling to them that it’s ok to be a fucking sociopath.

Without parallel the most deranged pitch I’ve heard in a long time—and I work at Splinter.

...United by forty years of deregulation and self-absorbed voting, two millennials finally have enough and create a computer virus that deletes all wealth from every bank in the world.

Leight departed shortly afterward and Apple, which multiple sources note is looking for aspirational programming, wanted to ensure the series was focused on the heart and emotion of the central friendship.

How did this pitch get anywhere beyond, “what the fuck?”

...the fuck? That synopsis gave me a nose bleed.
