Same. She is my favorite actress, but it hurts that it’s taken so long for her to say even what little she has. Between her and Elisabeth Moss, my favorite actresses are indeed problematic.

I want to watch, but I don’t know if I can. This week has just wrecked me emotionally...I at least need a break.

You and all the other concern trolls can miss the whole entire point somewhere else.

It’s baffling. That athletics department needs to burn.

Landing on his face probably produced a much better outcome than landing on his outstretched arms would have. He would have definitely dislocated/broken something.

I agree; it was worth it IMO. Tad Boyle is usually outspoken in his beliefs, and I’ve always appreciated that. Although I hate CU with every fiber of my being, I respect the guy.

Melanin does not fracture.
