I loved the ending of TAR and the look on Amber's face, even though I had read the white font and was expecting it. I also loved the applause Gretchen and Meredith got as they made their way to the Not!Pitstop.
Mal: You were dead! Tracy: Hunh? Oh. Right. Suppose I was. Hey there, Zoe.

It's perhaps a little spoilery, but no more than the promos for this week's ep were.

What is even happening?
Xposted in Bitches. I hope that's not a problem.
Through the ages, before great advances in science and the medical arts, how did people explain conception and pregnancy?
I'm figuring the cause and effect relationship to sex was virtually always understood. But is there somewhere I can find some (dumbed down) scholarship on primitive and/or ancient theories on what happened?
I seem to recall before it was known that the male contributed the sperm and the female contributed the egg, that one theory was that the male sort of planted a whole mini-baby, but can't--for the life of me--remember which society, or when.
Any information and/or links would be helpful, thanks. I don't need in-depth stuff, fwiw.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
TAR: I wonder how long Gretchen took to find the clue in the metal boxes? Rob & Amber do have a lot of luck, but they also work for it -- getting to the box factory first put them in a good position to find the first clue.
They are going to be so damn tired for the next leg -- one of the things that makes TAR so damn tough is the travel fatigue, it really is an endurance race....

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Finally got around to watching last Sundays ROBOT CHICKEN, and oh my. Best one since the headless Ponch ep (imo). The "Real World Metropolis" and "Zombie Idol" bits cracked me up, and the KILL BILL parody had me doubled over with laughter.
Favorite bit: Jesus curing Daryll Hannah's bad eye before bisecting her. "Thanks!" "It's what I do."
Seth is a sick, sick boy.

Thanks for the link to the Project Trainwreck article - - it's great!
I owe the State of Illinois $1.00. I work for the State. Why can't they make it even? Why? So annoying.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It sounds like you need to steal a couple of pens from work, sumi.
