"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

K & B? Don't even know what that is.

ION, I've been taping the Leftovers but hadn't seen any up until tonight. On a whim I watched tonight's episode (I figure if it's compelling, it will be compelling if I have to go back and catch up). It definitely held my interest but boy howdy this may be the least fun show I've seen in a great while. It makes True Detective look like Friends I swear.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Is Walgreens not prevalent in northern Louisiana? It is here in Arkansas and in western Tennessee.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It is, I think. I just miss K&B.

Ann, that's a ferret.

K & B? Don't even know what that is.

K&B was the big local drug store chain in New Orleans. Their shopping bags were dark purple. A shade I still think of as "K&B purple."

Sad to hear that they got swallowed up.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think that K&B closed just before I moved to New Orleans, but a bunch of the other drugstores that took over their locations kept the purple shopping carts.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

The Leftovers is total depression porn TV. I've been watching it and while it holds my attention, I don't enjoy the show at all.

I can't with True Blood. All the way done. I want them all to die now. Except LaLa. He can survive. And maybe Jason because he's pretty and there was that one time when he was made of awesome.

I might care about Tara's weird afterlife thing? I'm not sure.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm studying LaLa for fashion tips. Everything else is stupid.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

We're catching up on the previous season of True Blood, and I am SO NOT OKAY with what happened to Terry. It felt like the writers being pointlessly cruel.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Not sure if I should put this up here or back in Cable Drama where we used to discuss it, but the new episodes of The Killing are up on netflix today!
