You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

KotSK ep 2 got better

I’m torn between wishing I remembered anything of the plot of the books and being sort of pleased that I do not so it will all be a surprise.

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!

Has anyone watched Paradise? I saw an impressive disaster movie-style clip from it that might scratch an itch that's gone unrelieved for me since Godzilla Minus One, but if it's 99% a political thriller with the apocalyptic stuff just being the sizzle for trailers I don't want to waste my time.

I really liked Paradise! I’m not sure it’s what you’re looking for, although I haven’t seen Godzilla Minus One to really compare. I wanna say Paradise is more of a political thriller but it’s really well written and performed and definitely has apocalyptic elements.

Eta: also didn’t realize there’ll be a season 2.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I enjoyed Paradise a great deal and am looking forward to the next season. I feel like the plotting and acting are particularly well executed.

The Pitt: no rats this week. I am really liking the sister of the guy who got tased. The way she says “ok” every time she gets told something that she really wants to fight against but has to accept (at least for now) really conveys that she’s had to do that many times.

KotSK is getting good, but I gotta say giving episode 4 the title Seven is confusing.

Our wings are not tired.

Agree, T. The actor is REALLY good. It would be easy to go over the top and obvious there, but she’s nailing it.

Yeah, it’s a very understated performance but I feel like I know exactly how she feels all the time.

No rats this week, just hot dogs.

I’m not even mad for Louie. Sad, but some nice storytelling
