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

Also watched the first 3 episodes of Poker Face yesterday. Not as exceptional as that episode of The Last of Us, but a nice little life on the road mystery of the week. There are a lot of cute references to TV and movie detectives, but it isn't just that. It is kind of hard to think of the main character as Charlie rather than Natasha, but I am working on training myself.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

(That was weird, I didn't post anything)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cindy, I did leave Twitter permanently. Too much ick.

Ep 3 of The Last of Us gutted me. Offerman killed it. So much better than the game.

We've been loving Poker Face. It's definitely giving me Columbo vibes.

t- Episode 4 of Poker Face was definitely the best one yet.

Excellent!

Does ep 4 break the pattern of "watch a BIPOC character get murdered in the first ten minutes of every episode"?

(I really like just about everything else about the show but found that pattern REALLY hard to get past after three in a row.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

("Poker Face" calls up Weir skating to Gaga, and gives me a three-day earworm. Ne'mind. As you were.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Does ep 4 break the pattern of "watch a BIPOC character get murdered in the first ten minutes of every episode"?

It does, thank goodness. Maybe THAT's why they put out the first four at once.

Yeah—it was nice, if they are going to kill somebody every week, to finally kill a cis white dude.
