& don't say Bridgerton, cause that was ONE plus-sized woman, & it was only after YEARS of chasing, when she begged 'kiss me so I won't die not knowing what it is to be kissed' & suddenly he's in love with her?

Fuck off.

....there were others but I'm tipsy and it's almost 5am.

My point is, so many stories of 'ugly' men being accepted by hot women.

Where are the stories of ugly/fat women being accepted by hot men?

....

Seriously, I'm waiting. Tell me.

An insight into my pedantism.

Wanting to make one of my stupid comics based on Neil and Tom's BG3 stream tonight. But I must first ensure I have a good image of Asra.

I could just chop them off above the text, but noooo. I have to use the entire image.

It took me LONGER THAN THE STREAM TO DO.

Also Ludwig Göransson is one of my favorite modern film composers. Everything that man does is magic, and he puts so much work and research into his compositions. He's very sensitive to the cultures he is entrusted with.

Doesn't hurt that he's also very tasty... 😂

A wonderful breakdown of the music in #Sinners. One of the things I really loved about this movie is how they used music, while frustrating me because I knew the music was saying more than I understood (layers within layers).

Agreed, anyone who goes on 'reality 'TV & thinks it will solve their problems is clearly operating under some kind of misapprehension & they are doomed to disappointment.

Given how long 'reality' TV has been around, you'd think people would be more aware of that fact...

🎶 He had it coming. He had it coming. He only had himself to blame. If you'd've been there, if you'd've seen it, I know that you would have done the same! 🎶

Hmm, it's almost like 'reality shows' are exploitative & don't actually care about their cast...

Why suicide is still the shadow that hangs over reality TV

The death of Hana Kimura, who had just taken part in the Japanese reality show Terrace House, is another tragic reminder that action is urgently needed

You mean you & your parents didn't sit on your roof & bask in the weak sunlight, neither parent watching either young child, trying to look all dramatic?

"the appearance of two children, now six and three." - from the article. Yep, they have kids! Of course they have kids? You know why?

Because people like this are the kind of idiots who think kids will make the relationship better.

Baby steps, they're just learning. Don't wanna overwhelm them at once.

They're great, really insightful and no politics!

I had no idea they were Mormons until they covered Heretic, and they still judged the movie on its merits (if I recall, they were impressed the writers knew so much about Mormonism)
