If that’s the case - kudos to Sunny, lol

Apparently they skipped last Friday to promote the upcoming Men in Kilts premiere by running the entire first season…

I skimmed over the Buck/Roger/Jem/Rob/Bree parts in the books because I didn’t find them interesting, and I am still finding them uninteresting 🤷🏽‍♀️

@GHScorpiosRule - Jamie’s idea to show not tell, came from Claire describing the Japanese cutting through the forest instead of coming by sea during the war - she described it as the battle of Singapore

Did you know that Alyssa was on Fox News on Jan 7 after the insurrection? FYI, just in case you missed it the last 30,000 times she’s mentioned it this week…

Maybe there’s a drinking game in the number of times they say Remy in an episode? He’s so heroic…/s

I love how the response to the level of vitriol & racism Meghan Markle experiences from the British press is ‘but they live in a $30 million mansion , so it can’t be true’ - apparently AFG reads the daily mail, since that’s what they harp on all the time - ignoring that they have led the charge on crafting the narrative. I have no idea if MM is an awful person, but I’m suspicious that the only sources that say she is are the UK TABLOID press, and the seemingly unstable paternal side of her family who either don’t have a relationship with her and/ or have taken money from the tabloids to contribute to the tabloid narrative. Also, Harry is a grown a** man - stop with the ‘MM’ has destroyed the relationship between the brothers!

I’ve noticed since the new season started - all but the newbie are leaning towards Joy. Those closest are leaning away from Alyssa. She also walks out completely alone, far ahead of the others

Umm, you mean like Remy?🤣

A) Harry is a grown man, people need to stop acting as though he’s incapable of making choices on his own. B) all of the negative press about Meghan Markle comes from the British tabloids - not known for their unbiased (and I use the term lightly) ‘reporting’ and royal ‘sources’ who have a vested interest in ensuring that Charles, William and their wives escape scrutiny and always appear in the best light, no matter the cost. Dude literally threw 2 separate tantrums because his pen leaked, but instead the ‘reporting’ is focused on Harry being banned from wearing the uniform he earned or some imagined slight by Meghan because she raised an eyebrow rather than on Charles acting like a spoiled 2 year old. The only evidence presented that she’s selfish comes from very unreliable sources. She’s a convenient scapegoat for the royals. Say something often enough and in a loud enough voice, people will buy in. If you have any doubts, look at the republican party and their stellar ability to gaslight!

Is it just me or did anyone else enjoy the pettiness of hugs for Ana but everyone staying seated for Alyssa when they entered the stage? I’ll sit down now 😃

Maybe it’s my disappointment after reading Bees, but I’ve found this season tedious. I ended up fast forwarding most of the episode, but did enjoy the save by Ian at the end. That part deserved a rewind & rewatch. The rest, not so much!

Or maybe they didn’t have the same access as a white writer because their books were not destined for the regular stacks in bookstores or libraries, but the tiny sections dedicated to Black, Latino or any other ‘othered’ group that doesn’t receive the same promotion or publicity. Amber and Sunny were on point.

He fell while running for a cab, which implies he was trying to flag one down. You don’t have to run if you’ve called one and it’s waiting for you. Good episode! I liked that Robyn didn’t save the day, instead it was examining the evidence and how biases play into perception that led to the correct outcome. If only it worked that way in real life.

I enjoyed the discussion with Ellie Mystal today, and what he had to say.
