Ryan's Hope Discussion Thread
The whole story was tawdry and desperate. I don't even remember if Kimberly was of age. To almost immediately have Seneca lusting after her took the story to a place it could never recover from. She always felt very badly grafted onto the show to me.

A godawful human being loving a godawful story. What a surprise.

He's just trying to hide his assets. The worst part is so many still deify him and insist he was right on everything.

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread
That was Gemma. Lachlan caused a car crash that killed his mother and grandfather. Later on he killed his friend, Graeme. It was that moment that made me finally stop watching Emmerdale on a regular basis.

The last I heard of Cox was a messy breakup with Jay Mohr...that and her plastic surgery issues.

I love this ad. @SFK @Khan you might enjoy it too.

The Media/Journalism Thread
I imagine Vanessa or Beverlee's Alex cutting Elon down to size, or Lucinda and Emily/Kirk/Connor vying over his business, or some big confrontation with Victor, Jill and Jack in Genoa City. Really though Elon Musk is like someone out of the mentally scarring last years of Passions.

The Media/Journalism Thread
I think the people who believe Musk is being backed by those who failed at making the many, many, many "alternatives to Twitter" viable and now want to rot away Twitter itself are right. Over and over these grifters and hatemongers made a show or announcing that they were leaving Twitter and never did, because they did not want to live in ghost towns. They will do what conservatives always do - destroy everything. Some people may be hyperbolic, but I do think a lot of Twitter users will leave if he takes over, just as many people abandoned tumblr when it made drastic changes in the late '10s.

Thanks. Considering that Ron clearly saw all of that as great fun, I am not surprised.

Another month, another post complaining about how unwatchable the Desi and Damo story is, and how it never, ever seems to change or take a pause. If the finale of this show is a nuke being dropped on the hospital, Desi would be the one survivor, still going on and on about her [!@#$%^&*] wedding.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Sometimes when I go around on Housewives Twitter, I see someone whose Twitter handle is named after Vicki's ex-husband, Donn. I believe they even have in their info that they are a parody. It cracks me up when people reply, incensed, assuming he is the real Donn.

Knots Landing
I suppose that's true for many of the vets. I still cringe at some of Dobson's work in those years, before he improves a bit for the Jason story.

Knots Landing
Seeing this again for the first time in years I am reminded of what tender, layered performances Donna Mills was still capable of giving by this point. Michele Lee is very up and down, which spoils the scene a tad.

DOOL: Spoilers, 18-22 April
I hope Greg Rikaart puts Patrika Darbo on his Christmas list for calling him a young man. Speaking of Leo, did Craig ever find out that Leo sexually harassed and assaulted his son-in-law?

Brad Pitt was a mega-star at this time. They were going to put his photo, rather than caring about accuracy.

The Politics Thread
I read this a few hours after seeing a self-appointed expert bloviating about Biden's poll numbers, with one bullshit statistic about "empathy": That so many influential people like this cry blood tears over alleged lack of "empathy" for the TV cameras while not giving a damn about Afghan refugees being neglected is just one of many reasons I have basically given up on this country.

The Politics Thread
There's so much numbness and apathy out there now. You have the GOP as a whole calling all lgbt people groomers, all teachers groomers, any Democrat or even Republican who doesn't go along with them groomers. You have the impending end of abortion and birth control. Yet most people just do not care.

This is just a [!@#$%^&*] joke. I hate this paper and everything it stands for.

Does Ohio have third party rules or write in rules? I keep thinking that is where Nina would go. She is clearly just running for money and attention. She's a proven loser, multiple times over. The way she vacated her podcast so quickly makes me wonder if she has burned her bridges in that grifting world as well.

He's a delusional grifter. I've rarely seen anyone have so many chances to win people over and consistently show his ignorance and elitism.

A New Day in Eden
@dc11786 @victoria foxton @Paul Raven @Dion @SFK @Vee This was uploaded several months ago and I missed it. It's a quasi-complete episode of Loving Friends and Perfect Couples. As you can see from the closing credits, there are some scenes which were edited out in the rest - whether the original owner of the episode was cutting things out for sexual content or some other reason, I'm not sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ih8aZ9QfHw This is so typical of the 'intellectual' soft porn genre, even with the edits...fascinating to watch. I think I am especially fascinated seeing Paul Hecht, who will always be Rosanna's stuffy father on ATWT and Jane Curtin's stuffy ex on Kate & Allie to me, getting a whole lot of ass, including with a woman half his age.

ATWT LEGEND KATHRYN HAYS PASSES AWAY
I remember reading some articles about the recast. I think one said Kathryn ended up returning to the role sooner than expected.

This channel uploaded some 1984 partial episodes that I think had been on Youtube before, then got taken down. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyL3IxB9hjr_g-dTmZ7ErEw/videos
