New Book Makes Allegations of Racism And A Toxic Workplace BTS of Lost
I'm not sure I can handle reading about Sleepy Hollow. The BTS bigotry was very apparent onscreen. I've never seen a show work so hard to destroy its own popularity. It still enrages me. As for Lost, like so many others, I was really into it for the first two seasons but there was never any real payoff. I will say that part of what turned me off of Lost was the absolutely toxic shipper wars. When they talked about the Jack/Kate/Sawyer triangle I got PTSD and once they added Juliet, it became a quad that ate the show alive. Many you know I'm a vet of some of the worst of the soap couple wars and even I couldn't stand it. You couldn't discuss anything about the show without people hijacking the conversation to fight over who Kate should be with. It left me with bad feeling towards all the actors involved. I really feel for Perrineau. His character became kind of a punch line. He was the guy running all over the island screaming "WALT!!!" That said, I completely understand how Malcolm David Kelly's growth spurt screwed everything up. He shot up like a weed. The takeaway there should be don't cast children in time-jumping sci-fi shows.

I think we've seen enough over the last few years to know that nothing the NY Times reports about Democrats should be trusted. Meanwhile... I loathe this lazy entitled trash more every day and I still don't believe he'll serve a full term.

So much political news dropping and this thread is crickets. This stuff is exhausting, isn't it? I've been politically active my entire life and these last few years have been tough but this thread has been such a blessing through it all. Anyway...congrats to E. Jean Carroll.

These folks have so many enemies and this is turning into the opportunity of a lifetime for people who have been holding a grudge. If someone who knows Leo is leaking, the floodgates are open.

So much dirt is going to come out about SCOTUS. That whistleblower is someone who used to work with Jane Roberts and saw her use her position to screw the rest of them. These Federalist Society types have no doubt made serious enemies of lots of people. People who will be more than ready to shiv them now.

At this rate, half the members of the GOP primary will have to schedule campaign events around their court appearances.

Fox can't admit to guilt because it would open them up to liability in the Smartmatic lawsuit. Also keep in mind that Prince Harry's suit against the Daily Mail is still underway. Hopefully Murdoch will have to keep paying out.

Why did John Fetterman pull a shotgun on a Black jogger?
-
The Politics Thread
I never claimed it was either/or. Just pointing out what progressives find acceptable vs unforgivable. Sinema's thumbs down is unforgivable while Fetterman's act of racist violence gets handwaved away by "allies."

I can't help but notice that as a Democrat, I am expected to reject Kyrsten Sinema but embrace John Fetterman.

Vincent Irizarry's son is being sentenced for his role in the Insurrection.

I'm sorry but they aren't going to be able to pull this off. Fetterman is looking at a month in the hospital for weight loss and lack of appetite? Nah. That's now this works.

I already see this being spun as some kind of asset to him but the truth is he's not up for this job. I never thought he'd serve a full term but at this rate I doubt he'll make it to the summer. He's been at this job two months and has been in the hospital twice. I'm just glad that Josh Shapiro will name his replacement.

I actually want Twitter to die. It's just a misinformation firehose and it's made the Beltway press lazy and vicious.

But that's the Catch-22 of it all. No matter how much the administration publicizes its work, the press refuses to cover it. We need more people to hold the press responsible.

After the insanity of the last two primaries, I'm so happy to see this.

NETFLIX: "Harry and Meghan"
I have a lot of thoughts about the second half of this series but first I just have to see how amazed I am to see Abigail Spencer in the middle of all this. It's just another example of a soap actor breaking out and that always makes me smile. Especially actors from AMC. I'll always miss Pine Valley.
