Ooh, that’s even worse than I expected. I hate to do it, but I don’t think I’ll be watching anything more from that franchise.

I am SURE the producers are having her keep him on for drama. There’s that scene in the last episode where she says that she’s getting pressure from all sides but she’s the only person who will be blamed? And to me, that definitely read like she was pushing back against the producers telling her to keep Lee. Anyway I’m ready to be done with it. It’s making the show miserable instead of fun.

You are not wrong about the raccoon story, Jeanne. That is a super good point. I will keep a sharper eye out for that Tone in the future. <3

I know you are right, Michelle, and it would be totally interesting BUT I also am far too frightened to watch it. Like my worldview and my dream life are already super dark at the moment? And I think the Handmaid’s Tale would really mess me up. Maybe in the future, when we have a different president!

Hahahaha BUT WILL THEY? (That’s rhetorical. They will never stop acting like shit.)

Hahahahaha, this is my favorite comment. You are the best.

Are you a John Green fan? I like some of his books better than others (er, obviously, I guess?), but I am interested to see what this book will be like. It sounds good! He draws a lot on his own experience of mental illness, apparently.

I wish that he were! I think he has good intentions and just doesn’t want to put in the work to do actual modern feminism? And I wish that he would do it, because it would make his work stronger, and that would be great since PEOPLE KEEP HIRING HIM.

Katie, I am such a dumb naive bunny that when Ben Higgins insisted they wouldn’t deliberately have chosen a racist to be on the show. I was like “well he’s met the producers! I haven’t met the producers!” And then it turns out they reached out to him to cast him in the show. He did not audition. >:(
