I've liked Ian Barford in many shows over the years, but this has got to be a career highlight. He's just so good. As is the entire ensemble!

If these white men had a better answer or idea, then they would have already done it. They ain't shit, don't have shit, and ain't gonna do shit other than complain about shit they're unable or unwilling to do.

They want to lead while unable to get a majority of their own demographic to follow.

Whole slew of white men could fall off the planet and I wouldn't give a green shit.

I'd feel sorry for her but I don't think she feels like she's done anything wrong.

I remember seeing a video (I think from Seattle but I'm not sure) of two young white women spraying graffiti on walls and a young Black woman telling them "This is our neighborhood, please don't do this." And the two white women began lecturing her on why banks and corporations are evil. Mkay.

In some cases, I suspect what they're really saying is "I expect to be able to cause messes and then have someone else clean it up."

Because they're addicted to status and have convinced themselves that proximity to power, no matter how abusive, is how that status is achieved. That's all I can figure out, at any rate.

The entire ensemble was terrific. I think the speech Michael Keaton had with his former classmate where he says something like "guess we just got lucky that we played hockey" (I may be misremembering) was just chilling because it was so understated, but you knew EXACTLY what he was feeling.

Exactly. I don't care who she sleeps with. I do care that she makes it harder for women journalists who are already facing accusations that they sleep with sources and subjects to get better stories.

Yeah, that was a point made in the film "Spotlight," as I recall.

I don't think I realized what Lizza looks like until now.

Right? I want people to have everything they need to feel secure and happy in their lives so they will LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!

Which also reminds me of how Jerry Sandusky started a whole nonprofit to prey on vulnerable boys.

Again, I am so sorry she didn't know how to activate the device that would cause a spontaneous extinction-level event among white men.

I guess for privileged white dudes, a woman who refuses to get out of the way and just give them what they want is "rigging" it. Fucking bitch.
