      Walky doesn’t seem to have parsed that emotionally he and Dorothy are through with her being entirely okay with that. He fell in love with her and, well, she didn’t.

        You have that the wrong way around. Dorothy said she loved him and meant it, he said it because ‘he was supposed to’ and Walky feels guilty because he literally jumped from Dorothy to Amber with like, a day maybe between and I don’t think Dorothy knows.

      I read it as him feeling sad that what he had with Dorothy was over and still being all emotionally tore up over it. He may also be deciding that Amber is just a rebound. Heartbreak does not go away easy.

              Dorothy needed to go to therapy afterwards and Amber’s condition got significantly worse because of that.
              That’s not good. It’s actually pretty bad.

                Relative to “dude doesn’t get stopped” it’s pretty good. Relative to “dude trips and manages to hit his head so hard he ends up in a many-year coma” it’s been pretty hard on the other characters.

        I didn’t perfectly understand her reasoning. I heard something in between “I need to become president of the USA instead of having a boyfriend” which felt like “ohhhhhkay” and “I don’t feel super good about enabling your ADD non-studying and co-attendant self-loathing.”

        On some level Walky could be missing her hot, hot body (even if Amber has a hot hot body too, one can appreciate both!) And maybe more complex feels about missing what was and might have been even as he’s happy with some of what he has with Amber too.

          I didn’t see any of the latter. She spend a bunch of time worrying about what was going on with him and then some time trying to help him study. I don’t recall anything about enabling him.

          She did feel bad about jerking him around and not sticking to limits that she’d set herself – “just for fun” turning into “love you” and “the pause was a lie”. I’d actually like to see a bit more of how she’s dealing with the aftermath and with her basic conflict of her emotional needs fighting with her plan.

            I think Walky was definitely feeling guilty that Dorothy was running herself ragged tutoring him with no success on top of all her extracurriculars to make her resume look nice for Yale so she could become president. (I don’t really look forward to Dorothy actively realizing that the effort you put in and the qualifications you have don’t actually matter to politics. At the same time, it will be interesting.) And then Dorothy was still running herself ragged so they called the pause. But yeah, I think the biggest issue on Dorothy’s end was that she was watching herself shift those goal posts and it didn’t seem fair to Walky to get that invested when she still plans on transferring.

        I think it’s more of her saying: “No hard feelings”. Because there aren’t for her; she’s on top of it but Walky isn’t yet.

          We see one look from her and it’s very much a public face look. Hard to say what’s going on in her head. She might be on top of it. She might still be heartbroken.

          We’ve actually seen very little of her reaction post breakup and I’d like to see more.

      The hospital? Hell? Chained in Blaine’s torture basement?

      It’s an open question at this point really.

        I’m honestly thinking that Carol’s phone call does indeed mean she knows what happened to Mike.

        But also: batshit theory. Mike is being held captive on Joyce’s old block and this is gonna become a Waco thing.

      He’s in the basement of an abandoned house, holding the bad dads at the bottom of a disused well, threatening them with a hose, and making them rub lotion on each other.

      Apparently he was Amber’s imaginary friend who ended up sacrificing himself for her. That’s probably why you’re forgetting him, just like whoever it was from Inside Out was forgotten.

    There are some ex’s you’ll never truly get over, Walky. I learned this the hard way. *wry smile* All you can really do is remember the good times you had together, and that you broke up for a reason. CLING HARD TO THAT REASON.

      As for Dotty, I ship her with Jacob.

Here's an entertaining cite at the bottom of the first page
The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
603 U.S. 593, 630 (2024).

You Can’t Even Watch A Movie Anymore Without Seeing Some Theme Explored
I’ve loved movies ever since I was a little kid. Just stepping into that dark theater, with the smell of fresh popcorn, was like being transported to a whole other world. It used to be so magical. But now I’m thinking about boycotting movies altogether. Why? Because I can’t seem to watch one anymore without […]

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.
AI generated ad by a company called Travello showing the 10 most visited cities in Europe, except the cities are hilariously poorly placed. London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.

wilbur, savvy enough to know he's in a comic strip but still not a great actor, awkwardly lifts a muffin up into frame so that we, the audience, understand that he has a muffin right now, which is very important narratively, but he's not really selling it well as an organic, human action
