Ironically, TOS tended to be much better at casting older women to play women their own age.
I suspect they thought they'd cast someone Maslany's age so they wouldn't have to do anything to de-age her when Caleb was a young child. But that was probably just an excuse to do what they always do.
I cannot emphasize enough that these people are being laid off for failing to do things that are literally impossible
So true. We have a drawer full of so many types, but every time we need one, it takes us forever to decide what kind. Which kind of defeats the purpose.
My mom worked in factories, in sales, in theater, all sorts of stuff. My dad was in the army, so my mom was always having to get jobs that were available wherever we moved to.
Yeah the only Boomer moms I knew who didn't work were older with husbands who had been in the workforce for decades and finally made good pay.
Yeah my Boomer mom and most Boomer moms I knew growing up usually had jobs to help pay for stuff.
I went to 11 elementary schools plus 2 Head Starts, 2 schools in junior high, and 4 high schools.
It took me years to recover from that.
I'm still bad at learning names because I grew up never seeing the point in learning a person's name.
In my experience, the white folks who don't talk about politics are either conservatives or liberals who want to remain friends with conservatives. Lot of my fellow white liberals are not as progressive as they'd like to think. It's a big reason they stay quiet about their racist friends and family.
Incredible
lol That's one of my favorite comfort films, mainly because of her
I grew up in the 80s, when Swaggart and the Bakkers were scamming poor folks, including my grandma, out of their money to get rich themselves. Watching that all play out and seeing so many Christians say that we needed to forgive them immediately pushed me away forever.
lol She called it a "sensitive topic."
I can't fucking stand my fellow white women who are like this. Because they fucking know exactly why they are being asked. It's the reason why she called it "sensitive" in the first damn place.
Iran War thread March 8.
All evidence points to US - my tax dollars - bombing the Minab girls' school in Tehran. That can't be changed by this.
And this is a declaration of intent to commit war crimes.
It will be no struggle to explain how it happened when people have been screaming it was going to happen for decades now.
Media guys like this ignored the folks screaming or labeled them extremists, but now want to act like it happened out of nowhere.
blocked its followers too.
Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.
Pixar, who made Finding Nemo, Finding Dory, Inside Out, Inside Out 2, Coco, and Up is suddenly worried about traumatizing viewers?
2000-2010 was absolutely rife with antihero-type leads on television. Usually white guys who were absolute dicks to everyone, especially women. I don't have a lot of fondness for that era of television these days.
Iranian hackers threatening to hack into the top 3 credit bureaus and wiping Americans debt… and I just wanna know who I gotta speak to in order to expedite this.
I live up the road from Selma. I think about this a lot, and how my mother was a teenager when this happened, and how that is *not* that many years ago.
I also think about how SCOTUS has almost destroyed the VRA & they're trying to drag us back there.
It's a big reason I do @romancingthevote.com
Yep. “Knowing who to be mad at is praxis” is Mariame Kaba’s quote and it is wisdom for these times. (1/2)
You should absolutely shame disabled adults and adults with adhd (I'm a member of both cliques) because it's very bad and harmful to EVERYONE, and NOT holding them accountable is ableism.
DEMOCRACY: "These three women sicken me. Other women have disgusted me, too, in the ways they sell out women and people of any color but theirs and prop up bad men and systems meant to hold women back," Donna Ladd writes.

Seeing so many replies with movies I saw in the theater, many as an adult, has been amusing.
For me, the best part of Breaking Bad was all the supporting characters. Walter White was the least interesting character in the show to me, and he just got more annoying as the show went on.
I wouldn't go this far, but my issue with Breaking Bad is Walter White got to go out the way he wanted to go out. And it was clear it was because Vince Gilligan was really attached to the character and couldn't deal with an ending where Walter got the ending he deserved.
Oh it's been so many years since I had the energy to care.
But I do remember the best outfit I ever had was a pair of dark jeans and this dark green turtleneck I wore in high school. It's when I realized I look really good in darker colored shirts.
The Shootist
I find it interesting that Don Siegel went from directing movies that made Clint Eastwood a star to directing John Wayne's final film.
A member of his species has been showing up all season. It's an amazing callback
Scotty was literally both. An engineer and a commander who was frequently put in command of the Enterprise when Kirk and Spock were on Away missions.
I can see Caleb becoming a great captain if he can overcome his understandable attachment issues.
