   Big assumption there! My husband and I mentor the heck out of some young people. It’s been a while but I used to teach a guest dance class for kids, and he teaches art.

   They are all repeats, unfortunately the author is dead.

   A lot of places have started charging return fees because of people doing that. While it always struck me as jerk-like, I don’t see what you’re supposed to do when women’s sizes are basically random and the size chart bears no relationship to reality.

   You can buy it online while standing in the bookstore, boomer.

   I did a little research on Karen trying to figure out why she seemed so out of touch with modern life, and it seems she ended up as a principal? So, apparently she has every opportunity to observe actual young people, but possibly is completely lacking in insight?

   The thing that is so stupid here is THEY REBRANDED HER THAT WAY. It was Bets who decided to spin “nothing person” into “blank slate full of potential. Voila, you are done, turn in the assignment.

   I honestly thought the Discovery Klingons were one of the two good things about Discovery (the other being Michelle Yeoh). It beats, “hey let’s pretend black people with forehead prosthetics are aliens!”

   Just as long as they don’t have Luann turn out to be the never-heard-of-but-superior-to-him sister of a much more popular character created by other writers, be completely misunderstood while saving the world, then attend her own funeral so she can see how much she was loved before not really being dead, they will beat out Discovery.

   You know, the mention of Eliza Doolittle got me thinking about what Bets and Tiff are doin wrong. Higgins had a goal, it was measurable. They haven’t asked Luann what she feels her current self is stopping her from doing, and set goals. That’s why this is just a makeover. If the goal was, “Create a YouTube channel for Luann’s cause with 10k followers” or “get Luann into a sorority” or even “get Luann a tinder profile that gets swipes” they would have a metric to measure success. This is just two girls saying they think she looks better.

   I’m sort of hoping that when they’re 40 they look back and think of this as the most romantic thing ever.

    And yet, there are a non-zero number of otherwise high-functioning people who are friggen nut jobs about one thing or another. Don’t they deserve representation? My feeling is GBT, living where he lives in the circles of people he lives among, based her on real people he knows, just like the other characters. Wealthy people who are into channeling may be more common in California than Tennessee.
