Eventually Robert is hiding out in a room of Khloe's house, he disappears for several seasons but his name comes up regularly as Kris says, often, that she cries herself to sleep "every single night" because one of her children is unhappy....

All of these stories share the same stump before they branch out on their own - they all center around someone who lied and created an entirely new world in order to obtain influence and take things that don't belong to them. They're Swindle Stories. Or, as I like to call them, Swindle P**n....

I want to be clear that I'm not over here arguing that what they did is in any way right, I'm suggesting that what they did isn't really bad....

What's that? You thought this was just about movies and TV? Nope. It's Reviews For No Reason - The Opinion No One Asked For. None of you asked for it, but here's my Review of Prop 22. I'm going to do my best to leave opinion out of the backstory here. If you're already well versed in AB-5 and Prop 22, feel free to scroll to the bottom to see my opinion....

I've spent the last month reading Lord of the Rings with an old friend of mine. We go chapter by chapter and discuss weekly. I like to call this an "intentional reading" of the text (which sounds much better than "two person book club"). I've been thoroughly enjoying this experience, but one thing that I cannot let go of, even though it doesn't apply to LotR, is what I've been referring to as "The Dumbledore Conundrum"....

The Dumbledore Conundrum (as it will soon be widely known) is when an older man chooses a younger man’s fate without the younger man’s consent. It’s how Dumbledore decides that Ha…

I'm back! After a week of some much needed sun and ocean air I have returned refreshed and rejuvenated after a stale year of quarantine. I ate at a restaurant. I was around other human beings. I sat on the beach and read The Searcher. It was the latest book put up by the virtual book club I started with a few old friends at the beginning of quarantine....

Just as I was unable to forget the climate of our country while reading this book, Cal could not escape it by moving to Ireland. He soon found himself tied up in a mystery surrounding a timid kid n…

In a world where the temperatures are rising, businesses are opening back up, and a painful year of Covid-related television show plotlines is coming to a close - summer is beginning. I've never noticed the spring as much as I have this year. I take my cat for a walk every day, and I've watched the leaves start to form as little chocolate tips on the branches and grow larger before they burst forth in a wave of green....

I’m not sure how I’ll feel about Cruel Summer in the end, but I know that I can’t stop watching it now. Especially because there’s nothing better on.

2019 was a good year, and not just because it was the year before the world fell apart. It was the year that I started seeing Edward, after a year of being friends he made a move and we started up a summer fling. He would come over to my apartment and make me delicious dinners (and then he'd do the dishes!) and we would go camping on a whim any day of the week....

I don’t welcome pain into my life, but pain is inevitable. When it comes, there’s no fighting it. It comes in waves and they are going to crash over me regardless, so I’ve become …

Apparently Stan Lee told Mark Millar, the brain behind Jupiter's Legacy, to leave Marvel because he was destined for greater things. If the main character, Utopian/Sheldon Sampson (Josh Duhamel), is any reflection on Millar himself then I understand why Lee would have told him to strike out on his own - he is clearly not a team player. I have spent days inside of this universe and I never know if I'm inside Capitan America, Smallville, Treasure Island, or a Hallmark movie....

In both timelines, he has intense tunnel vision focused only on “the greater good” which, as I’ve written about previously, is the WORST ethical code anyone can have. While I can …

When I first started this blog, I was high off of hearing MGK's "Go For Broke" for the first time. I listened to it on repeat on a beautiful summer day, and it was the first time I had felt truly, blissfully happy since a global pandemic brought society to a screeching halt and kept us all at home, circling the drain of sanity....

Gilmore Guys has what some may refer to as “a rough start”. It’s two dudes, Kevin and Demi, and Kevin was a long time fan of the show with Demi being a pair of fresh eyes. They pr…

I signed up for Peacock when it first came out, because it advertised as a free streaming service. I haven't watched a single thing on the service, because the advertising lied. You can watch like, three Parks and Recs without paying. On the surface, this seems like a genius marketing plan. Give the people a little something for free to hook them into paying for more....

Tina Fey’s sitcom humor is expositional, with main characters lobbing jokes like a wiffleball – impossible to miss unless you’re four years old.

A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar. The essential soundtrack for the emotional teenager in the early aughts. All of us that lived in the angst listened to Hands Down on repeat and wished for that date. In fact all of my dates in high school were compared to that song, it was a measure that no one could live up to....
