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 Porn.

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 appreciate that it’s tough to be a super hero, I don’t have sympathy for a man who refuses to bend by claiming that he can’t buckle under the immense strain of his leadership. If the role is that heavy, it should be shared.

It’s been too long since I wrote about music. The truth is, movies are easier and I’m kind of lazy. Don’t get me wrong, I love movies and television. But when it comes to the real, slow burn kind of changes in life – those eras come with a soundtrack.

It might be time to put this one to bed, it’s leaving Netflix in three days (on February 28) so you still have time to watch it and either agree with me or start a fight. I’m down for either, six readers, come at me.

I cannot express this enough – DO NOT BINGE THIS SHOW. It has been a pretty traumatic day for me over here. A constant sob fest. I think that I’m done, I think that *this* story won’t hit me – I mean I have no emotional memories of the Vietnam War – but NO.

Hulu hates me. I know it’s true and I know it’s personal. It’s the only possible explanation for the fact that I have been trying to watch Veronica Mars for a month now and it does not play easily, if at all. At first I blamed this on my poor […]
