Cosign on the Taylor Swift. Kids enjoyed it too

oh I was wrong. for some reason I thought andrea savage both wrote for and appeared on Veep. I guess she just appeared on it. anyway it's a good show but better in smaller increments as she herself gets pretty annoying after three episodes

Marie Kondo fizzled out after two episodes. Too samey.

how much do you like folding yr shirts into little envelopes
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 4 January 2019 01:21 (five years ago) link
i've always found it stupid. If you fold your white t-shirts into little envelopes then how do you know that that is the particular white t-shirt that you like the most and want to wear.

I was skeptical — and then I did it? Eyebrow raised and all, but I ended up with like maybe 25 total pieces of clothing, all of which I loved. The best experience of decluttering was culling my home library from several thousand titles to just what would fill three narrow bookcases, which turned out to be about three hundred titles. Having to pick up every book and say “is this still important?” raised important questions about *why* I was keeping the books in the first place. Embarrassingly, many of my answers were along the lines of- because if I don’t see the title I won’t remember I read it- because guests can see it and think I’m smart- because the spine is pretty/cool- because I like being the kind of person that owns this book- because I might read it again some day - because I might read it some day

I really don't understand people who that vocally hate doing laundry. You put clothes in a machine and press a button. Maybe I am doing it wrong.
― Yerac, Friday, 4 January 2019 11:09 (five years ago) link
what if the machine is in a different building 10 minutes away?
― koogs, Friday, 4 January 2019 11:18 (five years ago) link
You do have to take the washing out of the machine and hang it up. Unless you have a separate dryer (which can be rare in small flats), the washing never quite gets dry from the drying cycle and you have to beware of inadvertently creating the conditions for damp and mold.
― Luna Schlosser, Friday, 4 January 2019 11:26 (five years ago) link
oh yeah, that I get, I probably would've used drop off services in NYC more if I hadn't had a washer in my apt (plus drop off services were too fragrant). I was referring to the woman in the first episode. The couple had hired someone to do their laundry.
― Yerac, Friday, 4 January 2019 11:28 (five years ago) link
They totally had a very american washer and dryer in the house. Typically, american dryers have no problems drying clothes ( I usually take mine out way early so they don't get overdried).

Notable streaming arrivals: Leave No Trace, Jane Eyre, Apostasy, Hereditary on Amazon; The Breadwinner on Netflix; Support the Girls and Columbus on Hulu.

Yeah, I was excited to see that Pioneers series added today. Already watched 49-17, notable as the first western to be directed by a woman (it's fine), and am exited to go through the rest.
― Timothée Charalambides (cryptosicko), Friday, 4 January 2019 20:16 (five years ago) link
Leave No Trace kinda slept on last year, highly recommend it, especially if you liked Winter's Bone Support the Girls also solid, and I'm excited to see Columbus.

"You", the show with Penn Badgley playing a deranged version of his Gossip Girl character, is ridiculous and trashy and populated entirely by characters from the quiddities/agonies NYT thread. I LOVE IT.

If it's available in your part of the world, then the Icelandic film 'And Breathe Normally' is very much worth seeing.

finally started bodyguard, it's alright. not sure what the big hubhub was on either side; it's neither the greatest show ever, nor am I finding it 'rife with islamaphobia'. it's just weird to see rob stark in modern london.

Within the current context of British politics, it wasn't great!
it's neither the greatest show ever
Within the context of whatever shit's usually on BBC Sunday evening, it was pretty good!

i just started You and i just want to say I’m glad to see Lou Taylor Pucci looking normal & not playing a terminally ill character I normally hate things that are narrated and i feel a bit gross about how stalky it is and I am still kinda on the fence but I believe in yall’s power of not steeering me wrong on this stuff so i’m gonna keep going

Conan’s new show on here is pretty good. Basically his “on location” shtick (best part of his og shows imo) in various countries, different one per episode. Mexico one got me a little choked up.
