It dropped on me like a bomb! I did not see that coming at all. I figured Barbara was still alive somewhere, masquerading as someone else. I did not at all pick up on the Leslie connection.

Oh snap! That had not occurred to me. That guy is totally a corpse propped up in front of the TV in the living room.

The Dupree Family only makes sense if every generation has kids when they were about 20. So did Anita accomplish everything from like 17-20? Maybe starting at 15 if she were a soap opera character back then.

Fans can be split on other issues, but have you ever in your life read one single comment where a fan is like, "I really like Ashley!" Get the net, CBS! Everyone, I mean everyone, thinks Ashley and all her romances are BOOOOOORING!

I find this entirely believable. I've heard so many stories about dudes who view this as some kind of sports trophy to earn. It's gross - but believable... Tomas is just after the Dupree connection. He could not care less about Kat, and has no real affection for her.

Turning Ted of all people into a heel is a really weird development

Right there with you! That will make Leslie & Eva Duprees!

Vernon. I thought it was on the nose that Anita had to point out earlier in the episode with such confidence that Vernon had never cheated on her. That would make Leslie & Eva Duprees. It's happening.

Vernon is going to be revealed as Leslie's mother - thus making both Leslie and Eva Duprees! #btg #BeyondTheGates

The difference gets easier if you accept that my, your, hers, his, theirs also don't have apostrophes... Now if only I could convince my phone autocorrect of this.

Kat seems to get a lot more airtime than Hayley - but you make a compelling point that it's challenging to decide which of those characters is truly more dislikeable.

Yeah, like, Nicole's claim to fame used to be that the was The Stable And Reasonable One on the show. While I understand that doesn't make for very useful daytime drama, I kinda miss the Old Nicole, and I'm waiting for her to dust off after Ted... though tbf, she hasn't tried to shoot anyone. Yet.

#BeyondTheGates #BTG Kat is my least favorite character... Well, except for Ashley and Derek, of course. Kat is my least favorite whole character.

In Colorado where I live, our DMVs are now appointment only. At first I was pissed this spring because the 1st available appt was in like 5 weeks! But then I walked right, waited less than 2 min before it was my turn. It went super fast & smooth once I was there!

a man in a suit and tie is giving a speech at a podium that says live Alt: Former President Barack Obama makes a hand gesture indicating shrinking measurement while referencing Donald Trump's obsession with crowd size during a speech at the 2024 DNC

The stupid military parade #Trump wanted was a huge flop, with #NoKings protests carrying the news of the day. He.looked weak and foolish. That left a 100% guarantee that the U.S. would bomb someone in the following week, to distract and hope to impress.

It IS what they voted for. 7 million "libs" called Trump out for having a limp military penis at his parade. Now he's got to show the world just how potent he thinks he is.

I'm sorry you're dealing with that; that sounds unpleasant to say the least. Godspeed.

This is why I'm screaming into the void here on BlueSky and not protesting publicly this summer. I've got some duties close to home that I've got to manage first and foremost.

a man in a suit and tie is giving a speech at a podium that says live Alt: President Barack Obama speaks at the 2024 Democratic National Convention, mentioning Donald Trump's "obsession with crowd size." Obama then makes a hand gesture which silently indicates that he's inferring penis size.

After that limp military birthday parade, there was a 100% likelihood that #Trump would find some nation in need of, "American justice" this week.

Are the appliances newly added (and mismatched)? Or it was like that when she chose to move in there...? In which case....

You're not wrong about the usefulness of that level of org, but gently - Don't let, "The perfect be the enemy of the good." Gotta start somewhere. Gotta just START!

Ask what the federal government can do to help and show leadership. Instead, Trump calls the governor β€œwhacked out” and says β€œWhy would I call him?” This isn’t strength. It’s cruelty! And it sends a loud message: If you’re not loyal to Trump, you don’t matter. America deserves better.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.
