Sophia, I’m so glad you went to the hospital! May the blood thinners kick in soon.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Here's a YouTube playlist with 4,000 free movies, Sophia: [link]
Some great classic ones like The Awful Truth, Wuthering Heights (1939), Twentieth Century, ita's favorite Brotherhood of the Wolf, cool Hong Kong movies like City on Fire and Chinese Ghost Story, 80s/90s indie movies like Living in Oblivion, 80s teen movies like Girls Just Want to Have Fun and Better off Dead.
Oooh, Postcards From The Edge! Guaranteed entertaining: [link]

Oooh, one of my personal favorite movies God Help the Girl: [link]
It's an indie musical by the band Belle and Sebastian. Imagine a Wes Anderson musical.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Sophia, holy crap.

Carole Lombard's only Technicolor movie. Also, my favorite of that era.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Oh my gosh, Sophia! Fingers crossed that treatment is effective in both the short and long terms.

This too shall pass.
I'm watching Bengals v Dolphins on the Dolphin's channel, but all the commercials are Ohio politics. Almost all the commercials, except for a few pharma ads. We pretty much never watch live tv except for sports.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

So many turnovers!

Sorry you're catching our fallout. I really want Sherrod Brown back in the Senate, dang it!

Same. Though I do enjoy the Progressive commercials about homeowners turning into their parents.

I am sending all the vibes for Sherrod and for you to get a decent governor. Ohio has had some real doozies. As a Floridian I feel your pain.
Yes, the Progressive ads are on point.

Laura, I genuinely thought Miami was going to win in the last minute of the game, because no one can piss away a lead like the Bengals.

The Dolphins only plus is that they are a very young rookie team, so maybe in a year or two.

The Dolphins had a lot of great plays — they probably will be much more of a force to be reckoned with in a couple of years.
I'm mostly shocked that Burrow made it through 5 games without getting injured. The dude is made of glass.
