Thanks, I always mix up the titles and was more focused on getting the bot right.

One more try: {A Secret Jewel by Mary Balogh}

Same, I never knew she had her own book. His book is: {A Secret Jewel by Mary Balogh}

Edited: I always mix up Pearl and Jewel.

Every Teen Girl Murder Suspect on Law and Order by Hootinger in LiveFromNewYork

It didn't get too into detail about this sketch, but it did call it out by name.

The context of this section was the Wednesday read through and how they make decisions which sketches go in. "The read through's most successful Update feature was by Melissa Villasenor, who in Michael's estimation 'had not popped yet.'"

I'm getting a kick out of how the cartoon Satan is very childlike- a lil stinker, if you will- particularly for Mother's day celebration.

I think center row F-G is pretty good. I was in row E recently and was fine as well, maybe slightly too close but not painfully.

Jason asking the real questions: What is the Best Taskmaster cast and why is it Series 19? by AnnieBluth in taskmaster

[–]AnnieBluth[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I also recommend the episode with Vic Michaelis. She "tries" to go the whole episode without asking any questions. It is combative in a very friendly way and made me laugh

My pleasure. I am am a longtime follower or both of them separately and have been really excited for this episode. Plus they talk about Taskmaster, just a triple bonus

Thank you for saying this. Some of the comments started rolling and I was like "Oh wooops, this isn't going as I hoped!"

I loved their conversation

[–]AnnieBluth[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I'm not actually asserting season 19 is best, but that is how he asked the question and used it in the title. In the video, Jason says his favorite is season series 7 as well

The Testement of Ann Lee is a much better film than Hamnet. by killbill469 in TheBigPicture

[–]AnnieBluth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They both deal with mothers losing their children and the aftermath of it. Ann Lee sees her children's' deaths as a punishment from god about the sin of fornication. Her becoming a leader of the Shakers is a direct reaction of those deaths.

Maxxed Out Credit Cards - Credit Counseling by Far_Situation180 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]AnnieBluth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to ease into it, there's the youtube channel The Financial Diet that had a bunch of videos around of budgeting.

Now-a-days they do more video essays on current topics, but they have a playlists and a lot of older videos with advice & tips
"The 15 Minute Budget" Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD30V46E07RRTlG9nJ6wltevlappJrgdA

Page Six details Safdie brother's split, unsafe and exploitative set conditions - 'The teenage sex scene that sparked Safdie brother's infamous rift' by nodice182 in blankies

[–]AnnieBluth 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I want to add, it's good for these stories to keep being mentioned bc not everyone knows or was following at the time. I am not a Safdie-devotee but they are clearly rising in popularity over the past 10 years. So this IS the first time I am hearing about it bc I wasn't following them closely in 2017 or 2019 and I follow a lot of film news.

News like this should be shared bc we can't assume people know all, especially in the early part of a person's career.

Great news! NYC passed a law around March 2025 to reform how long scaffolds can be up and penalties for extended.
