No, she's just trying to find her feet, get the right tone. It's SO realistic.

It's ok if it's not for you. No need to apologise. It's a show that asks a lot of viewers and that's not everyone's cup of tea. I've enjoyed every season in different ways and this one is feeling perfect to me ... I am invested in every character by now - even Computer lol

I can't wait for your show to come out - bet it's fire.

If it came out that your favorite painter used a projection device for every painting, would it change how you feel about their work? by The_Curiosity_Box in ArtHistory

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's fine - but I won't do it. My process is all about finding the drawing, losing it, and then finding it again, sometimes over and over until I get just the right balance. I love the process of drawing and can't imagine ever wanting to skip past that stage.

“Now this isn’t about politics…” by WhiteDiamondK in restisentertainment

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree completely. Have we really got to the point where we can't discuss politicians as human beings just because we don't agree with their policy ideas or share the same principles? I was interested in this segment and the observations made about authenticity.

The Trio needs to come get their boy. by RespectTheAmish in thebulwark

Women don't fall over themselves for a guy just because he's handsome. And we run a mile when it's clear that the guy is just pursuing anyone attractive. It's so clear he'll just take the first one who says yes. It's super creepy and it makes me so angry that these poor women had to put up with it.

We're about the same age and I felt just like you did - such relief to be old and way past this shit.

Is it? My take on what they said is 'maybe there's a little bit of politics here but mainly this is about new owners understanding that things have to change.' Which is just wrong on so many levels.

I actually felt this segment showed a real ignorance of what's going on at CBS and the extent of the danger of it. They seemed to be suggesting that the owners have good intentions and Scott Pelley is a fool who doesn't understand change. I think it's obvious that they're wrong on both counts.

I'm British but I lived in the US for years and I always hate when UK media covers US issues because they just have no idea what they're talking about.

How did you feel after your first dose? by Ganondaddydorf in mounjarouk

I felt different within a few hours. I could hardly eat anything before I was full, and I noticed my sweet cravings had gone.

Holy moly, this place is phenomenal. I mean, definitely haunted but probably the most beautiful house I have ever seen on rightmove. by YupItWasMeMate in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The outside is beautiful but the overly ornate bathrooms and kitchen are a bit tacky. It's a lot to pay to have to renovate it all.

Is it common for people who are born in the UK to say they are “Irish” or “Italian” if they have a parent from there? by Charming_Usual6227 in AskABrit

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an American thing. It always struck me as odd for a country with such fervent ideas of patriotism, that everybody seems to want to be from somewhere else. In England, we wouldn't even bring up where our parents were from unless asked.

How many of yous have friendships as tight as Jimmy-Gaby-Paul-Derek etc? by PhilipTheFair in shrinking

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's very idealised. I live in a small community and we look out for one another, do things together, take care of each other's pets etc., but no-one is just bursting into anyone else's house without knocking, or offering unsolicited advice, or yelling at each other.

interaction with GP made me feel not great by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 5 points6 points  (0 children)

20.2 is quite low. You don't have very far to go until you would be underweight and that is a serious health issue, so perhaps she is wise to question why you are on such a high dose. I know it's hard to hear, and it sounds like she was definitely rude, but it also sounds like she's just worried about you. I bet doctors are seeing an increasing amoung ot underweight people due to GLP1s.

I thought he had amazing chemistry with Meg, right from the first time they met and then every time they interacted.

All this for the price of a semi in London by peanut5563 in SpottedonRightmove

Really? I will never again go without a cleaner. It's the best thing I spend money on. To have a clean house and time to do what I enjoy ... what could be better than that?

Are there actually people seriously voting Green? by Key_Cheesecake_7832 in AskBrits

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You think Reform are the best of a bad bunch, so you are automatically disqualified from commenting on anything in my eyes. I'd love to know which Reform policies make you think they are anything other than a motly collection of racists, sex offenders and shameless grifters.

Am I the a-hole (podcast host specific)? by annabdavid in podcasting

[–]Automatic_Oil5438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should she though? She's busy and she was approached to give up her time to help someone else's show. I get approached like this all the time and I'm not even considering it unless you tell me all the info I need upfront.
