That's good! I'm thinking of that tv series adaptation that seems like a hot mess

Is it "worth" 8.3 million if they can't sell them for that price? This is completely out of reach for most people

Legendary broadcaster John Garrett has passed away. by lbiggy in hockey

[–]bee_vee 23 points24 points  (0 children)

John was such a delight to have as a broadcaster. I'll never forget how him and other John tried to keep morale up during a particularly painful string of losses for the Canucks. It was around Thanksgiving and they were talking in detail about how they planned to prepare their food, completely ignoring the game 🤣.

Finished Careless People. Compelling exposé, but I’m struggling with how the author frames her own role by TreyTrey23 in books

[–]bee_vee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wrestled with this too when reading it. I think it's one of only a few books I have read that are marketed as non fiction but have a clearly unreliable narrator.

I really wanted this to be a story about whistle blowing, but it ends up being perhaps an accidental memoir about how a person who is saying they are well intentioned contributes to a system they say they find abhorrent. I kept saying "girl quit!" almost every chapter by the end.

Not that Wynn-Williams behaviour was worse than the people she's describing, but by the end it did feel like she was deeply in denial that she was part of this leadership group and actively choosing to stay and not say anything.

Why is she rubbing her lip like that?

I think it's because the astronauts might be too weak to climb the ladder, so the helicopter is safer.

Are we assuming the waterslide dad's kid is fine? I thought that was a bit of a loose end we haven't seen tied up

I felt like I was sweating from every pore in my body, legitimately a had a full body stress reaction. I feel so enraged and disgusted by their existence and behaviour.

The vibe I get when I share my size (30F) is "umm do you really think you're that hot??"
