Is Colin a virgin in the show?

I remember a joke about his lack of worldliness, but I can't remember if he was going to brothels and clubs with Anthony and Benedict.

I hope he is. It'd be nice to see Penelope and Colin exploring and learning together. A one breaks out of their shell because the other brings that out of them would also be nice. Especially since all the girls are virgins. That whole, he's super experienced, and she's a shy little virgin who's never even touched herself, and he's going to show her how dynamic is annoying after so many times.

I kind of hope they make it so Sophie isn't a virgin. Especially because she holds no title and has no reputation to protect.

Because if we have to wait all the way until Franchesa for one of these Bridgerton girls to shove him down and show him how it's done, I'll scream.

“I was very, very emotionally avoidant. I strictly emotionally avoided everything my whole twenties. I was catching up with my sister the other day, and I was like, ‘I think from the way that we were raised, I think we were taught that we have to earn love.’ Instead of it being an unconditional thing or that being an unconditional entity. I’m not saying it is that. I don’t know whether that comes from that African upbringing, that strict upbringing: get your grades, get into a good uni, become a doctor, become a lawyer. Start overachieving. It was like you have to prove why you’re lovable. We’re trained to be like, ‘If I’m not exceptional, I won’t be loved.’ Certainly, I think that was my thing. So, yeah, I think I’m just learning now like, ‘Oh, you are allowed to be loved.’ You don’t have to be excellent or aspire to that term, ‘Black excellence’. What the hell? There’s so much white mediocrity that gets celebrated, and Black people, we have to be absolutely flawless to get half of [that] anyway. So, I’m slowly training myself out of that and being like, ‘No shit. You deserve love just for existing.’ And that has taught me to be a lot more loving as well, in a weird way.” NCUTI GATWA photographed by Melanie Lehmann for Attitude Magazine (May/June 2024)

Ralph must've snatched Hero up by the yoke and threw him in some acting classes.

There's noticeable improvement.

And he's doing accent work.

In The Woman King, it took me so long to figure out it was him, I was in denial. I finally had to look up the cast list whilst in the theater. I audibly gasped.

My theory: when he has to act in an accent not of his own, it gives him something to focus on and allows his other senses to relax.

I just found out Late Night with the Devil uses some AI generated image's. If I had known that, I wouldn't have gone to see it. I wish I could get my money back.

Also, a documentary on Netflix used AI in a documentary. To manipulate the image of a real person to manipulate the truth.

So I see it is time to wait until AI usage reports come out for movies before going to see them. I'm not giving my money to companies so they can continue screwing over their employees.

Those full body deodorant commercials piss me off. They are so full of body shaming, but they know its wrong, so it's mostly a bunch of wishy-washy bullshit.

"I know bodies have natural odors it's normal, but you shouldn't."

"We shouldn't care that bodies smell sometimes, but you should, because you stink. Trust me I'm a gynecologist."

"You went to the gym and got swamp ass that's totally normal and can be fixed by taking a normal shower, but girl that's not enough (even though it absolutely is)."

"We don't want to make women feel bad about their bodies' natural smells. (Yes, we absolutely do, because we know people will cave to societies hygiene olympics, and fund our capitalist regime)"

The one by the alleged actual gynecologist passes me off the most. How dare you be a doctor and participate in this bullshit.

Dear whoever needs to hear this,

Let Dev Patel make whatever movies he wants.

Signed, me and everybody.

Monkey Man was so good. He was so good in it. It looked cool. The story was great.

10/10 do recommend.

My goodness, there is nothing I love more than a man in all black, covered in blood getting revenge on evil people, along with his trans sisters.

The fight scenes were so good.

Good damn time at the movies.

Also, It was really nice to see India not dingy yellow.

I sometimes wonder about all the small town murderers who just moved because everyone in town knew the victim had it coming.

The racists and the abusers.

Like Jim, the town racist was always doing some evil racist stuff to Mike. Mike finally had enough and killed Jim. The family packed Mike up and sent him to live with the family in Cali. The sheriff came knocking and asked where Mike was. The family said he left town, and the sheriff just says, "Make sure he stay gone." Jim's family never says anything because they know he had it coming.

Or

Lisa married Kyle. Lisa always shows up with new bruises, and something broke. One day, Kyle turned up dead, and Lisa went to stay with her aunt in Temecula and the Sheriff just said good for her and went on about his day.

I tried my hand at salmon with crispy skin.

T'was over cooked. I got overwhelmed with wanting the skin crispy, I let it fry for too long on both sides.

Aspagus with bacon and holladaise sauce. I should've added some lemon juic. This was good, but it needed a burst of acid.

Mashed potatoes. I used a potato masher for the first time, I'm never going back to forks.

This man just rolled up in here like he ain't been on a sexcapade with his barely legal mistress and have the nerve to blame his affair(s) on men not wanting to grow old. Like his wife don't feel the same about getting older. Let her go doing the same with the pool boy and her be ready to kill her.

One thing men will always have is the audacity.
