I do not like horror nor protracted violence against women scenes, but god damn if this True Detective It's Dark 24/7 wasn't some of the most entertaining tv I have ever seen! THE CONCLUSION WAS SO SATISFYINGGG! Of course, your assessment made me lol (Rose?!), and of course, much of the critical panning feels sexist af. But dang I could stand multiple seasons with a racist p.o.s. J Foster and a busted up Kali Reis and a truly unhinged Fiona Shaw in this creepy Bechdel satisfaction soup.

I also have a love-hate relationship with scratchers (or as I call them "scratchees"). For a long time it was a novelty for me because when I visited WI I could get them with a debit card which I couldn't do in IL. I think at some woke changed that and it can only be cash (or I was turned away once trying to use card and was too embarrassed to try again). Now I will regularly get $5 in cash back at Kwik Trip and use $1-$3 of it on scratchees. I lose a lot of money!
