Another Jew on here commented that people were going onto Wikipedia and removing references to certain people's Jewishness, and I just saw for myself that this is true. As a Jew and a fan of old movies and history, I was looking up a list of Jewish actors on Wikipedia. I saw Tina Louise (you know, from Gilligan's Island) pop up. So I popped over to her actual page on Wikipedia. And there were zero references to her being Jewish. So I hopped on over to the Wayback Machine (bless you, Internet Archive) and put in the URL for her Wikipedia page. And wouldn't ya know it: before 10/7, there were at least 3 to 5 references to her Jewishness at any given time on her Wikipedia page. Wtf is happening.

martin short is a legend!!! his performance in episode 2 of s4 is an emmy tape!!!!! he was brilliant!!and the script for this season is amazing!!! they separated the suspects into two episodes, which I found very interesting!! cuz they didn't interact at all and we can't exclude anyone who has appeared so far…. (SPOILERS IN THE TAGS)

#jan saying that a killer only hides a body if he doesn't want to alert the real target left me like this 👀👀#I think the target was Charles! cuz the person who killed sazz didn't clean her house so they don't know that it was full of clues #so i think 1) sazz noticed some strange movement 2) she was investigating 3) and then she died instead of charles #thinking about the clues #she lives in L.A. so the strange movement could have been noticed there (the stuff in the movie) but how did it lead to arconia?#are there two mysteries? maybe what Sazz was investigating had nothing to do with the attempted murder and everything to do with the movie?#but I do think hollywood and brazzos have a role in the murder/attempt #maybe someone who worked on brazzos saw that charles could return to Hollywood with the movie so they decided to kill him?#It could be one of brazzos' card-playing buddies that charles mentioned!#and the card game could even be the one that mabel and oliver played with the westies #god this season is really good already #omitb #omitb s4 #mabel mora #charles haden savage #oliver putnam #only murders in the building

The worst part about reading in a genre where you have low expectations (in this case, Christian historical fiction) is that when a book impresses you, you have no idea if it's actually good or if you're just overly impressed because it was a fraction of a degree better than the usual garbage.
