You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone. That might mean your wife. And that might make you realise that you don’t give a shit about your marriage. That’s the issue Davis (Jake Gyllenhaal) faces as he remains emotionally numb to the fact while everyone else mourns like a ‘normal’ person.

Laika Entertainment is an animation studio to be adored.

In retrospect is clear that Scandoval was the Montreal Screwjob of the @BravoTV-verse. Permanent impact on narrative parameters going forward. Still being felt. Historic stuff. Just think, we were all there for it.

I love it, but sweet Thai chilli sauce is insidious. You get sticky just being near it. The stickiness floats through the air.
