Logging

TV: Yellowjackets S1 E2

The cuckolded husband wore a shirt that I own, which I take as an indictment against my wardrobe. 

This episode is largely about Missy...and thinking a bit deeper about the show and why ultimately it feels "less" than Lord of the Flies...this show is about female psychopaths. They missed the point of Lord of the Flies, which is this is about us. So much of prestige tv has this same/similar uber message of: we humans suck. But what they really mean is: all the people around me and you (audience) suck, huh? And I'm a bit sick of it, but worse than that - I don't think it's true.
