Love and Hate: The Story of Colin and JoAnn Thatcher is a Canadian television miniseries, directed by Bruce Pittman and broadcast by CBC Television in 1989.[1] Based on Maggie Siggins's 1985 book A Canadian Tragedy: JoAnn and Colin Thatcher: A Story of Love and Hate, the film dramatizes the story of Colin Thatcher, a former Canadian politician who was convicted in 1984 of the murder of his ex-wife JoAnn following their divorce.[2]
I completely agree about needing more characters like Trice. I loved that he had no interest in trying to fit in with the cool crowd and just made friends with people he personally thought were interesting regardless of what crowd they were in.
I really love stories with enemies to lovers, fake dating, slow burn or when they are both sassy and sarcastic and they just joke around. does anyone have an episode story recommendation? It has to be limelight and if the choices matter the better!! and if they are completed stories thats a plus!
Here are a few examples of what ive read:

Kennedy is a young emerging theatre professional here in Seattle. Originally from Danville, Virginia, she got her start in theatre at the very ripe age of 11, doing community theatre with The Rising Star Project. Her passion for theatre grew and carried her all the way to college. While at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), Kennedy took on multiple roles in Musical Theatre, Costume Design, and Theatre Administration. In 2019, Kennedy was hired by Courtney Sale (former SCT Artistic Director) as a Drama School Intern and moved to Seattle two weeks after Graduation. Her love for the city prospered, and she decided to stay and continue her work with theatre. Kennedy is also widely known as the spectacular Kennedy Colby, performing drag and burlesque and delivering jaw-dropping performances all over the city. Other works include her affiliation with BeautyBoiz as an event producer/performer. Kennedy is very excited to join the Intiman team and share her enthusiasm and creativity in a positive way to make theatre more accessible to those less represented. EMAIL
I have a long and complicated relationship with Duolingo . The hate side, in short, is that I think the way Duolingo models language and thinks/treats language is fundamentally atomistic and inimical to good principles of second language acquisition. The love side is that I actually enjoy and continue to use Duolingo daily, and gain a measurable benefit from it. In this post I want to explore and reflect on these two things in light of recent and long-term experience.
I gave this app to my son to practice his Chinese, the non paid version, just to see how it goes. Initially he did quite enjoy the way it worked, but because of the way it encouraged payment (penalties for incorrect answers ends the study session) he quickly began to hate getting that wrong answer prompt to the point where he was scared to get the incorrect answer and within a few days he hated it.
In an attempt to get more veggies in my 3 yo sons diet, I shred/grate an entire zucchini and add it to a full jar of pasta sauce and simmer on low. My son loves it and there is no squishy soggy zucchini ickiness to it. I make this and put it over angel hair pasta about 2x/month. We both love it!
OMG. I am a Virginia girl who loves zucchini, and grew up on squash casserole (admittedly way fuller of sour cream, butter & croutons than squash), who found a Vermont boy who grew up on canned asparagus and frozen peas (no lie), who (to his credit) likes many many vegetables, but seems to feel EXACTLY the way Andy does about zucchini. I love you guys.
( I often add sauteed matchsticks of zucchini to my spaghetti dinner, sighing as the others happily go without. That lunch looks INSANE!)
That said, I also know that so much misunderstanding exists around Kubler-Ross' work. Most people don't know her theory was developed as stages for people who were dying, not those who were grieving. Out of her hundreds of pages of writing, most people only know those five simple: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. From there, they make assumptions, define things themselves, take a guess. I knew if I wanted to hate acceptance (and I did) I needed to know more than just the word.
When I first read Kubler-Ross' book, I was fascinated by her actual definition of acceptance. Acceptance, she says: "is often confused with the notion of being all right or okay with what has happened. This is not the case. Most people don't ever feel okay or all right about the loss of a loved one. This stage is about accepting the reality that our loved one is physically gone and recognizing that this new reality is a permanent reality.
Healing looks like remembering, recollecting, and reorganizing . . . we must try to live now in a world where our loved one is missing . . . In a strange way, as we move through grief, healing brings us closer to the person we loved. A new relationship begins. We learn to live with the loved one we lost".
