*I am working on extracting myself from anything Amazon-related. It's hard when you need something last-minute that you didn't know about. But 100% fuck these billionaires who are going to benefit from this joke of an administration.

    1. I'm really interested in that one. I love Friends so much and used to watch ER religiously in its prime. Eleanor now loves Friends as much as I do and we watch a couple episodes every day.

    1. I found out about that serial killer, Dean Corrl, because of one of the Gacy books I read. He had two teenagers basically working for him, luring young men to his apartments to toture and rape and kill them. It's awful. For so long they've been referred to as 'Houston's Lost Boys' because many were unidentified for so long. There's a new book on order by my library that I am looking foward to, as much as you can with this kind of subject matter, called The Scientist and the Serial Killer: The Search for Houston's Lost Boys by Lise Olsen. It's heartbreaking. So many of these boys were considered runaways by the police that no one bothered to look no matter what their families said. And there was no real justice served, Corrl's 'apprentice' in the one who ended up shooting him one day and putting an end to it all. He and the other boy lead police to as many bodies as they knew of, but I am thoroughly convinced there are many we will never know about, who will never be found.
