Netflix Finds

What Would Jesus Do?
Another show coming Thursday that caught my eye is Murder Mindfully. The blurb makes it sound like Barry.

A lawyer attends a mindfulness retreat to restore work-life balance but unexpectedly becomes a murderer and mastermind for the mob.​

I just looked and it seems the same. What's supposed to be different?

I notice that The Diplomat is coming this Thursday. Stars Kerri Russel and Rufus Sewell and the 1st season earned 8.0 on IMDb. Here's their blurb:

In the midst of an international crisis, Kate Wyler, a career diplomat, lands in a high-profile job for which she is not suited, with tectonic implications for her marriage and her political future.​

OOTB's Political Thread . ..

two good reasons 1) Kamala Harris, and 2) Kamala Harris. She is an obvious zero, and it is incredible to me that she garners the favor of half of our electorate. That isn't hyperbole. I truly find it bizarre that anyone in their right mind would vote for her. She has no business whatsoever being our president. It isn't because she's a woman and it isn't because of her color...it's because she has no substance, and she has no idea what she's even talking about. Running the greatest country in the world has to require more than the ability to avoid answering even the easy questions, and mouthing platitudinous word salads. And just look at her track record. Sleepy said she was in on what occurred in his term as much as he was. You want more of that? Seriously? What's wrong with you?

She reminds me of Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite when he addresses the student body to try to get himself elected class president. Having no idea what to say, Napoleon says 'just tell them that if they vote for you, all their wildest dreams will come true'. And that's what he does and that's basically what she does. How do people fall for empty promises like that?

And of course a third good reason is I was happy with Trump's first term and I don't have any reason to think he'll be any worse this time, and very possibly far better. Depends on if the dems carry out another obstruction campaign.

this guy says what I have said many times, but no one seems to get it. When demlibs target blacks as being in special need, they are essentially saying that black people aren't capable of taking care of themselves. When demlibs target people as racists whose words people of color need to be protected from, they are essentially saying that the things racists say about people of color are true. If we contend that black people are as good as white people are, which I do, then how does it make sense to treat them as less than white people while stupidly claiming some kind of moral superiority...because what you are exhibiting is intellectual INferiority as well as a latent racism.

This is America, the land of freedom.. White people don't have to like black people. Black people don't have to like white people. No one has to like anything. That's how it is supposed to work. That's freedom. But white people and black people have to treat each other as equals. That's also how it's supposed to work, and that's how freedom is upheld, and that's how we learn to respect each other as equals.

Yes.

Sure you can always find some insiders and experts who will dump on their former employer or leader, but I'm pretty sure this level of defection is unprecedented. Is there any reason to believe that's an incorrect assessment?

OTOH, a loud chorus of well-regarded critics is not actually a guarantee that Trump will be awful in his 2nd term. But I for one would rather not risk it.

Why are you willing to risk it?

Unfortunately that’s a reminder of the biggest heart break in the history of unc athletics. The college World Series vs Oregon. IIRC Unc with the lead in the final inning of game 6 up 3 games to 2. Champagne on ice. Two outs. STRUCK HIM OUT!!! Heels win the series!!…but wait….passed ball on strike three that the catcher can’t handle and hitter gets to first. So next batter…STRUCK HIM OUT!! HEELS ARE THE WORLD…..wait…not again! But yes, once again the catcher can’t handle the pitch, it gets past him and the batter gets to first. With the extra two outs Oregon eventually scores annd wins game 6. Then they go on to win game 7. I’ve still never seen a hitter advance on a strike 3 passed ball nevertheless back to back.

weird, but I have only the vaguest recollection of that bitter disappointment.

This was last week;

“No transgender, no operations — you know, they take your kid — there are some places, your boy leaves for school, comes back a girl. Okay? Without parental consent.” He added, “At first, when I was told that was actually happening, I said, you know, it’s an exaggeration. No: it happens. It happens. There are areas where it happens.”

Then last night on rogan;

“Who would want to have — there’s so many — the transgender operations: where they’re allowed to take your child when he goes to school and turn him into a male — to a female — without parental consent.”

So is there anyone out there wanna tell me trump doesn’t actually believe this and is just exxagerating?

I'm your huckleberry. Not sure what exactly being somebody's huckleberry entails, so of course there would be the usual exclusions and exceptions, etc., etc..

one 'x', two 'g's' BTW. No charge. You're welcome.

Every Trump voter sat back and watched a violent mob try to overthrow American democracy based entirely on Trump's lies and thought to themselves "I fully support this and I will vote for this man again." This is just one reason why every current Trump voter is an irredeemable PoS
