I never was interested in politics, really, till DJT came down the escalator – I turned to the Bear and said, “He’s gonna win this thing” and when the media went nuts about what a horrible person this previously beloved reality star was, I started to pay more attention.
Covid woke up the small part of me that still trusted the media, science, pharma and government.
That said, one more campaign commercial and I’m about to throw the TV over the front bank. Well, Bear would have quite the fit if I did that, so there’s that, but it’s close. Might be worth it if I didn’t know he’d just go buy another one.
Please, you want me to vote for you? Stop lying and stop being assholes. Also, one ad a day and a box of government cheese a month, and I might be bought. (It’s known as “gubbmint cheese” and if you’ve never had it, you’re lucky to not know anyone who needs help with food, but oh you’ve missed some of the best cheese ever.) (We’re not getting it, a friend is)
So, much as I hate their political leanings, it’s Netflix for me till November. Umbrella Academy is my current evening fare. I know there are other streaming services, but I really don’t watch enough TV, nor does Bear, to justify paying for anything beyond Dish Network. (I wouldn’t even pay for that but Bear needs his ancient bad shows)
So if you have any suggestions for Netflix series, drop them below.
In other news, tomorrow is Bear’s birthday. I’m making him a Boston Cream Pie. The cake is baking and once cool, I’ll make the filling. I’m not quite sure I have enough milk so that may require a trip to the grocery store. I will not be indulging in this creation, by the way, too many calories!
I’m one third of the way through the 5th Cormoran Strike novel – this one is over 900 pages long! I was told that I need to read Louise Penny – so once I’m through all the rest of the books I need to read, I’ll start on that series.
And that’s all, folks

I have Netflix too, but don’t watch it as much as I use to. I like the occasional movie (A.X.L was pretty good). I did watch the series Arrow. It’s pretty good, but gets a little riské a few times (don’t know why they think that is necessary.) If you haven’t watched it, it’s about Green Arrow. ATM I am getting more from my regular Roku channels (their channels are free), and the Paramount+ and Amazon Prime channels (those two are paid for channels). Even all together they are cheaper than cable or dish. They do carry the older shows too :P. And you can add other free channels to Roku, like Tubi, western channels, there are a lot of choices. But anyway that’s what I do. On Prime I’m watching Person of Interest, don’t know how I missed that one on TV, but it’s really good, and I like the Stargate SG1 series, which I’ve watched several times :P.
I like baking too, but I can not make something and not have a piece of what I am making :P. Too tempting!!

Happy Birthday to Bear! I hope he doesn’t have to buy a new TV for his birthday.
I am frustrated by how generic and lame political ads are. Don’t just say something: back it up. Treat your ad like a term paper. Cite dates, statistics, witness testimony….whatever. You’re not going to educate anyone or win them over with “He said/she said” nonsense. 🙄
Is Outer Range on Netflix? I liked that one.
