Not quite Falstaff is fine. Given the nature of his demise. Nobody wants that. Not quite that seems good.

Hardest thing Iāve ever been through. Reversing roles w the 100% in-charge Naval Intelligence Officer, Duke PhD, Dean of Womenās Liberal Arts College and still super fun guy so that Iām effectively the Dad was brutal and something I still canāt quite get my head around. How can this be right?

Rapist sadist mentality. Itās psychosexual. The whole MAGA project. Shitty, broken, disordered humans who want to force themselves on and hurt anyone who doesnāt seem as shitty as they are - reinforced constantly by TV socialmedia etc 24 hour stream of happy fun sunshine they arenāt allowed to have.

If itās pain youāre looking for give the NC Courage a shot. They make an art of underperforming. Great little 10k stadium though⦠and they have Manaka Matsukubo. Love em.

First watched w my retired Naval Intelligence Pops when I was a kid - it was broadcast on our local PBS station. He attested to its authenticity. Bought the DVDs and rewatched a few years ago to prep for a spy series I EP-ed. So that itās now streaming on BritBox, so jumping in for a THIRD time āØš„šµš»āāļø

Right? I just cannot. I think itās neurological šā¦ my brain does different things completely when I listen to jazz vs rock/soul/pop/r&b. Iām sure it has to do w song structure, vox, tonal harmony etc. but Iām not switched on enough to truly, identify, compare, contrast š¤ these books might helpā¦

Lotsa big delightful moments this season - so the sports Seneca in me can live w the injuries, the 3rd best team waltzing to the title, the existence of Gary Neville etc
But what does it say about me that losing constant low-grade amusement at the Spursā epic trophylessness feels like such a loss?
