Finished watching Disclaimer tonight. It’s got some really strong points, and a few minor plot holes, but the final scene at the hospital between Catherine and Robert nails her perfectly. In the entire show, her reasoning during that scene was the one thing that felt truly realistic.

Tonight’s viewing is the start of Disclaimer. It never ceases to surprise me to see Sacha Baron Cohen as such a normal person.

It never ceases to amaze me the amount of time people feel genuinely grateful because my kid showed the bare minimum of kindness at her job. (She told me of a mom who was so thankful to her for confirming none of their products had dairy.)

I just read. A recipe description. That listed the ingredients. All of them. As separate sentences. It was so strange. And weird. I don’t understand. Why people do this.

Tonight’s viewing is Runaway Jury, which I’ve seen before but had been on my mind lately. Great story and a great cast.

So good. So so good. (And now to wait for the earworm to disappear…)

I’m not putting anyone on a pedestal but at every opportunity to be a shithead who throws marginalized people under a bus this man chooses the opposite and he’s wildly popular because of it and I don’t understand what about that isn’t clicking for other dems

I want chocolate and I have none, and I want a drink and I have none either. Le Sigh.

That moment when your Eldest kid goes to a fancy French bakery and brings you something. ❤️❤️❤️

Have a friend who had a serious Covid infection while pregnant. The baby was born with some health challenges and ended up passing away of SIDS at only a few months old. Always wondered if the mom’s infection was relevant to his passing.

That moment when you find out you can go watch the Spider Verse movies in the big screen for free. Whatever shall I do.

how much of the DOGE-driven destruction of the nation’s research and development capacity is because these people are AI cultists who believe that we’re on the verge of creating a sentient general intelligence?

2nd Semifinal for the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest is in the books and it was a really nice show (to make up for the lower quality of the songs). The segment with the 2020 Songs was particularly enjoyed here at home.

EUROVISION IS UPON US! (Yes, I’ll be watching later today, as usual.)

There’s this band I really like, and one of my older kids likes it too. So she introduced a song of theirs to a friend, who started to really like it and introduced it to both her dad and her boyfriend. 😁 Next step: World Domination.

Rocket is clearly uninterested in the sewing videos I’m watching. I can’t understand why, this is such interesting stuff.

I love how people send Happy Birthday wishes on The Other App, but it takes special attention to not thank them in the wrong language. 😜

Just some phenomenal protest art in Union Market, DC.

They’re mad their mom made them clean their room that one time that she got fed up with doing it herself. Since then they’ve created the worldview that women not being subservient to their wishes is a slight that needs to be corrected.

And there you have it. 🎯🎯🎯 (Two-post idea that is spot on.)
