I’m annoyed by the breathless articles in NYT and co about the supposedly uncertain German election. Relax, it will be boring - coalition of CDU and SPD + if needed Greens or FDP. AfD out in the cold.

Really enjoying Severance. Old school SciFi that takes our world and disguises it just enough to examine it in ways that would otherwise be awkward. Very much in the tradition of Twilight Zone, Star Trek TNG, BSG, Black Mirror…
