I agree it was pretty neat and refreshing, but just almost every good scene seemed like a disjoint idea that had to be stitched together. To be fair, that was pretty much the Dr Strange comics for any "major" storyline. Lots of disjointed acid trips tied together in a rather loose framework, that had very little connection to reality because it was magic and weird dimensions rather than sci-fi space that people kind of understood.

Tried a short run in Shadow of War to get back into after not playing for a month. God damn it was frustrating. Every freaking time I try to get somewhere I got ambushed by an orc captain who was immune to nearly every single attack I've got. And when I do get the upper hand, I kept getting interupted by normal orcs..so when I try targetting the normal orcs..the freaking auto target would then pick the captain who is IMMUNE to the freaking attack rather than the orcs that keep hitting me.

Because sometimes, we need a break from some things... and a supercut montage of sword fights is usually distracting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1l5m-h6Ugo

For the other slice of things... For those not following, both Mulvaney and English showed up as the acting director of the CFPB this morning. English was promoted to the position by Richard Corday hours before he resigned. Leandra English has filed a temporary restraining order on Trump and Mulvaney. WashingtonPost - Control of the CFPB

Planning my week accordingly....

The fun thing is that the Honest Trailr for that film was actually written by the Director of it. And he does a whole "Things wrong with this film, there is NO character development in the entire thing. They are who they are at the end of it that they were at the start of it."

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. It was very Luc Besson, and the lead was very po-faced and unemotional through most of it. Atomic Blonde. A nice action-thriller with all the ready mix of cold-war shenanigans, lies, more lies, and people not being who they say they are. Plus a nice sound track for those who grew up in that era.

Well that is why I tend to throw in a bunch of this random stuff. To see what conversation it starts, and get people thinking about all sides of the equation.

On the tangentially related to politics... More than a million pro-repeal net neutrality comments were likely faked by bots And for anyone still trying to understand net neutraility, here it's explained with stick figures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAxMyTwmu_M

Working on the literature review to put in the appendix before submitting an assignment this afternoon. Feeling rather nifty I managed to slip in Person of Interest as a reference cited in the body of the paper, and now justifying it in the aforementioned review.
