Screw you guys, I like Mandalorian. It's like watching an old school western where men talk little and shoot a lot. 

 

same, Chapter 3 could be the greatest 37mins in space opera history

 

everyone in the galaxy knows membership in a wretched hive of scum and villainy requires placing a blaster-proof shield over their heart in the event of a showdown with a Mandalorian

no, not waiting, but it's so much fun, zero day ... last revolution was six years ago today

 

if the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn is a PS5 launch title, then yeah ...

nice to hold on to something during this time; happy birthday, 244

not the text that's too small, the button icons next to the text have me squinting; or it could be the astonishing texture fidelity in Death Stranding, making me go blind ... really is something to see

They don't, ruin it. Doom Patrol outdoes itself every episode. Definitely the weirdest but probably the best collection of individual character arcs on television. Put them all together and then add Alan Tudyk ... magic.

hard to take a break from Death Stranding but word is Kirstjen Nielsen is Anonymous

 

also, belay my last hope for conviction in the Senate

 

got a good feeling about it, Death Stranding, this Friday

is it perjury to state you 'don't recall' doing something three witnesses corroborate as being a thing you did ... what defense could Sondland plausibly concoct ...

oh, Seattle, near Redmond, I understand ... great map

what a treat, 4pm the day before ... work never saw me leave so early on a Thursday

also, PS4 pre-load begins tomorrow: backup for my abysmal inability at WASD; The Outer Worlds isn't, by chance, real-time with pause, screen-edge scrolling, is it ...

am personally hoping it's also a game people who don't enjoy Fallout will love

there it is ... MS Store pre-load 37.34 GB

too many.

HA! Good Fun!

 

would like to know why 'walks back' is every outlet's default for unrepentant reconstruction of truth

 

am aware our hope for conviction is flickering and bemoaned but it's all there is to cling to

 

probably inaccurate, purely emotional salve for the last 31 days in American politics ... watch the original John Wick and substitute Keanu for 'the rule of law'

likely wishful to think, but the piece by McRaven reads as the lone raindrop that will break the dam against conviction in the Senate

If our promises are meaningless, how will our allies ever trust us? If we can’t have faith in our nation’s principles, why would the men and women of this nation join the military? And if they don’t join, who will protect us? If we are not the champions of the good and the right, then who will follow us? And if no one follows us — where will the world end up?

I don't get what the point of this is.

could be ... a jilted former co-owner on his fourth of the morning, or a bid from below to brandish 4K as though it were anything but an expensive pain in the ass

caught the debate, though we don't have cable news, it was live on the NYT page

 

still no breakouts, no one undeniably upfront; an aggressive Klobuchar; peace-maker Booker; practiced-message into-the-camera Steyer; Warren besieged but focused; my guy Mayor Pete strong if overly; Harris confident, kind of indignant; Biden assumed his words have the only gravity; Sanders acted as one with the most to lose; Yang, stuck, in his sphere of expertise; and Gabbard, still refusing to condemn Assad, lie-contending American troops were in northern Syria solely to foment a 'regime-change war'

 

more or less united front against the conduct of the president was the upside

oh, am hype ... 8 days 21hrs 'til MS store release, 9 days 2hrs 'til PS4 

he is a plant, both unwitting and willing to further solely his own interests at the feet of Putin

January, 2017, from the American Intelligence Community's assessment of Russia's interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election

 

also, Russia committed war crimes in Syria five months ago

An analysis of previously unpublished Russian Air Force radio recordings, plane spotter logs and witness accounts allowed The Times to trace bombings of four hospitals in just 12 hours in May and tie Russian pilots to each one.

same, also unable

 

4pm on the 24th is pretty sweet, though

They think it's an abscessed tooth but they won't know for sure until the 22nd when they put her under and then go in there and look around. At that point they'll either pull the tooth or biopsy the lump if it's not the tooth.

okay well then crossing all digits 'til then

if the cabal has a liquor cabinet, am down to join ... already tried careful introspection, pragmatism, detached observation, yoga, even buried my head in the sand ... nothing works in the face of this

and

 

48hrs fingers still crossed, what did the vet say ...

miss storytime, how's the housekeeper ... still alive and reticent, hopefully ... did you keep the vehicle

can sympathize with the labor perspective; our daily for a long time was repairing the worst impulses of diy'ers and homeowners attempting to 'beautify' their property, although basketball-sized patches were rare and unwelcome

last year the Section 8 tenant down the street burned the place to the ground, now rebuilt -- says three bedrooms but the structure cannot be more than 1,000 sq. ft., no garage, with an asking rent of 2750 ... another reason we will never own a home down here

 

added some clouds today with a sponge to our electric work cart rooftop vista ... the sun was taken from the outline of a roll of masking tape and then cutting in the 'safety yellow' color by hand

chances of getting in trouble for defacing district property are ... unknown

 

also crossing fingers, so sorry to hear that ... hoping for the best

 

woops sorry stomped Gorth

lot going on today ...

one tiny glimmer of a speck inside a mote hidden in an atom

The opportunity afforded to Romney by Trump here is enormous. The first Republican officeholder of consequence ... who backs Trump’s impeachment and removal will have a chance to become one of the most pivotal figures in American history. Romney could lead some of his Senate colleagues to join him in calling for removal. For other senators, he could provide much-needed cover.
