Yellowstone: Wish I'd known there was still half a season left, and that Costner may not come back for it. Some good, some bad, some stupid to it. Still managed to suck me in. It subverted my expectations and made the protagonists into a cowboy mafia, which was an interesting spin on a ranch family defending their legacy, the eponymous ranch that's adjacent to the park of the same name. It often struggles with trying to create sympathetic characters out of a bunch of dysfunctional, self-interested killers. Frequently suffers from godawful dialog. Has a few true soap opera level stupid situations. 1883: Yellowstone prequel, one season mini-series. Tells the tale of the Dutton family's journey across the Oregon Trail that led them to the Yellowstone. I liked it quite a bit more than the original show. It did a good job of showing the sheer brutality of life on the Oregon Trail. Narration was annoying, though. 1923: Best of the three. Set between World Wars, a mining baron (Timothy Dalton) is trying to take over the ranch. Big Damn Hero son is off in Africa dealing with his personal demons. He finds romance and adventure while trying to get back home. Waiting for season 2. The Americans: Almost through Season 2. Great Cold War spy show, with plenty of twists and turns.

Reagan is probably spinning in his grave the way the Trump-lead Republican party has been in bed with Russia. -

You know, I didn't think Morbius was horrible. Not great, but it was a pretty basic, straightforward origin story. I'd watch a sequel. It'd be nice to get better writers for said sequel. -

If my premise were wrong, organizations (military, police, gangs) wouldn't have to train the reluctance to kill out of people. You'd be far harder pressed to find any credible stats indicating that "most people" are inclined to kill each other. The global murder rate (2019) is 6.2/100,000. So is 6.2 "most" or is 99,993.8 "most"? -

And when the morons with the guns have grown up in an environment that encourages solving problems with violence. Thankfully, most of humanity hasn't had its humanity beaten out of it. -

Even if Biden's cognitively impaired, I'll take him over a (much more) cognitively and morally impaired Trump. -

The oral arguments in the Colorado removal of Trump from the ballot case were today (yesterday now). Here's an interview with Colorado's lawyer: I watched the thing on YouTube. I think the above video covers the main points well, but if you're morbidly curious or have too much time on your hands, here it is: I shared it to a time stamp after the talking heads, but if you have even more time to waste, you can wind it back to the beginning. -

I tried tapir, being something vaguely elephant shaped with a shorter trunk. Didn't go well. I might try the pre-elephants later, but I'm going to snooze now. -

/imagine chaotic hellbeast that looks like a cross between an elephant with no trunk and a warthog --v 6.0 This one landed closer -- sort of -- but 3/4 of the generations had trunks: Seems like "chaotic hellbeast" shifted the context enough to allow more of a hybrid, maybe? -

Here's one with the prompt: illustration of animal that is a cross between an elephant and a warthog in sketchnote style --no trunk --v 6.0 Again, ignored the --no trunk. I like sketchnote style a lot. I tried to erase the trunk with vary(region), but it really, really wants its elephant hybrids to have a trunk.
