We mainly watched because Jax seems to watch everything and anything that is ‘Wine’. I didn’t not like the idea of watching it … and - subtitles - in three languages? I was prepared - I thought.
But I wasn’t.
Just a wonderful 8 episode series and no - you don’t need to know anything about wine to enjoy it …
I know that ‘when the going gets tough - the tough get going’ … anyone know how long you need to be going for? #AskingForAFriend
We Are Both Right.
If ever you need a reminder that there is more than one way of looking at a problem. I often talk about the over surveillance of and in society. (A long time critic of London surveillance for example.)
My message … Less Cameras. Less Surveillance.
And then you read this from a group I belong to ….
In Somalia to address the violence, like there was a killing of all the medical school graduates a couple years ago (my friend) feels that if they had cameras everywhere and could identify the perpetrators we could reduce the violence.
Their message … More Cameras. More Surveillance.

🎵 To me Chubby Checker and Bob Dylan seem to be from totally different generations .. but in fact are the same age. 🤯
Paging bright intelligent, thinking people … you know who you are.
Umair does tend to be ‘out there’. ‘Sometimes’ 😂 … but have a read of this: (Why We’re in) A New Age of Global Conflict - and once digested you think to yourself - ‘yeah - but’ … reply below - tell us why he’s wrong.
Seriously?
Do you coddiwomple?
🎥 The Gunman, 2015 - ★★★★
Watched it a while back - and reminded of it last night as I surfed Netflix for a good watching experience. In the end I elected not to rewatch - but it really is so very good. Sean doing his thing, along with Javier, Idris and even Ray = what a cast!
Yesterday I read three totally different and separate pieces that were not about tech and certainly not about Musk or Zuck and somehow all three managed to introduce the concept of a cage fight into their respective narratives.
Funny - when Manton first switched on ability to follow Mastodon users - I followed a lot - and then later decided that they were cluttering my timeline - so unfollowed - except of course - hard to find them all. Even now many months later, I still suddenly see one of those accounts pop up in the stream.
I must be nearly there now?

DeSantis proves he is a loser.
When I first arrived in San Francisco from the UK years and years and years ago - one of my favorite late night haunts was Hamburger Mary’s. Life moved on - didn’t go anymore and never really thought about them until this morning when I read that they took DeSantis to court and won over one of his stupid ‘laws’.
I know … Let’s build a wind-farm to power an oil field.
There’s that language thing again … Farms and fields … don’t they sound nice?
’Ingested’ … now there’s a word to use-in reporting a horrible death.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Lana Del who?
