Starting a 3 day miniva (new word. mini + vacation... this will probably show up on the test). So, I stayed up late watching "BioHackers."
I'll be honest, I thought this was going to be rather forgettable and I was wrong. The cast is interesting and their problems and secrets help build the suspense. The episodes are short, I think the longest is only 46 minutes. There's not a lot of what I think of as character building fodder used by a lot of series to bring you hour-long episodes.
And, of course, the greatest cycling race in the world started yesterday in Nice, France. I will be honest, it did bring a tear to my eye watching all those riders in the Peloton. Lots of crashes ( a bad thing), but there are always crashes. Here's a highlight clip.
Finally, as expected, the Idiot Jerk in the White House Tweeted some sort of inanity about his convention having lower ratings than the DNC. His Ego Extravaganza was supposed to reboot his campaign. Biden's approval rating when up after the Democrat's Convention. The Idiot Jerk's... well, it stayed the same. He does have his base who will stick with him like flies on shit. To paraphrase CNN, 'a loud minority support him, not a silent majority.'
I wish we could wake up tomorrow and never hear from the dump ever again.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I don't think that will happen any time soon, even after he loses the election.
DeleteIt's all about popularity and bigger numbers to him. Not people dying of COVID, not black men being murdered in the streets.
ReplyDeleteBut about him.
It's interesting that he never realized his ratings might have gone up if he hadn't wanted to be a tinfoil dictator.
DeleteI was out all day today so I clicked on the video of the Tour de France - and it said "video uploading not available in your country". Ha, funny considering I'm in France. Oh well!
ReplyDeleteThat happens to me fairly regularly if I try to watch something from Europe, especially music videos. It has to do with copyrights I think.
DeleteOh, I loved Biohackers! I liked that both the protagonist and antagonist were female characters. I also liked that it was told on flashbacks. It was very good. I think they set it up for a second season.
ReplyDeleteAnd Cheeto was bloviating left and right. The trumpanzees have been breaking havoc in the country. Such a disgrace. And he still has about a 40-something% of approval? Flabbergasting.
XOXO
That approval rating is for all Americans, among likely voters it's down to around 31%.
DeleteAnd yes, there's a 2nd series of episodes of Biohackers in the works.
