@brandosm 10 year gap between seasons. About a 6 year lapse in the story. Season 2 takes place almost entirely in Colombia. The ending literally haunted my dreams last night.

@planetJoseph Well I thought it was over after season one. Wasn’t it pre Covid?

Just finished season two of The Night Manager. I need to process! Is that it? Show’s over?

Be sure to read
1. All of Tolstoy
2. All of Dostoevsky
3. All of Shakespeare
4. KJV Bible
That’ll put you on a solid foundation

This second season of The Night Manager taking place in Colombia is a triumph for selling the beauty of that land to viewers. Holy shit. It’s stunning.

Whatever expands their horizons, enlarges their passions, exposes them to the world as large as it is, and then facilitates their ability to interrogate themselves and confront reality equipped with the knowledge they earn there. Or… just say poetry.

“College is for networking and landing a lucrative career.” No. College is for broadening your cinematic & literary horizons, being exposed to the best that’s ever been thought or written, going mad with joy in the library and learning what a small person you are in a big world.

@planetJoseph it is truly insane that they cast her at all when at the time of her casting she was ON PROBATION FOR DV

ABC has pulled "The Bachelorette" following domestic violence allegations involving Taylor Frankie Paul. “In light of the newly released video just surfaced today, we have made the decision to not move forward with the new season of ‘The Bachelorette’ at this time, and our focus is on supporting the family,” the statement from a Disney Entertainment Television spokesperson reads. variety.com/2026/tv/news/t…

Where’s a region you’ve never been that seems kind of lame or boring but that you are curious about.
For me it’s Alabama and Mississippi. Is that the Deep South? The swamp south? The gulf south?

I’d go to Denny’s at 11 pm with my laptop and crank out a B+ paper in 8 hours on nothing but sheer panic and bad coffee then head straight to class

Millennials are the elite generation because they cranked out 12-page essays the night before they were due. No ChatGPT. No Claude. Just lo-fi beats playing in the background, Black coffee at midnight, footnotes that were somehow correct, and pure delusion. Grade was an A minus. Period.

@planetJoseph When we lived in Tucson, people would always say, “Yeah, it’s hot outside today. But it’s 5 degrees hotter in Phoenix.” ☀️

It’s gonna hit 108 degrees in Phoenix this week. Having grown up there, that kind of heat this early in the year is insane.

Listen I love water flavoring packets and stuff like that but do not believe them when they say “mix into 16 oz of water.” That tastes like concentrate. Most ones I’ve tried taste much better in 40-50 oz of water.
