    Whatcha reading?

    I finally got through The Demon of Unrest tonight after stopping it after 100 pages a month ago. I just hit a wall with it and had to pivot to a different book so I picked up a book about Lana Turner's boyfriend's mysterious murder in the 1950s. I had a trip to LA planned and wanted something center around the Golden Age of Hollywood. It did the trick. Came home and it got me through the fog and I was able to make it through the rest of The Demon of Unrest this month. I can see why it was on a lot of Best of lists. It's really really good. Makes me want to take a visit to Charleston and filled a void I had in my superficial knowledge about the lead up to and start of the Civil War. I'll have to pick up more Erik Larson books in 2025. I know my wife was a huge fan of The Devil in the White City and we own The Splendid and the Vile. I was very excited to hear that Ron Chernow will have out a new biography in 2025 about Mark Twain. I tore through his Hamilton and Washington biographies. Grant's was too much of trudge and I never finished it. Comes out in March.
  5. I haven't read it but Yancy's in the Razor Girl book.
  6. Bad Monkey is getting a 2nd season.
  7. Greenlit for a 2nd season. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/bad-monkey-renewed-season-2-apple-tv-1236088643/#recipient_hashed=db1afb0a376362859e982882c60af6df7685b274bcae50f3a66b61d4bea3e639&recipient_salt=0384ced08ddc1f9aba47ecc2c583ac9efeaaa0f53970b7f29567816730255ef6&utm_medium=email&utm_source=exacttarget&utm_campaign=Live Feed Alerts&utm_content=574102_12-17-2024&utm_term=16094717
  8. Well, we have to pivot away from the gun to something else to be to blame. Have to protect the gun at all costs.
  9. They were almost clear. They almost made it to Christmas break where they would've been safe. Reminds me of Uvalde. Those kids almost made it to summer break. Instead they died because we worship at the altar of the 2nd Amendment.
  10. 3/4ths of the way to a billion dollars worldwide.
  11. Does Klopp take over?
  12. This is on my 2025 watch list. Wife mentioned it but we need more time given how many seasons it is.
  13. You say this yet Hulu has numerous great shows all in one service. Shogun, multiple seasons of Fargo, The Bear, Say Nothing, and Only Murders in the Building. Apple TV+ has Shrinking, Ted Lasso, Severance, Bad Monkey, and Disclaimer. I'll grant that you need multiple services to get enjoyable content but that was the case before with needing HBO, AMC, and FX to get good content in the "Prestige TV" age. It just used to be all bundled together for over $120 a month. And OP doesn't really watch of like tv or movies anymore but he sure loves to capitalize every word in a sentence.
  14. The blackface portions really hit hard though. That's been the barrier to watching them with our kids because I don't know if they can push past that. Kids today miss certain things like nuance and "this is how things were back then". We find this some with 80s films that say "faggot" a lot.
  15. Hey Pep, how many goals did Man U just score on you? (Firemans4Horn, that's your cue)
  16. Not one but two errors. That's class.
  17. The USPS stuff never made sense to me because how are they going to get around all the pensions that are due to retirees? You take away people's pensions and Elon better hope he has plenty of security to not get Luigi'ed by an angry former mailposter.
  18. And already covered. Someone's going to kill Santa and the reindeer when they mistake him for alien drones.
  19. Quite the accomplishment.
  20. I kinda hate myself and what I've become as a fan that I can both appreciate what Quinn has done and really want his time to be over so we can move on to Arch. This should be a time of tremendous satisfaction and contentment as a fan of this program given the utter failure we've been force fed the past 10 years. Sadly, it's a bit like how I felt as the Ehlinger years were winding down. That said, I want Quinn to go out in a blaze of glory where he's going deep into the playoff and helping his draft stock. The table has been laid out for Quinn. Time to seize the moment. It would help if his teammates and coaching would also seize the moment.
