Caught up on House of the Dragon, not bad so far. Finished The Acolyte, wouldn’t recommend, seemed rather pointless. Watched the very first episode of The Bear, very good.
The Bear is great. It's a lot of drama that builds great character development
The same thing we watch every week pinky
Started dragonball z tv series 2
Honestly? YouTube stuff.
Tasting history is fun, and there's multiple ways to enjoy it without ads or bullshit getting in the way.
Plus, it's the only place you can almost pick and choose between concerts from the entirety of live recording.
So, that's what I've been watching when I watch anything at all, the last few weeks.
Tasting history is fun
Fuck yeah, it is! And plenty things there can be tried at home. (Including garum, although it would be unwise to do so.) I can recommend his takes on tuh'u and placenta.
Other fun non-political, non-gaming channels to watch:
Love or hate algorithms, I will say YouTube recommending Tasting History to me was a slam dunk. Very cozy channel.
Yeah, he has it nailed. Casual enough to be welcoming, enough good research to make it informative, and he's just so dang accessible in his presentation.
Prison Break and The Sopranos.
I've been having a hard time getting into narrative stuff lately so it's mostly been YouTube stuff. The big thing is I have been catching up on the DotA 2 esports scene to get ready for my yearly watch of The International. I quit playing like 8 years ago but still enjoy watching games, so I've been having VODs of the Riyadh Masters/Esports World Cup games running in the background.
Always watching Steve Mould, Basically Homeless and Coffeezilla videos whenever they come out.
Finally I've been rewatching Mythbusters as my nightly viewing before bed. The saints who keep the Streamlined Mythbusters torrent seeded are heroes of the internet.
Mostly porn. Also I follow someone's patreon to watch WWE.
Scooby Doo. I think the series I watched came out in 2010, Daphne was using a flip phone.
Killing Eve and Netflix's Easy Bake Battle.
Competitive baking and cooking shows are my guilty pleasure, when I'm not feeling well.
Currently watching Colony, it's really good.
I liked this too. Well done with great actors.
I'm so confused
She is an author, both of video games and of books. She made a game with what many have complained are some very cheap sprite knock-offs of other games, and in the book she later made based on the game, this was alluded to when the first main character encountered by the female protagonist (the one depicted in blue) is described as looking exactly like Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII.
When I went to wish her a happy birthday, I wanted to do it in a cheerful way, so I began drawing the characters, but then realized the arrangement would've been weird without context, so I also drew Sephiroth, another character in Final Fantasy and the villain who Cloud Strife canonically fights, to make it equally perceivable as a Final Fantasy drawing as it would be a drawing of her book/game, even though Sephiroth's existence is only jokingly implied in the book/game.
And then I added a bit of dialogue because that's my thing when I draw stuff like that. The text reads "do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Jenova", Jenova being the name of the alien cloned to create Sephiroth in Final Fantasy, thus I was remaking a common pun in the fandom. It was the only thing I could think of that would both fit the situation in the drawing, be enjoyed by the author who also happens to be into spiritual studies (which is a part of how I came to enjoy the author), and need the least amount of explaining to anyone who came across the chalk drawing.
Watched 20 minutes of Deep Water Horizon from the middle. And 20 hours of YouTube.
I can't believe I am almost to end of Case Closed... There were like 800 episodes! 😵💫
Tried watching Axel F all week but fell asleep every time I put it on. Trying again tonight, my wife is partying at Timeless festival in Landgraaf, so I probably fall asleep again, earlier.
Caught up on house of dragon, the the bear and sopranos
Also watched wild wild space
My wife and I are watching Mr Robot
The Acolyte. I waited for all episodes to be launched and it was very much worth the wait. People on the internet just love to complain!
Way to dismiss the legit criticism.
