Looking at you Pennsylvania
Went out with Laurie Brown and SdB to watch the series game. Didn't go so well. And why do I think it's emotional prep for the election?
Nick Newman had replied to a tweet a few weeks back asking me what movies I would recommend. I told him to try The Unknown with Lon Chaney and go from there.

watched Lee (Miller) tonight. Worthwhile but be prepared for a rigorous war experience.

been trying to cut back on the bready products for the last two months. mostly successful. lets say an 80% reduction. still snacking on the nuts and some breaded chicken cutlets are the main offenders. maybe a bag of soft corn torillas might have slipped in there.
still not exactly dieting but i am eating a lot more fruit. maybe thats not particularly conducive to dieting if you eat a lot of it but i have to eat something. anyway, just lugged a cantaloupe and pineapple home in my overstrained daypack from the wholesale club. that is joined by some honeycrisps, kiwi, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, grapes and bananas. got some frozen blueberries, bananas, pineapple and strawberries for good measure. if im not making smoothies from the frozen bits im just chopping up the rest and putting it in a bowl to be picked at though ive started in on the yogurt as a mix and got some superfood, not flaxseed but similar to sprinkle on next. ill be making açai bowls before you know it.
some quality trash tv. season 2 of the diplomat airs oct 31.
its the new yorkiest night in sports all starting at the same time except none of the teams are the iconic new york teams in their sport.
final game of the finals for the new york liberty in the wnba. a lot more attention to that sport as has been well noted.... elsewhere.
the yankees are in the world series for the first time since 2009 and will meet either the mets or dodgers who currently lead the mets 3-2.
and the overrated sad sack jets play the steelers in the sunday night marquee matchup and which will have probably more viewers combined than the other two sports since football is king of the airwaves.
i found a streamer that will let me simultcast four events at once so i have the jets on the tv and my laptop split screened with the other two. livin' the life. hope to be asleep by 9.
Had it with this guy. Who uses "extreme left" to identify college students
amusing bb4 show oddly streaming for free on the cw. of course you will recognize the father as one of the teens from the inbetweeners like i absolutely did and didnt google it because he seemed familiar.

In his essay ‘Junk Culture’, published in 1961, Alloway made a similar claim with regard to the objects of assemblage. The objects of this art are not inert, he argues, but have a context and a history. He notes that ‘essential to junk culture is preservation of the original function and status of the objects in the new context of the work of art’.48
dont look for grim war visuals but between this and video of burning children its been a affecting week. probably a lot more gruesome things in reality but this was striking. been warned.
