To be fair - audiobooks are outstanding for long rucks.

And "produced" audiobooks that are voice acted, with sound effects, etc are often more entertaining that most of the dogshit tv shows & movies out there.
Nope. I won't listen to books. Not even giving it a chance.

I drive sometimes when I go out of Bangkok. Driving here is a waste of time though and since public transportation here isn't overrun by subhuman filth it's a good opportunity to read.
I like reading. I do it thru app tho on phone not actual copy.


....most of the time. Which isn't very often.

I download what I can off of pirate Bay. Right now I'm reading a paperback that wasn't available for download. Books in English are expensive here.

The Bear is back. Off to a great start. Back to the kitchen where the show thrived.
I never really watched because, in everything he's in, he looks like he's about to have a stroke. Like he's got "tired", "remorseful", and "about to lose my shit" down as an actor. And that's it it.

That's him in every episode lol

The thing is, first season is fantastic imo. Then, they start moving away from the restaurant and its like every other show. First season is kitchen chaos.

He looks like he is either on his way to or on his way from an initial divorce proceeding, depending on the scene.

Black girl would be sexy as hell if she waxed that stash. Her whitevoice is almost as impressive as mine.

The new staff really brings the show up a notch. Especially, the new food caller outter. Also, sexy.

Think I'm gonna have to pull the plug on Blindspot. The story is already pretty shaky (I'm only about halfway through S2), but I can let that go if the episodes are good enough.

They're not. It's starting to feel like they've already started making it up as they go along.

And it's not overtly woke, but enough that when you stack it all up, it's incredibly cringe. Especially the girl-power shit.

There's someone of every race & nationality all the time - a white guy, a white girl, black dude, latina, persian woman for a while, persian dude is off & on, either black or mixed (can't tell) chick, black chick, a British South American...it always feels like they're making sure to check as many boxes as they can.

And the women are always the toughest & smartest ones. If there's a fight, the woman wins. If there's a fight between a bunch of people that's going 50/50, it's a woman joining the fray that tips the scales. A woman will fight two people and win. The women are usually the ones that solve the biggest mysteries & puzzles.

The episode I'm on has them doing this scavenger hunt type thing chasing this pair of hackers. All the participants end up in this warehouse and Jewel Staite reveals herself as one of the hackers. As she does, the monologue is along the lines of, "Oh, you were expecting a man? Me and my SISTER are the ones that started this ring..."

Like I said - it's not always overt or right in your face, but it's the quips and tone that put it firmly into eyeroll territory.
