I don't have any streaming services, so I went to the library to browse and saw they have High Life. I've seen clips so took a chance.
It's non-linear so it's kind of hard to follow but the thing that tripped me up the most was slowly realizing one of the actors is Andre 3000.

The federal shutdown and cuts to SNAP benefits have placed an unfair and unexpected burden on households. No one should have to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.

I've been going around the house for the last month saying "Ghosts" in my fake Wisconsin accent. I got the BBC series from the library today and kept doing it.
Jing asked why I keep saying it like that and I have no reason other than I think it sounds funny.

We create so many unnecessary burdens for both the provider and recipient rather than doing the morally correct and bureaucratically efficient thing.
THEY ARE NOT ALLOWING ANY MORE PEOPLE IN LINE AT MAC TO RECEIVE JOURNEY PASSES. Tell your people so they don’t waste time and money trying to get there. This was entirely avoidable. We knew people were going to come out like crazy for these passes. Free bus access is life changing. #bagthefarebox
