Started watching "Best Medicine" and made it ten minutes to the opening credits. Before this episode ends will there be an explanation for why he's such an asshole and moved to this town? If not, I'm bailing on it now.

Don’t know about the tempo change in the middle & of course you have to overlook the host, but they are shredding from the jump, not easy to do on a TV talk show.

talked to the owner of a denim company that produces jeans in the US. he said that he's seen declining sales abroad in EU and Canada. stores tell him that customers don't want to buy MiUSA products bc Trump makes dumb, pointless threats like "taking over Canada or Greenland"

#FilmSky, a quick question; what is the pettiest thing you have had to be annoyed at a film? I ask because I am watching The Gift from 2000, and the main character does divination with Zener Cards, which are not the same thing as Tarot at all. Why go for a more boring looking option?

It doesn't embarrass me to admit that Bernard Sumner ranks among my favorite lyricists. Somehow he offers universal truths in the most banal language. Luckily the rhythm section and synths help. Happy birthday. humanizingthevacuum.wordpress.com/2018/08/20/r...
