   Antwort in einer englischen Ratesendung, woher sich die beiden Mitspieler (junger Mann, ältere Frau) kennen: "I met him 38 years ago in a hospital, when he popped out." 😁

     Die Sendung ist von 2015. Aber so oder so: Ich finde, dass die Leute in den Sendungen sehr viel entspannter und lockerer sind.

   I'm on S2 of #ForAllMankind and I just bawled my face out as they did because families dealing with trauma well written will never not do that to me.

   I love that several characters:
   1) Are broken and do and say awful things because of it
   2) Acknowledge it, see what it's doing to people and search for ways to cope and/or improve

     I saw the last three episodes in a row tonight.

     My poor heart. That sure took a number of turns.

     I am exhausted. What a show!

   We took my 5 year old grandson #GS3 to a weather expo at the local mall. He got to meet one of the meteorologists from https://www.ky3.com/weather/ and to talk to an employee of NOAA / NWS, who had a little vortex machine for kids to see and touch. He also got to see another station's "storm tracker" vehicle.
   
   Kudos to KY3's weatherman, who gave #GS3 and #GS4 his full attention and talked with them like they mattered. I am new in the Springfield area, but it is really cool to see.

   Just read a long thoughtful analysis of DV Dune by someone who loves the books. Their analysis was that every choice in the DV movies is about focusing on (1) Paul's dilemma, (2) the aspect of religion as a tool for power.

   Removing the mentats, Guild, the Emperor, CHOAM, etc from the core story and putting pairs in opposition, like Chani and Jessica, and North and South is all about this focus.

     This made me think, if this kind of streamlining is what it takes to make a movie compelling to the casual audience, wouldn't it be cool to make one movie from each aspect, in such a way that each movie stands on its own as a compelling story to watch, but they all fit together as a greater whole?

     I don't mean Dunevnecessarily, andvcertainly not this Dune, that was just the seed that made me think about this.

     There are certainly movies that have been done like this, with parallel story lines that fit together, but then it's in one movie, and the threads usually interlace and don't make sense on their own.

     But multiple movies as not sequels, not prequels, but parallelquels? Episodes of TV shows have done it, but it would be cool to see as a daring mega project.

   The people in the old movie pronounced Harkonnen the obvious way from the spelling, /har-KOH-nen/, so I was confused when the people in the new movie said it differently. The trailer slightly annoyed me, to be honest.

   But then I heard an interview with Frank Herbert, and he pronounced it like Härkönen with an American accent, /HAR-konen/, so that's it, voice of God.

     #GS4 is at the doctor's office. They'll probably combine the "sick child" visit with the periodic "well child" visit.

   The simultaneously best and worst movie promotion interview ever, Ronny Chieng and Awkwafina: Kung Fu Panda 4.

   It's impossible to tell how this interview was intended to go. Maybe it was supposed to go *exactly* like this. Either way, completely unhinged, hilarious, and a jab at the movie promotion campaign trail.

   Wait, are we doing the bit now, or was that sincere? Sincere! Sincere! Ok, let's start over! Again! 🤣

    I haven't heard the terms "work wife" or "work husband" before. It seems like the kind of thing people would joke about because they believe joking about it will create plausible deniability and smoke screens for actually having an affair.

    Please be closer to your family than to your colleagues. But maybe that's not possible in the US environment and that's why these are US terms.

      @clacke I never heard of such a thing until I worked for a government agency that sends people to remote offices for months at a time. And, yes, there is a very high rate of infidelity and lots of sexual harassment claims.
      
      And lots and lots of required training meant to divert those who might be considering such behaviors.

      @Hypolite Petovan Admittedly my perspective is skewed as I hear about it in "am I the asshole" threads and other relationship threads, which do not generally have the success stories, only the bad examples.

      Having a work friend is obviously a good thing, but likening it to a romantic relationship, even as a joke, seems to me that it would have an obvious potential for problems unless everyone involved know each other well and trust each other.

    Also, penguin 🐧 week seems to be going well. #GS4 has started asking for penguin videos. I am tempted to keep it going instead of starting seal week on Sunday.
    
    He tolerates #GS3's weather and space interests, but they aren't really his thing. We're looking for his own thing to explore with him.

    #MiniReview #VideoGames Gloomhaven (2021) immediately felt like a Games Workshop production to me, not without reason: it was originally conceived in 2017 as a board game including miniatures. It's a turn-based dungeon crawler with an original action card economy, but both the breadth of possible actions and the anxiety-inducing card burning mechanic made me quit the game at the first skirmish of the campaign.
