READ MY MIND

crantzBest beloved Elly has requested we find some new shows to add to our viewing list that:
1) Less to very less white
2) Little to no cops
3) Still mysteries
Which left out Murder She Wrote and Miss Marple, unfortunately, at point number 1. Frankie Drake actually fit the bill pretty nicely but I'm using that as my dinner eating show and I don't want to share.
I thought about putting a call out for story recs except even when I specify *very clearly* the type of shows we're looking for in question (episodic only, no major arcs, on the light side of violence) we always get nc-17 five seasons with one mystery in its entirety recs. Every time!
Every damn time!
I guess I shouldn't be saying 'read my mind', I should be saying 'read my post' but this is the internet where people ask for women writers of colour and get recced Terry Pratchett and Brandon Sanderson.
Anyway, I'm getting my browse on with my many many many many streaming channels bought during a sale so I have 2 months to go through some shows, you know?
I tried out a concert on Stingray and was like 'oh hey Megadeath do I like Megadeth?' and the first song featured: Israel, Homeland, and Holy Wars and I went 'okay uhhh I wonder who Rory Gallagher is, he has a nice hat, let's watch his concert!'
Rory Gallagher was a nice treat and I'll check out more of his music.
Have I done anything else lately other than watch things? No, and I'm worried I have another jazz hands depression episode going on or something. Very low motivation. Very low exercise.
I do, however, have a lot of cheese in the fridge. Camembert, oka, some sort of thing with a friar on the front, smoked processed gouda, triple cream brie, fontina, the works. I'm waiting until tomorrow to dig into some of them because we're in a boil water advisory and I want to wait until we're off that before I wash the fruit I got with it for eating.

Maybe I saved a bee when I was at the chemist but I'm not sure.
The AfD was gonna have a an assembly in my town (the German party that Muskler supports) but the counter-demonstration was making so much waves that AfD chickened out. They counter-demonstrate them anyway and now I hear all the faraway drums and chanting through my window. Life is good.

Haha I had no idea who Rory Gallagher was until last night and picked him at random, but yeah definitely not a Megadeth-y kind of singer.
I hope you saved the bee!
Good work counter protesters! I'm proud of you.
