Re: What are you watching?

The Chestnut Man series on Netflix. It's a Swedish (I think) series but the English dubbing is done by the same actors that played the parts in their native language and you don't have to read subtitles, you can concentrate on the action. It's a really slow burn kind of crime thriller. The crimes a...

Re: 2022 Winter Olympics

I vaguely remembered the scandal as I was very busy in those days. Eventually they gave the Canadian team a Gold medal too and they were “co-...

Re: trump (the former guy)

Remember, early in his presidency, he met with some Russian officials and handed them some classified documents?
No, I don't remember that. I remember him meeting with Lavrov in the Oval and him telling Lavrov highly classified stuff involving another country (probably Israel).
