food inflation is out of control, even at costco. So many things there have increased significantly in price.

game of thrones & vikings all in one room!

watched some of the action scenes of sequels after Terminator 2. It is interesting to see how all of them really drown in excess/CGI and are attempting to capture the magic of the first 2 films but fail every time. The main problem is how they try to repeat the same scenes as the originals but with inferior characters and extreme overuse of CGI that it makes the whole action sequence look so fake. There's no tension and immersion.

The previous two in the trilogy are among the best WW2 creations of all time (Band of Brothers and the Pacific) as they closely follow actual history books & memoirs. I don't like the cast for this new film compared to the previous ones at first glance but I can see that there is a commitment to the book that it is based off of. I also don't like how they made the pilots too good looking and glamorous compared to real life. American airmen suffered horrifying losses in WW2, hundreds of thousands of men were casualties.

The New show has Frida G (high fashion model, was a top model for a while on BZ). I am a big fan of the original Vikings series and Travis Fimmel. It never pretended to be historically accurate (it is inaccurate) but is such an entertaining show with so many good scenes. In a way I like it better than the second half of Game of Thrones. The principal OG crew had great chemistry with each other. His role as Ragner was epic and it seems to have been the highlight of his career. Like a perfect fit. One of my most favorite roles in film/tv. He was in a bunch of other things afterwards but seemed out of place .

Hunter is trans, I was completely fooled (2nd model that fooled me). Even has breast implants!

I see the decline as being slow but steady & easily observable. I see it everyday in America. The inflection points have happened in the recessions, covid-19, depression and the Ukraine War. Basically a diminished future is what is in store for North America & Europe. I agree that there is massive self destructiveness but it's at a societal-level scale along with corrupt, delusional & poor leadership. The West is declining mostly from within while 'globalization' increasingly works against them as they become more and more uncompetitive in the world. The rise of the fanatical obsession with Race, Gender, and Sexual orientation happened in the Obama years. I see the key historical point as being in the Great Recession years that began in 2006. This is where the American dream died and died in American politics. No sane person can talk about American exceptionalism today. The more time and energy are absorbed with race, gender, and sex, the less the really productive things in society get done. It is a replacement pseudo-religion after the grey masses have rejected traditional values and God. Meanwhile as they are distracted by it they are being robbed blind. The American people are currently outside of history. They are helpless, and too cowardly to do violent revolution. Their anger is merely projected onto digital screens or in talking, not real actions. I suspect that is why the liberal democrats are so crazy about persecuting Trump, they are afraid that one day the people will use radical action against them and try to save the nation.
