Watched.

It’s the start of the fall season of TV. I’m mostly happy (and very sad) that The Good Place is back for it’s final season. Thanks to Hulu I might partake in the cop-ish drama Stumptown and the criminal profiler show Prodigal Son. If it weren’t for Hulu I wouldn’t know what day, channel, or time they come on.

My sister and I started watching POSE on Netflix. It’s hard enough to binge watch a show when you live with someone and when you don’t live with someone it’s too hard to arrange time to get to the other’s house to do a full days worth of binge watching. So we decided to stay at home and push PLAY on Netflix at the same time and text each other the whole time. It’s worked out very very well. It’s kinda like when Twitter used to live tweet Scandal.

Men’s Pants.

So. I’ve been on the hunt for all cotton women’s jeans. I hate that every time I buy jeans they have spandex in it and it makes them curl up at the bottom and also rubs into my thighs. We went to Macy’s and I went to the men’s section of Levi’s and asked the kid what pants I could get. He told me to try the 512s – Slim Taper. They have room enough for my butt and hips and full pockets in the front and back and because they are tapered they fit at the ankles when I wear Chucks with no socks or tennis shoes with socks. They’re thicker denim too so I don’t expect to bust through them in the thigh area. At least not so quickly. This is my new life.

Stupid Watergate II: The Stupidest Watergate (this is what Last Week Tonight with Jon Oliver is calling the current state of affairs).

We’ve gone from a stupid thing a day to several stupid things over the course of the day and it’s exhausting and I feel that’s the tactic. Like that’s the government strategy. I also want to see what’s going on in the White House because they haven’t had a legit press conference in 200+ days and reporters said a mouse fell from the ceiling the other day to which I tweeted:

Wait. I meant The Departed called and wanted their ending back. https://t.co/OE8mg4FCUR

Botham Jean.

I do not know what “justice” is. I did read that the lady that filmed Amber Guyger in the hallway after the murder was fired from her job and the neighbor, Joshua Brown, that testified in court was recently murdered. Like over weekend; right after the sentence was issued.

Music.

Norah Jones and Mavis Staples made a song together.

This is currently my favorite thing on the internet.
