Iron Fist

Watching Iron Fist on NetFlix. Pretty disappointed with how they treat his relationship with the homeless guy.

“Piss in your shoes.”

“People must think we’re alike.”

Lost opportunity to honor what he said, delve. “Where did you learn that? Who did you hear that from?”

And then that hunter-gatherer we-never-should-have-started-farming BS. Please.

Oh, right, and then some pop Buddhism. EYE. ROLL.

“My brother’s a very… black-and-white kinda guy.”

OH GREAT THIS MEANS WE GET TO DEAL WITH HER DITHERING THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SERIES DOESNT IT?

Om mane padme om??? Seriously???

“I can’t be involved in this.”

YOU ALREADY ARE HONEY

Jiminy crickets.

On the climate and recent news

Re our climate. I guess the question now is: how much worse do we make it? I guess we’ll have to spend the next few generations struggling against folks* with a tendency to say “all these restrictions are terrible and the climate’s still bad, so it’s not doing any good!”

*i.e., idiots.
