People who liked the Jason Bourne movies would like Haywire on Netflix. But this time, a female.

Gainfully Employed?
How many of the wage slaves out there are going to realize that they kind of like not having to work?
Before this pandemic fiasco was upon us, the number of gainfully employed in the US population among adults was 60.8%. I suspect that after the fiasco, that number will shrink due to the above-mentioned reaction — some people will find being unemployed to their liking.
Amor Fati
Amor fati is a better and more interesting way to live.
Blade Runner
Could be the ultimate dystopia film. Blade Runner on Netflix, if you’ve never seen it.
Bale Out Nation
Bale out nation…by a government that is already deeply in debt. When will there be consequences? Don’t kid yourself — nothing is free.
Consequences for China
There should be real consequences for China. One idea I read was creating a consortium of countries, all of whom default on all their government bonds owned by China. That would be a little over one trillion for the US.
Malcolm X
Back in the 60s, white America was afraid of Malcolm X, but if you listen today to what he was actually saying then, most of what he asserted was not unreasonable.
Ancient Stoic Advice
Enjoy and concentrate on what you have rather than obsess over everything you might desire.
Toasty Potatoes
Small gourmet red potatoes. Wash and cut in half. In a big bowl, pour balsamic vinegar, apple cider vinegar, mustard, almond flour, curry powder, and stir. Put the halved potatoes in bowl and swirl with your hands (this is the fun part, a la playing in mud when you were a kid) until they are thoroughly soaked. Put potatoes smooth side down on a large baking pan with parchment paper. Sprinkle on rosemary and sesame seeds. Bake at 425 degrees for 35 minutes. Eat some hot that day but put the rest in a paper towel lined container and put in frig. Eat the rest cold for the rest of the week. Tart taste with a lingering curry aftertaste and toasty from the sesame seeds and the almond flour.
