Hell yes.

That reminds me of an article I saw yesterday after the CPI, Consumer Price Index, (inflation #s), for June were announced yesterday morning. They showed that inflation is continuing to trend downward, which initially, I thought was good. But apparently in this case "good" is a polite way of saying "weak":

I think Shirley we are at a different stage of life where I’m ok with my stocks/401k taking a hit as long as it makes the current day to day easier.
But I love a good bad movie.
Goonies is a good bad movie.
Tremors is a good bad movie.
Big is a good bad movie.

Re: Finding New Shit on TV
Goonies and Big are GREAT movies
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

I don't necessarily agree with the conclusions of the author I quoted. I'm very happy to see inflation coming down. I was just adding to the bad is good, good is bad examples.
If I'm not mistaken, you're ~ in your early 40s. That puts you in the acquisition phase of money management. As someone who no longer collects a salary or wage to add to my savings, I've entered the preservation of capital phase, so there's no doubt our sequence of risk diverges, widely. However, as a trader who sells options on ~ half of my savings/investments, I have the luxury of viewing the ups and downs, volatility of the market, as a good thing. The more change, generally, the better.
And for the other half, the buy and hold portion of my investments, downturns are a buying opportunity, as long as the downturn doesn't exceed ~ 4 years. (Which is the amount of living expenses I try to keep in cash/T-Bills all the time.) Most downturns are much less than 4 years, especially in the period after the great recession ~ 2008-'09. Since then downturns are brief, V-shaped, (on a stock chart) occurrences, and if they threaten to last longer, the government has a policy for it, which can be described as "here's money, keep buying, everybody"... Until it isn't.

Dow had a new high. Imterest rates expected to be cut.
Re: Finding New Shit on TV
Instead of the RNC, I watched Oppenheimer last night. I normally avoid 3 hour movies but this was pretty good. Had to turn the subwoofer waaaayyyyy down.

Re: Finding New Shit on TV
I watched music on YouTube. Very relaxing
Re: Finding New Shit on TV
Finished Silo last night.
Pretty good!
Some weird pacing, but (without spoilers whatsoever) it's a fun mystery box show that could have been sparked by the question, "What if we made an entire world based on the Dharma Initiative from Lost, but scratch the polar bears and other supernatural shit?"

This Sunday Aug 25 on the Smithsonian Channel. "How Did They Build That?"
I asked them if I could cuss on British TV. They laughed and said it airs after 9:00 PM on BBC so "sure". But they cut my "10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag" comment anyway. And decided not to interview me on site for the show. My business partner has a much more congenial personality anyway.
Oklahoma Contemporary ( Folding Light) is a cool building, and a great piece of architecture. And Rand is an underappreciated genius.

Rumor has it they may do an episode on the Peterson Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, as well. The technical issues on that project were much greater. I will describe the movement of the rigid frame slip joints in a seismic event as, "it looks like two pieces of pipe fucking". Maybe THAT will get me on BBC.

I saw the worst minds of my generation empowered by madness, bloated farcical naked,

I am reading the Three Body Problem series right now, and it is very difficult reading but MILES richer and more fun than the Netflix adaptation. It makes sense to me, now, why the series was considered unfilmable. The show did as good of a job as is reasonably possible, but it’s not close.
