TV Review: The Days (Netflix)

 This past week, I completed a Japanese series (8 episodes) entitled The Days....which covers the Fukushima disaster. Four observations:

First, first class production and I ready recommend viewing it.  

Second, you come to the end with a really harsh critical view of the Japanese government officials, and in some cases....there are various 'bosses' who were readily incompetent.  

Third, I think around about the third complete day of rescue operations....with no time off and no sleep....they were making a fair amount of mistakes and respect outside of the emergency center was dropping  hour by hour.

Fourth, Netflix paid a pretty hefty sum to produce this, and it is a quality production.

Three Observations

 1.  PTTS: Post Traumatic Twitter Syndrome.

What you get after Elon buys Twitter, and you think it's the end of the world.

2.  Just odd....Senator Dick Durban has tested positive for Covid (again)....third time in 12 months...dispute being double-bostered for Covid.  Has to beg....who the hell is he hanging around with?

3.  Some group of research folks at Oregon State University were on a 'mission' to gather up data via a online questionnaire....about undergraduates in computer science and engineering fields of the university.

So after they went the results of the questionnaire.....things fell apart, as students....well....got extremely cynical and started mocking the responses in this 'woke' survey.

What cam back?  Well....'hate-speech'.

I sat and pondered upon....having worked around the computer field and knowing my brother (the electrical engineer).  Just in general.....they can be extremely sarcastic, and just not take your serious subject very serious.  The research folks picking the wrong crowd to get feedback on woke stuff?  Yeah.

Is There a Turtle-Race Existing For Joe Biden To Be Impeached?

 One almost gets the impression that various groups have some type of schedule going on....about when to 'dump' Joe Biden and move out into a different landscape.  Problems?  Well....Joe is collecting campaign funds presently....ton of money, and if you dumped him presently...he might not share the money with the new person.

The anticipated 'filler'?  If you really pay attention....the one-and-only is Governor Newsom of California.  

The only scenario to make this work?  Have Senator Feinstein retire 'suddenly'....bring VP Harris up for the empty Senate seat....allow Joe Biden to bring in Newsom as the new VP....then allow the impeachment process to work. 

Timing is critical....to make this all work, and avoid the impeachment being a big deal in 2024's election.  All of this has to occur before the end of 2023.
