When people overhype stuff, I know watching it with high expectations will ruin it for me. I prefer for the hype to go away, me to forget everything and go in with a clean mental slate and no expectations. I enjoy what I'm watching much more.

Folks overhyped films before and I didn't enjoy it. I waited 10 years to watch Titanic and was pleasantly surprised. Weird? Sure, but it works for me.

I don't share your confidence of their confidence. Weakening the US economically, isolating it from allies, destroying herd immunity and public health, bringing back formerly extirpated/eradicated diseases and pests.

The rich and powerful are not protected from this. The opposite of win-win is not win-lose, its lose lose.

I got into home distilling during the pandemic. Fun, and damn fine sipping. Done gin, whiskey and vodka I'm proud of. My rum was a failure, but only in the sense that it tasted like whiskey. The congeners for rum are too hard for my setup. Aged in an oak barrel and everything.

I made a an excellent coffee liqueur with my magicks, home roasted beans used in a cold booze-pressed espresso and a vanilla bean then aged on oak and applewood.

It was the inspiration for my username - you can "correct" any coffee based drink with quality booze. Yum.
