    Nevermind, trains are bullshit now

    I miss the days when they would still let you take a bottle of wine to drink on the train.

    Wait, they don't let you bring alcohol on trains where you're from? Then how do you do train drinking?!

    They prefer to sell it themselves. In plastic cups.

    It sounds like they want to turn the French high speed train system into the German high speed train system.

    And I don't know how both systems would run together in the same rail system.

    Sounds like they're gonna try and squeeze some extra trains into gaps on the timetables, I guess you can juggle it as long as your coordination is impeccable and nothing goes wrong.
    ... I'm fairly skeptical tbh.

    Yeah, the no reservations part and having to stay out of the way of the long distance high speed TGVs seems complicated

    I've noticed some anime detective shows getting mentioned and I wanted to toss in one of my personal favs, Neuro. A demon bird from hell who eats mysterious comes to earth to find the best food. Very much not the most compassionate but still enjoyable.

    I watched Only Murders in the Building a few months ago and gosh that show was so much better than I was expecting/fearing

    I love Steve Martin/Martin Short to death but I was really worried it was going to be this very cozy, old-people-safe, closed-off-from-reality thing like those little paperback mystery novels about an old lady's cats who solve crime (this is real btw).

    my second thought was that, if it wasn't some dotty old person fare, it would just be a very good but very effervescent super absurd light comedy a la Three Amigos, something you have a nice chuckle at and then move on with your life

    instead, it kind of hit me where I live? it's still very funny and absurd, and it is about old people but it feels like it's about them in the present day and having to interact with the complexities of the world, and sometimes this went to places that felt fairly raw and real and made me feel stuff about things, while also having door slamming and farce and silliness

    also the theme song rules.

    Only Murders works as a show that has characters of wildly different ages because it uses that to flavor everything rather than trying to make some larger point that THIS generation is like THIS and THAT generation is like THAT.

    Also, Nathan Lane is there and they let him fuckin' cook

    I'm gonna eat leftover pizza, have a couple beers and maybe watch a movie. Thirty eighth Valentine's day while single, why break the streak?
    I'm so lonely.
