    Best and Worst of everything in 2019

    But i'm only going to talk about tv and movies.

    Worst tv for me in 2019 was The Watchmen, in that I was really looking forward too it, but turned out to be arty try hard crap in the end.

    Worst Movie was Dark Phoenix, not so much that it was bad, but that it was just so damn boring with a singular plot line, that it hurt to sit through until the end

    Best movie, Joker just tips out Star Wars 9
    And Mandalorian my favourite tv show of the year

    the worst is the same as its been the past 3 years, maybe the best is that a majority of people and at least half the politicians agree.
    the tv where i live still only gets one station, the good news is that the station it gets is p.b.s.
    (the still not so good news is that even that has anything interesting to me a small fraction of the time, the better news, except it isn't news, is that there's always more interesting things i can do on the computer, even when there isn't enough wifi to connect me to the net)
    the best thing is probably that the worst things don't last for ever. but that that there always are good things.
    and there are probably better answers to this then are currently occurring to me.

    Haven't seen it yet but I'm pretty sure Episode 9 is gonna disappoint. Happily I have very low expectations. And hopefully as well as likely The Mandalorian (which I haven't seen either yet) is gonna compensate for it somewhat :)
     
  8. I didn't really pay attention to anything from pop culture in 2019.

    Best movie was easily Booksmart. Best show was Pen15 which felt like the 1st show someone made with me specifically in mind. Can't wait for the next season.

    Bleached's Dont You Think You Had Enough gets my vote for best album of the year, tho musically I think the world has decided 2019 belonged to Lizzo.

    The Good:

    The death of Jeffrey Epstein,

    The Bad:

    The death of Grumpy Cat, Doris Day, Tim Conway, Peggy Lipton, James Ingram, Diahann Carroll, and Jim Fowler (Wild Kingdom)

    The Ugly:

    Trump attacked dead people including former senator John McCain long after his death, and the late representative John Dingell (D-Mich) and suggested he was “looking up” from hell — an attack that shocked his widow, Rep. Debbie Dingell


    Trump gave Turkey a green light to invade Syria and attack our Kurdish allies. The Kurds suffered 11,000 casualties in the fight against the Islamic State since 2014 saving the lives of countless US Servicemen.


    Trump said the Soviet Union was right to invade Afghanistan, and congratulated China on the 70th anniversary of the Communist takeover.

    i don't have the interest to take the time or spend the money on tv or movies.
    in my personal life, no major changes good or bad.

    the new u.i. on f.a. reduces by at least half my reasons for being there.
    house empeachment; heartwarming news, senate reaction, predictable dissapointment, but the fat lady has yet to sing.

    pinterest, art station, blender artists, behance, sites still useful sources for images that inspire my imagination.
    and i do have accounts on other furry sites. maybe its about time i start uploading to them.

    my interests remaining more about odd little houses, odd little trains, and landscapes of imaginary worlds in which they are the norm,
    still interest and inspire me more then individual characters, furry or otherwise.
    art station and behance are still beyond what i feel to be my level of professonalism, and even blender artists, well that's a mix,
    but doesn't seem to be a place likely to welcome a gray muzzle's random rambolings.
    may get around to stating a sketchpage on there, probably should.

    the year past is just past and probably just as well that it is.

    my thoughts, as i feel they should be, are more for next then previous.

    made a good number of animation bits that might be of some interest,
    wish there were easier places and ways to upload them to share.
    i know i'm behind the times, but also that i just don't have the resources to keep up.
