Time passes...

The lockdown continues. (Though today I walked out to Hillcrest Park just to get out of the house.)

I finished re-watching the first season of Sailor Moon.  What a powerful finale! The Sailor Scouts found out that in the past Sailor Moon's mother, Queen Serenity of the Moon, had been in a fight with destructive Queen Beryl so she'd sacrificed her own life to give all their spirits new lives in today's world. Then they all went to the Negaverse entrance near the North Pole or somewhere, and all the other Sailor Scouts sacrificed their lives protecting Sailor Moon, then Queen Beryl ordered the brainwashed Tuxedo Mask to kill Sailor Moon, but her Star Locket brought back his memories and he ended up sacrificing his life to save her, then Sailor Moon had her final confrontation with Queen Beryl and felt the spirits of the dead Sailor Scouts and combined forces with them and managed to destroy Queen Beryl and save the earth, sacrificing her own life to do so.... Then there was some "transmigration" by which all of them went back to the lives they had before finding out their superhero destinies, with only their cat mentors remembering what had happened--until the next season...

I've started watching the first season of One Piece again, this time the dubbed version for variety's sake.  Captain Buggy rocks! (Even if he does owe a little something to the Joker...) Just saw a great episode involving a dog still guarding his late master's pet food store.

Biden supporters are exasperating!  If Sanders continues to campaign, either Doddering Joe will manage to survive without being "undermined," or he won't.  If he does, they have nothing to worry about. But if he can't make it through a full primary campaign without being undermined, he's the wrong choice for the nomination. (One purpose of a primary campaign is to show who's the wrong choice, right?) Then he's the one they should be pressuring to drop out instead of Sanders.  In demanding that the campaign be cut short, they're actually showing how little faith they have in his "electability."

Beyond fascinating! I had no idea that such a programme could be so profound.
