Christoph Waltz’s Closet Picks YouTube video by CRITERION

Christoph did his Criterion Closet Picks. I've been waiting for this!

This is great to see after having slept 10 hours today. (Haven't done that since I was a kid.) (Probably due to depression and what feels like the weight of the world.)

I'm getting tired of being alive again.
There's been a lot of situations that have happened lately, that really just... I just don't want to do it anymore, most days.

No wonder my brother is a genius, and my other brother can look at something and fix it.
I only wish I had garnered half the intelligence my father had. I suppose what I lack in practical intelligence I make up for in emotional intelligence or something.

My father truly was the smartest man I've come to know. I'd put him up against Einstein, Wittgenstein, William Sidis, etc.
The dumbest thing he ever did was turn down a six figure job.
He knew every subject. I have been reflecting a lot on the wasted potential due to mental & socioeconomic factors.

The only time I root for the US is during the Olympics.
The country may be going to shit, but we are taking the damn Gold.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Whenever I’m feeling down about my height, I just remember all of the top male Olympic Gymnasts are 5’4 to 5’6. 🙂

Ah well. I’ve read enough about the Great Depression and stuff. We’ll make it through.
I don’t care anymore. I’m resigned. I just take it day by day.

Entering America illegally is a misdemeanor.
Abusing children is a felony. We got the wrong folks in cages.

Don't know who this quote is from, but man...

"I was only following orders" wasn't an acceptable excuse at the Nuremberg trials & won't work now.

I've gotten laid off from my job 3 times in 3 months, a week long each.
That's how shit the economy is now.

Thank you. Glad to hear it. It’s been ok here, just a storm from cold fronts. January tends to be the worst for the winter in the states. We haven’t had something like this in years.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Weathering a sizeable snowstorm this weekend.
If you are, too - may you be safe!
It is nice to be huddled in while the world is coated in a white anew, but nonetheless, I am ready for the Spring.
