The English: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episo...omo]-[PS_IPLAYER~N~p0d5vxl7~P_TheEnglishS1E1] I enjoyed it.
Tulsa King (TV series with Sylvester Stallone). Just watched part 1 and enjoyed it. Could interest you, Druk1, as it has content about legal "mary jane" (marijuana).
Seen it, putting the muscle on dispensaries, I met an American guy last year who someone tried to rob of something somewhere, he showed me a pic of his friends gunshot wound in the side, missed his vital organs, some of the legal dispo owners are on 500k a year, the ones where things go out of the back door are on far more, that's where sylvesters character comes in.
You're young not to know that, Druk1; my "growing-up years" as a young twenty-something was the 7o's and everybody knew what "Mary Jane" was in those days. You like Abba and I like Steely Dan; two quite disimilar tastes, but you're an OK guy in my book of well-worn pages. Your reply has made me feel old, but nowhere near as old as my young kids make me feel sometimes with their "You used to know the dinosaurs, Daddy" Now, where's my slippers and pipe?
An imaginative photo, good compostion. It is amazing that over recent years in the U.S., what was once illegal in some states is now legal. It is also strange that in many countries grass is still illegal and probably will be for many years, and in places like Singapore, people used to be executed for posession. I don't know what Singapore/Malaysia/Brunei are like these days but the death penalty was enforced when I was over there many years ago. I don't smoke anything but I do smell it everywhere when walking in the streets near peoples' houses in towns in the UK - the smell is that strong. People often walk by me smoking grass and they don't seem to care these days, it is so different now compared to twenty-odd years ago.
Music (dub techno) : Deepchord's "Functional Designs" on Soma Records. Came here because of track 7 = "Pressure". Tracks can be selected by hovering the mouse over the photo, play then selecting the two arrows back and forth.

Excellent German movie "Im Westen nichts Neues" (All Quiet On The Western Front (2022)" English Subtitles
It's a very good film - just pick the right day - it's a bit of a downer even in English. The Last of Us is looking good:
1883 fantastic series,binge watched the 10 episodes over the last week,cowboys and injuns,gunfights,wagon trains in the Wild West,and purty women,yeehaw.
Episode two was even better https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_of_Us_(TV_series) Filmed in Canada (for Druk1)
Hiding in Plain Sight documentary highlights the mental health crisis among youth in America. Of course, it applies to all people in all countries. The documentary starts at 14:48 but the intro is good too.
