1. Completely understand why people weren't that crazy about S5 The Wire. Very odd season. At times insanely hilarious, at others deeply disturbing and difficult to watch. Also it lacks some of the emotional impact that S4 had.
( Spoilers for S5 - the good, bad, and ugly...so to speak. )
Yay, the debt ceiling got raised and they passed the bill. (Really there was no other choice. If we defaulted, the global economy would have been flushed down the proverbial toilet and we'd have really seen a return to the Great Depression. Was it great? NO. But it is what it is. The left and the right are basically screaming at each other at the moment. Yeah, I know, what else is new? They've been doing that for 20 years and counting. Hence the reason I tend to ignore politics nowadays. Just not worth raising the blood-pressure over. Can't do anything about the idiotic politicians anyhow.) At least I can stop worrying about that now, not that I was - to be honest?
I was successfully ignoring it.
