I bought a running watch. Only had it for one day, but at least last night I saw my heart rate was 49 bpm before going to bed. So that's pretty good!

But today I did a treadmill run (winter has come) and it seems to have totally spazzed out. Thought my average heartrate was 180 bpm. I was running for 35 minutes so that is pretty much impossible unless I am a freak of nature, but I can't explain it with standard tracking problems like cadence lock.


Oh well. Will try again on Thursday. Maybe I'll be getting a chest strap heartrate monitor for Christmas.

Ok so as far as I can tell, I am indeed a freak of nature.

I should watch it again, it's been a long time. 

I thought it was cool seeing all the japanese mythos stuff that I learned from botw.

I've ended up getting the entire "Dollars" trilogy/"the man with no name trilogy".  

A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Not usually the kind of movies I watch. But I've heard good things.

I watched Princess Mononoke for the first time.

Was pretty good, better than I expected. Monkeys were super creepy.

that was a fun video.   

i have to say i absolutely love and prefer practical effects more than CGI.   it's been decades of improvements now and i still think they all come out looking like cartoons.   there's just no imitation for reality.

Been rewatching Kipo and the age of the wonder beasts.


There is a certain category of animated shows that I love so much.

Avatar the last airbender
Gravity Falls
She-ra
Amphibia
The Owl House

All of these have more serious over arching story lines, that still have lots of comical moments.

Paramount is offering more, but Netflix's offer is just for WB.  If WBD thought they could get more money for Discovery, they could go elsewhere.

Aw i didn't realize netflix was only buying 90%.

Wonder how this goes. From a pure shareholder perspective, how could wb defend netflix as a better bid?
