Now Liesl and I are watching the real Ghost in the Shell.
Define “real”
The original, not a remake. The one that used to be the only one.
The first movie was only so-so. It's the follow on ones and the series that were really good I think.
Of Ghost in the Shell? There were sequels?

Just watched several episodes of Kara and Nate.

Actually, the series, Stand Alone Complex is honestly the best iteration of the show.
The original movie is super good, but S.A.C. gets so much more time to tell a story in the world.

For you aficionados I assume the GitS remake with Scarlett Johansson was an abomination of biblical proportions.

I don’t think so. It was a horrible example of whitewashing. But over all, I thought the story fit the GitS world.

Since they are unable to have the annual desert rock festival, they are doing a live stream featuring past live performances from LOTS of bands.

@black3dynamite he really did a great job.
-
@black3dynamite would have carried more weight had be not been lying about the out of state protestors. He's since backtracked and admitted that that was false. He claimed that 100% of arrests were out of staters. Now he's admitted they were nearly all Minnesotans.
It's locals angry about the unchecked police and racism, and not "foreign influences" using the opportunity to stir up trouble like they've been trying to pretend. And they used this data to close the state borders (via the highways).

Yeah, I finished reading about that on Forbes website.
