@OchmennoPodcast FYI @ChrisO_wiki is in the fedi and posts interesting stuff on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, though he posts a little less frequently on here than in other platforms. Go give him a follow, it's worth it

@OchmennoPodcast And unfortunately the Bond franchise from now on down the drain as I heard it was bought by Bezos.....

@OchmennoPodcast Prior to the release of "Spectre," two members of LoadingReadyRun did a podcast where they re-watched *every* James Bond film made up to that point. About 27 minutes Into their review for Moonraker, Graham Stark and Matt Wiggins said Drax reminded them both of the cartoon character Droopy Dog. And then Graham starts uttering Drax's lines in Droopy's voice. And you can never see Drax the same way again. It's hilarious. https://youtu.be/E1GMboQj58s

@OchmennoPodcast It's completely unrealistic. Elon doesn't have such a stylish beard.

@OchmennoPodcast I've read that book. It starts when Bond is brought in to expose how the villain's unlikely success at games is down to cheating.

@OchmennoPodcast wonder what Fleming would've said about the idea of having Drax run the US for a more realistic approach.

@OchmennoPodcast The actual fiction in the book was the idea that there's some kind of secret organization that has our best interest in their hearts, answers to the government, and is able to stop said industrialist by dispatching a single highly-qualified field agent, augmented by cutting-edge technology funded from the state's budget.
