Also Juggernaut Pinot Noir at HEB is like $18 and slams.
+1 on Juggernaut
Pessimist is another great value -
We drink a lot of Rhône blends in the $25 and under price range.
St. Cosme Cote du Rhône - $18.99

Bonpas Ventoux Grande Réserve Des Challières - $18.95

Famille Perrin Nature (organic) - $12.99

We’re fond of Grenache and GSM blends, so that’s our go-to everyday wine. It helps when Central Market does their 20% off sale and we stock up.
I also think the Orin Swift Locations wines are generally pretty good in that same price range, although their bottles annoy me because they don’t fit easily in our wine fridge.-

Perhaps this season is a slow burn but I’m loving it.

I wanted Mark to follow Gemma out the door, but I also realized their combined escape would make it difficult to have an interesting plot for season 3, which I hope we are getting. So from a storytelling standpoint, I thought the ending was great.
Gemma seems to be free from her torture and I think innie Mark S and Helly can fight their own fight for a while longer.
There is a possible way for a happy ending that doesn’t involve “killing” the innies. They could have their outies report to the birthing cottage for a few hours each week and let their innies hang out in a place that’s much better than the Lumon severed floor. Or possibly get Ms. Cover to help them develop an entirely new retreat for the innies.
The minor issue here is that outie Helena is currently a villain, so they would need her to be permanently switched to innie Helly or somehow change her outie’s character arc to be more sympathetic. -
I wondered about the Helly / Helena situation at the end. It seemed like Helly the entire episode until that moment, but her sudden presence in the hallway felt like a desperate attempt by Helena to manipulate Mark.
I suppose they have the ability to flip her switch between innie and outie at any given moment, kind of a reverse OTC. So in the middle of the chaos, when Dylan was standing up to Milchick, they could’ve switched her back to Helena to try to salvage the situation. -
Mr. Drummond’s death was fantastic.

That was intense. What an episode of television.

Had to pronounce people dead during residency. Had a few really bad ones. Don’t miss that.
I can’t ever remember seeing a traumatic death outside of a medical situation.-

I see we’ve reached “having fewer choices and they’re more expensive is good, actually” levels of cope.
The mental gymnastics by Trump supporters these last couple of months are quite remarkable.-

Is the shipping from Napa cost prohibitive? I got some extra allocations that I am looking to shed next year if you are interested.
It’s not the shipping. It’s the subpar American wine that’s the problem.-

Trump threatens 200% tariff on European alcohol as trade war escalates
https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/business/alcohol-tariffs-eu-trump-trade-war
I just bought a bottle of Scotch this past weekend. Guess I'll sip it slowly. There are plenty of good wines from here, but I do love a good Rioja or Chianti. -
https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/climate/trump-ev-power-plant-rollbacks/index.html
The Environmental Protection Agency announced it will undo rules that would have pushed power plants and carmakers toward cleaner forms of energy. It also intends to roll back rules on soot, mercury and coal ash pollution, as well as the so-called “good neighbor rule” that regulates downwind air pollution, and eliminate its programs overseeing environmental justice and diversity.
Significantly, Trump’s EPA is also preparing to reconsider and strike down a consequential scientific finding on the dangers of climate pollution that has served as the basis behind federal regulations to curb them. Dismissing the precedent would strip the EPA’s authority to manage the pollution that causes global warming.“The Trump administration will end the Biden administration’s irrational, quasi-religious policies on climate change that imposed endless sacrifices on our citizens,” Energy Sec. Chris Wright said at CERAWeek on Monday.
The Trump administration “will treat climate change for what it is — a global physical phenomenon that is a side effect of building the modern world,” he said.-

It's fake
Not that this kind of shit is beneath those two dipshits
Well okay, my comment still applies to these 2 dildos standing in front of a Tesla on the White House lawn. -
This is so fucking pathetic. The POTUS trying to help his billionaire buddy save a falling stock price. So embarrassing to be an American these days.-

Still fully on board here. With a strong ending, I'd even say season 2 > season 1.
Same here. My only minor complaint is that we had 2 episodes in a row that didn’t include Dylan, Irv, Helly, etc. Other than that, I’m really enjoying season 2.-

Maroon team dude is way too intense and if going to have an absurd blow up at some point.
They finished 2nd on their half and he was super pissed at the finish line. I feel sorry for his wife if she has a slip up at some point. -

It seems like maybe Harris would’ve been better for the economy. Like perhaps, just maybe a guess here, but the American economy is naturally strong as long as we don’t elect a president who picks a trade war with every American ally. I’m not an economist though.
Also, I look forward to $20 eggs.

Via Chloe
Greg didn't meet any of the Ratliffes until the boat.
Well yeah, but he could be scoping out tourists from afar and using Chloe to lure in potential targets, whether she is part of his scheme or merely an unsuspecting pawn. He’s supposedly wealthy with a house overlooking the ocean and a huge boat and an attractive French girlfriend, yet he spends a lot of time hanging out at the resort and allowing random annoying Americans to mooch off of him. Something doesn’t add up.
Maybe it’s nothing. Not every character in the first 2 seasons was integral to the murder plot. Some of them are just there for drama.

Did the Ratliff family end up on Greg’s boat merely due to Saxon having an interest in Chloe, or is it possible that Greg is still swindling people and sees them as a potential target? You would think he is pretty well set with Tanya’s money, but maybe he’s burned through a lot of it. The scene where Greg approached Timothy Ratliff at the bar made it look like he had an agenda, and I wonder if Chloe is helping him draw these people in.

It would be hard to argue with anything he said. We are traitors and assholes and we have a jester drunk on ketamine who is tasked with dismantling our country.
Really weird to think back on US History classes and every 4th of July and family trips to Washington DC and the national anthem at countless sporting events and the immense national pride post 9/11 and how I feel each time I watch Band of Brothers, and now realize that I might be alive to watch it all crumble because 82 million ignorant misinformed selfish racist gullible dickheads voted for a fat man with a shitty spray tan and a comb over. Depressing doesn’t even begin to describe it.-

Well we did end up going for 4 nights last week and it was great. Don’t ask me about activities because we didn’t do shit. Stayed at Ma’xanab, laid on the beach, read some books, ordered food service at the beach, slept on our beach bed, drank carajillos, drank rosé, banged in the room a bunch, ate expensive dinners that were so tasty, and made sure our night caps had night caps. The weather was amazing and we lived like lazy kings. Would do again.

I really try to not be a hateful person. And in this case I continue to fail miserably. It is my failing and I need to stop failing.
But right now my mind wants to see this dipshit get kicked out of the Whitehouse, Tesla, Space X, StarLink and everywhere else, in the loudest way possible.
Meh. If he gets Luigi’ed tomorrow I’ll drink 2 nice bottles of champagne.-

Yeah I vaguely remember that time Hillary kept stacks of classified documents in her bathroom and showed them off to dinner guests. That was Hillary, right?
