Late to this thread, but watched this yesterday. Twice in a row. Absolutely loved it. One of my favorite movies in a while.
One of my favorite scenes is between Jo Jo and Sam Rockwell’s character toward the end when they were detained by the Americans, watching him comfort the child before doing what he had to do to get him out of the detainment. An incredibly touching moment in a movie filled with so much absurdity that gave me constant belly laughs.
And the German version of David Bowie’s Heroes with the quote from Rainer Maria Rilke just before closing credits was a perfect way to end the film.

There was a nasty adenovirus going around late January, early February. Many in my office got it. Not CV as no one reported shortness of breath. Just fever and slight cough.
Doubt that’s what I had. I never had any respiratory or gastrointestinal issues, other than a noticeable shortness of breath, like the end of a long workout. And not sure if was the flu. I had the flu shot (yeah, I know you can still get the flu), and when I’ve had the flu before it’s kept me down a lot longer than this.
I really wish they had testing available so I could know for sure, in the interest of better information, for me and the general public. Whatever I had, it felt miserable and knocked me flat on my ass for a solid day. Not something I want to feel again anytime soon.
The question I have now is this—I’m about to hit 24 hours fever free. How long should I quarantine myself? The literature seems to be all over the place on the post-symptom contagion period.

Worst offseason ever.How you holding up? Don't leave us in the dark.
Much better. Fever is gone, energy is up, but still a bit worn out. If this was CV, it was definitely a milder case. Still need to hole myself up for a few days to be safe, maybe longer.
This is about to take a foothold in Austin. Let’s just get it over with.

Checking in. Had viral symptoms this morning and had to leave work. No fever (yet), but body ache, body chills, some shortness of breath, and significant fatigue. Still have an appetite, which I never have with the flu, but it’s kicking my ass nonetheless.
My doctor’s office at the Austin Diagnostic Clinic said they don’t have the coronavirus test available, so I’m going to ride this out with Vitamin C, zinc, lysine, Sambucus, and a ton of water.
I’m a pretty healthy 45-year-old, so I won’t be concerned. Until I’m dead.-

Sucks for me for personal selfish reasons, but I agree that it's the right call.

Not surprisingly, South by San Jose cancelled its shows.

Under the Dome is pretty good as well.
Was going to recommend this one. Also great character and world building as you say (although a much smaller world).

I'm sorry I'm late. I had to attend the reading of a will. I had to stay till the very end, and I found out I received nothing... broke my arm.

Interesting suggestion in the interview about a "too big to fail" bailout for SXSW.

I heard Mr. Murphy, you know, the shop teacher? . . . got his dick caught in a vacuum cleaner.

Steve Adler is term-limited, so yes, he won't get re-elected.

Look, I think the son should be thrown in prison where a couple guys get rapey on him for trying to kill an old dude. But at the same time, nothing good happens when you voluntarily choose to get closer to a rattlesnek, so shame on dad.

Watched Jo Jo Rabbit and just gave my review on the thread for that film.
@Js1 The Pacific is a great idea. I only caught the last couple episodes and was mesmerized, but never thought to go back and binge. Outstanding cast from what I recall.
