8:10 am
penquis
good morning all....
8:10 am
BzznBea
I started watching the JD series.
8:11 am
penquis
JD series?
8:11 am
hokie carla
what does that stand for?
8:12 am
hokie carla
what's it on?
8:12 am
penquis
oh...i do watch bit of true crime....
8:12 am
BzznBea
One of the true crime FB groups I'm in calls it JD, because FB will delete anything that has his name.
8:12 am
BzznBea
It's on Netflix
8:12 am
hokie carla
i see
8:13 am
hokie carla
it's possible I have watched it
8:13 am
BzznBea
I think it just came out.
8:13 am
MollyL
I would never have guessed there are so many true crime freaks here.
8:13 am
sukee
where do you watch it
8:14 am
mael
I have less than zero interest in serial killers, they just creep me out. My FIL was trying to tell me about the show and I had to shut him down. No, I don't want to know what he did to his poor victims, thanks
8:14 am
hokie carla
well, then maybe not. but I've seen enough on him I don't need to watch. super horrible story.
8:14 am
mael
I get the fascination, it's just not for me
8:14 am
MollyL
I had no idea Facebook deletes certain things.
8:14 am
BzznBea
sukee, it's on netflix.
8:15 am
MollyL
I would not sleep at night if I got into that stuff.
8:15 am
BzznBea
They also put you in timeout for posting certain things.
8:15 am
MollyL
Really? Wow, censorship on Facebook.
8:15 am
sukee
ah, I don't have Netflix right now. I alternated with Disney. I will probably get it around the time the Crown comes back.
8:16 am
BzznBea
That's how I go to sleep at night. Listening to true crime podcasts.
8:16 am
penquis
for a while during the pandemic, I listened to a lot of Criminal broadcasts....
8:17 am
penquis
sorry...meant podcasts....
8:17 am
MollyL
How cheery
8:18 am
penquis
it was very interesting.....some of the crimes were small, ordinary things and some were more serious....
8:18 am
penquis
no blood and guts....just a different slant on looking at criminals....
8:19 am
hokie carla
I listen to a lot of missing people ones, then I worry about my kids disappearing.
8:19 am
penquis
then you should find something else to listen to..
8:19 am
hokie carla
pen, is that the one with Phoebe from NC public radio? I forgot about it. when I got a new phone my podcast app didn't keep anything so I forgot about a bunch I listened to.
8:20 am
penquis
it is Phoebe, I think....
8:20 am
penquis
she has a somewhat annoying voice, but you get used to it....
8:21 am
penquis
the stories are very diverse....
8:21 am
hokie carla
yeah, I agree. def not a native NC in my opinion.
8:21 am
MollyL
Oh Carla must have been all wrapped up in the Gabby Petito thing.
8:21 am
BzznBea
Who wasn't.
8:22 am
hokie carla
I actually wasn't really
8:24 am
MollyL
Very sad story. And a real shout out to women in abusive relationships.
8:25 am
hokie carla
yeah, it was pretty obvious what happened there
8:31 am
hokie carla
well, with 16 left I finally got HOET.

8:32 am

8:32 am
BzznBea
He didn't do it.
8:32 am
jeepers
I also just finished Suspect another podcast about someone in prison and the crime pretty good
9:14 am
penquis
hi hursh....how are you doing today?
9:15 am
hurshy
better, thanks.
9:15 am
penquis
good to hear...
9:15 am
hurshy
i had 4 days of pretty unpleasant, today i don't seem to have the general achiness anymore
9:16 am

i have heard that four or five days are the worst...
9:16 am

I'm sorry you have been ill.

9:38 am
hurshy
ah yes, the dreaded 14
9:38 am
hurshy
that is where i am now also
9:58 am
MollyL
Oh great. Another crappy Superbowl halftime.
10:08 am
hurshy
why, who is performing?
10:10 am
MollyL
Rhianna. I am not a fan.
10:11 am
hurshy
ah, but many people are. :)
10:13 am
MollyL
Well, in 2019 she turned down an offer to sing at the Superbowl. I guess she's gotten over her issues or something. Although I am pretty sure police brutality and racial inequality are still going on.
10:14 am
hurshy
perhaps she will find a way to work a protest into her show
10:14 am
origami
What does football have to do with police brutality?
10:15 am
MollyL
This is what she said about the 2019 offer. "I couldn't dare do that. For what?" Rihanna said to Vogue in 2019. "Who gains from that? Not my people. I just couldn't be a sellout. I couldn't be an enabler. There's things within that organization that I do not agree with at all, and I was not about to go and be of service to them in any way."
10:15 am
hurshy
a large proportion of football players are minorities ... the same is certainly not true of the "owners"
10:15 am
MollyL
And yes Origami, good question.
10:17 am
hurshy
well molly, then, it sounds like it's not about police brutality - she did not mention that in what you quoted
10:17 am
hurshy
it's about things in the NFL
10:17 am
hurshy
and if she has thought of a way to be subversive, i could see how she might change her mind about that
10:20 am
MollyL
Rhianna stated that she turned down the offer due to her "solidarity" with Colin Kaepernick, an NFL quarterback who regularly kneels during the national anthem to protest police brutality and racial inequality.
10:23 am
hurshy
perhaps she spoke with him since and he encouraged her to do it and make her show a protest in some way
10:25 am
MollyL
Yes Hurshy, I'm sure that is exactly what happened.
