I think the new season of The Witcher just dropped; I haven't watched it yet but the first season was quite good IMO

I do powerlifting and BJJ, both of which are pretty tough on the knees. I’ve always had a baseline amount of pain and difficulty with my knees but just chalked that up to my shitty genetics.

Anyway I felt a pain above the norm that made it not possible to continue to train so I went to the doc for it. Turns out I had osgood-schlatter as a teen which resulted in a detached piece of bone just chilling under my patella tendon where the quad attaches to the knee on both sides. This rubs and obstructs as you might imagine and explains all kinds of issues I’ve had my whole life. Yesterday the doctor removed the piece in the left leg. Will post a pic. Gonna be out of the game till May between the time between surgeries and my recovery time.

Ry Manchu has a great list. Don’t forget to add Loki to the Disney+. Also, gonna recommend Atypical on Netflix. Not the kind of show I normally watch but we loved all 4 seasons of it.

Dark ... Netflix.

German, but English overdubbed audio - never even bothered me and does not distract at all. Amazing show, 3 seasons.

"Dark follows characters from the fictional German town of Winden to unravel a sinister time travel conspiracy which spans several generations. The series explores the existential implications of time, and its effect on human nature."

If you’re a Duchovny fan, Californication is fuckin excellent. Hot chicks, great jokes, boobs everywhere and it gets poignant as well. Dude is a tragically funny character and the show is fantastic. Pamela Adlon and Evan Handler are awesome as well.
