I don't know about Trump stopping the plot, but he sure seems to have lost it!

I find Spacey's accent on the show to be endlessly entertaining, especially the way he says "whip": "Gggwhip".

He wears a tie roughly the length of a winter scarf and a hair piece that resembles a furry hat, if that counts?

I wish this dude would just not be in the news for a bit. Or in movies, or on TV.
I kind of wish he'd go away, is what I'm saying.

That's awful.
So many of us are fighting battles in secret. I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you have help yourself.

I agree. It's not selfishness, it's horrible, pitch-black despair.

Tragic, for him and for his loved ones. The mind can be such a dark place. I'm honestly so lucky to have access to affordable mental health care. I wish everyone did.

That does strike me as odd, though. I can't imagine seeing him in the street and not recognizing him. I mean, he may not be the most striking man on earth, but he's the King and he's on TV and in the print media all the time.

I know, right? Me neither.
Still an awesome day, though. Shame I was out of the country for it this year. Did you do anything fun?

Financial. Not even really on the part of the King, though it was considered somewhat shady for him to be building a house in such an impoverished region to begin with.
His local business partners were accused of some improper dealings, though. The King ended up selling the place for a symbolic sum.

Their proposal was something straight out of a movie too.
He hid roses and champagne in a "shed" (probably more like a small house, let's be real) on the royal estate and asked her to go ice skating with him on the lake, which is where he popped the question. So lovely, I thought.

Fresh Prince of Bel-Airlines?

Hehe thanks, but not all of us are.

There was a bit of a scandal relating to a vacation home in Mozambique a few years back. Other than that, he's mostly clean, nearest I know.
I'm not the hugest fan of the monarchy, but I like him. His late brother Friso, too.

Pretty sure that's supposed to be a Paul McCartney costume.

Aw, that warms my little Dutch heart.
Life hasn't always been kind to Wim-Lex, I'm glad he has a fun hobby.

This person is so scary to me. Like, whenever I see her being interviewed, I fear for whoever is talking to her. She always seems so angry and unhinged, I would barely be surprised if she pulled out a machete mid-conversation and just started stabbing away.

Not a baby boomer, but you can add Paul Ryan to that list.
I read an article yesterday about how he was a recipient of social security survivor's benefits after his father passed away when he was a boy. Those benefits paid for his college education.
A college education that helped him build a political career that's…

Ah, that makes sense, thanks. I haven't read the book, nor had I heard of the story before the show came on Netflix.

I've been following the debate around this show with some interest.
I watched the whole thing and it really is quite dark, disturbing and sad.
