The quote 'Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity' comes to mind when thinking about all this. But hopefully these actions shine a light on better alternatives such as tildes and the like.

I really like diving deep into the world of people who care so much about what they do, especially when it borders on obsession. Even as a non-foodie myself, the painstaking care and attention they present to the preparation, cooking and presentation is fascinating. All with a sprinkle of humor here and there with some excellent acting performances too. I wish this season they spent more time on the them making the menu and designing the restaurant layout, but nonetheless was entertaining.
My favorite episode was...
Forks. Richie's skepticism and eventual transformation as he started to understand why everyone cared so much was just *chef's kiss*. Afterwards, him suiting up and telling everyone 'oh yea, I wear suits now' was just awesome.
Been enjoying a few shows dropping new episodes lately such as...
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia : New season dropped a few weeks back and still as solid as ever with the gang's wacky shenanigans.
Platonic : A comedy about 2 platonic friends (Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen) that reconnect later in life. So far, pretty unique situations and entertaining. Been digging this one a lot.
Hiajck : Takes place during an airplane hijack and is pretty intriguing, generally an edge of your seat watch. Enjoying Idris Elba as always, but curious to how they will keep the suspense for a full season of episodes. So far so good though.
The Idol : A drama about a fictional pop star returning into the spotlight after a hectic year away. Only watched a few out of all released so far, but seems pretty raw/real look into the industry that it can be kind of hard to watch. Great performances though and good singing, they made a pretty catchy song for the show too.
The Righteous Gemstones : Pretty okay so far. Definitely enjoyed the previous 2 seasons a lot more, but still has all the over the top evangelical funniness you'd expect.
The Witcher : First half of the newest season dropped and as someone who hasn't played the games, I still generally enjoy the high fantasy show. Geralt is as charming and brooding as ever. Wish they went into more details about the recently discovered reasons for the antagonists though.
Star Trek Strange New Worlds : Just some classic Star Trek adventures. Each episode has been pretty unique from the others of the season, so that has been interesting.
