Anyone watching The Last of Us, the HBO remake of the Playstation video game?

 

I'm already a fan of the latter (a latecomer, first played both parts during the pandemic), so was naturally very curious about the series.

 

So far, based on the first two episodes, it's really very good

 

 

I never heard about the video game, but I finished the first three episodes of Season 1 this evening.  I agree this is really very good, and the twists and turns in the story line keep me interested.

This wise Rabbi:

Feelings.Emotions v the mind. Development and maturity.

A teacher. Worth listening to in my humble opinion.

Report about a high security prison in the US. There's a weightlifting contest with a twist!😂

I am glad I tend to be law- abiding. I would be claustrophobic in a place like this.

 

My thoughts right now go out also to thousands and thousands of people  ( millions?) across the globe who are actually innocent but are imprisoned. Not these guys in this film ( in German ) but anyway.

George Galloway at the Oxford Union criticising fighting for King and Country. His oratory is incredible. A truly impressive intellectual " rant."

I knew nothing about this episode in history. It turned up on my WhatsApp thingy. 

 

Have you researched your family tree re those who arrived there?
