Bridgerton Season 3, It’s Going To Be Good
OK, I am watching Bridgerton season 3. I like the show because it shows what a progressive view of Regency England could look like with inclusion, body positivity, and equality. I like this take on alternate history because it makes you think a little.
Women have a heavy influence in this world of patriarchy but still have to live within the patriarchal rules where they need a man and his money. But if you ask me, they do just fine on their own.
This season it’s Penelope and Colin who take front and center. This is a character-driven show and I like that. There are lots of stories going on and I think that’s what makes it fun and interesting. This season will be in two parts which is not a bad way to do TV.
Mindless Diversions, Escape Reality
The world in which we live is tough and sometimes hard to deal with. I have been a news junkie throughout my life and I have come to the conclusion we all need some mindless diversions to help us make it through our daily grind. I would never say bury your head in the sand but you know there is only so much reality any of us can stand.
We all need to get away from it all and find something recreational. So no matter how you find your diversions may it be good, mentally healthy, and most importantly fun.

I Am Team Jesus But I Cuss Some Too
I don’t have a problem with profanity if it’s artistic and emotional. Swear words need to have a purpose. I didn’t used to cuss but as I have gotten older I have said what the Hell, let’s express myself. It’s a part of not trying to please everyone all the time. Righteous anger is righteous.
To me, the way Christians treat others sometimes is way more profane than any cuss word could be.
