Can you get Peacock? I believe it's NBC's streaming channel. It's carrying the games.

We spent years trying to get access to tv via antenna and we live right downtown in a big city. Finally figured it out and (even though I have no idea how it works) hubby can record all kinds of local channels and we can get the news. I dont watch local shows without recording because I cannot stand the commercials. Even the local news is hard to watch. So much easier to just check what is written online without commercials.

My rave for today is about what happened yesterday. Went to a new vet (had only gone once before) and had a fantastic experience. Vet spent time talking to me and I didn't feel like she was just trying to rush me out the door. Everyone was very kind to my cat and seemed to care about why he was there (aggression towards other cat in house). They didn't try to upsell me a bunch of stuff and even saved me another trip to the vet by having the prescription delivered to the house instead of making me go pick it up in a few days.
The state mask mandate for schools was lifted effective the end of the month. The Board of Health said they would remove the City mandate when this happens but I don't trust them. They have changed the metrics for lifting it at least 6 times. One idea was keep it in place "in case we get another variant". Yeah, we could get another variant - in 10 years, or 50, or 100.
Anyways, at least there is growing momentum to repeal these mandates. I see two hurdles - first the City mandate, and then even if that is repealed the Library Director could put her own mandate in place. Aluta continua.
A local sportscaster was interviewed on a radio show I listen to. He talked about the extreme controls on any footage from the Olympics. It’s not just NBC’s strictures, it is International Olympic committee rules. Local news can’t even show a brief clip. If they have a local athlete doing well at Olympics, they may not show video of their hometown hero. They can only show a still photo.
What a crock of shtz. But as a Capitalist I should support their contractual agreements and not watch illegal clips on YouTube, but I dont.
This guy postulated international Olympic committee was shooting itself in the foot because the Olympics are not being promoted appropriately through video (It is a visual activity, one with movement so it can only be adequately represented in video) therefore their audience is shrinking and people don’t pay attention.
I think he’s right.
I don't see masks being worn much here anymore so it's sort of a non-issue. I have started thinking of them like hats - if you want to wear one, do so. Even still I wear one when shopping out of respect to the store personnel who have to wear them all day.mask mandate
