I Have Lost People I Love From Cancer

I've been watching Black Mirror for the past few days. As expected, I've found an episode that I couldn't get through. I suppose my wife's death is too recent. I even had to skip an episode of Breaking Bad last week. There are songs that I can't listen to. Almost everything brings back bad memories.

Both very amazing shows, especially Breaking Bad. Sorry to hear for you lost, truly am. Best wishes.

@ImRileyTheDog Thank you! The Black Mirror episode was Be Right Back, part of season 2. I'd give anything to have a way to reconnect with her again, even if only once.

@Lincoln That episode was very odd to me. Creepy when you think about more in depth. I recommend White Christmas to everyone, that’s my favorite.

Lincoln · 31-35, M

@ImRileyTheDog Which season? I'm trying to watch all of them.

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln Season 2, episode 4. Jon Hamm is in it and that’s why I love it so much.

@ImRileyTheDog That's actually what I'm watching right now! Is it about the lady who wakes up and can't remember anything?

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln That’s White Bear I believe, good episode too and a lot of people’s favorites. White Christmas is different, I don’t want to spoil it but the main characters of that episode are men too.

@ImRileyTheDog Okay! The one I'm watching now is really odd. It's an entertaining show, but it makes me think long and hard about the advancement of technology.

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln Definitely That Show will do that to you. Makes you think about our life in general and where it’s head. Also I think a lot about society and what it has become.

@ImRileyTheDog One of Stephen Hawking's predictions was that future technology could bring an end to humanity, especially A.I.

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln Very possible but if it does ever happen, I think it would happen long after you and I.

Lincoln · 31-35, M

@ImRileyTheDog That's true. The morbid side of me wants to be around to see it. I just need to know how it happens!

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln I would be nice to see how messed up or better the world becomes.

Lincoln · 31-35, M

@ImRileyTheDog I think we reached our peak. I don't really see the world improving from this point forward. I think we'll create our own downfall, although not intentionally.

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln I have to agree with that statement. Most stuff would go south but I think some things will improve well.

Lincoln · 31-35, M

@ImRileyTheDog One thing I'm certain about is that the next 50 years will be interesting.

ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F

@Lincoln Definitely agree with you on that, whether it’s bad or good.

Lincoln · 31-35, M

@ImRileyTheDog I appreciate the discussion. Those are rare nowadays. If you ever want to talk more, I'll be here!

@Lincoln Same here my friend.
