Welcome to my last day of Bond-mas! Here's my favorite Bond film, Skyfall (2012).
A beautiful blend of sets, locations, and action with an iconic villain and a... convoluted plot.
Just don't ask me about the sequels, lol.

- Watched a woman experiencing psychosis gouge out her own eyeballs.
- Ignored a man’s beeping insulin pump for more than 24 hours before he died.
- Left a man sitting in his own feces not eating for weeks, he lost 60 lbs before he died.
All in San Diego County, last ~5 years.

"experts have been saying the same thing for decades–you cannot torture your way to safety. Destabilizing someone’s life does not reduce crime. Degrading people does not rehabilitate them."
Ford and Downey are at it again. Another “tough on crime” bail bill that won’t reduce crime, won’t improve safety, and will violate the Constitution while punishing poverty.
Their Cash bail grift is bad law and worse policy.
