Watching TV shows or movies that display Russia as a military superpower is almost surreal nowadays. (self.showerthoughts)

Was just watching Jack Ryan Season 3 and seeing the display of force and their movements causes some interesting dissonance given what we know now.

Every time this movie comes up, I feel obligated to point out that despite being under occupation by ~~China~~ North Korea - Subway is somehow still open with uniformed staff and a well stocked sandwich bar, all while having dine-in customers for convenient ad placement..

Ad placement that, get this: goes as far to even have the characters use the official 'Sandwich Artist' job title while robbing them ಠ_ಠ
