Why should a dog, a horse, a rat, have life, And thou no breath at all? Thou'lt come no more, Never, never, never, never, never!
This is a really stupid fucking way to approach sports in general but also this is what Argentines are like
in america, this is considered the "left wing" opinon.....
this audio story is mostly good but this ending is disappointing and just repeats the same stupid "just world" myth. The Peterloo Massacre did not lead to some mass reform as people were horrified by the brutality. Quite the contrary, by all accounts it led to further stifling of reforms.
Like, I think he's funny too, but given all his biggest former collaborators are posting stuff like this (at best - look at Glinner), I mean... i'm not saying he's on THAT level, I doubt he is, I'm just saying we can't really simply assume he's some secret super radical just because he's reclusive.
mainstream utilitarians have no good answer to this because none of them truly believe their own philosophy but btw the correct answer is simply to bite the bullet and say yes it is correct to do and if you disagree you are an individualist and thus counter revolutionary.
Writing Shakespeare crossover fanfic femslash... OK I love this character now
reading enough goodreads reviews you will learn they give review copies to literally anyone these days (book is Tell Me I'm Worthless)
Stupidest rebrand ever. Awful logo. Looks like an establishing shot in a sitcom of the regular hangout spot.
mind you this is the ENTIRETY of his on screen reaction to Adric's death before he forgets about him forever
Fifth Doctor in fandom: "Oh my, I'm so terribly sorry if I disturbed you, Davros, but I hope you're not up to another naughty scheme. If I'm bothering you, just tell me, I shouldn't like to take up your time." Fifth Doctor in canon:
I love when Ancient Historians just Assert Shit. Herodotus here makes no effort to explain what the correlation could possibly be between these two things, he just expects us to go "ah, wood doesn't float on their water! THAT explains why they live to 120!"
50s pepla made to cash in on Ben Hur for a budget of a Mars Bar: Get the cinematographer of The Wizard of Oz for shots that look like Romantic paintings The biggest filmmaker alive with a budget higher than Greece's GDP: Whew, that was close! That accident of nature almost got colour in my movie!
he's also lost ken klippenstein though despite the condemnation this elephant is the room remains as of yet unaddressed
to be fair if you sold it to a numismatist it would genuinely MORE THAN cover any possible food order. also, they look like chuck e cheese tokens.
(thrusting one of these into the waiter's hand) I believe THIS should cover it!
these people have really ruined the image of cyberpunk transhumanism as a cool aesthetic, huh?
always jarring to be reminded that americans actually view the nazi king positively
QTing somebody's death announcement to talk about how mid their books were is some George Costanza behaviour.
swearing has gotta be the stupidest taboo, especially the idea bleeps make it ok when you're making people think the word anyway, unless they actually don't know what the word is, in which case the bleep is hardly gonna fool them into thinking jerry made that sound with his mouth
this is not at all how the episode frames it the very clear point that it IS rape but mark is too prim to admit it. the episode is not saying jeremy and super hans are idiots for calling it rape. why is tv tropes like this?
one of these days having to see opinions like THESE every day will drive me to murder
to be fair, not saying i feel good about the fact i did this, but when i googled this actress after seeing her in torchwood and seeing what her husband looks like i did giggle a little bit. so the looks gap isn't... well, not entirely fictional.
