Yeah this was an important point in the History of the American West class I took. There was intense racist violence across California and fear that slaves would take free jobs, so there were threats to massacre slaves that came into the state and the masters with them.

"France runs France!"

(Yes I am aware that the Vichy regime actually had fairly significant latitude at times, I have read Paxton, make of this what you will)

Fuck it, call them "spacers." It's simple and perfectly fine.

Oh he's great in this show, at least after Season 1. We stan a deranged charismatic bisexual king (see also Ragnar Lodbrok and Ecbert from "Vikings").

I see these all the time down in LA and while I find them mildly annoying I've never felt the need to step off the sidewalk for one. It's ridiculous, let contempt be your armor and make the clanker wait for its turn.

10/10 great movie. Those Soviets really should have left that Finn alone.

I feel like universities are packed full of card-carrying socialists but are run by considerably more conservative administrators.

Democrats should disabuse them of that notion if they don't want people to think that.

Superb. Very well chosen.

In my part of California it is cold and foggy and I love it.

I think this is a policy problem because without substantial public funding then I don't think this building back is feasible. There's too little money and, frankly, too few students.

...that what happened there is so unthinkable here. As you say, context is king, but if something can be found across contexts then that suggests it can happen in this one too.

I'd argue that the fact it does appear across a number of different contexts argues that it could in fact also happen here. I admit I struggle to comprehend how the United States is so completely different from South Korea, Romania, Ukraine, Taiwan, Brazil, Mexico, France, England, Russia, Rome...

Man if I knew you think I would be here?

Always a good choice.

Yeah that sounds like you alright.

Well, do we know if he did it intentionally? By all accounts Woods was just not really a good hangman to begin with.

I wonder if Eisenstein meant anything by really focusing on the eyes of that mural of Christ looking at Prince Kurbsky trying to seduce Anastasia Romanovna.

A bunch of wackos in the Great Plains would presumably be surprised by this.
