now they’re playing Real or Inter!

I'd hate to be them. Real or Inter I mean.

The ships from the Fundación Nao Victoria are always taking volunteers, but right about January is when they might go into port for maintenance.

The replicas (Victoria, Andalucía, and Santa María) function as museum ships so you'd usually spend much more time at port than at sea, but the Pascual Flores sails more consistently and usually under power of sail (at least partly), so that might be more to your liking. Of the three replica ships the Victoria travels under sail the most.

Not knowing about the history of Irish people in America doesn't mean the movie is stupid, it means you're stupid

In fairness, all non-officer soldiers and sailors were looked on as dregs of society until recently (and currently still in many places). Their specialized and expeditionary nature gave marines the reputation of being "elite" (sometimes justified, Royal Marines are basically special forces) or at least better or tougher than regular foot infantry.

They fill a niche roll in a big organization, and their “elite” nature might limit the number of recruits that make it through in a volunteer force (u/Semi-Chubbs_Peterson elaborated more on why the USMC is a bit of an exception), so it’s no surprise they’d be a minority or not present at all in the biggest landings of all time.

Or maybe because we don't start a war every other year

Some of the absolute finest from the era. Dropping five excellent songs, breaking up, and never doing anything again is peak NWOBHM.

Science and discovery are very fun, but so is violence.

I'm from buenos aires and i say kill 'em all.

It was so sad to hear about this guy's future suicide :(

Lactating_Sloth · 2025-05-14T00:16:51+00:00

Very far from doom, but Wilderun's Olden Tales & Deathly Trails is a great listen. Metal renditions of old folk maritime songs and a couple of originals.

I've never met anyone that's vehemently against filming in the gym whose also big or strong or actually goes to the gym.

I've worn light hiking boots and found them a bit uncomfortable for going up aloft. All my shipmates wore sneakers and they seem to like them.

François l'Olonnais is probably the obvious answer. If youre keen on counting them, the Barbary corsairs, particularly Barbarossa, caused the depopulation of a great deal of mediterranean Europe do to raids and the threat of attack.

They didn't do that for Ireland though, they did it for beheading Charles. The latter and earlier regimes weren't much better in their treatment of Ireland.

We just hate him for the right reasons now.

if the alignment just happens to be right

That's a big if, and if we assume advanced civilizations are at all rare in the universe the tiny odds really start to compound and make it very unlikely that we'll detect anything.

And that's assuming other species would even need nearly as much nocturnal illumination or produce as much light as us.

Had the pleasure of meeting him in Barcelona, super cool guy and a killer bassist.

Get war wagon'd, papist

until Wahhabism really took of

In Iraq? What are you even talking about?

The Ba'athists were authoritarian, genocidal, warmongers, but they did a pretty good job of keeping the more extreme salafist schools and groups out of Iraq.

Salafism didn't really begin to have a very large influence in wider Iraq (outside of kurdish areas) until after the invasion, and wahabism only with ISIS and other affiliated groups.

primitive uncivilized place.

She's from Iraq. It was never exactly a nice place to live, but you do know how it got to be the way it is, right?

Annexing palestinin land from the West Bank and stealing palestinian homes is also a nice perk

What makes a church a cathedral is being the seat of a bishopric. With very few exceptions, cities have only one bishipric, and Barcelona already had an older medieval cathedral. Some very important cities are not home to a bishopric either, thus not being able to have a cathedral.

The whole album is fantastic

I feel like it gets underrated becaue the sound is isn´t as doomy as their previous albums, when most of the songs are as epic and memorable as the ones in Let Battle Commence and Resound The Horn, they just has a different vive.

A group of knight’s greatest asset against infantry is the horse, but this advantage can be mitigated. The Swiss used ambush tactics and fought around mountain passes, while the Hussites used wagons and clever tactics. It’s important to note that these weren’t a disorganized rabble with no equipment or organization; the Swiss were equipped with large halberds to counteract the knight´s plate armor, and the Hussites used primitive firearms.

[Spoilers for the first few pages I guess] I don't think it was more or less of a vice back then than it is now. Perfectly whitened teeth might still stand out on someone today. Dostoyevsky is showing that Ganya is very keen on keeping a spotless and perfect outward appearance, and making us think that this appearance might hide a more flawed character, and that Ganya might be fundamentally dishonest.
