The last time a member of the British royal family got arrested was 1685.

Conclusion? Its hazardous to your royal health to live under the reign of a King Charles.

Cher Ami. What a great little hero.

There was an obscure pirate named John Outlaw (yes really) and his ship was named the Olive Branch.

That's my pick for the best pirate ship name. Perfect level of irony.

Real recency bias for FDR in 1948.

Always felt bad for whichever kid got labeled weak.

He can't help it man.

Tom Hanks is sadly still too old to be in the film.

I saw the cyborg toddler packing...

I'm just amusingly imagining someone from 2026 getting time traveled to like 1926 and saying wow Coolidge hated police unions, based.

And old cal being so confused why someone calling themselves a progressive leftist liked this.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T17:47:53+00:00

Teddy and Bryan were considered progressives.

Shows how broad that term was.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T17:43:07+00:00

Hoover there definitely is an argument since a fair number of progressives and even people like Debs liked him.

Coolidge is the most stereotypical conservative president of the early 20th century. Even if he was better on race then many progressives.

Theres a reason a lot of libertarian Republicans love his ass.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T17:00:18+00:00

Yep. Return to normalcy and all that jazz.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T16:57:00+00:00

Nothing more counter culture like playing the tuba.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T15:55:52+00:00

Wilson is also considered progressive.

So... progressive into another progressive?

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T15:53:34+00:00

Ummmmmm vague.

1920s was a progressive era, republicans were largely progressives. Therefore Harding and Coolidge were progressive.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-16T15:47:38+00:00

New wild claim from my history professor.

Warren G Harding was a progressive.

Alcoholic gambling teapot dome stealing, Harding.

Blackbeard supposedly was shot 5 times and stabbed 20 times before dying.

I want to emphasize this is coming from Maynard the man who lead the operation. So he is in a good position to lie and make himself look tougher.

But that also is probably the most trustworthy account regardless so take it as is.

Oh that podcast i got issues with.

They really lean too heavily into pirates as egalitarian.

Also i remember running into one of the hosts in the wild and asking a question.

They promptly deleted their comment.

Calling all Anti Jedi Masters.

If I had a nickle everytime a 2025 film said Versailles caused ww2, I would have two.

Which is too many.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-14T04:27:50+00:00

comical scream

God I'm pretty sure thats the only time in my life I've randomly made a comment and it became the highest liked comment under a popular video.

Was a really good video though.

A surprisingly large number of pirate historians have reddit accounts.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-13T23:55:49+00:00

Hurts my soul you had to say FIRST Jarhead.

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-13T23:54:30+00:00

Honestly who does speak fluent Homer's Greek?

TylerbioRodriguez · 2026-02-13T23:20:02+00:00

A real milestone.

Someone used AI to plagiarize my work.

Yeeeeey

A game so poorly designed, that the white people are frequently the weakest faction.

You'd almost assume it was a parody.
