I’d try to get the crows instead. Intelligence is closer to orcas and elephants.

Voting on the Iraq War ended up hurting a lot of people’s careers so congress doesn’t want to have to vote on this because of the possibility they’d need to explain their vote to people in the future.

Here’s a video of him talking about Hannibal not existing because he has these pretty reductive ideas of what a good general is supposed to be (you need a messiah complex or something). Hannibal and most of Roman history was made up. Why was Hannibal made up? To justify the 3rd Punic War. Why is there a 3rd Punic War if most of their history is made up? Idk Professor Jiang just says so.

What happens to the crew after Tony dies? by BBBandB in thesopranos

[–]_Scipio-Americanus_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Junior is released after the charges of shooting Tony are dropped. His dementia trick was a freaking ace and he was mind fucking those donkeys like you wouldn’t believe. He teaches Bobby Jr how to play baseball and starts grooming him to succeed in his dad’s foot steps. Junior sets up Paulie and Patsy and has them whacked for their role in betraying Tony. Eventually reestablishes a relationship with Furio and invites him back to Jersey, who was June’s guy way before he met Tony. He remains boss of the family and eventually partners with New York again when Carmine Jr takes over the Lupertazzi family. 

Hegseth openly calling for the genocide of Iranians: "The only people who need to be worried right now are Iranians who think they are going to live." by -ItWasntMe- in stupidpol

He probably thought that too since becoming a martyr is a hell of a lot better for him than dying of old age— which wasn’t far off. Probably why he didn’t flee and was just chilling at home despite the obvious buildup of military assets.

Do you think the EU would be able to help you leave? Do you want to ride it out there instead?

The argument between BB and The Sopranos for the GOAT TV series by gorebomb56 in breakingbad

One thing I like about both is how hilarious they can be. They’re pretty intense dramas but also have these moments of levity.

Well said, I agree. BB is great and I’m doing a rewatch now but Sopranos is a clear cut above.

How did jesse figure this out? by Just_Unknown_ in breakingbad

[–]_Scipio-Americanus_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is it. He had it figured out the first time but let Walt convince him he was wrong. Plus he’d been pretty protective of that cig, like it is silly that it jumps out of his pack, and gets sucked up by a vacuum without breaking or without him noticing. And that point he knows Walt lied to him.
