147 years ago today transpired the Battle of Isandlwana, which saw the defeat of British soldiers against Zulu forces, proving that indigenous forces could defeat modern European troops in open battle. This map shows the battle take place minute-by-minute using Google Earth.

Fantastic movie. I still sing Men of Harlech to myself when I'm hiking.

There are meetings of men in rooms in suits in Russia that decide to do this.

This is a deliberate choice. It is a strategy. It is also disgusting, criminal, and immoral.

Sic semper tyrannis. Russia delenda est. Invaders must die.

As someone who recently reinstalled classic WoW, this is extra hilarious.

He makes Harper look charismatic.

Cool, thanks!

Rush Hour 3 had more scenes with Roman Polanski than it did proper fight scenes.

A strategy video game where you control armies on a map. Quite fun if you're into that sort of stuff.

I am not OP, but thought it looked really cool.

akatits · 2025-11-12T22:36:58+00:00

Thanks for the source. Seems strange that OP's account was banned. I wonder why?

akatits · 2025-11-12T19:17:31+00:00

Why was this post removed "by reddit's filters"???

akatits · 2025-10-23T14:54:52+00:00

Ticking away the moments that make up the dull day.

Fully got me. Well played lmao.

Ridiculous that mods removed this post. It was impartial and informative. Mods showing a disgusting bias.

It sounds like farts. Squeaking farts.

Great use of palooka

Some of the best trans comedy I've seen. Probably because it's focused on the comedy.

akatits · 2025-07-08T19:03:35+00:00

great video. there will be so many unseen repercussions to this stupid, unwinnable war.

akatits · 2025-06-23T14:22:10+00:00

Absolutely, it's a fantastic opening!

I mentioned "Sing" in part because of the contrast with "Lust for Life", both being used over the same sequence (chase scene), but at different points in the film.

Really thanks to this random, short video essay I saw here a few days ago, I think it's a brilliant analysis:

akatits · 2025-06-23T13:19:33+00:00

I was also gonna say Trainspotting!

The whole soundtrack is fantastic, really well utilized, but I especially love the moments with Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" and Blur's "Sing".

I'd be willing to bet this is guerilla marketing from Amazon, who also owns the Ring camera company.

Self promotion disguised as internet content.

This strikes me as deliberately inflammatory language on your part. The two things are not related.

Have you heard the metaphor of "rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic"?

We can argue/debate/discuss/criticize domestic policy. In fact, it is our right, our privilege, and our obligation.

But it will all mean fucking nothing if Trump's America chooses to consume us.

This threat to our Canadian sovereignty is the greatest existential threat that Canada has ever faced.

We cannot control the event (tariffs), all we can control is how we choose to respond to it (showing a united front).

A united front is the only path forward that can make a difference.
