Obviously the law won't be secret once it's being passed.

Yeah, up to about Leland's death they're each one day. After that they skip a few days, and later on they don't stick as strictly to the 1 day/episode format.

What he actually says in that episode is a bit more ambiguous: "When he was inside, I didn't know. And when he was gone, I couldn't remember."

Turning into a zombie means white hair and skin, a 10 bpm pulse rate and an almost complete loss of the sense of taste. It's not something Weckler could remain unaware of if Fillmore Grave had done it to him.

True, though the second article I linked makes the point that given the sheer number of crucifixions, and the fact that exceptions did occur where the victim was honorably buried, you would expect to find at least a few remains.

Well, looking at your other posts I'm gonna go with joke, but I've got to admit I still don't really see what part is supposed to be funny.

I can't tell whether that's a joke or you're being serious.

If you're talking about the famous Yehohanan find, the interpretation of him having been nailed through the wrist or forearm has been strongly disputed (however, his feet were in fact nailed to the cross): https://en.wikipedia.org/wi…

Bilquis is a goddess of sex. The ENTIRE point of many of the characters is that they ARE the original archetype. That is literally how original incarnations of sexual and reproductive deities are envisioned. Kind of how Czernobog is awfully damn phallic with his hammer and is literally obsesses with killing things and…

If they fired straight up, they wouldn't hit someone miles away.

Oh, bottle/butthole. I didn't get that until now. Thanks!

If the bullets fall close to where they were fired (particularly if, as seen in the episode, they only land a considerable time after they were fired), the horizontal component of their velocity must be pretty small and in no way lethal.

There's no firm textual basis for that, it's just later tradition based on the story of his resurrected body having holes in its hands. It's questionable whether nails (or rather, the flesh in the hand or arm) could even carry the body weight by themselves, though perhaps if the arms were wrapped over the crossbeam…

I'm at almost exactly the same point in my Twin Peaks rewatch (I just finished Episode 15 of the second season yesterday), though I've been skipping some of the worst plot lines (starting with James's Erotic Motorcycle Adventure, but soon including Teenage Super Cheersquad Nadine, Civil War Ben, Everybody Wants to…

Yes, Austria was also inclined towards war, but Germany was more impatient and leaning on them pretty hard, making them know that failure to go ahead might put the alliance between the two empires at risk.

I'm no expert, but I was reading a little about it a while back, and the way I recall it Germany actively and unambiguously sought war. Germany helped draft Austria's ultimatum to Serbia (which was deliberately designed to be impossible to fulfill, thereby providing a rationale for war), and when Serbia made…

… and they were also dead set on having the war in the first place, leaning hard on Austria to make sure they wouldn't agree to a peaceful solution (while the allies were negotiating in more-or-less good faith).

I'm just worried that the right-wing media sphere will metastasize into something even more rancid. Remember recently reading about some right-wing commentators cheering its problems because it's a "liberal" outlet anyway.

As someone reminded me when I made the same argument, it doesn't just depend on how Congress and the GOP decide to respond to the ongoing scandal, but also on what else comes to light that we don't even know about yet, and what other abuses and illegalities Trump engages in over the next few years. It is worryingly…

That's a bit of an oversimplification (though it's a commonly told story).
