That’s exactly what I’m talking about with erasure, though. We have to start looking at history beyond just the European lens. There weren’t any European style buildings prior to the 1500s, when the Spanish arrived, but there were massive mound structures that in some cases predate Newgrange in Ireland, Stonehenge,…

Except for the Taos Puebla, plus quite a few buildings in San Juan PR, plus the Castillo in St. Augustine, plus all the indigenous structures in the Southwest. Not all of the history of the US was made by English speakers. Which is a huge reason why WALL is so profoundly stupid.

There is! There are whole complexes in the southwest that date from that time. They aren’t at the centre of town anymore due to environmental changes, but they do exist. I think a large part of the myth that there isn’t anything like that in the US is because the people who wrote the core texts were based on the…

Whereas I think as an American we’re still in such awe of it, because, you know, we really grew up in a country that’s only been around really, technically, since 1776. It pales in comparison with the rich, deep history that England has to offer. So for me, in my own world living in England, I’m still fascinated by…

I had to go and look up a clip from it to post, Enrico Colantoni’s performance is amazing here, as is the cinematography. The lighting alone, magnificent.

Damn, if only you knew of a site that had almost weekly deals on legit sous vide circulators.

Aww. I love Patton and his reaction is so sweet. He said on MFM that when the GSK was caught that it would be like losing another connection to Michelle. I’m sure this is gratifying, but so bittersweet for him and Michelle’s co-authors. They talked at length about her dogged, unflinching pursuit of this case and how…

The only photos of Michelle we have rights to are of her alongside Patton. So it was either a close, awkward crop, or something resembling the one I used, which I think is actually sort of sweet—especially because he has continued her work.

Lady Stoneheart seems like a narrative deadend to me. i much prefer what the show has done with the Brotherhood without Banners

If only more books had been released in a timely manner that had made her presence inescapable for a television production. But whoever could have made such a thing happen?

Ha ha ha, yeah I was thinking about him facing off with the stoney-eyed Stoneman Douglas students tomorrow. Will he want to keep teaching there?! Talk about a shit show.

3) Think about what you want to eat for lunch. (2 hours later) WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON’T KNOW?! I told you to think about it!

Paid parental leave, affordable childcare, universal health care, and quality public education would also help tremendously I would think.

Considering her father doesn’t understand that Amazon pays to ship packages, or that all his tariffs on Chinese goods are killing the stock market, as well as seriously hurting farmers, who sell the majority of soy beans to China, I’m sure this, like most deals done by a Trump, was just lets do something we can…

If the pro-life movement focused on sex ed and access to birth control, the number of abortion procedures would drop.

Bet Javanka were genuinely confused when Richards turned down that sweet deal.

One of my fondest memories is my father chanting “40 bucks... everything here costs 40 bucks...” multiple times when we went to the Grand Canyon, because any activity there outside just looking at the Grand Canyon apparently costs 40 bucks per person back in 1994.

I told my kids they could each say ONE time during the week, “Come on, Dad, it’s Spring Break,” and then they would get whatever they were begging for. Usually they kept it in their pocket until the last day and they’d get that morning ice cream.
