Going from having sex with women to worship of a phallic monument is very on-brand for Trumpers tbh To be clear I mean that as "their politics have distanced them from having sex with women due to their obsession with a fake notion of masculinity", not that they're in the closet.

All the DC residents are having a field day with the frogs croaking in a cold December. Re the Syrah, I think she threw it at him. Sadly, outside the bottle.

One Greek mentality, and mostly Aristotle's at that. While the idea that women were less than men in some way was pretty standard, there was a lot of variation in thought on women and love/sex between men over the centuries in the different city states. Probably the most common idea about it, though, was that love and sex between men didn't have any bearing on love and sex between men and women; they were different things that served different purposes.

hawowanlawow posted:pretty sure you could be born to spartan citizens and still be deemed weak and relegated to the underclass Not generally. Being born a spartan citizen was basically the only way to become one, which ended up relegating them to the dustbin of history. One lost battle could mean a significant chunk of proper spartans dead and there was no way to get more. Athenians meanwhile were enormous misogynists but the slave/foreigner/citizen population was a lot less lopsided. Also a fun quirk is that while the west mostly loves athenians nowadays because they "invented democracy" and most of the famous philosphers were athenian, there was a long period where the US, France, Germany, and probably other countries all strongly identified with the spartans because they were brave stoic citizen-warrior types who fought a smug and perfidious mercantile adversary who could only win on the sea

RoboRodent posted:The best renting experience of my entire life is my current one, where I rent in a building owned by a very large Canada-wide company. Everything is extremely by the books because they're too big to get away with anything else, there is a 24-hour maintenance hotline and the longest I've ever had to wait is a couple hours for someone to show up in person (and the fact that I had to wait even that long was "hey you mind if I finish my lunch first since it's not an emergency?" and I said that was fine). They'll still nickel and dime you, but it does make me think about the practicality of nationalized housing. I live in a council house, councils basically being local government the same size as a town council and it’s as glorious as you imagine and more. They have a whole department full of workmen who turn up in a van to fix the smallest stuff in a few days or a big thing in under an hour. It’s basically impossible to get me out of here as my tenancy agreement is so strong. As many pets as you like so long as you don’t crazy hoard, and a maximum of 8 chickens. My rent is protected and subsidised. I can decorate the house however the hell I like. I can do as many home improvements as I like. I can build outbuildings up to 12x8 ft without permission, I bought house insurance up to £50k for an extra £1 a week on my rent. They gave me a new kitchen, they re-did the pebbledash and last year I got a new roof.

My grandmother had a council house and yeah, they are really loving lush if you can get one compared to private sector rentals. The house was a bit of a mess when she moved in but she fixed it up a bunch, which the council I'm sure were very happy about. But yeah if you're not making structural changes to it you can treat it a lot like a privately owned thing, she redid the garden a bunch and repainted everywhere without worrying. And as you say, all the maintenence is done by the council so it was all decent work and she got things like new windows put in as part of scheduled renovations. When she died we just let them know and moved all the stuff we could out/handed it off to other people on the estate who wanted it. Gave the lady over the road the bed frames for her bairns and that cos she brought her own furniture. And we didn't hear anything else from them, so I assume they just sent someone in to repaint the bits where the wardrobes were and give it a tidy. I would love a council house.

Thatcher sold a lot of them to the people living in them, and in so doing created an entire generation of gammons who became immediately obsessed with house prices and now we live in tory hell and house prices might as well be located on the loving moon for all anyone can afford them without selling another house to buy them. The problem with neoliberalism is you eventually run out of other people's state assets to strip.

My gf has an annual tradition where she and her Mum watch the Pride of Britain Awards over a bottle of wine and gently blub at the 'heartwarming' stories. Some of them are genuinely good, like a kid who bodily pulled his unconscious grandfather out of the sea onto some rocks and saved him from death by hypothermia. But a lot of them are exactly the sort of 'struggled against nearly overwhelming odds [that should never have existed in the first place]' or 'started a charity to tackle an issue [that should be a state responsibility and probably was until 10 years ago]' stuff that, for me at least, is the exact opposite of heartwarming. I am no longer allowed to watch the Awards with them...
