I can already imagine what his talks about trench warfare will sound like; "So imagine what it must have been like to be told "Well, we gotta take out that, gotta take out their machine gun nests so the charge happens tomorrow at dawn and by the way we're sorry that so many of you are gonna die". And you hear that every day so you go over the top, charge it, somehow you don't die trapped in the barbed wire or cut to ribbons by, by a Maxim. And you take the trench. But then your Commanding Officer says "Congratulations, we're going to do the exact same thing tomorrow!" So you do it. Again and again and again!..."

I just won tickets to see this weeks taping of Star Talk. I've never caught an episode, but I like Bill Nye. And Tig Notaro will a guest too!

He has a good episode called Logical Insanity that goes over how the precedent for dropping the atomic bomb stretches back in part to the decisions to target cities as if they were military installations, and then to target military installations with incendiary devices.

Rick posted:Dan Carlin would be an excellent rogue and a great edition to their party. So, do you think he'd be Neutral Good or True Neutral?

An overview of US/Mexican relations over the centuries would be interesting.

Trump doesn't know about the US occupation of Veracruz. He'd probably think that chick Vera Cruz asked for it.

I started losing interest in the 1904 Olympics dollop and then Rory did the first horror movie "AH-ah" and I was back on board.

This week's Citations Needed is good. It's about "gentrifiers" acting like they're colonizing/settling places where other people already live. https://citationsneeded.libsyn.com/episode-15-the-real-estate-page-as-colonial-dispatch

You may as well complain about anti-smoking biases in articles about lung cancer.
