Quick update: the new episode is finished, just haven't found time to record it yet. It should be up before the weekend. My wife and I just bought a new home so I've been a bit distracted the past couple of weeks.
Appreciate everyone's patience!

Today in 1918 the Guns Fell Silent on the Western Front, and more than a century later on Armistice Day we continue to reflect on the meaning of the Great War, and all those ordinary men and women in extraordinary times.

Terrible news. Cook was a fantastic historian and story teller. Finally got around to reading "Life Savers and Body Snatchers" this summer. Loved "The Mad Man and the Butcher" and "At the Sharp End" as well. He'll be missed :(

This is a good thing, but I'm not confident. What are the details of this deal? What guarantees Israel won't resume the genocide next week/month/year? How will the world respond if/when that occurs? Yes, I'm focusing on Israel because they hold all the power. Their response is what counts.

Regarding the next episode: It's coming along nicely, but the script is only half way done. The new school year has been busy and I have not found time during the week to work on it. It likely won't be posted until the weekend. I'll update everyone if plans change. Sorry for the delay!

They were arrested because ICE are a bunch of small brained sycophants whose own mothers and fathers are too ashamed to look them in the eye.
Portland ICE Facility: Federal agents made a violent arrest dragging a protester all the way across the driveway. They also deployed pepper balls on the crowd. It’s currently unclear why this person was arrested.

Every politician should have to retake grade 10 civics. Section 2(b) of the CCRF only applies to government action, not those of private citizens. For example, getting arrested or censored by the govt CAN be a 2(b) violation, but getting punched in the face for being a racist asshole, does not.

A standing ovation — from Liberals too — for Charlie Kirk in the Canadian House of Commons.
You can (and should) oppose political violence without doing all this, you know.
