20 million dead in Ukraine in the 30s... Really...

Not impossible they're 1) dying or 2) lost or is losing someone they love, because of the atrocious healthcare industry. So they may have found the catharsis they needed, and don't need to speak of it, at least until their deathbed

You may think this makes it feel like you live under military occupation.

Yes!

Not to over play how shit this is but since kids use this too, I feel like sports are a great way to learn to keep track of things in your head, which must be good for your brain in addition to the physical activity. We've been doing this with hoops since we got em what does this even add? I think it just takes away another social and personal aspect of possible growth for something that will 1 for sure break and 2 still certainly suck at doing what is supposed to do anyway

We have Doom, yes, but what about a shittier, energy-hungry version sprouted from the mind of a convulsing robot baby?

This song confused me as a kid so I asked my dad what is was about, he explained who the people in the crash were. But 9/11 had just happened and I was just like oh that's basically nothing compared to that and he had to admit that was true.

Anyways, death to America

Those Germans in Pennsylvania nearly had the constitution (and thus following legal documents) be written in German as well. I feel like that's a possible shift in how future immigrants would have been assimilated, if there were precedent to allowing non-English at that level, maybe there'd be at least more pronounced and longer lasting non-English speaking communities rather than defaulting to the English dominated WASP culture that is hegemonic. Idk just mayo thoughts

It's also a reference to the song รงa ira (bonus german lyrics in this one)

I knew this because of my ~~incomparable historical research~~ having played assassin's creed unity

Ah! ร‡a ira, รงa ira, รงa ira. (Ah! It'll be fine, it'll be fine, it'll be fine.) Les aristocrates ร  lanterne. (The aristocrats - to the lamp-post.) Ah! ร‡a ira, รงa ira, รงa ira. (Ah! It'll be fine, it'll be fine, it'll be fine.) Les aristocrates, on les pendra! (The aristocrats, we'll hang them!)

The title and theme of the refrain were inspired by Benjamin Franklin, in France as a representative of the Continental Congress, who was very popular among the French people. When asked about the American Revolutionary War, he would reportedly reply, in somewhat broken French, "ร‡a ira, รงa ira" ("It'll be fine, it'll be fine")

Of course this is at Disney World. I love that she's prepared with oils like a fucking Witcher, though I'm guessing there's more nuance to what a witcher uses in different occasions. Also concerned that smelly oils are getting in those cuts. Great work all around
