The New Jersey senator spent much of his speech, which ended after more than 25 hours, assailing the Trump administration. He eclipsed Strom Thurmond’s filibuster of a civil rights bill in 1957.

Damn, that's a lot of zeroes. How do you even pronounce that? Brazillion? Vermillion? /s

The equality of women is indeed a point where the bible failed, but you can't do everything right at once. I'm not a fan of the bible, but in it's days, it was a good book that taught good values. Values that were better than society was at the time and it really improved society.

Slavery was very much and accepted socio economical practice in those days. The mentioning the bible does are often not reminiscent of the 18th century slavery we're all familiar with. Slavery I'm those days was often a kind of servitude, for a couple years, tto pay off debt. The bible recognises that for what it is and tries to humanise slavery by saying things like to treat your slaves as your brother

No it won't spark any debate. Who even cares if some mediocre twitter service gets turned off? Who even cares if twitter gets turned off?

I mean, it's a 1000 year old book. Slavery was accepted and normal in those days.

With karaoke you usually see the lyrics on a screen, but good song nonetheless

First time (and only time) I played, one of my group was determined to go to the hoard of monsters outside. The DM kept asking if he really wanted to do so, and he constantly said yes. Which prompted the DM to roll his little dice and make a note. That happensed about five turns, he even survived one or two turns in the middle of the hoard.

The DM kept hinting that the hoard was just a hoard and surely meant death. He kept pushing him toward the other side (I think it was a castle), but my friend was very stubborn.

It wasn't a very long game, but it was fun. We should do that again some time.

We said the same thing about Facebook 15 years ago. Look at them now. Still twitching proudly with the vigour of youth while their teeth are falling out and their flesh is rotting.

 

Shohreh Aghdashloo is Chrisjen Avasarala from The Expanse.

Hemi Yeroham is Kovloski from The Amelia Project

They both have a very distinct bu similar accent, maybe it's a Middle Eastern thing. They're from Turkey and Iran respectively. Anyway, I'd love to hear them work together some day.

 

I just finished watching Lost. I didn't watch it in the previous decade, because everyone told me the ending was super bad. Now that I've finished it, I don't get it. What was so bad about it?

 
 

I've recently been watching Ghosts on Netflix. It stops after the second season, but I just read that the fourth season is allready in production. Why doesn't Netflix show me the other seasons?

P.s. I will be fixing this, but I'm not allowed to discuss how I'll do that.
