How many times have you been the person saying “It’s 2018, things are better now”, or even “It’s 1970, nobody is racist any more”. Or if you haven’t, how many times have you been arguing against the person telling you “It’s 294, Diocletian has implemented the tetrarchy and now everything’s fine. Rome’s going to be fine forever.”
Well not literally that, but you get...

Porphyrogenitus was a greek word that was somewhat of a slang term. It meant “born to the purple” a bit like our “born with a silver spoon in your mouth”. Purple, a rich and rare colour to produce a dye for, was understood in many ancient societies - Egyptian, Persian, Roman and Greek - to be the colour of royalty.
The last queen of Egypt, Cleopatra, was a member of the Ptolemaic ...

Hi everyone!
I literally didn't know about up-front charging before, and I would have had it on before if I'd known, so I'll be changing to that model from January 1st. I'm waiting until January first because I know I've gained a few supporters in the last couple of weeks and they won't have been expecting to be debited before Jan 1st. That's all!
Thanks again to all of you, your support r...

Socialism in Space
My name is Jean-luc Picard, and I am here to ask you a question: Is a man not entitled to the sweat on his brow? NO says the man on Vulcan it belongs to science and reason! NO says the man on Kronos it belongs to the most honourable warriors! NO says the Borg it belongs to everyone! I rejected those answers, and chose the impossible. I chose… space, the final frontier.

Curio Discussion Episode 2: God of War (Never talk to me or my son again)
Bioshock 2 is incredible don't @ me
I’ve seen the 2015 horror film The Boy more times than I am proud of. I really love that movie. Everything about it is insanely funny to me. If you aren’t familiar, The Boy is about a woman who has to come take care of the son of an old rich couple who live in a mansion in the english countryside (nonspecific). It turns out the son is a doll, and she starts to think the doll is haunted by the ...

Mythologising family (Halloween come-down de-spook)
Okay, so Halloween is over now. We all did some dressing up and got in the festive mood. I released my Bloodborne Spooktacular and everybody loved it. We’ve all gotten a bit spooked, now let’s all take a breath, and get de-spooked. The best way for us to get de-spooked is if we look at something that’s spooky with an ending that relieves us of all the tension. Better than that, let’s look ...
