Those videos about the Tudors make me want to play EU4. And then I fire up EU4 and am quickly cured of that impulse. I should install EU2 again. :hmm:

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I like the samurai theme, but I still need to finish the Dark Souls games and Bloodborne.

I don't do Sudoku myself, but agree the vid is a fun watch.

I used to do a lot of Sudoku but I got a little too robotic about it and it ceased to be fun. The techniques in those videos make me want to take it up again. Thanks for bringing that to my attention Tim. :)

The head of the German Tank Museum, Ralf Raths, is somewhat unpopular with some of the Wehraboos who complain about a "young" guy (he's born in '77) with long hair running the museum, and that he "badmouths" (i.e. doesn't glorify) the German Panzerwaffe/Wehrmacht but rather sticks to facts and evidence in his YouTube videos and book reviews.

With his intro showing him "working from home" for the announcement that the museum reopens (with Corona rules in place) I'm sure he's trolling that segment:



:lol:

(The actual presentation is all professional after that, with a proper shirt, and hair tied into his trademark pony tail)

Funny how actual historians tend not to glorify historical events or agents while the amateur "history nerds" gravitate around such things.

NANOWAR OF STEEL - Valhalleluja:

https://youtu.be/S9WWz95ripA

The longest Ikea ad I've ever seen.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I was recently put on to them due to their Tooth Fairy video, which is equally as impressive.

Nanowar (of Steel) are awesome, but you need to know a lot about Italy and its society to get many of their jokes.

I take it that you're familiar with Norwegian Reggaeton already?  :P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0YXfeNxJJ0

:hmm: Not sure which of the jokes I missed--they all seem pretty transparent to me!

:D Yes, I'm working through all their videos now that I got the bug.
