Some of the Buffy lines are great even 30 years later
Buffy "I told 1 lie and had 1 drink"
Giles "Yes and you were nearly devoured by a Giant Demon snake, the words let that be a lesson are a tad redundant" 😂😂
@AstorJacob1 you should definitely try it 🤓

In 1840 an American slave ship ran aground in the Bahamas.
On British ground, the 38 people below deck could not be owned. 🇬🇧
Free Black boatmen rowed out, magistrates came aboard, and all 38 walked ashore free.
19 October 1840. The Hermosa, a schooner out of Richmond, Virginia, bound for the slave markets of New Orleans.
Below deck, 38 enslaved people. Her papers listed them as cargo.
She struck a reef off Abaco, in the Bahamas. British ground.
Bahamian boatmen rowed out through the surf, free Black men who worked these reefs for a living, and carried all 38 safe to Nassau. Britain had abolished slavery 6 years before.
The captain refused to let them ashore. He called for another ship to carry them back to bondage. Then British magistrates came aboard, armed men at their backs. No fleet. No proclamation. A local court doing its ordinary work.
In Virginia, paper made those 38 people property. On British ground, no paper on Earth could. One by one, 38 people stepped ashore at Nassau. Free.
The owners demanded them back for years. They never got them.
Nobody famous freed those 38. Boatmen rowed out. Magistrates climbed aboard. Ordinary hands, keeping Britain's word.
In Virginia, paper made them property. On British ground, thanks to the British citizens, it could not. 🇬🇧
This is the revival of British culture. Be part of it.

Whats crazy about this thread is the replies of people justifying a man becoming a Trillionaire instead of having health care. It's absolutely insane
Jun 12
Capitalism is better than socialism because one man gets to be a trillionaire instead of everyone having healthcare

@theknightirish I know you're not a Starwars fan but you should try these books especially as Zahn goes in with actual space battles and tactics and Thrawn is this military genius

Book #22 for the year. A great second volume to his American Revolution trilogy. This spans the high point for Rebels at Saratoga through defeat after at Brandywine, Germantown, Savanah, and Charleston. Highly recommend if you want to understand the military history of the war.

The @BBC should definitely make a Band of Brothers style show out of @MarkUrban01 book Fusiliers, it would work so well

RIP to a generational British talent.
Anthony Head was best known for his roles in hit TV shows like Buffy and Doctor Who but his best role was Uther Pendragon in Merlin.
His craft in having you hate this evil man yet crushing you with his love for his son was stellar to watch.

@Artemisapphire So Iv finished Season 3 of the Alex Rider series. Really great show. I dunno how close it was to @AnthonyHorowitz books but I liked it. In fact I think the actors real life age helped because it makes it more believable than a spotty teenager going through puberty

@KristianHarloff @TheRochaSays I just saw your YouTube episode discussing the Mandalorian. I cant claim to speak for all fans who didn't watch it but my reasons will be general enough. 1 The trailers and clips released looked cheap and not worth my time 2 Even at its height the

@KristianHarloff @TheRochaSays 2 problems Starwars has moving foward.
1 is Andor, as that showed you can have quality story telling and well written characters rather than member berries on the volume
2 Dave Filoni is in charge and hes not creative he can't do new , he only does

...member berries. This is the guy that gave us helicopter lightsabers and brought time travel into Starwars.
Even the Maul show which Krisitian loved is basically Maul redoing the Vader R1 scene several times. Its all just member berries.Audiences need or want more tba than that

I love how many elements on this platform believe “England has fallen”, “civil war is minutes away” yet here I am sat in an English pub and the most serious topic of conversation being that it might rain tonight.
