‘The Odyssey’ women Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong'o, and Charlize Theron stun in Paris.

I wish to become the kind of person who sees the world through the lens of those I love and I think it would make my enjoyment of Oda Nobunaga more rad too. The drama of history comes from it being lived by people who love, fear, and dream as you do.
"My kid suddenly asked, 'What historical era do you like?' This old history nerd's blood kicked in & I shot off, 'I ahh used to like the Bakumatsu [end of Shogunate] and the Warring States Period...' He replied, 'I like the Reiwa Era bc it's when my little brother was born."
In a just world, Cynthia Rothrock would be 10x as famous as Steven Segal and Chuck Norris combined.

Once late at night I had the idea to have a social media space for each year to discuss old media like you go to to the 1993 feed and post "True Romance Gary Oldman you cannot be talking like that" but it fell apart because I remembered about other people

F1 today has all my favorite plotlines. Lewis wins, George is defeated but gets 2nd pantomime villain style, Charles is under some kind of vaguely Greek curse where the thing he loves betrays him over and over...
