As I recall, it was Ice CUBE not Ice-T.

One of the highlights of an outstanding cast.

Unfortunately, legal recourse is only for the big
"content owners" who can afford to do so, and they are the ones actively looking to AI to create more "content". Individual authors and artists have no say unless they are billionaires. I hate to say it, but we're fucked.

If directors were honest and just said "teaching actors to fight & working out camera positions to show realistic combat is too hard/expensive" or even "it's stylized"; I'd be OK with it. But I hate it when they say "realistic fighting doesn't look good" because that is straight up BS.

I'm a little glad that the answers are pretty similar for both sexes, and don't support the silly meme that only men think about history. Those are rookie numbers though!
Also castles (and gothic architecture) should both be 99% favorable - I guess most people have never seen one in person.

Could have been a soldier who did his service, got out, and then found some success as a merchant. Or married up. The vibrancy of their portraits makes you want to imagine their stories.

Even better. A werewolf with a machine gun killing Nazis sounds like exactly what we could use right now.

Isn't this a portrait by the artist Thomas Gainsbro?

Yes, and there is a fascinating progression over a couple of centuries of proto-Pyramid architecture, from flat-topped mudbrick tombs to stepped towers to actual true pyramids.

I think in the Regularis Concordia the only mention of bathing is to encourage it "as often as needed" for the sick, while recommending "less often" for the healthy. However, it is also worth remembering that Benedict was an ascetic, and not representative of ordinary people.

Extremely based book! Also the lady in the black jacket looks awesome.

For once, I will give NDT the benefit of the doubt. Obviously several Cathedrals topped-out higher (slightly) than the great Pyramid, but the earliest of those is still over 3500 years later & comparatively close in time to the Eiffel tower. So he's incorrect, but it's close and I get the point.

If you haven't tried AC Origins, I'd recommend that too, even just for the tour mode. I loved walking around Ptolemaic Alexandria, or stealing a boat to go upriver!

What a classic fashion style! She looks ready to fly away on a DC-3 to have adventures at any moment and look good doing it.
