IF...

If.....

.........#Gaza
Isn't #Stalingrad
Isn't under siege
Isn't an open-air prison

 and #UniversalBasicIncome WON'T allow more people to work

If...
We've conned ourselves that all Jews should be Zionists 
That all real Jews are Zionists 
That Anti-Zionism is the same as racism 
That Islamophobia isn't a form of racism 
and that Rachel Corrie is an un-person, unlike the Skripals 

 (then) We've just collectively abandoned all notions of time, logic and causality to launch ourselves blindly and unwillingly into George Orwell's "1984".

Westeros 2

One thing which bothers me about ASOIAF/GOT  is the height of the Wall and the fact that people have been able to cross over it. Not just stone-age Wildlings but that the (supposedly under-manned and under-funded) Night’s Watch were not only able to get to the top of the Wall but actually place defences on the top!  The Wall is actually so high that people would get blown off by the wind on a regular basis! It is established in the books that the Wall (which is 700 feet high and 300 miles long) protects itself, so perhaps this is more of a plot hole. OK, so let's imagine that the Wall is, actually (more like) 300 feet high and 150 miles long, while some parts of it have fallen down. At these parts the Night's Watch have their fortifications. Specifically Castle Black, Mole's Fort which basically contains a trebuchet and Eastwatch, where the Wall is a consistent 200 feet high and extends 60 feet into the Narrow Sea  There are a number of abandoned castles on the W...

Fan Theories

Family Guy is really set in Hell! Specifically one of the Hells in the  Culture  novel "Surface Detail". The television programme "American Dad!" is also set in one of these Hells, but different to the one Family Guy is set in. Think about it. The characters never age and most would end up institutionalised if they lived in a normal society. It also, perhaps, makes sense that the creators of these Hells would consider early twentieth century North America, Earth, a suitable place to set these Hells. In Surface Detail the Hells are terrible places where the downloaded  personalities of the dead are maintained. It's denizens are routinely raped by demons (one of whom may be Glen Quagmire ) or forced into arbitrary wars. All rapes result in pregnancy (Hell is a pretty horrible place of course), which is reminiscent of certain Family Guy episodes where unexpected or bizarre pregnancies occur.

A History of the Pokémon W orld/"Earth" (by way of "Watchmen", the "Culture" novels, "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Warhammer 40,000") c.12,000,000,000 years BCE Sublimation of first civilisations and Minds c.350,000,000-300,000,000 years BCE  Mew culture/civilisation/society develops on Earth and,later, on Venus also They possibly colonise Mars Mew eventually terraform/"Mewform" a variety of planets in other solar systems  The "starter" Pokémon evolve at some point It is possible they were bio-engineered by Mew (singular or plural) to re-terraform the Earth in the case of another die-off  c.4-3,000,000 years BCE Monoliths visit Earth They take various proto-Hominid tribes to other planets around the galaxy to observe their evolution in different environments-I'm tempted to use this as an example/explanation for the prevalence of human/humanoid societies in the Culture galaxy. This doesn't reall...
