Man you are making me feel like im stealing drug war veteran value. We only operated for a few months and sold mainly to fishermen and sailormen.
Well i dont any more. But yea it was a fun bussines venture, comming up with the various chemichal proceses.
Not necessarly. Maybe the house has something the car does not that is preventing the windows from working.
Money wise I once ran a speed lab and lost a couple grand on it after my associate chikened out because his half brother got whacked. But it was fun.
Overall. I studied for an acounting tecnician in my teenage years. Thats what i regret the most in my life. No human being should go through that. One of the reasons i dont have a college degree is tgat after going through that i sworeupon my soul and upon the mass that i would never again go through anything similar.
Brazil.
Great photography. Great actors good sets. Relatable charachters. And it perfectly encapsulates the curent trends of the world.
I tougth he was. Then i guess there arent any good ones after all.

Modesty is a cultural framework. If our current society had evolved fron the cultural norms of the yanommame what we consider an aceptable amount of clothes to wear would be much less. In the culture of cartoon bears it is very unusual to wear pants. In the culture of these girls wearing an abaya or similar clothing is the aceptable standard.
Imagine you get transported to an alterative reality were the french goverment banned pants as to make you conform to cartoon bear culture. You would likley be uncomfrtable.
Unless the girl in question puts on a similar garment before leaving, the end result is that she ends up undressed in public.
Exactly. He just goes with the flow. No soul of his own. Just another cog in a fascist machine.
This is even more notisable when you compare him with other heninlein protagonists who are also teenagers and join the army or simmilar institutions. They have their own agendas and goals.
More so than forcing children to strip?
Some people want to dress modestly. Would you feel uncomfrtable if they told you to strip at school?
I think its more opresive to force someone to undress in public when they dont want to.
The best one is the scyfi mini series. They have awsome sets and coustumes. The did change some things but not as much as the old one. The old one sucks in all aspects except their casting for paul is the best. The new one has by far the best casting(except gor paul) but some of the lines are delivered wierdly and the sets and the contrast of the colors is a bad choise.
Heinlein also claimed the book its “swiftian in intent” its just done dry. And probably wouldnt have been adapted well to tv.
That being said in the book it was clear carmencita was way out of jhonys league and he was very aware of that. While other heinlenian heroes are generally horny.
Another difference from the heinlenian hero is that jhony is not very smart. He lacks agency and any positive agenda. He just stumbles around.
Taras bulba. the american version focuses way too much on the love story. The sets are awfull. Taras does not even get burned at the stake.
The russian verssion is better. But it still misses the point. It plays it straigth while the book is suposed to be satire. They kill his wife at the begining using it as a justification for the war, when she should die at the end as a consequence of taras being an ass.
The point of the book is to show that the myths of the russian frontiersman are bullshit, because if they really acted like taras does they would all get whiped out.
Gogol is still an arch reactionary and you can tell he geuinley beleves some of the things he is moking. So its suposed to have a silly ironic self mocking sligthly nhilist tone. Remininicent of a lot of stuff in the internet. But both adaptations play it straigth and pay too much atention to the polish girl.
None of those are pro iran.
What if covid was a terrorist atack on china and iran by obama loyalists? With the aded benefit ithat it put them back in power.
