HOLY FUCKING SHIT LUCHA UNDERGROUND IS THE HYPEST SHIT EVER

THINGS THAT HAPPENED AT AZTEC WARFARE:

  1. Rey Mysterio showed up. And he brought his padawan. I'm almost expecting Eddie to show up and reveal that he was lying about being dead this whole time.

  2. An undercover cop handcuffed himself to the seats to keep himself from being pinned in the ring. This guy can also use his junk to do wrestling moves and this is not a joke in any way whatsoever.

  3. Pentagon Jr. hid in the crowd to facilitate his attack on someone and no one questioned this because masked lucha ninjas hanging out are pretty normal.

  4. El Hermano del Jefe showed up and he's probably possessed by Xolotl, the god of death.

And the season isn't even halfway over.

It's good Friday and that means apparently banks are closed so now I can't buy groceries. Thanks Cameron. >:(

In other news I have lots of ways to write! Yay uni!

So I was thinking about the show Narcos and watching all this stuff about Cuba go down and I realized I really don't know that much about Latin American history at all. I know there used to be Aztecs and such all over and the USA liked to fuck around there a lot during the Cold War because of communism (dictators are better lol /s), but that's really it. Does anyone have maybe a short book or a YouTube channel I could check out to get a brief overview?

Also, I tweeted to Trump yesterday accusing him of having a small penis. Was it immature? Absolutely. Did it accomplish anything? Not at all. Did it feel good? You know it.

Finished my first Student Teaching placement. Even though I don't particularly enjoy working in the Middle School setting, those damn 6th graders are really endearing sometimes. God now I have emotions.

I'm getting set to listen to his "King of Kings Part 2" next week. Should be an adventure and a half. I seriously considered doing a write up of the first part. Maybe I still will.

I got into it with someone on AH the other week about it. Just a mention of King of Kings = 32 upvotes. I refuse to listen to it out of principle.

that would definitely sour it a bit. I listen because, while he has historical issues, Dan Carlin knows how to weave an engaging narrative. It's fun to listen to. I don't think he deserves all of the hate he gets, but neither does he deserve the almost god-like status some people ascribe to him.

[–]hobblingcontractorTaking Advantage of Rome's Single Payer Healthcare System 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

The god-like status is what leads me to the hate. That and reliance on unreliable narrators without mentioning more reliable ones.

[–]Opinionated-LegateAryan=fans of Arya right? 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

it's very true. It's why I want to write him up so badly, but I'm a bit averse to taking the massive amount of time necessary for a complete write up. Maybe.

I think what pissed me off is that he used the most sensational measurements for city wall height, ignoring the more accurate ones done later.

I took a short (>15s) video of my cat just sitting there purring; is there an imgur equivalent for videos?

Streamable might be what you're looking for.

Why thanks for asking esteemed community member!

I'm doing alright! Going to try to post my third ever badhistory post soon. Just finished my Shell Cs project, which I spent at least 30 hours on in the last seven days. I have to read a childrens books and find a topic about Civil War memory for history. I have another project due monday, and I really want to play video games. Lets see if I make it out of this week alive!

I too wish to play video games. Alas the tribulations of adulting.
