I'm trying to acquire the DVDs, so I might be able to help you with that in a week or two.

if you have a book on your phone or an e-reader you can probably do that with your non-dominant hand? headphones also seem like a good idea tho yea

i can, but my tattoo artist has music playing in the bg so idk how that'll go. thank you!!

Can you wear headphones? That opens up a bunch of options. I'd also expect the tattoo artists have ideas. Good luck!!

Reply to comment by hollyhoppet in Anyone know any good books about the first world war? by hollyhoppet
i figured, but if i asked for books and i got a reply which kinda parses as "listen to a chud podcast while the world dies" i'd be displeased👽
i get confused by a lot of weird takes without having a good background in shitty-but-popular historians. like imagine not knowing about the Black Book of Communism when somebody starts telling you Stalin was worse than Hitler. it's just easier to map their "tree of beliefs" as one of my professors once called it
also Revolutions podcast is pretty great I'm sure they've got some material on WWI events but they cover uprisings in general :) good luck in your quest for knowledge

He seems to admire Winston Churchill despite going over what a raging alcoholic bastard he was in his "inebriated history" episode. No comment on that. I do like the idea of podcasting about different historical figures who were absolutely off their tits, he mentions Dr. Feelgood, everybody's favorite bourgeois pharmacist

Dan Carlin is kind of a "big man" historian which I dislike personally but he's obviously passionate about what he does. His voice can be a little grating don't tell him I said that

no idea if it's normal or not but I am often also in the same boat where I do things for people out of a pure sense of obligation, of detached "I want to be the kind of person who would do this kind thing," with no real feelings associated with it.

I guess it depends, like if they're a friend and have a really nice positive reaction I might ride the high of gift giving but if it's more of a courtesy thing like it sounds your sitch was, it might not register like that.

Reply to do you think the band "The Killers" picked their name as a deliberate reference to the best ever death metal band out of denton, or is it just a coincidence? by Dogmantra
ive thought about this too, and i think those other names are taken now too
