Deer call World Championship 2026 in Germany.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I watched this new episode of Bandsplaining and ended up with one of the most faved comments:
Namely... " The fact that you could go an entire episode about Space Age Pop without uttering the name "Esquivel" requires a second episode."
Seriously, Esquivel is probably the musician most synonymous with this style of music and he doesn't even get mentioned once.

Brave New Worlds (1993) is a phenomenal documentary about science fiction that I watched on TV back in the 90s. It features many prominent science fiction writers like Robert Silverberg, Arthur C. Clarke, Octavia Butler, William Gibson, etc., and some prominent directors of SF movies. They go through science fiction novels of the 20th century, as well as some of the SF movies, and say how each novel or movie changed the genre, how it changed between decades, and finish with the 90s, where they kind of conclude that the era of science fiction is over.
