    Reagan was a terrible person to lead the country. His policies were terrible, his actions were terrible, his attitudes and beliefs were terrible.


    There's an apocryphal story about Reagan near the end of his life. Alzheimers was in full swing and he'd be at his calmest and most lucid cleaning leaves out of the pool so his secret service detail would keep dropping leaves in the water for him to scoop out.

    Alzheimers is already one of my biggest fears. Fuck the disease even more for making me empathize with Reagan and his family.

    I have my doubts Reagan's second term would have survived the 24-hour news era let alone social media. His status was this weird open secret that Washington just kind of rolled with but the public didn't understand at all.

    whaaaaaat is that?

    The prince consort is the guy that the queen fucks

    Unless your name is Sophie Friederike Auguste von Anhallt-Zerbst-Dornburg (god, I hope I spelled all of that right), than it's the majority of the officer corps of the Cossack cavalry.

    good for her

    you git sum gurrl

    Catherine's requirements were about as rigid as the Swiss Guard. At least 6 feet tall, preferably minor nobility but low born men of talent were acceptable, high degree of stamina, and she typically had 2 particular ladies-in-waiting take them for test rides and waited for a review like Consumer Reports.

    When she died at 67 2 of her known paramours at the time were under 25. The horse thing is complete bullshit though, standard smear campaign by the members of the Russian court she pissed off.

    daaaaaaaaaaamn

    She knew she was a woman trying to make it in a man's world, when it came to politics and handling the boyars she was basically Bismarck in petticoats. After being married to Peter III for awhile, they still hadn't consumated (most likely due to a congenital condition that made getting it up incredibly painful for him) and some of her friends at court mentioned that Peter had been chatting with the Metropolitan of Moscow about annuling the marriage and marrying a good Slavic girl and not the German princess that may have not completely abandoned Lutheranism for Russian Orthodox.

    Learning this, she proceeded to get both herself and Peter wasted and took him to the royal bedchamber with a couple of witnesses (not an uncommon occurrence for nobility when marriage legalities became an issue) and nipped that in the bud.

    I'd never seen that Killer Mike video, and therefore never heard that Reagan quote where he says that his heart tells him that the US never traded guns for hostages but that the facts say otherwise, and that's the most perfect public summary of modern Republican politics that I've ever heard and I'm a little shook.

    Also I saw someone post, unironically, that Prince Phillip had "dedicated his life to public service" and that it was a shame that he's dead and I think I had a teeny tiny aneurism.

    I feel like modern republicanism would say “fake news” and still deny the facts, but ignoring facts to go with heart is definitely where their voters are

    Like with any 18th century ruler, there were some definite bad with the good. She reinstituted certain privileges to the boyars when it came to the treatment of serfs (i.e. denied them the 2 week holiday at harvest time when they could look for another landlord or job) and she treated a lot of the subject peoples in the central Asian steppes about on par with the British Raj in India.

    Fascinating gal overall though. Her and Eleanor of Aquitaine are my favorite ladies in medieval and early modern times when it comes to telling the patriarchy of their age to get fucked.

    Honorable mention to Maria Theresa of Austria (only female Hapsburg to rule in her own name).

    This is part of, or I guess I should say culmination of, an ongoing joke about things spicy enough to kill Phil, including a single unsalted french fry, a photograph of curry, or a mixed-race couple.

    Article didn't say but I"d assume 2011 since that's when House Republicans implemented an earmark ban.

    More than finger banging happens in that song. Right after Jack has his hand between Diane's knees they go behind the shade tree:

    Jack he says
    "Hey, Diane, let's run off behind a shady tree
    Dribble off those Bobby Brooks
    Let me do what I please"

    edit: Oh, and there's the bit about Diane's first time being in the backseat of Jack's car.
