This is incredible
The sadly now late but forever great PATRICK STEWART made one of the great guest appearances as the ‘debonair’ star conductor of the Seattle Opera Guild - Alistair Burke - in one of my favourite episodes of FRASIER (2003) RIP Sir Patrick (1940-2026)

Damn. That knocked the wind out of me.

It’s sad to think features like these have survived centuries, thousands of years of human history. Hooded eyes, aquiline noses, strong eyebrows, round cheeks, thinner lips, tall, larger built, square jaws, the very faces our mothers, our grandmothers carried, all of it stretching back to queens and peasants alike. Features that have survived it all, seen it all, and all for you to be told now — well it’s just not attractive. Imagine inheriting a face shaped by the entirety of human history, imagine being blessed with a beauty that has survived the many rises and falls of humanity, only to be told you now have to give it all up to the vanities of this generation. What worth is beauty without any history? What worth is beauty without meaning? What worth is beauty when it stops being something we recognize and instead becomes just something we manufacture?

I don't think it's possible to suggest a rule change to a sport that fans of that sport will actually like. It sucks because I have a lot of REALLY good ideas.

We need to understand what’s going on here. The only thing that can stop billionaires and trillionaires from turning their wealth into outright authoritarian power is democracy. That’s why they’re fomenting division in Canada & other democracies. They want to break us to own us.
