We're speaking German after French aristocrats gave us the names for all the fancy things we couldn't afford when we were all peasants.

Yep, poor people need cars to survive in the US. Barely any public transport outside of the very biggest cities. Only richer people can replace their rusty cars every 10 years.
Interesting. Culturally, France seems like the most child-hostile country in western Europe. I wonder if this is them trying to make children more acceptable in public. Good luck France! You'll have to get over yourself first. Can't take yourself too seriously when children are in the mix.
Have you tried it on a hot day? For me it's the contrast that causes the headache.
I thought this was a special power that all middle-aged people got as their sleep quality gets shittier. Like your brain is still idling, tracking stuff, instead of fully resting.
I followed the cited source for the wikipedia claim, and it's just a guy writing a paper and saying his opinion. He's not citing anything deeper to cover his claim about an initial volley followed by targetting individual solders. Just because it's in a paper doesn't mean it's right, or even well-researched.
Sure, it FEELS right, and that does have weight with living history and experimental archeology, but I worry that "feeling" is the only thing anyone is actually citing in this whole conversation, including Wikipedia.
Nobody was holding a ~90lb war bow at full draw waiting to hear "Loose". Not possible.
Volley fire wasn't a thing with bows. You ever try holding a 90lb war bow at full draw waiting for someone to yell "Loose"? Never happened.
Unless he's in India or Poland they're not hiring him anyway.
When you carry a hammer, everything is a nail.
left tends to be pro-social for solutions, right tends to be pro-violence for solutions, so... yeah...
I hope this isn't a photo from mode pandemic... I mean fuck cars and all that, but drive thru was clutch for a bit there.
