just got to thinking about ITTL star trek, with Kirk being played by a woman and all that, and now im thinking about the ITTL reboot starring miss Scarlett Johansson as Kirk. Thanks Jello, you've brought out the 15 year old boy in me when I worked so hard to bury him with adult maturity.
WHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you Libertad.I liked DeLeon's Crew's post on his birthday but I can't remember if I already said my greetings so I'll just do it again.
Happy (belated) Birthday to you!
Scarlett Johansson in the role of Fem-Kirk !? Brilliant idea!!!
I'm sure anti-heroes will arrive during the 60's and 70's, as the social realism that defined the Golden Age of Comics ITTL becomes more lenient, and darker, less socially responsible heroes are accepted.

Arabia is a Hashemite kingdom instead of being under the more reactionary House of Saud.
I do not understand - why decriminalize prostitution? According to the idea, new social relations must bring it to naught.
Author's Comments:
I grew up in West Texas as a Methodist like my mom's family. My dad was Church of Christ but had not been to church in twenty something years due to hypocrisy that people were more interested in the power/positions but not helping people. I did not go every Sunday but enough to cover the basics. I have gone to Baptist and Charismatic services during this time searching for a new home. After several years of not going to church due to work and university I became a Unitarian in 2004 after hearing about them on the local NPR station in my hometown (they were one of the sponsors). I remain a Unitarian to this day and have taken my wife, who is Hindu, to services and to provide her some community/friends.
Regarding the UASR and the universe: Several years ago I read a book called the Left Hand of God, The: Healing America’s Political and Spiritual Crisis by Michael Lerner asking why people voted against their best interests. Basically that when people moved across the state or country the first place they try to find is a local church or center for their faith in order to provide community support from education to jobs to what stores to shop. While racial or ethnic lines have blurred somewhat the religious lines are still visible, especially in the southern United States. People vote based on how their community votes most of the time (this is my opinion). So let us consider this world where both sides had hardened themselves before the Revolution. After the Civil War and the massive disruptions people of faith would try to seek some sort of community to begin rebuilding the country and providing help. While the power of the traditional church was broken by the war and its association with the old government the UASR did not try to remove all forms of religion like the French and Russian revolutions. Instead of a top-down approach to church leadership it would be a bottom up approach similar to today's Unitarian Universalism. Trinitarianism would focus on the good things of religion working for women's suffrage, anti-slavery, better working conditions and so on.
So now let us talk about the post-war world. We now have people that have seen the worst the world has thrown at them with the Civil War and the Second World War. Some will return to civilian life and hang up the uniforms and citations on the wall like our grandparents did. Others however will not be satisfied on returning and will seek a greater purpose in life. The
Trinitarians will see many people return to further their education and seek to volunteer overseas. They will be used to hard living in a quasi military setting and willing to defend themselves if attacked. They will become the basis of what I called the Spartans.
In the sense that you are going into another situation where you need to pick your battles and drop the conversation, otherwise you are going to antagonize people in this thread.
So...don't pursue the topic, just to be safe.Just this topic is beyond my understanding. Why legalize, if can finish once and for all?In the sense that you are going into another situation where you need to pick your battles and drop the conversation, otherwise you are going to antagonize people in this thread.

Hey Nevermore, what happened to your list of AH.com posters? It was pretty useful, and now I can't find it anymore.
It's probably buried pretty deep by now; if you'll recall, I was trying to gauge which posters were going to allow other people to use their characters. I plan on doing an updated version of this list soon-ish so if you hold on until later tonight I can do it with all the profile entries since I originally posted it.

It can't be finished once and for all. Wait until world communism. Put it in the list of things to be abolished by that time.
By the way, what happened to soccer in the United States ITTL before 1933. I believe because what happened there will affect continuity of U.S. soccer into the post-revolutionary era in the UASR and greatly enhanced relations within the Comintern, like with Latin America.
For reference, see here for the U.S. Soccer League.

Because prostitutes are not the problem, pimps are. It's not legalization, prostitution and the other things are being decriminalized because it would be unjust to continue to arrest people based on a reactionary legal code that is going to be replaced. Suspending the enforcement of anything controversial while a new legal code is being researched and drawn up is a pretty reasonable proposition.
