    WTF? You pulled pretty much this entire post, including leaving in the hyperlinks, from the Wiki. You know better than to do something like this without proper attribution. Kicked for a week - Plagiarism This a One Bite offense, you just had yours. Thread is also locked as fruit of a...

    Ha. Has his... paramour got an Anna and/or Cora to hand to help dispose of the body?

    in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    The yuppie left doesn't care about upwards mobility in practice. It's all lifestyle issues, and not even say helping LGBT ppl. Banning smoking and other stuff like what you've complained about in this thread plus getting to have cheap servants are their priority. I'm talking a specific type of...
  5. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    ITTL Nimoy and Kelley are always remining Shatner about this. Shatner won't win anything because of what he did to Cramer, even though he deserves to win things. After the TV movie Shatner is only able to get guest roles until Six Million Dollar Man. Cramer ensures that Shatner won't become a...

    Yes I meant there's equivalent of the P8 to replace the Nimrods.

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    No, that they most certainly will not. With 13 kids under his belt, one would certainly hope so! The family tree is... Complex.
  8. Keeping the British Liberal Party flag flying high

    Democrat plurality Senate, Social D plurality House, Republican Presidential administration. It’s a pragmatic centrist’s dream come true. Or an obstructionist nightmare. Also, though it is tempting to see Scoop Jackson as TTL Nixon due to getting the nomination a second but non-consecutive...

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    True, but folk back then, rich folk like Kings could and did live longer. Still I suspect this Henry VIII when he goes will have a secure succession, and leave, possibly, less of a controversial legacy as OTL Henry did.
  11. in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    I’m glad you put this out there, but I think I disagree on this one. I’m going to say, And . . Both. I want a job which has a real chance of middle class upward mobility or more, especially work which has some intrinsic interest and actually means something. And I want to be treated as a...

    in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    I'm not likely to luck into wealth anytime soon so it seems you'll get your wish, sadly. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan or Vietnam could be interesting to visit, though. For a country that supposedly prides itself on "freedom" the US is honestly worse than most of europe in nanny statism...

    WI no Deluge in Poland

    Real reforms like establishment of bureaucracy to collect taxes, improving the quantity and quality of the army, and perhaps even abolition of the veto (probably unlikely), will do more good for the country than trying to enforce hereditary succession, pissing off the all the middle nobility...

    I presume you mean a long range one, I mean there's the CASA 295 MPA in service.

    Good point. @CalBear lock the thread. This is ASB and probably a Mass Death Scenario if it was moved to ASB. Tanks Thanks in advance. (Here’s a cooler with salmon 🍣)

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Also, @The_Most_Happy and I have already planned Henry's family ITTL. He's having 13 children... But I am giving no hints as to their legitimacies and/or their mothers.
  19. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    I really want Henry to avoid those jousting accidents. One was pretty clearly responsible for those ferocious headaches he was reputed to have. And his erratic behavior in his later years might have been due to concussions. Also, some experts think those Jousting accidents might also be the...
  20. Why wasn't Runic script adopted more widely

    I think alot of it is just that Southern Europe around the Mediterranean just had so many more people and the institution (The Church) to push the Latin alphabet forward. If trading is to be done with the richer and more populous south then writing in the script similar to what is used with...
