I genuinely find "conventionally attractive" people (like celebrities), well, kind of ugly IMO.

Not unusual to find people attractive based on your own level of exposure. So if you're not constantly exposed to celebrity media, you're unlikely to find the exaggerated proportions of celebrities as appealing as features of close family and friends.

Che Guevara though, Che Guevara was hot.

Young people are regularly hot. That's not a surprise.

An interesting hypothesis.

I was vamped by a girl, and I liked it.

There's definitely plenty of evidence of conspiracy theory as a method of social destabilization. And there's evidence that the CIA uses every tool to destabilize enemy states and organizations.

But you run into some contradictions when you try to blindly assert that any given conspiracy is a CIA conspiracy.

If nothing else, you've got to account for the FBI

Was there anything that prompted the push to strike? Or did you just try to certify as a union and get rebuffed?

Perhaps? But also helicopters are notoriously unreliable and difficult to pilot, particularly the high manueverability combat models.

The Navy Seals that came after OBL famously crashed two helicopters on the way in.

Modern cruise liners are already significantly larger than the Titanic to was when it launched.

Why not just buy one from Royal Caribbean or something?

that annoying thing from BNHA where they spend like half an entire season going into excruciating detail about some little training exercise with mild competitive elements that every single member of a huge cast is participating in

It gets a bit combat heavy and the cast inflates a lot. I would not have minded if they had more big time jumps and granular story telling.

But I'm enjoying the training arc if for no other reason than it's an opportunity to do a bit more world and history building. It's no longer just The Frieren Show.

I liked the arc with the demons for a similar reason. And I'm hoping we'll see it get back into a more dramatic pacing as they move on.

Some clever entrepreneurial software types could definitely have fun with this

If this was George Bush Jr selling Bibles, he'd have been hailed as a fundraising genius and a True Patriot.
