Sam Neill insisting on changing the Australian flag in Event Horizon, and the reasoning behind it, speaks to his character so well.
For those who don't know, the reason the flag on Weir's costume has the Aboriginal flag, not the Union flag, is because Sam said he hoped by 2047 we'd have changed it.

Ever wondered how antique chinese books get stored? Due to their fragile paper and thread binding, they are typically laid flat and stacked on top of each other.
So the books are placed into special cases or have wooden boards covering both ends for additional protection

My second Pathfinder group just dinged lvl 5 last night and one of the players is very interested in the "Summon fey" line of spells.
We had a good giggle when we realized that MOST of the summonables are some flavor of "Shitty little guy doing shitty little things" or "absolute toothy menace".

The vote failed on a 49-49 tie. Sheldon Whitehouse, a Democrat, was in Korea for an ocean conference. Mitch McConnell, who also supported the measure, also missed the vote.
Later today the Senate will vote on my bipartisan legislation to end Trump’s tariffs. This has a real chance of passing. I encourage everyone to make your voices heard with your Senators if you feel strongly about this issue. I’ll be working to get it across the finish line. More soon.

This is true: The Trump administration said it has imposed a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory, whose only inhabitants are the U.S. and U.K. service members at the military base on Diego Garcia.
Incredibly, this appears to be true. We tariffed our own (jointly operated with the UK) military base.
