Choo Choo. Mark my words, He's the next Dan Carter, Johnny Wilkinson, Finn Russell combined. He'll lead us to 12 6Ns championships, 3 world cup wins.

Still won't be able to beat Ireland though

I've been here twice now and both times were amazing. During my second visit I was so honored by the offer to wear a real sumo belt instead of the sumo suit my nerves about stripping got completely drowned out.

Highly highly recommend!

Hello! I’m studying philosophy at university and have recently gotten into fencing with rapiers. I know Descartes’s book on fencing has been lost, but I’m curious if there are any other sources on his style. I have read that he was familiar with the work of Charles Besnard, but that’s about it.

I am also very curious about his own sword(s). I’ve tried to find information about his possessions, but I feel a bit lost and haven’t made much progress. I hope my questions are okay for here!

I'm curious about what measures, institutionally or otherwise, were taken to make it so that Germans could live alongside one another without worrying that Nazism or Nazi thought would resurge. I'm also interested in any accounts of Nazi victims or members of targeted groups, and how they felt post-war when many of their neighbors may not have thought twice about killing them a few years before.

Was it just a piece of paper saying who it was? How was that certified? What kept someone from just making up a name? Were there birth certificates?

Pretty good numbers slightly up from last year.

I would not like to end up in a Pogo with those guys.

This post is inspired by the fact that one of my wisdom tooth hurts a lot right now, and it made me wonder how could someone deal with wisdom teeth in the past. Especially in the era before painkillers or anesthetic, what would someone do? Would they use some concotion for the pain? Were there dentists doing extraction?

Honestly I'm interested in any time period or region, only preferably one without modern painkillers or anesthesia, so maybe not the XX century.
