So I've ranked all 166 Iron Maiden studio-recorded, album released songs, and written blurbs for each of them. I'll post a few each day, until such point as I'm done. Here's the ground rules. 1) I'm including songs released on the remasters + Virus from Best of the Beast

Don't overthink the Trump admin's reasoning here. They don't have a grand scheme. They are willing to upend the international order because they think everyone else will be too scared to fuck with them. And whatever terrorist attacks this inspires against us will just help them electorally.

I feel like Trump is jealous of Obama for taking out Bin Laden. He wants his own heavily publicized victory against a monstrous enemy of the people who killed huge numbers of U.S. citizens.
More than oil or anything else he wants the optics of quickly and (for us) painlessly taking out an "enemy".

If Maduro is in custody my expectation is the admin will try to hold Dumb Nuremberg. They'll make it a judicial referendum on fentanyl and try to blame Maduro for the deaths from the opiate crisis.

just in case you were wondering if Danielle Smith was the first real POS Premier of Alberta
As Premier of Alberta, William "Bible Bill" Aberhart attempted to limit press freedoms, jailed a reporter and cut off the heat and power to the Lt. Governor's home.
When his constituents tried to recall him, he repealed the recall legislation.
This is his story.

Live hockey is among the S-tier of live sporting events. Just nonstop action
Experience it however you can

If you watched Heated Rivalry, and became more interested in hockey, and you live in the upper midwest or New England, I can't recommend Division 1 college hockey enough. It's cheaper than the pros, usually closer by, and there's pep bands and student section chants.

Here's my hottest, like nuclear, take.
Simpsons is mid. Always has been.
Yes even the good seasons. Yes even that one you really enjoy. Simpsons has had its mid-ness baked into the formula for so long it's inextricable now.

People trying to chain everything to Canon and Literalism is fucking strangling our culture to death. Even *superhero comics*, one of the worst examples of canon-obsession there is, can and will handwave floating timelines or a character suddenly looking different. We need to get over this shit.
