#3 the craziest thing about the Farscape backstory is how Claudia Black was NOT the original choice to play Aeryn. The concept at first was that she'd be more like PK Tech Girl, both in appearance and character. Claudia was on set one day to audition for another role, Ben Browder saw her and said, no, THAT is Aeryn. The producers didn't agree at first, but he was adamant. Can't even imagine the show with anyone else as Aeryn.
I could literally spend days in there
or why he doesn't ask the Saudi navy for help with the Strait, since it's literally right there already?? There's 29 to 34 major warships built primarily for coastal defense and securing the oil shipping lanes, plus specialized minehunters, half of which are based in the Persian Gulf (Jubail).

Are they unaware that Spartan men were encouraged, even expected, to have male lovers?
I saw a video on Reddit where a guy was performing at a wedding (Indonesia maybe?) and part of the ritual dance was "stabbing" himself a few times with a ceremonial knife. He started looking unsteady on his feet and had to sit down. He'd pierced his heart, dead within minutes.
his staff have been complaining that it's "all Israel, all the time"

You look too good to be true
I'm sorry why is he wearing a naval officer's uniform with the rank of Commander?
there's something almost hypnotic about the top one.. in the Superman clip everyone's a little out of step, out of sync.. but with Luigi, they're all rising and falling in successive waves, from front to back, almost rhythmically and organic
