They killed him because he was a Catholic who believed he ruled under the divinity of God. Nothing to do with jews. There weren't any jews in England at that time.
It's a good read. You have to read through more than 300 pages till the action takes place in Port Jackson, but it's interesting from a convict POV. I'm not past the 500 page mark (the whole thing is nearly 900 pages long.)
I don't think they teach kids about the privations and brutality convicts faced (even the marines were treated harshly). Even when I was at school the main focus was on Aboriginals rather than the hardships convicts and early settlers faced.
McCullough's series of Roman novels has good reviews - I think I've got her Caesar one in the bundle of second hand books I picked up before Christmas.
She got herself into hot water on her views on Pitcairn Island "culture" (very related to your post) -
I'm reading Morgan's Run by Colleen McCullough. Her husband was a descendant of one of the Bounty mutineers. She herself lived in Norfolk Island (once a penal colony where the worst of convicts were sent).
Tourist can visit the Pitcairns but you can only get there by boat.
Being so remote, isolated and inbred, it's not surprising the place is fucked up.

Might as well have another outbreak of conflict to join the fun.
What's dumb about it? You think men can become women? Trump isn't a Democrat? Never heard of the Great Gay schism of how the gays want to chop off all the alphabet after LGB?

Irish politicians are no better. Probably even worse than Conor McGregor.

I prefer my nails short-ish. Those shellac things are hideous.

I really hate long nails. They are a hindrance, especially typing. Can also damage your eye when you are trying to get your hair did.
That said, I enjoy going to nail salons myself to get my nails did. I don't have those long claw things though. Yuck.

Doesn't matter - this earthquake also did some damage in Thailand as well, so both Siam and Burma were affected.

It is impossible to have a conversation with him. It starts off well then in the next comment he'll call you an autistic kike incel.
He's not worth bothering with, though sometimes he posts interesting stuff.

Not only that, Japan was the victor in the Russo-Japanese war. That's still gotta smart.
