The gut punch was Gina Torres, and Zoe not being allowed to grieve and be with Wash.

I watched Serenity again a couple years ago, and it was just as harsh and abrupt as I remember it. It's a hard emotional jab at anyone who has ever loved a partner that's a part of their everyday life.

Depends on the origin, but a freshly fermented and dried whole bean from the farm is like light drugs. Your heart skips a beat, you inhale, you smile, and life gets noticeably better.

Thinking this through, they probably filled the car with gas until they couldn't breathe and then hit the firework mortar to set it all off. Also gives them a higher chance of ending it all then, as opposed to the "oops, all fire!" version, which would have been a lingering way to go.

There are reports of a firework mortar and gas canister in the back. Looks very intentional and showy from the video. Stupid way to end one's life, but that was part of it I think as well.

The Red Sea is actually just another rift valley along the same edge of the plate. It just filled in with water first.

A friend of mine went from a school in the US to a French school, and when she said there were 7 continents, everyone including the teacher made fun of her.

Dogmatism goes both ways.

We separate Europe, Asia, and Africa because the Ancient Greeks invented the boundaries and terms, and the Romans kept them up.

They lived in the area, so for them, these boundaries were just names given to land on either side of major bodies of water: the Nile, the Black Sea and Rioni river, and the Mediterranean.

They considered Egypt part of Asia for a while, and anything south of the Med as the landmass "Libya." The Romans kept up the same definitions as maps expanded, and just extrapolated from there.
