"3%" from Brazil and "Bon Appetit, Your Majesty" from South Korea exist in a shared universe in that they both know exactly what the game engine is that underlies their series premise and the writers deploy that game engine skillfully and elegantly in each episode (at least in the first few seasons of 3%).
I recommend both series to anyone interested in advanced episodic writing.

The caption on the FBI award photo said they responded to a “violent extremist militia group’s armed takeover” of the refuge and helped stage a traffic stop to arrest one of the militia’s leaders and key members who “planned to meet clandestinely outside the refuge.”
But the caption’s description of what occurred next doesn’t square with testimony and evidence presented during Astarita’s three-week trial.

I know these guys aren’t necessarily consistent, but I’m really not sure I understand the political calculation on this one.

After the presidential election, a leader of the Texas chapter of the Three Percenters, a militia group, reportedly wrote to Trump to offer manpower in enacting mass deportations. But ICE and other federal agencies are engaging in forceful action against immigrants backed by the state in a way that surpasses what the Oath Keepers or the Proud Boys could ever do. ICE agents, not far-right militias, are the ones who have smashed through car windows, thrown people into unmarked vans, and detained them indefinitely.

“Our timetable will achieve the stature of a natural phenomenon,” his father said. “A planet’s life is a vast, tightly interwoven fabric. Vegetation and animal changes will be determined at first by the raw physical forces we manipulate. As they establish themselves, though, our changes will become controlling influences in their own right—and we will have to deal with them, too. Keep in mind, though, that we need control only three per cent of the energy surface—only three per cent—to tip the entire structure over into our self-sustaining system.”

my main association with that place is that it was one of the spots where the klan (patriot prayer, proud boys, hate preachers, far right militias, etc) liked to hang out after their little klan rallies.
apologies if my eyes remain dry at its departure.
