Louise Blake-Michael (Risen Phoenix)Published 10 months ago in CritiqueIt's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Sunny name: dark show. This searing societal satire hilariously skewers issues big and small, from gun control and abortion rights to misunderstanding emojis and being shushed. Huge egos, short tempers, and hysterical situations make it an excellent sitcom; sharp, snappy writing and finger-on-the-pulse humour make it the longest-running in history.

The latest hit series is giving me whiplash. One minute it's a tear-jerking exposition on grief. The next, it's painfully overdone youthful banter.

William Saint ValPublished 10 months ago in CritiqueWar & Peace
The Russian word "mir" (peace) has another meaning - "world, society." While translating the novel's title as "War and Peace" is logical for juxtopposition, Tolstoy's main goal was to show how war affects the world. It is Natasha's love and life story in the context of war, peace, and society.
