In 1978, to impress his girlfriend, Richard Branson showed interest in Necker Island, listed at $6 million. He initially offered $100,000, which was declined. A year later, the owner accepted $180,000, and Branson purchased the island.

Just tripped and fell into a what-if scenario:

"What if Jonathan really had caught up to Dracula in Piccadilly and killed him in the street?"

Head lopped off. Kukri through the chest. The 'murder victim' turns to dust in full view of the gawking crowd. Then what? Then what??

Piccadilly Police: "So this man beheaded and impaled an aristocrat in the middle of the street."

Witnesses: "He did."

Piccadilly Police: "And the body..?"

Witnesses: "Crumbled into that pile of dust."

Piccadilly Police: "..."

Witnesses: "..."

Piccadilly Police: "...So has he named which magician he's working for or--?"

Witnesses: "No, he's just been busy kicking the dust into the horse dung piles in the gutter."

Of course, this is the best case scenario sillytimes version. Serious version? Jonathan only manages half of the process before some Good Samaritans tackle him; and likely get cut in the process. I bet he could chop Dracula's head off, but not manage the heart-piercing in time. He gets dragged off to jail. The Count's two pieces get taken to the morgue. And now Van Helsing, the Suitors, and Mina are all on a ticking deadline to stake Dracula's heart before sundown with Important Witnesses present to prove Jonathan's innocence and sanity in the slaying...

And if and when that happens?

That means the Drac Attack Pack are responsible for bringing the reality of vampires into the public awareness.

So.

Surprise, everyone!

Imagine the can of worms that would open around them, around the whole concept. Their original plan to head to Castle Dracula to end the Brides gets a LOT of extra tagalong company. Photographers are there. Ditto shady government sorts who, of course, are eager to investigate a way to turn vampirism into a benefit to the Crown. The Drac Attack Pack would be swamped with sensationalism. It'd be a circus.

Which all adds up to a belated understanding for me about just why Dracula had to get away from them in Piccadilly. If he had been caught and killed? God. What a mess it'd be.

As a African domestic worker in 1850s California, Mary Ellen Pleasant eavesdropped on her wealthy clients so that she could learn how to invest her money wisely. She later used this knowledge to build a real estate empire — which was worth over $30 million.

Pleasant put her investment profits to good use by purchasing businesses like laundries and boarding houses before building a real-estate portfolio. Before long, she owned shares in other businesses like restaurants, dairies, and a bank. It's believed that her white male business partner helped her acquire numerous investments under his name so that she wouldn't have to encounter as many issues as other aspiring. African businesswomen of the era. Pleasant soon became one of the wealthiest women in America, and she always tried to use her money for good, first by supporting antislavery causes and then later by fighting against racial discrimination. When it came to standing up for what she believed in, she once famously said, "I'd rather be a corpse than a coward."

we just discovered that the landlord of the apartment complex we recently moved out of somehow got all the negative reviews of the business scrubbed off google and bribed the CLEANER who cleaned our apartment after we left to leave its now sole 5-star review

certainly there is some kind of legal violation in doing this?

Apollo: I'm not taking another step, Dhurke!

Dhurke: Come on, now... Be reasonable...

Apollo: No! I'm done, and that's final.

Dhurke: I remember when you used to throw tantrums like this.

Apollo: W-Well, I'm not a child anymore!

Dhurke: There, there! It's okay. Daddy'll buy anything you want once we get home, son.

Apollo: (...I'd better quit while I still have some manhood left to salvage... But it doesn't seem like Dhurke's about to quit any time soon. Even still...)

hilarious interaction but dhurke's easy use of the word "daddy" (when he seemed taken aback by apollo flippantly calling him "pops" earlier) does make me wonder if apollo did, in fact, call him "daddy" (or the khura'inese equivalent) as a child and maybe the reason he switched to "dhurke" like we saw when dhurke promised to come back for him as a child (in the flashback thing) was because dhurke told him to? as in, like, he's sending apollo away for his safety. right. and 9-year-old apollo wouldn't be very safe if he saw dhurke on the news or something and went "that's my daddy!" because then he would've alerted everyone around him to the fact that he's the son of a criminal. so maybe right before he left apollo in america he had to sit him down and explain to him that it would be safer for apollo if he called him "dhurke" like an adult would (of course the safest option would be not mentioning dhurke at all, which IS the route apollo went down, but you know what i mean). or something. and then he just kept calling him "dhurke" as a way to create distance between them because he figured dhurke was never coming back and he was (understandably) bitter about it
