Of course they should. They should study whatever they like and suits them. What is the most important thing is to find guts to do what is really right, instead of working as a clerk and ruining their life with incompetence, instead of reading and doing what they really love. And maybe, someone just can invent a new working place for English professors, instead of complaints.

Learning foreign langauges confirmed a strange but weird fact: a speaker of a language is limited by the logic of the language in a way, and other factors, so, not understanding details of work or paying attention to different details does not mean a speaker is dumb or illiterate. Some great works from other cultures may seem dumb or naive, awkward or distant, but they certainly have value.

So, one of my favorite travel adventure books is The Places In Between, especially that dog part just about killed me. I’m worried if I read his other political stuff it will change how I feel about him. Also, will all that Brit politics hold any interest for Americans without having to Google every five pages? How readable for an audience outside the UK would this or his other books be? I sense this is a work aimed at a limited UK politicos?

I wish I'd learned how to play cricket when I was an exchange student at Oxford. It's always looked like fun. [Speaking of U.K. money, did you ever see the Tracey Ullman sketch where she plays Camilla shopping for an outfit, and when she goes to pay for it, she opens her wallet and starts counting out money saying, "One mother-in-law, two mother-in-law ... etc." LOL I love Tracey.]

There is a problem with intro. As a vlogger, you should promote some brands, so some pyjamas/type of sheets with a logo is expected, but you are not doing it. Some sleeping brand should be mentioned, it is about lifestyle (specific type, careless lifestyle where nothing bad can happen and there's no struggle about money). But it is truthful, in some cases it is about simple room of average/low payed guy with couple of elements carefully designed to humilate average viewer thinking they could never achieve designed perfect life or improve their lives by doing something they really love.

10:57 Redness and color palette are maybe appropriate for Bachus depiction and drunkeness, with this color palette of the book in the background and pronounced redness of your cheeks, if I am not mistaken, but some ideas about portraits and this color palette is a big no. Better suggestion with this color palette and such redness would be the beggars depiction, or depiction of beggars with books /of debts and bowls and similar symbols/ in a white background in front of the closed iron door. Don't bother thinking about it, I know this is a winning suggestion

12:46 about the paintings soon behind you, you did not achieve very much from designer stand point, it is not clear if they are samples of different sorts of metals/wood, if they are, they could be organized in a collection, so that they can be better analized or classified. If, however, they are placed there with intention and artistic purpose, you can simply place two black/blue dots in phrames and one in red. To make it look really excellent, you can even make/place four phrames with same sized, let's say blue dots and with third in a row in red color. There are lots of possibilites with this one, but it will make your paintings really stand out. It is the intention, the wall is plain white, obviously and if not ultramarine, some prussian or, most probably, cobalt blue would maybe look great combined with the color palette of your furniture. Of course, nuances do differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, some comparisons should be made, but do think it is the cobalt blue.

Trump's books do have something of value, he is obviously persuasive man, but his lack of political skills is obviously really his biggest flaw in eyes of the public, and arguably, his candidacy makes the election look like the joke, and that anyone without the real knowledge can be president of the USA, and this is obviously bad thing to do. I will not mention some of his views, because he has been already criticized for them, and that is different topic. We will see results, hopefully, the next president will lead his country the best way he can and make his voters happy and non-voters as much satisfied as they can be.

But history reading can help you informed, so, only thing it does influence is certain aspects of worldview, if I am not mistaken. I do understand why people do not like left and idea of left government, but some great ideas are on the left spectrum of political thought, and neglecting them is counter-productive. Not sure how much rebranding can help, but acknowledging important aspects of politics of the left can only help, from individual rights and minority rights to social security system etc.

The hatred about Trumps candidacy and presidency was surprising, but the obvious problem is his obvious lack of political skills. I do believe he has good intentions, but lack of skills is the most bothering thing, so, another candidate would probably be better choice, more conservative, more republican with strong political skills and more republican appearing. But it is up to them and republican party, not me. I do think Biden is not that bad, but he is just old, and that he really tries and does his best under difficult circumstances.

The Germany was not left to influences, or not abandoned, what happened was a consequence of many factors combined and many influences were basis for better acceptance of ideology in some circles. The probable mistake, if that can be called mistake, better to say flaw or mistake in judgment, is sort of failure of understanding Hitler's ideas and motives. There is better term for it, my English level is not good enough so that I can write/describe such nuance, however, the catastrophy happened. But it was not sudden, nor it is that simple and ahistorical as it seems, and yes, humans can become really evil in extreme conditions, but, I do not think all Germans or people in general, are evil by nature. This part of history is not simple at all, and soon before WWII, happened WWI and period after first war did left its mark on Europe.
