Thinking about getting a physical or digital one for myself and the kids.

When I was little, my maternal grandfather bought an old (1946) set of the Encyclopedia Brittanica in a nice wooden case for me and my siblings.

In spite of being old, it was extremely good. I spent tons of time just flipping through it when I was bored.

I bet there are lots of old encyclopedia sets for sale cheap at Good Will and similar thrift shops.

"Great Soviet Encyclopedia"

I used to read that back at school. Very objective in science giving credit where credit is due, but unbelievable bias in politics and economics.

I see what you did there.

That alludes to the conception of Justin Castro Trudeau. Remember - Carribean cruise, one stop deliberately not entered in the log, etc.

Mom was a psycho nymphomaniac KommieKunt groupie, fake-Daddy was a homo pedo perv, real Daddy was a brutal psychopathic Communist dictator, and I killed my brother (or more likely human sacrifice to Satan). What could possibly go wrong?
