The show I remember being praised for being the opposite was Netflix's Daredevil. The fighting sequences were well done and long lasting because people kept getting up instead of just lying there after taking a couple of kicks.

Funny idea would be a box of cat litter on the moon.

His wife already looks like a Barbie doll.

You're oversimplifying a bit. Lithuania stayed pagan for a long time because of many different interest groups, both foreign and domestic.

Lithuania conquered a lot of Orthodox Rus lands and the Rus feared that they will be forced to become Catholic, for example. Also, there were few strong Catholic states in the region that could make strong allies.

Poland made Lithuania convert to Catholicism by accepting their grand duke Jogaila to become their king (by marrying their princess Jadwig), thus making him de jure leader of both Poland and Lithuania. For the Polish, it was an attempt to reduce Austrian influence on their state.

I built a couple of lego sets I got for my birthday and started painting a lasercut airplane model I glued last week.

No, I wasn't. It took me 2 months to switch jobs. With unused vacation money, I got about 1 month's worth of my regular salary. The people who stayed didn't get their salaries for 3 months due to cash flow issues.

The side my country was on, was the middle. A short drive away from where I live now, there are two mass graves from 1940s. On one side, lie the Jewish people who were murdered by the Nazis. On the other, lie Lithuanian intelligentsia who opposed the Soviets.
