I’d had no idea this adaptation existed & from watching the clip not only is it creepy af but it seems like it might have been the secret ur-source of all creepy things for the next four decades (MJ being just one example)

Bob Fosse in Little Prince movie, 1974 had a massive influence on Michael Jackson.

@alexpotato @lefineder Right, it’s hard to explain, but it’s kind of unnerving to think that they were capable of talking as thoughtfully about these barbaric practices as we are today. And yet they still did them.
English
@lefineder An under-appreciated fact is that the Romans debated the pros and cons of their actions and cultural norms as much if not more than we do.

Another of the many misunderstandings of this movie, Cyclops are not supposed to be monster, they represent uncivilized people.
You don't reason with a monster and you don't expect a monster to follow sacred hospitality customs.
But it's ok, who cares, it's a fake story, it's just like Marvel according to some people

@Monocarp_ Rural Virginia has some of the most beautiful parts of the country. It's a blessing so few people know about it.

@GenericPlebeian @deercodeddoecel lol, yeah definitely the smart move to risk prosecution and jail time in order to hold onto a bunch of old illegal guns you don’t need
English
@deercodeddoecel I can only pray that, for every 1 retard who immediately has to tell everyone and the government about what they found, there are several people with working brains who don't say a word.

New Zealand man was testing out a metal detector for the first time when he came across a bag full of firearms and ammunition dating back to 1993

@DimSum744 True; especially when the main part of said woman’s job is to provide sexual pleasure to other men.

She apparently worked in “healthcare.” Nurses are demanded to cheat on their spouses; it’s basically a fundamental part of their job. More “respectable” than being a lady of the night in theory, but not in practice.

@xavierpilcrow @cursed_monk @punishedgarage I think you're right. If you imagine it being read like one of those AI narrators it's more obvious. It's the unnatural transitions ("one thing nobody told me about was the buns"). The lack of punctuation is just an attempt to make it seem human-written
English
@cursed_monk @punishedgarage It’s not the sentences look at how it’s laid out and builds on itself. That’s not how a young guy writes a Reddit post

@LynleyPaige @AuronMacintyre lol what are you talking about? So any woman whose husband is murdered is a fraud unless she traps herself in her home for years and lives as a hermit?
English
@AuronMacintyre Actually, women who've experienced the trauma of having their husband assassinated live in front of the world just 7 months prior wouldn't even be leaving their homes for fear of something like this happening, especially not a "mother." She's a terrible actress, & terrible person
English
This is actually how women respond to experiencing violence, especially if their husband was assassinated
Some men respond this way too but this is the default response for women
It’s incredibly normal and you need to be pretty far gone not to understand that

@graceyldn I've learned to just confidently say "No thank you" and keep walking. If they keep pressing you, just say "no thank you" again! There's nothing more they can do.

@FemCondition Maybe I’m stupid, but having trouble wrapping my head around what the scam is here. What would you be at risk of being blamed for doing?

Some cashier just tried to fall guy me.
The screen said -$80 but she owed me $4. I said hey, I'm going to need a receipt or proof I only got $4, because unless you plan on pocketing that $76 your till will be $76 over. So, I'm not going to take the hook for you pocketing $76.
She slammed things around but provided the receipt.

@CSHS63488504 @_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive And that argument doesn't make sense. It's a virus, the only way you can get it is if it's transmitted to you by another person. He's arguing that it's a sickness caused by drug abuse. That's disproved by cases of infants infected by blood transfusions.
English
@AmericanLizard @_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive Pretty sure his argument was that you can get aids without someone transmitting it

In case you’re wondering, yes - this is the first known European to die of AIDS.
1976 Live@50YearsAgoLive
Arne Vidar Røed, a Norwegian merchant marine, dies of a mysterious new virus that seemingly has no cure. He was 29. His eight-year-old daughter died of the same illness on January 4, and his wife is sick with it. Doctors are baffled and believe that Røed may have contracted the disease when, aged 15, his ship was docked in Cameroon in 1961. Røed also contracted gonorrhea on that trip.
English
@CSHS63488504 @_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive Of course, that's what I'm saying. The person I was replying to believes HIV is not a virus and you get it from drugs and poppers. I brought up infections from transfusions to disprove that.
English
@AmericanLizard @_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive Dude, obviously if you give infected blood to someone, they're going to get infected
English
@CSHS63488504 @_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive What about what I just said doesn't make sense?
English
English
@_Fenrir_7 @mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive Here's a study looking at 12 infants who received blood transfusions in the '80s from two donors with HIV. All 12 infants contracted HIV as well. How do you suppose they got it? They were all doing hard drugs?
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2956569/
English
@mica_dragon @25YearsAgoLive Am I denying AIDS? No, I'm challenging its cause, which is not a virus but rather chronic substance abuse and other toxic lifestyle choices. Virtually every AIDS-related death can be traced back to prolonged drug addiction, especially in communities where poppers are normalized.

Pennsylvania Ave near the Archives could have looked like this.
1964 plan: 10 tunnels underground. An 800×900 ft National Square. A monumental White House gate. Pennsylvania Avenue paved in brick.
MoMA exhibited the model. None of it was ever built.
