@tdwllms1 @GottaLaff someone else pointed out to me that the reason the song was banned, was there is no implied hate.
@hubick @BobWilliams @beaveinflow , with enough LSD, that's a unicorn.
@SurrealSeal @NaturaArtisMagistra @StillIRise1963 , I'm not familiar with that scent. I think skunk and horse shit in limited amounts reminds me of living on a farm.
@bkm and for the 1st time in memory. The shooter wasn't a young white conservative Christian male.
@StillIRise1963 @NaturaArtisMagistra well, I can't categorically deny being a fool...
@StillIRise1963 @NaturaArtisMagistra hopefully associated with more pleasant memories than not...
@NaturaArtisMagistra @StillIRise1963 I always use my real name... although on the bird I made it clear I am very much anti fascism, by adding that to my moniker.
@NaturaArtisMagistra @StillIRise1963 , no, it started me that I recoiled. Normally it doesn't bother me at all, any perfume scents that are not overpowering. It was proximity... just being that close made me jumpy. It bothered me at the time, and I JUST figured it out.
@Vsilverman @nytimes , the nation that modernizes mining in the region will benefit for centuries.
@Alice , my example of this is my grandparents convincing me I had an ancestor who was the captain of a Chinese submarine in WWII. I think I was about 13 when I figured out this wasn't true.
@NaturaArtisMagistra , art needs a combat element. And event names like 'broad swords and canvas.'
@StillIRise1963 I had one I saved years ago... last time I had this conversation. The picture was of a rather pert female butt in spandex, with a male hand grabbing one cheek. They were selling the spandex, I think. My guess was they were trying to get men to buy the pants for women.
@StillIRise1963 , I think it starts with Wilhelm Wundt and some of his students, most notably Walter Dill Scott. These guys figured out how to manipulate folks into buying desires, rather than needs. It's fascinating how easily we all fall for it. There is another name right on the tip of my tongue.... but it eludes me for now.
But yes, it is also ridiculous.
@StillIRise1963 , it's advertising. I can't remember the name of the guy who invented the concept, of creating desires for people, rather than meeting needs of the people. Let me hit google before going further...
@StillIRise1963 the same is true in many different formats. You will never drive you Kia on a race track, your perfume will never make the opposite sex swoon, and don't even think about emulating porn.
@bkm , my kind of dinner plans... I have a bottle of Kirkland tequila I'll bring.
@bkm if my pants weren't in the washer...
@cerealkella damn, my 1999 Dodge Caravan is worth 21 billion!
@w7voa and I call on all Israeli people to bring down their fascist government. It's time. End apartheid. Restore democracy. Respect human rights.
@lowqualityfacts they do have that perk, but recently the rules changed so they have to wait at least 15 mins to masturbate after patting down a child.
BS in Physics. Will not tolerate hate. I am active here and on Post.
