A Hellscape of Hatred...

BROUGHT TO YOU BY THAT MUSK ASSHOLE

It is worth noting here that this same troll, who has reportedly financed millions of dollars' worth of anti-immigrant vitriol online and on the airwaves, is himself a migrant from South Africa via Canada -- and has collected more money from government, both state and federal, than any 10 million working-class noncitizens.

SEEMS LIKE A COOL EVENT

“Baba Marta is a Bulgarian holiday that I fell in love with during my Peace Corps service there. March 1, you give everyone you know bracelets that they cannot take off until spring arrives, and they see a flowering tree. Then they hang their bracelet on the tree for good luck!”—Adrienne from New York City

If it gets you to the chocolate, I'm in.

These guys became more forgiving after being asked in the study to recall just two experiences that affirmed their manhood.

Interestingly, men asked to list 10 such instances struggled to remember that many and didn’t become more forgiving.—ML

the less likely they are to give someone a pass for botching a task, because they tend to view forgiveness as a feminine trait.

They also noticed that masculinity-concerned guys are more likely to retaliate against a coworker who makes a mistake.

MAGA ESSENCE

Fellas, is it unmanly to forgive a coworker? Researchers are trying to crack a correlation between men’s views on their own masculinity and their willingness to forgive colleagues’ mistakes.

In a study of 800+ people, UC Riverside researchers found that the more worried men are about appearing “manly,”

Dog people: Look away.

Tokyo’s Kagurazaka Bakeneko Festival is a cat parade that has taken place annually about two weeks before Halloween since 2010. It features real felines and people dressed as cats, but doesn’t include a haunting James Corden. If you don’t have a costume, fear not—there are makeup artists on hand, and you can always rent a cat kimono for ¥2,750 (~$18 USD).

IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW...

If you know CULVERS, then you know CONCRETE MIXERS.

And if you know CONCRETE MIXERS, you know Butterfingers mix well, I mean extremely well in the Mixer cup.

SO...

BUTTERFINGER 2.0: The only candy bar able to plaster itself to every single tooth will become even stickier. Parent company Ferrero said it will sell a limited-edition Butterfinger with a salted caramel coating instead of milk chocolate, the first flavor change to the candy in almost a decade.

ON this date in 1873 - A Hippodrome was opened in New York City by showman Phineus T. (P.T.) Barnum...

Bun Man and Mr. Purple were part of the act masquerading as clowns (You suspected another role?).

Actually, they tried out for the lion tamer job, but they couldn't get the knack of training the pussy ...................................................... cat.

@JolieSaboteuse Thanks Elle

ON this date in 1955 - "Day-O" was recorded by Harry Belafonte.

After working on the song w/ Bun Man and Mr. Purple, the line 'Come, Mister Tally Man, tally me banana' and the refrain (Daylight come and me wan' go home) came from the Boyz...

but Bun exclusively said 'Day, me say day O (Daylight come and me wan' go home) Day, me say day, me say day, Me say day, me say day, me say day'...

That hook ended up in Beetlejuice, say that name 3 times in a row this October and see what happens.

At Bun's committee hearing, he told Sen. Joe McCarthy to 'shove it' and then he walked...

Fitting defiance for the Un-American witch-hunting of the House Un-American Activities Committee.

ON this date in 1947 - Hollywood came under scrutiny as the House Un-American Activities Committee opened hearings into alleged Communist influence within the motion picture industry.

Famed producers Bun Man and Mr. Purple immediately came under intense scrutiny as the Boyz were famous for providing socially conscious films such as "Beat Me Daddy 8 to the Bar" and "Citizen Rage".

Mr. Purple, ever the quick witted, replied "Yes, the people tried to warn both major parties this year about their candidates and what did that get us?"

Bun Man closed saying "Warnings never work, only enforceable regulations work..."

And that is a stretch if we're talking major businesses...

2/2

ON this date in 1993 - Attorney General Janet Reno warned the TV industry to limit the violence in their programs.

Remembering this, Bun Man gave some history to Mr. Purple, "P, like most warnings, they go unheeded; voluntary actions to limit capitalism's profits never work, only money works."

PSA

TRYING THIS ON A WIDER AND MUCH MORE DIVERSE MUSICAL CROWD

Putting a Playlist together with songs that have a female background singer who during the song just kinda steals it, like Merry Clayton on the Stones ' Gimme Shelter or Ellen Foley on Meatloaf ' Paradise by the Dashboard Light...

So go ahead, put comments below for songs you think should be included...
