So 2B or not 2B? That is the question?

It's the same for a lot of art scenes, and I don't know why.

I have been in theater off and on for years. It is weird how often theater kids are pointed in that direction and how effective it is.

I've seen a lot of articles about tariffs. The same people who were experts in virology, then 3rd party submarines, then anything else that happened, are now economics professors of high standing.

It was. But during the 90's, it wasn't.

Had a wonderful conversation about Kefab and politics with a coworker yesterday. He asked how much of this will be remembered in history, and I pointed out he doesn't know what the Teapot Dome was.

Reminds me of the whitehouse.com thing back in the day.

I think they should be publicly disproven so hard that academic funding goes to their replacement

Have them declare war. Give them robots to assassinate each other with. Stand back and watch.

My lefty friends call it 'Vote Red? Get blue balls' attack. All of them are in a monogamous relationship or none at all.

I have friends saying the houses were lit on fire by Chinese space lasers, because they need to go beyond the actual insanity. The world is weird.

Ever been jealous of a meltdown? I mean, I would love to get that when I'm in a bad mood.

I liken it more to Professional Wrestling.

It's an interesting subject. I did a study on Kabuki last year. Lots of fun. It was more lively than the traditional Noh, which the upperclass preferred. Noh was much slower, it could take a while to cross to the other side of the stage.

Kabuki began with women, who were then offered up at the end of the show. The Shogun demanded they only have men after that.

Great characters like Goemon were entirely told by Kabuki. The scrolls were showing the actors, which then became the videogame series.

Kabuki also influenced TV and movies in Japan. All that over acting in kids shows is from the theater.

Movies and TV shows in the US had a similar thing. The Marx Bros -fellow Germans by the way-, 3 stooges, Laurel and Hardy and more were theater acts for the lowest common denominator. Dracula, Frankenstein and other monsters were stage plays based on the books.

Things like operas and great theater were not shown. The upper class did not want them involved with such riff Raff.

Throughout the study I thought about technology, and other things that moved forward. In the Bible it talks about how a rich man had a dinner and none of his well to do friends came to it. So he grabbed the robber and underclass, then demanded they wear fine clothing. Christ used it as an allegory for something else, but I couldn't help thinking about how true it was in these cases. Our society is led by the whores and miscreants, because the upper class don't want to be involved.

This is why so many jobs were men only after a spiritual or structural cleansing among the artisans. Too many whores.
