Not very prolific. Not very bright. But noticeable for reasons that have more to do with the world's fascination with French intellectualism than actual intellectualism.

97 Jean Cocteau was a French poet, playwright, novelist, designer, film director, visual artist and critic. He was one of the foremost artists of the surrealist, avant-garde, and Dadaist movements and an influential figure in early 20th-century art. The National Observer suggested that, "of the artistic generation whose daring gave birth to Twentieth Century Art, Cocteau came closest to being a Renaissance man.". . .

98 Renoir’s grandson , Claude Renoir, was the famous French director.

Posted by: Sebastian Melmoth at December 10, 2024 09:46 AM (D6PGr)

99 During the Nazi occupation of France, he was in a "round-table" of French and German intellectuals who met at the Georges V Hotel in Paris, [...] In his diary, Cocteau accused France of disrespect towards Hitler and speculated on the Führer's sexuality. Cocteau effusively praised Breker's sculptures in an article entitled 'Salut à Breker' published in 1942. This piece caused him to be arraigned on charges of collaboration after the war, though he was cleared of any wrongdoing

Sounds like he wasn't a NAZI supporter but just wasn't very bright either.

I suppose this must be a painting of a man? "Jean" is the French equivalent of "John." If the subject were female, it'd be "Jeanne" Cocteau. Plus, you know, Cocteau was famous.

117 The White Paper (French: Le Livre blanc, alternatively The White Book) is a 1928 French novel by Jean Cocteau. It is a pederastic semi-autobiographical novel about Cocteau's life, and centers on an unnamed protagonist developing his sexual identity by having sex with men and watching men have sex with each other. Cocteau never placed his name on the book, but he provided illustrations for some of its editions.

119 The artwork...
This is just odd. The perspective seems off like the artist must have been standing on a ladder. I like the colors. The subject of the painting is meh. He ain't peak Burt Reynolds but who, other than Burt, is? He isn't depicted as repulsive either. Objects that are obviously sitting on tables appear to hover above or near the table.

Overall impression of this work....
Meh. Colorfully odd is still odd.

205 One thing I learned riding motorcycles is nobody sees you.

I notice a lot of people like to hide in your blind spot. I tend to memorize the cars around me on the highway if traffic isn't too heavy and I don't know how often someone "disappears" and if I start hunting in my blind spot they are just sitting there...

An anti-vaxxer nurse who injected up to 8,600 elderly people with saline solution instead of a Covid-19 vaccine has walked free from court.

Red Cross nurse Antje T, 39, jabbed thousands of elderly patients at a vaccine centre in Germany with what she told them was the BioNTech Pfizer vaccine but was just a saltwater solution.

307 The case is over. Penny got away with killing him. Neely was just crying out he was hungry, not threatening to assault someone. White, male privilege, and it smacks of racism to me.

Penny caused the death of an unarmed person who had touched no one. We're not in the jungle. A person who caused another person's death should not go unpunished.

New Yorkers know the rules upon encountring a crazy person on the subway, which is why people aren't killed every day and Neely wasn't a real threat.

First of all, never make eye contact with them so they don't zero in on you. Second, move to the far end of the subway car because they usually smell. One does not engage with them, especially touching someone who has not touched you. Apparently ex-Marine Penny, obviously not a NYer, did not know the rules.

So, violation of unwritten subway rules by non-NY'ers should lead to imprisonment? Gotcha.

The only diffence between Penny, Rittenhouse and Zimmerman is that Penny is viewed as a sympathetic figure, not menacing like the other two. He chokd a man half to death, who died because of his actions, and got off.

I've mentioned this story before but I know a guy from Jordan who told me about his cousin. The cousin got into Europe as a "refugee". He went to Sweden where they gave him a free apartment and a stipend. He moved in with a Swedish woman and rented out the apartment.

He eventually went back to Jordan to get married and the Swedish girlfriend found out and dumped him. But...not long after he found an Italian girlfriend who is ok with him having a wife back in Jordan, so he moved in with her. He still has the stipend from Sweden. He still rents the Swedish apartment out. This gives him enough to live off of and travel back home and give money to his wife there.

But remember...he's a refugee...

Long, luxurious, shiny, silky hair is a pretty good sign of health for a woman.

Buuuuut, like beards for men it's also an easy way to hide defects like an asymmetrical face or wacky ears or scars, moles whatever.

Whereas to successfully carry off a short cut as a woman, you've got to pretty much have a beautiful perfectly symmetrical face. Also a great sign of reproductive fitness.

Short hair on old ladies is different and generally signals a surrender to time.

I heard Bongino talking about this yesterday, saying the reason it was possible for the jury to find him not guilty is because every one of them has had their horror experience on the subway.

As was noted the other day, the "holdout" on the jury was almost certainly the lone person who wanted guilty, and when the judge tossed the more serious charge, by Monday morning that person knew there was no way the other 11 were going to cave.

"He had it coming" is a concept that needs more room to breathe in this country.

366 >>>I heard Bongino talking about this yesterday, saying the reason it was possible for the jury to find him not guilty is because every one of them has had their horror experience on the subway.

Scott Pressler said on social media he credits Trump's win for the not guilty ruling, that it created a climate in which they felt it was safe to do so. Maybe. But I think all of them imagining this nightmare scenario, and realizing what it means if we lock up all the good samaritans, also was a huge factor.

367 A crazy old (looked like mid-60s) homeless man that smelled entirely of feces kept trying to start problems with me.

I don't know why he chose me, of all people.

I had one case on a subway where there was most Neely type singing and dancing for tips. He wasn't particularly good.

Then the crazy hit and he looked lost as to where he was. He walked over to me and started trying to ask me why I started WWIII and didn't I feel bad about killing all those people...

I was studiously pretending to ignore him and wondering how the fight would start...

And then he again stopped, looked confused, saw his bucket and went back over and started singing and dancing again

I've long suspected a directive, back when I cared, from the NFL that the announcer(s) must fill every solitary second with words. It's nauseating. You get no atmosphere just bs.

387 Had a man of lesser pallor in the drug store some years back get loud about not being treated right, at no one in particular.

Then he started shouting at the top of his lungs:

"I been through the world and I been through the woods

And I seen the world, and it ain't no good!"

And I thought ok motherfucker I'm headed for the exit.

389 What if you're singled out and accosted by the nutcase? What are the "rules" then?

Wasn't on the subway but when I was in college. Homeless dude asking for spare change (College students are not the best target demographic for money but whatever.). I politely said I didn't have anything and went on.

He grabbed my wrist and said "Hey come on. Anything you can spare."

I locked eyes with him and growled "Brother, I thought I just told you I don't have any change."

Man let go of me and moved away quickly. To say I am unsympathetic towards a lot of the homeless is a bit of an understatement.

In Spanish it is called the "i griega" the Greek I, and I suspect it came in from Latin transcribing Greek loanwords.

I adore this attitude, it is both racist and blind. A recent study found that attitudes of people who have been "educated" on white male privilege don't alter their views of minorities or women, but they do worsen the views of poor and disadvantaged white men, "since they can't even leverage their privilege and must just be degenerate and lazy"
