I was very young when I went to Madame Tussauds the first time and saw the Marat piece in the chamber of horrors. It stayed with me for a long time. I kept wondering why someone would take a bath covered in bedsheets.Fife wrote: ↑Sun Aug 19, 2018 7:35 amSpeaking again of Marat, even if you don't know him, you've surely seen the martyr porn piece of him stabbed in his tubby done right after his death, during the height of the Terror.
Sort of reminds me of the self-portrait the MSM paints of itself all day every day.

They probably thought they would get sick if they got wet. People still think they get sick from being in the rain. Idk

IIRC Marat had some kind of skin condition and sat around in a tub full of who knows what most all day, and did most of his writing sitting in the tub.
He was a regular OG on the outsourced masculinity tip. :goteam: :drunk:

I totally stole that from Musonius Rufus. I cannot take credit for the outsourced masculinity insight.
Rufus is one deep-thinking Tennessee boy.

Yesterday: Media freaks out when a few outlets don’t join their lockstep anti-Trump “defend the media” day.Fox News slammed for covering the killing of a college student more prominently than the convictions of 2 top Trump aides

Today: Media freaks out because FOXNews doesn’t run the Manafort/Cohen convictions prominently enough for their tastes.
...but they aren’t a collective of far left, radical, fake news, anti-Trump marxists or anything. They’re just a loose collection of truth telling “free press” that have mysteriously fallen victim to the same tyrannical hive-mind, or something.
