I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

the majority of camp followers weren't prostitutes - especially in the early modern period, a lot of them were the wives of soldiers who just went on campaign with their husbands, and brought the kids even. camp followers were critical for doing things like processing food and supplying meals, tending the sick or injured, or washing clothes. think of an early modern army as a whole city, mostly made of armed men who know how to fight, which has uprooted itself from one location and roams about the landscape doing violence. it's not exclusively soldiers, the whole family is there! camp followers often also participated in foraging, pillaging, and very light combat - an unlucky peasant may find themselves being threatened or tortured by armed camp women looking for food or loot

so yeah, mr. "women have periods and don't go to war" is pretty drat ahistoric compared to a wounded man at arms wallowing in the field who would be very surprised to learn how docile women are as a woman slips a knife under his armor to kill him so she can more easily loot the rings off his fingers

Well I have a two-fer...when I was a kid in the 60s my mother used that colloquialism for Brazil nuts. She saw absolutely nothing wrong with it. She supported the '64 Civil Rights Act & marched for Dr. King with her 3-kids down Broad Street in April '68 (which put a strain on her marriage. My mother evolved, but my father did not).

#2 was buying the delicious marshmallow treats, mohrenkopf, as a kid at kiosks in Zurich in the early 70s. I had no idea what the word meant, and although my mother became fluent in Schwiezerdeutsch I'm sure she didn't know it either.

Flash ahead to 1990 when they showed up at a local German purveyor & I went to pay for them & referred to them as I always had & the daughter of the owner literally recoiled. It was a few years before I learned. Mortified, I went to her and apologized.

It's odd how that stuff gets ingrained in our culture. Back in the 90s I had an adult black friend who didn't know what Brazil nuts were supposed to be called. Her entire life she, and everyone she knew, had only ever heard them called by the racist nickname.

I'd never heard that name so I looked up "slang for brazil nuts" and I lolled. Talk about making something sound unappetizing. Even without the racist component. Who wants to eat toes? Sickos, that's who.

Everyone knows they have two sets of ears, human ones and animal ones. Which ones they hear through is extremely selective based on 'plot'.
