Some Guy TT posted:hoteps seem more like premodern history unless the skull shape of the sphinx was influenced by napoleon using a cannon on its nose That’s an urban legend. There’s evidence that the nose was gone for centuries before Napoleon. It probably just fell off some time in the late classical era.

Feral Integral posted:I remember Richard Feynman was all squirrelly about the subject..maybe it was that Mr Feynman book. From that he seemed to be racked with guilt about the fact that it would be used on humans in Japan. But there is no mention of the test sites. I wonder if this usually honest, if not blunt genius was too racked to mention this or if he was so propagandized as to be oblivious to this obvious conclusion of testing on populated islands leading to forced removal and complete contamination of peoples home country. Castle Bravo was during the mid 1950s. Feynman quit working on nuclear weapons after WWII ended, if I remember right, and all of the testing for the Manhattan Project weapons was conducted in the US.

Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:Never forget that the US Congress did hearings wondering if Hollywood was making movies that were too anti-Nazi, in 1941 I read an account of the HUAC hearings and the red scare where one of the common accusations against people who were black listed was that they were "prematurely antifascist."
