I'm already chafed.

Then again, maybe there'll be discounts for partial nudity.

Even more vicious people will take their place.

Some of my White Whale movies that are either unavailable or way overpriced where I live:

  • Citizen X (not to be confused with "Malcolm X")
  • Basquiat
  • Downtown '81

Also, "Poser" was dropped from my streaming service very quickly and before I had a chance to watch it, and for many years, "7 Years in Tibet" was impossible to get by either streaming or hard copy. I used to think that it was due to Chinese influence, but maybe it was something far more mundane.

When I was little, I asked my parents why they don't smoke and they just laughed. I didn't understand why. Because 100% of the other adults I knew were smokers.

Because topless != nude in most of Europe. Hell, you can see topless women at pretty much any seashore when it's warm enough.

First they came for the nudes, and I did not speak out. Because I was not nude.

Fantastic work, especially the hairdos of Woejack and Tradwife are spot-on. Best meme I've seen in many months.

And maybe also familiarize themselves with the story of Ossietzky. For 6 years, he, Tucholsky and other authors tore the - then slowly rising - Nazi party a new one every week in their magazine. They found them part threatening, part hilarious, certainly completely unable to govern.
Well, the Nazis did eventually rise to power; Tucholsky had seen the writing on the wall and had gotten out of Germany, urging Ossietzky to do the same. He refused, was soon taken into custody and tortured. Arguably, at this point in time, this sort of blatant Nazi terror was still considered despicable. To lend him visibility and get him out of internment, an unprecedented campaign to award him the Nobel Peace Prize was started - and succeeded in 1936, the year of the Summer Olympics in Berlin. Alas, it was too late; he died after receiving it, still in custody.
(EDIT: in hindsight) Hitler's reaction was entirely predictable: He barred any German from accepting a Nobel Prize ever again.
