When Salvador Dalí Created a Chilling Anti-Venereal Disease Poster During World War II
As a New York City subway rider, I am constantly exposed to public health posters. More often than not these feature a photo of a wholesome-looking teen whose sober expression is meant to convey hindsight regret at having taken up drugs, dropped out …OC (Openculture.com)

A short video about @Dima and how he started to realize what matters...for him, for others. Why fame feels empty, and why helping others, the nature and such, is so important.
Great job Dima! Keep up the great work!

What are ‘sweatpant jeans’? I tried the comfy trend that’s all over the internet
Just in case you were wondering:
Now that sweatpant jeans are on the scene, your next favorite pair of denim might not actually be denim at all. Sweatpant jeans are a fashion hybrid that combine all the comfort and the soft feel of sweatpants with the look of regular denim. According to stylist Katie Schuppler, sweatpant jeans are typically made with a terrycloth fabric that’s printed and dyed to look like denim. Essentially, they’re an optical illusion.

Linkse partijen al heel lang: we moeten minder afhankelijk worden van dubieuze regimes!
De VVD nu: ,,We hebben te lang onze kop in het zand gestoken voor de realiteit”, zegt VVD-Kamerlid Silvio Erkens. ,,Poetin, Trump en landen in het Midden-Oosten hebben nu te veel grip op onze energierekening.”
NIks, 'we', pik, jullie. Niet wij.
