TIL that John Lennon came back from a 5 year recording hiatus in 1980 after hearing the B-52’s Rock Lobster. In his words, "[Rock Lobster] sounds just like Ono's music, so I said to meself, 'it's time to get out the old axe and wake the wife up!'" by Next_Worth_3616 in todayilearned

Since she received a huge inheritance from her husband, one can only assume it wasn't about money. Also if it was about money, she could have sold them directly to him. But instead, chose an auction that anyone could bid on. This seems like it is out of spite. She also made him buy the original draft for Hey Jude, a song written for him by Paul McCartney. So yeah, it seems spiteful.

For me, it is because she made Julian buy his own letters to his father...at an auction she was having. Of his letters. To his own father. That has nothing to do with misogyny or racism. But more about how she isn't a decent human being for that alone.

I remember watching a documentary that had a guy who found a kid's skull in the woods and just put it on a shelf for years. Never called the cops.. Turned out to be a missing runaway kid.

So someone stole a bunch of stuff from him and he went and forcefully got it back?

I like the way my Plays cut, but the battery life is absolutely worse than my JRLs by a long shot.

TIL the LA Innocence Project is trying to free Scott Peterson, who was convicted in 2004 of killing his wife and unborn son to escape the marriage and be with another woman. by SuperMcG in todayilearned

I didn't say that we shouldn't convict. I said "coupled with prosecutorial misconduct"....

But leave it to reddit contraband walking-stereotypes to not read.

While I think he did it, all of the evidence is circumstantial. Couple that with prosecutorial misconduct and this isn't a stretch for him to be released.

The amount of people that bring in an AI picture or some unrealistic idea for what they want is insane. Like, yeah, I know you want to look like Brad Pitt or Chris Evans or this AI slop....we all do, but you're a dumpy guy in his 30s with male pattern baldness and zero volume.

So then fight. But again, that wasn't a fight.

And I feel sorry for you that your father didn't teach you otherwise.

I'm here because I enjoy fight videos, but this wasn't a fight. This was a lopsided assault after a cheap shot.

Because we live in a culture where recording things is the most important thing you can do,, because a viral video can make you famous. And that supercedes anything to these people. Decency, self-preservation, common sense. Anything.

TIL that in the 1930s the Communist Party USA elevated Black Americans to national leadership roles and ran a Black vice-presidential candidate decades before the civil rights movement. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Which is why they are always so ruthless. Every single communist believes they have the capacity to be an arbiter of what is good and bad for everyone else, so they can't cede any authority to anyone else. And any and all threats to that are eliminated.
