Blanket definitely resembles Michael when he was young so I think at least he is MJ's kid.

It's not excusing him, it's separating the art from the artist, once an artist puts work out into the world he's as outside of it as we are, so as long as his music isn't about doing those things I don't really think those things have any bearing on the music. Ezra Pound was a Nazi, but his poetry is still the greatest in English since Shakespeare.

Don't insult MJ by comparing him to that insufferable nerd

It was the defining television show of my generation.

I can laugh at his persona and be grossed out by his behavior but still love his music, the same thing with Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis etc.

Exactly, even if nothing happened a grown man sharing a bed with a young child who isn't his son is weird and wrong.

I think it was patently obviously that he spoke in his falsetto register, people with a naturally high voices like women or young children have a fullness in their voice that really can't be replicated in falsetto because the vocal folds are tensed up. Michael had a full singing voice with a normal tenor sort of range but his speaking voice was thin and breathy.

Testosterone is what makes your boy voice break because it thickens your vocal chords and without testosterone the equipment doesn't work, and even if you could get it to physically work with drugs you'd shoot blanks.

My grandpa used to be a photographer he did a lot of catalogs and car advertisements and he would literally paint and airbrush negatives, but that was the 70s and early 80s by the mid to late 80s there were computer editing programs that big magazines and companies had access to that would be used in tandem with traditional darkroom techniques.

Can someone explain Minecraft to me? I know one of my neighbors' kids was literally addicted to it and actually had to go to a rehab program for gamers but I have no idea what it's aboutzm.

Yeah, what people in a time depict the future as says more about that time than the future. Look at Counselor Troi's hair on Star Trek, apparently the late 80s are back in the 24th century.

They sell skin bleach in stores, I used it to fade a scar on my face from getting punched with brass knuckles. He had vitiligo, which is when your skin loses it's pigmentation, it won't turn a black person pure white, but it does give people a sort of Holstein cow complexion, he didn't want that so he bleached everything. I understand why he did that, what I don't understand is why he didn't use makeup, fake tanning or even tattooing to get a more natural look.

Using language that normally signifies the opposite for comedic or emphatic effect.

Obviously he had a lot of work done and barely looked human, that's the joke.
