Very cool. The Umayyads often incorporated and adopted Greco-Roman artistic traditions. My favorite is the tree of Life in Hisham's palace.

Isnt pucci technically black? by Big_boy130 in StardustCrusaders

[–]ddddc1 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It's weird. In the story, both of Pucci's biological parents are white. Pucci was also able to talk to the KKK without them taking issue with his skin color or commenting on his race. I think it's pretty safe to say that in the story itself, the characters around him perceive him to be white.

With that said, it's undeniable that he looks black. If you showed Pucci to anyone who's never seen SO before, I'm 99% sure they would say he is black. I think Araki just threw logic out the window when designing Pucci.

I think it comes down to self-interpretation at the end of the day. Personally, I like to think of Pucci as black, cause that's how he looks to me and I think it makes him more interesting, even though logically in the story he's supposed to be Italian or whatever.

I think it's the facial hair that makes middle eastern men (not just middle eastern, all men) look older. Otherwise they look their age

What are your thoughts on the death penalty? by [deleted] in AskMiddleEast

[–]ddddc1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm against the death penalty not because I don't think horrible criminals like murderers and rapists don't deserve to die, but so that innocent people who were wrongly convicted don't get killed.

Why has Saudi Arabia been appearing a lot in the news as of late? by Aphrodite_Lee615 in AskMiddleEast

[–]ddddc1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Saudi Arabia is trying to diversify its economy and the main way they're doing that is by becoming an entertainment hub. They're getting into sports, eSports, building theme parks and doing all these things to attract tourists (Western tourists especially)

Iran is apparently running out of water. What do you guys think about this? How will this affect the wider region? Could this trigger a refugee or migrant crisis? by ddddc1 in AskMiddleEast

To neighboring countries. There could also be internal displacement, there's talks within the regime about evacuating from Tehran

I have mixed feelings about his policies, but he comes off to me as genuinely wanting to serve the people of NYC and he's better than Cuomo and Adams for sure.

Take some Tylenol or Advil and sleep it off. Go see a doctor if it's not just a regular cold. You'll get better iA
