Tagging @verpaso and anyone else who wants to heart

for the record now that the public tide is changing and people can see the mask fall off of Israel, it shouldn't be forgotten that at the start of this, there was an open letter from Hollywood supporting is Israel

and when things do change, and history looks back on this as the genocidal massacre it was, these people will try to make you forget what they did and said. They will delete the Instagram posts with Israel's flag or try to spin it that they didn't know, but don't you dare forget this.

don't you LET these people forget that on October 12th, they told us they stood with Israel and for the attack on innocent Palestine lives:

On Comedy and Comedians

In recent years, there's been a lot of debate about comedy and comedians, and about whether specific comedians are funny. So I thought I'd put some of my thoughts down, these are of course only my subjective opinions. I'm sure there must be a well-researched book on this matter.

Comedy is a performing art

It's very audience-based, and comedians learn how to work their audience: selecting the right jokes, presenting them in the right order, using specific inflections to deliver the punchline etc. It's no wonder that when on tour, comedians add a few jokes to their routine that are about the specific location they're in. (For example, watch Katt Williams' opening monologue at a show in Jacksonville.)

So if you listen to a comedian and don't think they're particularly funny, the first question you should ask yourself is whether you're a part of the audience they're speaking to. There are a wide range of comics doing very different types of comedy: Jerry Seinfeld does observational, everyday humour; Sarah Silverman likes to shock and takes pauses for effect; Michelle Wolf does conversational, quick-paced bites; Dave Chapelle does bit-wise comedy where you have to remember the full set; Aries Spears is great at mimicry; Jeff Ross is great at roasts; the list goes on...

In addition, comics build on the artistry of others: Seinfeld developed his niche based on Cosby, Eddie Murphy took some bits from Richard Pryor. So if you do not like one comic, there are many more you could like. One might simply not be for you, it doesn't mean they are not funny.

Jokes can be mean

The only requirement for a joke is to be funny, it might be mean, maybe tone-deaf, maybe even ignorant, but it should be funny. It might be funny in ways people are ashamed to admit, but that's what comics play on - that's their entire reason for existing.

Comics do not do shows to make people mad. It's counter-intuitive for a comic to try to displease their audience, it makes no sense on their part. They gain absolutely nothing from doing that, and they've thought about their jokes long before they say it. So trust me, they're not trying to be mean when they say something mean, they're being funny.

I agree that there's a thin line though. It gets mean when they continuously punch down on the same person, but typically comics direct a one or two jokes at a person then move on. So it's always good to think about intent. For example, Chris Rock's GI Jane joke at the Oscars was funny and relevant. It was a joke about a movie to an audience celebrating film and it was delivered perfectly.

No subject is off limits

Off-limit subjects are antithetical to comedy as an art form. You can not have a subject that people are afraid to make jokes about. It defeats the whole purpose of comedy. If you're offended by a joke because it's insensitive to something you hold dear, it's important to consider if it could be funny to someone who has no idea how dear you hold the subject matter.

You might also want to think about why you're very offended by it, most times it has nothing to do with the comedian. And I say this as a Nigerian (scams are a popular joke) and a Catholic (take your pick) who stutters (I mean...).

You have to evaluate a comic's full set

Long before comics record their specials that appear on Netflix or HBO, they go on tour. They test each joke at comedy clubs and nights they MC, they adjust and fine-tune each joke, gauging the laughs they get and how people respond to them.

When they record their specials, the jokes are ready. They know how to deliver them, when to back off, and when to double down. They also know how the audience will respond. So when evaluating a special, you can't take one joke and analyze it, you have to analyze the whole body of work. You shouldn't see a clip online and judge it, it's a bit like listening to only one song off a musician's album and passing judgement on it. You're unlikely to know what they were trying to do.

So, how do you know a joke is funny?

Comics usually play up a scene from reality and deconstruct it. It might be something they've witnessed or something imagined, they might focus on the scene's actors, the characters behind the scene, or the scene itself. They might ponder on what the outcomes of the scene were or should've been.

Then, they have to select an aspect of the scene for comedic rendering. To do this, they employ some language devices: analogy, onomatopoeia, symbolism, etc, as well as some elocution strategies. They may enlist some audience participation.

The only test for whether a joke is funny is whether the devices employed fit the aspect of the scene selected. And it's a valence test, i.e., how funny was it, as opposed to a content test, i.e., was it funny or not. The difference between a published comic and your funny friend is that the former's jokes are typically of high valence and the latter's jokes are of low valence. Whether a joke needs to be explained has no impact on whether it's funny or not, but typically the higher the valence, the less explanation is needed.

Finally,

There is the chance that you're listening to someone who just isn't funny, but unless you're in a comedy club that takes on unknown comics still trying to hone their craft, it's very unlikely.

I also need to clear some stuff about boycotting again.

So whats boycotting?

withdraw from commercial or social relations with (a country, organization, or person) as a form of protest.

Why do we boycott certain things?

Let's take this Israel-Palestine conflict for example. In this one sided war, many nations, celebrities, famous brands are in support of Israel. This is not just saying "I stand beside Israel". They have a huge huge impact of this genocide.

***Many nations who support Israel are helping them in international congress. United Nation is helpless because the USA is in support of Israel. Those nations help with military support and supply war machines.

***useless celebrities, when they write a long post on social media sugar coating Israel may brain wash thousands. We all look upto celebrities right? There's been many proffs that Israel has been paying many celebrities to support them.

***famous brands: whether clothe brand of food brand, they have been supplying their product to Israel and of course they are being commissioned. For example Starbucks.

Now, why do we boycott?

Since boycotting is a form of protest, if you unfollow a certain celebrity or stop buying from a certain store they'd be forced not to support the wrong party. If they don't already support the right side, we might as well need to force it down their throat.

NOTE: IM NOT SPREADING HATRED TOWARDS ANY PARTICULAR NATION, CELEBRITY OR BRAND ( heck I am). BOYCOTTING DOESNT MEAN YOU HAVE TO HATE THEM. IGNORE THEY EXIST FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THEYLL COME AROUND.

Again. Dont boycott someone who didn't do anything. You should be sure about that person of brand being absolutely d***. So here's a list I made to help you guys out. It will work if we stand our ground.

Products:

Hp. Siemens. AXA( insurance) Puma. SodaStream. Ahava. Sabra. McDonalds. Apple. American eagle.

Celebrities (I'm sure half of them don't even know the full story, now they will)

Gal gadot. Dwayne johnson. Sonam kapoor. Kangana ranaut. Natalia portman. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Courtney cox. Justin beiber. Josh gad. Florence pugh. Liev Schreiber. Katy perry. Mark ruffalo. Jerry Seinfeld. LeBron james. Tom brady. U2. Guy oseary. Amy Schumer. Barbra Streisand. Amar’e Stoudemire. Sarah Silverman. Bar Refaeli. Ronen Rubinstein. Madonna. Floyd Mayweather. Andy cohen. Jamie lee. Debra messing. Sarah silverman. Kris jenner. Mindy kaling. Meghan McCain and many more

Nations: well you know them. I dont need to say it

INSIDE GRACE'S WARDROBE - BEN ZUCKERMAN III

Picture from the April 1955 Women's Home Companion, an article featuring Grace Kelly and how she is able to 'travel light'.

This is an ensemble, with a travel coat and suit, herringbone tweed, arrow straight, over a yarn-dyed worsted suit with easy skirt. Both from Ben Zuckerman. Miss Kelly will board the plane in those so it is not necessary to weigh them (as this article was giving hints on how to pack so as to avoid going over the 66 pound limit for international flights). The coat goes over everything in the wardrobe except an evening dress.

Ben Zuckerman was a favorite of Grace Kelly, she wore an ensemble by him when she arrived in Monaco to marry her prince. She also wore a suit from Zuckerman when she left New York to sail to Monaco and she also purchased a beige coat to wear during the week running up to her marriage.

Princess Grace was not the only royal fan of Ben Zuckerman. In 1964 the Duchess of Windsor attended a charity fashion show where a number of designers were showing their latest wares, including Mollie Parnis, Bill Blass, Pauline Trigere, Jerry Silverman and Ben Zuckerman. When Zuckerman sent out a lovely white cotton brocade evening suit, double-breasted with brass buttons, the Duchess cried out 'That is a lovely dress!'.

The Library of a Nuclear Physicist | Part 1 - Meet Jerry

Bonus: my cat is watching you.

A couple of years ago I lucked into a collection of books, scientific papers and journals, and college notebooks all belonging to the same nuclear engineer, Jerry Silverman. Ever since, I've wanted to share it with the world to help expand the understanding of nuclear science and nuclear and cold war history. This is the first video in a series touring the collection.

HI HELLO I SEE U IN MY INBOX -- @noctuafought

      i. Natasha has a photo in her phone that shows Sampo and Hook both, grinning at the camera as wide as they can and holding up a sign that says DAYS SINCE BAD BEHAVIOR: 01. yes, they both insisted to have it taken.

      ii. if you ever stored broken glass in some trashbags, Sampo has probably thrown you a curse or two while attempting to take a rest on some of the aforementioned trashbags, sat on the glass and jumped 34ft in the air with a sound that you can only find in Tom&Jerry.

      iii. the main reason why he's never at risk of having the Silvermane guards raid the apartment of Poisson to see if the madame has some wigs? simple! he stores each one in very incospicuous places. some of them are bagged and shoved under a floorboard that's also under the bed, another couple are in a secret little storing space above the fireplace, etc. usually out-in-the-open places that would be just glanced at and discarded as ''impossible''. this is why, after simulating a certaint degree of fear for the surprise visit, he invites the guards right in to check. of course a suspicious person wouldn't do that.

      iv. he very much likes that Seele and Bronya are spending a lot of time with eachother! mostly so the former isn't screaming in his ear as much as she can- ah, young love!

      v. he's a little bit of an expert in a lot of things, including potting plants.

I don’t think that there will ever be a time when big comedians of today (Chris Rock, Tiffany Haddish, Sarah Silverman, Melissa McCarthy, Dave Chappelle, Issa Rae, Kate McKinnon, Tig Notaro, etc.) will have comic books about them.
