Child nudity is much darker today. I'd like to have a look at Watterston's hard drive if he's still around. Last I heard he was doing the soulful white man with a guitar circuit around the country.
Raccoons will be the next to evolve as soon as they get opposable thumbs.
I was one of the five people on Earth who got the infamous "Cow Tools" Far Side cartoon. Cows don't have opposable thumbs, they have only one finger on each limb, so their tools would be crude and unusable.
It wasn't particularly funny or clever. I said, "heh" and went on to the next comic in the newspaper.
Tex-Mex wasn't made by "immigrants", it was made by Texans in a mockery of Mexican cuisine. Flour tortillas instead of corn, clunky white people flavors instead of the delicate layering of Mexican interior food, and NO seafood. Marisco is delightful!West coast or east?
For Chinese food, ask Chinese people. American chefs don't make Chinese food, they make this weird, overly sweet breaded crap that was popular in Canton and Fukien provinces 150 years ago.
These were copied by the thousand by Chinese gunsmiths in the Republic of China and warlord eras. An iconic arm of the age. Nobody knows Han Solo's stupid raygun, only the original.

I still have a Little Red Book I picked up long ago when there were stacks of them in every language at every tourist shop.
Beijing Foreign Languages Press (1966)
The first page:
WORKERS OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE!
I still get chills when I open that book.
100% of white "China critics" don't speak Mandarin but have found a cottage industry that demands content.
That laowhy loser who ran off and got locked out of the country, I like to go into his comments sometimes and ruthlessly mock him because he's not in China and I am.This makes my heart smile.
The CIA was just pissed because the CPC expelled foreign hate preachers and de-radicalized Uighurs, taught them work skills and found them jobs, like any good socialists.
The CIA was planning on using their base in Afghanistan to form them into an army to march on Beijing. If the CPC slaughtered them on the way, so much the better, much propaganda to be made from that too.
Foxit PDF reader. Free and old so no subscription bullshit. There's a nag screen if you use the print to PDF driver which is better than Microsoft's but that's it. Well worth it.
I must say, it is refreshing to have this out in the open for once.
