I was a bit late on deleting those posts, but removed the whole discussion. 👍🏾 May be a small consolation, but she is pretty without makeup.

Its kindof funny that people still refer to Lemmy as a pioneer of speed metal when he always said that they weren't speed metal, but punk

Oh yes, I've seen many times both Van Halen and Led Zeppelin to be classified as Metal... Which they definitely aren't; as you say, what they are is Hard Rock. There's too much Blues and Rock n' Roll in their music for it to be Metal.
And about Black Sabbath, I actually have troubles considering their first era as Heavy Metal, though all the foundations are there. Once Dio came in I think they can be classified as such, but as for Ozzy's time I feel more comfortable calling it Hard Rock too, even though it gets really heavy. Again, there's a lot of Blues still in there. -
The Blues was definitely huge with those early English bands. Strangely enough, Marlilyn Manson had some Blues on his recent album
. Another hotly debated one is whether 'Helter Skelter" is metal or not. My general idea though is the Shakespeare saying, 'a rose by any other name...' One I'm not sure about is Kansas and Foreigner though. Obviously not metal and no one would say they were, but they seem to hard for soft rock too. I'm thinking Kansas may be on the progressive end and Foreigner seems like Hard Rock early on and went as far as pop at some point.

Oh I'm mostly ignorant about Marilyn Manson. I've listened very little of his music
About Helter Skelter I definitely don't call it Metal, though it is indeed a pioneer song that one of the genre's founding stones. But to me is Hard Rock.
And I don't how to call Kansas and Foreigner either lol. Kansas is definitely more close to progressive, but I always found Foreigner to be so dull Kinda Hard Rock-wannabe but too soft in the end, and way too pop for my liking.

Your community reputation is up to good standing.

In all of your research and to your knowledge, have you ever heard of any ancient civilization who thought that people from other countries, with other cultures that spoke different languages were the same people based on skin color? I haven't found one.
-
It's less common to find instances in ancient civilizations where people solely thought others from different cultures, who spoke different languages, were the same based purely on skin color. Ancient societies often had more nuanced and complex views of people from various regions, even if they did sometimes use physical characteristics as part of their categorizations. While there might not be a perfect example that exactly matches the criteria you mentioned, there were certainly cases of oversimplification and misunderstanding due to limited interactions and information.
-
I'm starting to think that ancient civilizations are not given enough credit. Even looking at the Saxon wars, I don't think they considered the Danes to be the same people whereas many today would say they are both white, so of course they are the same. I also feel like a distinct culture from say a Nigerian and a 5th generation white person from Alabama is alien to a 5th generation Russian and so on.
-
Absolutely! Ancient civilizations tend to get boiled down to simple ideas, but in reality, they were more complex than we give them credit for. Take your example of the Saxon wars. It's unlikely that they saw the Danes as the same just because they both had light skin. Nowadays, it's easy to think that skin color is the only factor, but that's not how people then or even now really see it. Ancient societies didn't have the same rigid ideas about race that we do today. They had their own ways of understanding differences among people, which were much more flexible.

Do you like fish tacos by any chance?
-
-
I've been investigating different recipes lately because I have more carp than I know what to do with
. After giving so much away, there is still a lot left over. Its invasive and literally jumps out of the water. I quickly learned that fish tacos are their own thing though and I need to see what works for them.

How do you think Megan Fox would have done in "Best Eyes" in her prime?

I don't need a holiday to rock out to this.

I know I'm not the only one here that thinks that one-legged chick is sexy. Not because of the one leg of course.

Two things I don't hear people giving social media enough credit for. One, if you say that you've dated someone that looks better than a model/actress you criticize, it gives you proof. Two, if you dare say that a random woman looks as good as a model/actress, you have proof of that too.

The Democrats started the KKK. Obama deported more Mexicans. The Republicans gave women the right to vote. Just saying.

Mexican model Daniella Cosio is the one in my set. :D

I don't keep up with the news because most of it is fake, but are they really trying to impeach the only president that doesn't sound like a used car salesman???!!!

You can't receive messages, so I nominate Dasha Dereviankina (last name copy and pasted
) and Danielle Herrington if you meant who wasn't already in this last one.

Veganism was created and is funded to lower the sex drive/reduce fertility/population control. The most animals die in crop production.
But Luma Grothe sounds like the name of a tumor.

I guess since you gave a 1, you won't be offended by me saying that Julie Henderson (face) looks similar to John Travolta with a blond wig.

I know an inbred trailer woman who puts firecrackers in her ass that could be Frida Aasen's twin.

I just heard "Stargazer" for the first time
