Marcel Duchamp kicked the bucket 55 slutty, slutty years ago and you can't get him out of your head.
You're half as old as he is dead and you are worshiping at his altar, you are drinking his piss. He won.

Photos show typical toddler toys such as the table, wagon, and car, but now made with no colors.

Gloria Steinem on "white feminism", racism and why white women voted for Trump
The feminist leader says the feminist movement should be for everyone - but that we need to be prepared to have difficult conversations about race.

Alas! It is the 332nd anniversary of the death of Hishikawa Moronobu, known for his work in Edo-period Japan—but as far as I’m concerned most renowned for being the original artist of a work recreated in the 1840s and beloved on The Interwebs for some years now... 🧵
A section of a he-gassen scroll c.1846, depicting three men on one side and two on the other, all in various states of undress. One is holding his nose, another contorted on the floor, while three have dark jets of gas emerging from their arseholes. On the left, the gas is particularly large, and seems to have removed a man’s hat

In the 1930s, Titus Tart started a potato chip company, and of course he named it for himself.
