i just learned that it's also john woo's (80th) birthday. i watched and enjoyed a number of his movies as a teen and in my twenties and read not too long ago that "the umbrellas of cherbourg" is one of his favorite movies which makes more sense the more you think about it

Today I celebrate an event that happened 250 years ago…. Pallas cats were first documented by German naturalist Peter Pallas in 1776. These little guys live in the Himalayas and survived the ice age! I’m not sure though if fireworks are an appropriate way to celebrate this event….

Most people rejected his message. They hated Freud because he told them the truth.

an excerpt from Elizabeth Roudinesco's "Freud in His Time and Ours (Catherine Porter, trans.) It reads "At times, Freud was unable to repress an unjustified but ferocious anti-Americanism, so that he would declare, for example, that his disciples from across the Atlantic were good for nothing but bringing him dollars. Once he declared before a stunned interlocutor that the Statue of Liberty could be replaced “by a monkey holding up a Bible.” On another occasion he asserted before one of his students who was in analysis with him
that the Americans were so stupid that their mode of thinking could be reduced to a ridiculous syllogism: “You Americans are like this: garlic’s good; chocolate’s good— let’s put a little garlic on chocolate and eat it!”
