Arthur was born in 1863, if he had survived the tb he could have realistically lived into the 1950’s.
Imagine a very old Arthur, in his 80’s, watching a cowboy movie with his great grandkids and pointing out errors. After the movie he tells the kids some very watered down stories of his days as a gunslinger. This is surprising to the kids who’ve only ever known their grandpa to be a mild mannered artist. He has to show them his old gang pictures before they believe him.
Started watching this show Aoi Honoo again today. It’s still brilliant.^^
Kind of an important thing people seem to forget.
If you wanna make something you really should just make it.
Proof:
My favorite part about ONE is that despite his lack of ability to draw characters and backgrounds (a lack of ability which is rapidly going away. Look at early OPM vs. current Mob Psycho) he’s really good at perspective and the rules of like, motion.
So much so that before Mob Psycho (and possibly the Manga of OPM) people were under the impression he was intentionally drawing at that level to satirize the low-budget and sketchy art of popular shonen.
This is Susan Robinson, one of the last people in the country who can preform late term abortions after the murder of Dr. George Tiller. This is from an awesome documentary called After Tiller, about the last 4 late-term abortion practitioners in the country.
This documentary is so so powerful and also available on Netflix! I highly recommend it
Nearly 99% of all abortions in the US occur before 21 weeks. Of those that happen late in pregnancy, many are due to complex circumstances, including severe fetal anomalies.

“Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman told the crowd at Saturday’s Women’s March in downtown Los Angeles that she experienced what she calls “sexual terrorism” as a 13-year-old after the release of the film The Professional.
Portman described her pride and excitement in releasing the film, only to encounter sexually explicit messages both directed toward her and made about her.
”I excitedly opened my first fan mail to read a rape fantasy that a man had written me,” she recalled. “A countdown was started on my local radio show to my 18th birthday, euphemistically the date that I would be legal to sleep with. Movie reviewers talked about my budding breasts in reviews.”
The experience, she said, changed the way she expressed herself publicly, in order to limit the ways she could be objectified by others.
”I understood very quickly, even as a 13-year-old, that if I were to express myself sexually, I would feel unsafe,” she said. “And that men would feel entitled to discuss and objectify my body to my great discomfort. So I quickly adjusted my behavior. I rejected any role that even had a kissing scene and talked about that choice deliberately in interviews. I emphasized how bookish I was and how serious I was. And I cultivated an elegant way of dressing. I built a reputation for basically being prudish, conservative, nerdy, serious, in an attempt to feel that my body was safe and that my voice would be listened to.”
