#8 '90s Kids thought Ed, Edd, & Eddie's obsession with jawbreakers was just a gag. Millennials, I present to you your GenX parents trying to retrieve a dropped jawbreaker.
The last half of the 20th century really hit some high water marks on uncanny Valley and weird shit in general. I believe between 1950 and 2000 was the high point of human creativity/obserdity and engenuity. All around peak of coolness and novelty.
Not a gun guy, just a fan of WWII movies like, Where Eagles Dare and Guns of Navarone. Richard Burton or Gregory Peck was always pointing a Luger at some Nazi.
I lived there. This is just the chapel of the old people's home St. hildegardid (now closed). Interestingly, this chapel is right next to the church of St. Matthew with a similar architecture (search St. Matthäus düsseldorf Garath). Churches, old people's homes and associated residential buildings (I lived in one of these houses as a child for over ten years) are as if they were made of one piece, both outside and inside.

I love brutalist architecture. Growing up in a village filled with buildings that were hundreds of years old these giant concrete edifices fascinated me from a young age. There's almost something other-worldly about them and they definitely have a stark beauty of their own.
This is the Buffalo City Court Building. Look at it. Its... Powerful, is the only word I can really use. Its not graceful or majestic or anything like that. Its just... Powerful. Intimidating, even. One of my favorites.

Peter Hook / New Order. His basslines in Joy Division were my lessons when I started playing bass.

Torpedo tits and a Luger.

Whatever it is, it ain't a Luger.
