Have seen some disparaging remarks about sex workers here on #BlueSky. A little compassion would be nice. In the early days of this platform, it was those on #OnlyFans this place alive. They are also liberals who deserve a place at the table. It will take all of us to win our country back. Thanks!

Wild Kingdom (1963-1988), seen here Marlon Perkins and Jim Fowler. Only watched it sporadically, but always seemed to me that Jim did all of the heavy lifting while, Marlon did much of the talking. #WildKingdom #StLouisZoo #Television #animals #wildanimals #classic

Dane Clark and Martha Vickers in “That Way With Women” (1947). Sydney Greenstreet is the actual star of this comedy—a remake of the 1931 George Arliss picture, “The Millionaire.” The new title makes no sense.

Don't assume that all "sit on their hands" because they are passive and submissive. Quite the contrary, many of these women run the show in their churches and homes behind the guise of men so they can have power without responsibility.

Not sure the exact year for this. Did anyone use on of these? It looks like a pretty fancy set up for the time. The best we did was those sleep inducing slide projectors. #camera #projectors #homemovies #film #history #nostalgia
