some say people in the 1950s, living without internet, were more innocent and when they made something like candle salad, they really did just think it looked like a candle

@Taweret i despise the idea that people were more "innocent" in the past
it's literally just baby's first fashy degeneracy argument
there's cave art of dicks. but yeah nobody in the 1950s A-fucking-D could recognize a phallus

@catswhocode @Taweret I had to Google candle salad but... that's no accident
For proof of previous generations being kinky, I love the Bishopsgate Archive in London. They've got kink magazines from the 20s. [Current generation] never invented anything.

@Taweret @x4nw I always remember the little interview segments Warren Beatty put into his film REDS, talking with people who’d lived through the Russian Revolution and the Red Scare, asking them to reminisce about the 1910s and 20s from the perspective of where they were by then, which was around 1980. And the writer Henry Miller, by then a very old man, looks right into the camera and says “you know, I think there was just as much fucking going on back then as there is now”
