As the essence of Metal takes over Pop’s beloved characters, one thing goes unanswered… were NSYNC, Britney Spears, Ariana Grande, Lana del Rey, Backstreet Boys, Celine Dion, Aqua, Spice Girls and The Weeknd always into sacrificing the hearts of goats and turning into flesh eating zombies? Or was this just another weekend get together?
Stubby was a Boston Terrier that wandered into the grounds of Yale University in July 1917. It just so happened that members of the 102nd infantry were training in Yale on this particular day. Thus, the story of the most decorated dog of World War I was born. As the soldiers were training, Stubby refused to leave their side. After growing fond of the friendly pup, Corporal Robert Conroy decided that when it was time to ship out, he would hide Stubby onboard. When they departed in France, Corporal Conroy hid Stubby in his jacket. When he was eventually discovered by the commanding officer, he was aghast to see Stubby salute him. The soldiers had trained him to salute upon request. He was allowed to stay, it was decided.
For 18 months, Stubby served in the trenches of France; he participated in four offended and 17 battles. His first injury was inhalation of toxic gas. As a result, Stubby became very sensitive to the smell - something that came in handy. When Stubby smelt the gas, he would run to all of the soldiers barking to awaken them. Additionally, Stubby would run through the trenches to find wounded soldiers. He was trained to differentiate between English and German language and bark whenever he found an English speaking soldier who was injured. In one of his most impressive endeavours, he captured a German spy. As he was mapping out the allied trenches, the German spy spotted Stubby and called out to him in English. Recognising the language of the enemy, Stubby attacked him. It was this heroic event that promoted Stubby to rank of sergeant.
After the war, he became an American celebrity, even visiting the White House twice and meeting President Woodrow Wilson. He passed away at the age of nine or ten and his body was donated to the Smithsonian Institute.
You gotta check the facts before you spread misinformation. Many people read headlines from satire news websites and just go with it.
Fran is a survivor of sexual assault and a huge supporter of LGBTQIA+ rights. Do you REALLY think she’d support that racist rapist?!
She specifically became involved in LGBTQ+ advocacy when her then ex husband came out to her some years after their divorce, and she even made a show with him 2011 trying to help him find love. Fran Drescher is an angel!
Fran is honestly such a good and kind person and she’s a fighter……don’t defame her!
She’s also……..a Jewish woman and Donald Trump was elected by white nationalists…………….like this is not funny…….
‘LOVING VINCENT,’ an Animated Film Featuring 12 Oil Paintings per Second by Over 100 Painters
‘Loving Vincent’ will
be the world’s first feature length painted animation, with every shot
painted with oil paints on canvas, just as Van Gogh himself painted.
Written & Directed by Dorota Kobiela & Hugh Welchman, produced by Poland’s BreakThru Films & UK’s Trademark Films. The film is scheduled for a 2017
release.
“Every one of the 65,000 frames of the film is an oil-painting
hand-painted by 125 professional oil-painters who traveled from all
across Europe to the Loving Vincent studios in Poland and Greece to be a
part of the production.”
“The film was first shot as a live action film with actors then
hand-painted over frame-by-frame in oils. The final effect is an
interaction of the performance of the actors playing Vincent’s famous
portraits, and the performance of the painting animators, bringing these
characters into the medium of paint.”
“Loving Vincent is an investigation
delving into the life and controversial death of Vincent Van Gogh, one
of the world’s most beloved painters, as told through his paintings and
by the characters that inhabit them,”
“The
intrigue unfolds through interviews with the characters closest to
Vincent and through dramatic reconstructions of the events leading up to
his death.”
