When did a mustache become a pedo-stache?  When I was young, lots of men had mustaches, it was almost a requirement in Eastern Europe, and frankly a lot of them IMO looked better with them than without them.

I had actually never heard the pedo thing. To me mustaches make dudes look like porn actors so I tended to call it the "pornstache". Though when and how that association got started I am not sure. I am thinking the 70s and 80s when porn in VHS form became a thing.

I don't know how large the fines are but seeing price and crowd differences between flying during school holidays and outside of them, paying the fine may be the financially sound solution.

Parents doing that has become a thing in Sweden in recent decades. Didn't happen when I was a kid.

Musk is talking about founding another party

Elon Musk's proposed new political party could focus on a few pivotal congressional seats | Elon Musk | The Guardian https://share.google/2n2GDSHoFFrn1ek0K

This is why fascists usually have rivals killed.

I am looking forward to Musk accidentally falling out of a window soon.

He played a major role in Clone Wars and Rebels and had a cameo in Solo.

Aint nobody seen those. 

That's on you (and you clearly never checked the Star Wars thread).

I rolled my eyes when they brought him back in CW, but his appearances have consistently been among the best stories in those shows (which is why he gets his own spin off now), and Sam Witwer is great in the (voice) role.

I've encountered the thing that makes me feel old. Gen Z men thinking it's a good idea to have facial hair that consists only of a mustache.

  (And I agree, so many pedo-staches these days)
