No. People who are older than that have a smallpox vaccination scar on the shoulde from the vaccines in 1958-1977.
The arm thing is just an urban myth and plays on confirmation bias. Almost everyone have a freckle there for no good reason.
However.... Mexicans actually have a tuberculosis vaccination mark on the arm, but most other countries didn't need to vaccinate against that.
That's how these myths spread, part truth+loads of bullshit.
There will be plenty news about him after that. If anything he's going to be unleashed by whatever he thinks is restrictive for the election, so I expect the worst. Also all his grifting and law suits and all that shit.
I'm considering blocking everything including his name, because I seriously can't stand watching his disgusting face anymore and nothing good is ever going to come out of it.
Initially I figured that the story was that the guys were made to believe that it was her fantasy, not theirs, simply because I find it unlikely that he'd be capable of even finding 50 guys with that kind of fantasy.
I have personal no experience in this, but I suppose that's the purpose of "safe words", which will allow someone to participate in that kind of roleplay featuring imaginary non consencual sex until someone yells "Oklahoma".
Anyway, with it happening in some small village, I can imagine how they could be oblivious to any proper way of doing that sort of kink, but it can never remove their own responsibility of not having concent.
Put in a more straightforward way: I can not allow you to punch your friend in the balls. Only your friend can allow that. Regardless of how many times I tell you it's okay, it's just not okay, until he allows it himself, which has nothing to do with what I said.
Yesterday some uptown girl commented on my ruggy full beard, so today I wore my beard again, because I don't really give a fuck about her opinion.
I used to think the same, but kids are really much further ahead these days.
There's a lot of variety of course. Even my two kids are totally different. The older one knew the entire alphabet and basic math before kindergarten (<4yo), while the second one was still catching up on that in 2.grade (8yo here). Their gross motor skills are opposite though, and the oldest might never catch up on that.
So, play is learning in one way or the other, but there's no reason to hold back the children who are talented in one thing over the other. My oldest is being held back that way by the current curriculum. Starting school earlier might be a way of addressing this.
It's really just a matter of task assignment between institutions. Anything pre-school (nursery and kindergarten) is focused on behaviour and play, while early school (gradually) introduces more abstract learning, which requires a different teaching by teachers with a different education. Strictly speaking, it's a teachers problem, and there's currently not much overlap, except for "backwards compatibility", because schools do have employees who are educated in kindergarten levels, whereas kindergartens do not have school level teachers employed. By introducing school earlier, it is possible to widen this overlap while still allowing for kids to proceed in their own pace.
So, IMO, it makes sense, but yeah, it'd be dreadful to go to "school" for that many years. Coincidentally, kids also leave schools earlier. There's no longer many kids in 10th grade, because almost everyone goes on to the following studies after 9th these days. (which is a completely different discussion..)
I hope this makes sense. British/American school system are wildly different, but at the end of it, the kids will be kids, no matter what box they fit into.
Yeah well, I think a lot of people can actually do that. It's rough times for fartists.
