That's because in older generations, milk was framed as a stupid children's drink for children, so teens and adults didn't drink it. After all, a cool 17-year-old doesn't want to look like a BABY in front of her even cooler friends! This was especially true for girls and women of the time, who might also stop drinking milk in an attempt to lose weight.
As a result, practically an entire generation developed osteoporosis and other health problems due to a lifelong lack of Vitamin D and calcium. Ask any woman you know over 50 and she'll probably have a story like "oh yeah no one drank milk and I really regret it because a light breeze will break all my bones." For one example, my mother-in-law has a calcium deficiency that is affecting her health. But because she hasn't drank milk in like 60 years, it's both hard to get in the habit of having a glass, plus the texture is kind of gross to her since she's not used to it. Which in turn makes it harder to fix the deficiency.
So go back to the early 90s, and combine public health officials desperate to prevent another generation of vitamin-deprived kids, 90s parents looking for alternatives to soda to give their kids, and dairy farmers around the US concerned with their low sales, and you get the Got Milk campaign.
(Please note this is just me giving historical context to weird retro ads. I'm aware that there's other ways to get nutrients in your diet, and I'm not saying anyone HAS to drink cow milk specifically)
Tony Hawk's secret weapon.
this is literally not true, the idea that milk is super good for you and necessary for good bone health was a lie created to sell you milk, and it apparently worked
This post is such a good example of how effective advertising can be. There was no epidemic of osteoporosis in the 1990′s caused by decreased dairy consumption. This is categorically untrue.
What did happen in the 1990′s however, was a continuing decline in milk sales as a result of the increasing popularity of soft drinks. So the advertising agency Goodby Silverstein & Partners stepped in with the Got Milk campaign in 1993, funded by California's major milk processors (not public health officials) with three cents from each gallon of milk sold going toward the campaign—which amounted to approximately $23 million annually. In 1994, at the height of the campaign, 755 million gallons were sold in the state, up from 740 million gallons in 1993. Due to that success, Got Milk was later rolled out nationally, while osteoporosis rates in the US continued to climb.
So no, this large conglomerate of dairy corporations certainly didn’t fund this ubiquitous and extremely expensive advertising campaign because they were worried about your bone health. It was solely about profit. This was money well spent though, since people are still spouting this kind of industry propaganda 30 years later, and apparently they’re doing it for free.
How is bnha anime of the decade...... they aren’t even anime of the hour of the minute of the second
The notes on this post were so toxic that staff just axed em
1969.........
Yes, when the original post is deleted from the server (not just the blog, but the Tumblr servers), there is no root post for notes to be added onto, and also no root post for time to be counted from, so it starts from zero. Most computer operating systems use Unix, which was launched in 1971 with t.he epoch date of midnight on January 1, 1970 as 1. Therefore zero is one second behind that date: December 31, 1969. Also, very unfortunately, this also means nobody except you and anyone you reblog it to will see this explanation, as you cannot open the notes to see comments when there are no notes.
Tumblr is truly one of the webbed sites ever
But how did it get deleted from the tumblr servers?
this video is so dangerous why did he put this in the public’s hands. killers can watch it after every kill and be able to get into the kingdom of heaven and then keep killing in heaven all they want
That noise is him taking a screenshot of your soul
I've had this in my folders for a veeeryyy long time but I've now trying to finish some of my forever-wips
ANTI-CAPITALIST AFFIRMATIONS
- i am allowed to spend my time creating things, even if they are not beautiful.
- there is no such thing as a "real job." all forms of work are real and valid.
- there is nothing that i need to accomplish to be worthy. i am already worthy.
- doing nothing is good for my soul.
- i am not defined by what i produce.
- my worth cannot be measured by my paycheck, my job title, or a list of professional or academic achievements.
- i do not need to monetize my hobbies, it is enough to spend time doing something i love.
- i will not let society decide what success looks like. i can define what successful life looks like for me.
This is awesome…some body focused ones would be so nice add, too, seeing as how much money is made off of our insecurities (insecurities they manufacture in us btw)
•I am not only allowed to be still, rest, and eat, I must do these things to survive.
•My body doesn’t need to look or function to someone else’s standards.
•I’m allowed to seek pleasure in my body.
The fascinating thing about this particular patch note is that it implies the game engine is fully rendering your character's penis at all times, not just when you take your pants off.
I'd say it was because they were accurately rendering the bulge, but if they're clipping through, that clearly can't be the case either.
Even if they wanted the bulges to be meticulously accurate, the sensible approach would have been to include a hidden penis size slider in the mesh for the trousers. That way, you could render the trousers with a bulge of appropriate dimensions baked into the mesh and simply switch the penis off whenever it's fully covered; it'd be hugely computationally cheaper than doing fabric simulation to determine the bulge dimensions dynamically, you'd save on running needless penis physics calculations whose results will never be seen by the player, and there'd be no risk of penis clipping. The way they currently seem to be doing it is just sloppy penis optimisation.

IT’S OFFICIAL, Y’ALL!
I am soon going to be embarking on a whole new project, one that involves making illustrations for one of my favorite books ever: The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle!
Before I release the first illustration, I want to share some concept art I’ve made over the past few years: some sketches of the titular unicorn and her human alter ego, plus a colored pencil artwork in which I experimented somewhat with the look and color scheme of the lilac wood.
I am eagerly working on bringing this book to life, and I can’t wait to share it with you!
