    So Al Jourgeson Jourgensen started out Ministry as a New Wave band (and sometimes claims that he was forced to do less heavy sounds by his managers tho this is disputed) and this is one of their last songs with a New Wave sound. Then Al started developing a heavier more metal-influenced industrial sound inna late 80s early 90s. Last year he started redoing some of his older songs in the heavier style. A couple weeks ago he released a video for the remake of this song, I think someone posted it on !gothindustrial@lemmy.world.

    The Great Male Renunciation (French: Grande Renonciation masculine) is the historical phenomenon at the end of the 18th century in which wealthy men of the Western world stopped using bright colours, elaborate shapes and variety in their dress, which were left to women’s clothing. Instead, men concentrated on minute differences of cut, and the quality of the plain cloth.[1]

    Coined by British psychologist John Flügel in 1930, it is considered a major turning point in the history of clothing in which the men relinquished their claim to adornment and beauty.[2] Flügel asserted that men “abandoned their claim to be considered beautiful” and “henceforth aimed at being only useful”.[3] The Great Renunciation encouraged the establishment of the suit’s monopoly on male dress codes at the beginning of the 19th century.

  • I used to like donuts, then one day I started making my own frosting and put it on cake and toast and other stuff. Eventually I got tired of it and I haven’t wanted donuts since. My theory is that donuts give you just enough frosting to want more but not enough to be satisfying, so you keep eating those blobs of deep-fried bread hoping to get enough frosting.
