The price of gas is going up insanely fast. I was at the gas station, yesterday and ran into all these people. There were multiple lines and the lot was chaotic to navigate around. #gasprices #gasstation #longlines #crazy #madness

The Music Video to “One Step Beyond” by Madness Madness’s debut album is nothing short of a masterpiece for the manner in, which it brought together elements of 2 tone, ska, rocksteady, and new wave in a way no other artist has since. Fueled by the single “One Step Beyond”, the song’s music video featured the band unveiling their Nutty Train dance. The live performance was shot at a North London pub named The Hope & Anchor. The song was originally recorded by a Jamaican ska singer name Prince Buster as the B-side of his 1967 single “Al Capone.” Having recorded the Prince Buster tribute tune “The Prince” for their debut single, Madness covered “One Step Beyond” as their follow-up. The Nutty Boys even named themselves after a Buster song, “Madness.” In an interview with the Daily Mirror, frontman Suggs had this to say about the song: “We used to play the Hawaii 5-0 theme as a novelty cover version to start our shows. When we got bored we did this track instead, but the original recording was only 45 seconds long. We didn’t even think it would get on the album. Our record company boss heard it and got our producers to loop it. We still start every gig with it. We’ve tried other songs but that’s the one we always come back to. Cathal’s introduction is a clarion call.” #Music #Madness

Pharaoh Ramesses II (also known as Ramesses the Great), who "applied" for a passport more than 3,000 years after his death. ​The Story: A King in Transit ​In the mid-1970s, Egyptian experts noticed that the mummy of Ramesses II was deteriorating rapidly due to a fungal infestation. To save the ancient ruler, they needed to fly him to Paris, France, for specialized treatment and radiation. ​The Bureaucratic Twist: French law at the time was famously strict—everyone entering the country, whether alive or deceased, required a valid legal identity document. ​The Solution: To get him through customs without a hitch, the Egyptian government issued an official Egyptian passport to the mummy in 1974. ​The Details: While the actual document hasn't been released to the public, it is widely reported (and sometimes debated as a bit of fun "official lore") that his occupation was listed as "King (deceased)." #history #earth #eygpt #france🇫🇷 #madness

🎬 La identidad, cuando es negada de forma constante, no desaparece: se deforma. Joker no construye a un villano desde el espectáculo, sino desde la fractura. Arthur Fleck no nace como símbolo del caos; se convierte en él cuando descubre que el mundo no tiene lugar para su fragilidad. La película no observa la violencia como un acto repentino, sino como un proceso acumulativo. Cada humillación, cada mirada indiferente, cada puerta que se cierra va erosionando la ya frágil estabilidad de un hombre que apenas logra sostenerse. El descenso no es vertiginoso; es lento, casi clínico, y por eso resulta perturbador. Ciudad Gótica no es solo un escenario decadente; es una estructura que produce abandono. El sistema retira apoyos, invisibiliza al vulnerable y luego se sorprende cuando la frustración encuentra una forma violenta de manifestarse. Arthur no se siente visto hasta que deja de intentar encajar. La visibilidad llega, pero bajo la máscara. Todd Phillips elige un realismo incómodo, más cercano al cine urbano de los setenta que al imaginario del cómic. Como en Taxi Driver, el foco no está en la acción sino en la alienación, en ese aislamiento que fermenta en silencio hasta volverse explosión. La transformación no se presenta como triunfo, sino como síntoma social. El monstruo no surge de la genialidad criminal, sino de la acumulación de desprecio. La película sugiere que cuando la empatía se extingue, lo que emerge no es orden, sino resentimiento organizado. Y entonces la pregunta deja de ser quién es el Joker, para volverse más inquietante: ¿cuánta responsabilidad tiene el entorno en la creación de aquello que teme? Si una sociedad convierte el dolor en espectáculo, ¿puede sorprenderse cuando el espectáculo devuelve el golpe? #Joker #JoaquinPhoenix #ToddPhillips #scene #drama #filmanalysis #acting #alienation #madness #actuacion #reel #movie #film #fyp

The quote by Aristotle suggests that many great thinkers or innovators possess a “touch of madness,” which does not mean they are unstable but that they think differently from ordinary people. Great minds often question accepted ideas, pursue bold visions, and remain deeply committed to their goals even when others consider those ideas unrealistic. This unusual way of thinking allows them to challenge existing limits and create new possibilities. In this sense, the “touch of madness” refers to the courage to challenge norms, the determination to pursue ambitious ideas, and the willingness to appear unconventional in order to achieve something meaningful. A well-known example is Nikola Tesla. Many of his ideas about electricity and wireless energy transmission seemed strange or impossible to people during his time. However, his unconventional thinking and deep obsession with innovation led to groundbreaking developments in electrical engineering, including the advancement of alternating current (AC) systems that are still used worldwide today. #hardwork #madness #obssesed #success #selfimprovement
