50 years ago: the Arecibo Message was beamed into Space.
On 16th November, 1974, the Arecibo Message was sent into space to communicate human existence to potential extraterrestrial life.

Her body her choice
My demented mind makes me really attracted to her…I don’t like the milk part, but I love her very innocent face that tells me she’s very dangerous as she’s hiding some really scary side to her…just understand I can see these things. They all know I know them and psycho chicks know I’m aware and that’s why they just say “yes, I’ll go out with you, but you’re gonna be sorry”…and off to the first date we go…and then I get punched very often while I’m sleeping or where they can dictate the terms of how I’m going to adhere to their wishes and keep my mouth shut
