Eric Clapton went from setting the standard for rock guitar to making ‘full-tilt’ racist rants to becoming an outspoken vaccine skeptic. Did he change? Or was he always like this?

Queen's Brian May shared some thoughts about Eric Clapton, who recently said he will not play any live shows that require attendees to show proof that they've received the COVID-19 vaccine.

In July, Clapton made it clear that he won't grace "any stage where there is a discriminated audience present. Unless there is provision made for all people to attend, I reserve the right to cancel the show."

"I love Eric Clapton," May said in an interview with The Independent published on Saturday (Aug. 7). "He's my hero, but he has very different views from me in many ways. He's a person who thinks it’s OK to shoot animals for fun, so we have our disagreements, but I would never stop respecting the man."

"Anti-vax people, I’m sorry, I think they’re fruitcakes," May added.

Clapton previously said he feared he would "never play again" after receiving both doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine.

Meanwhile, May -- who says he's become a bit of a "health and exercise addict" after suffering a heart attack and having three stents put in, in May 2020 -- supports the science behind the COVID-19 vaccine.

"There’s plenty of evidence to show that vaccination helps," he noted. "On the whole they’ve been very safe. There’s always going to be some side effect in any drug you take, but to go around saying vaccines are a plot to kill you, I'm sorry, that goes in the fruitcake jar for me."

Last month, something like a half dozen conservative anti-vaxxer radio hosts died of COVID-19. Now another one has died. How many conservative radio hosts are there?

Colorado radio host Bob Enyart, who urged the boycott of vaccines, died of Covid-19 yesterday. Enyart and his wife were unvaccinated against COVID-19 after supporting the debunked theory that vaccinations had been tested on aborted fetuses. A regular feature of his radio show involved reading obituaries of AIDS sufferers while playing "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen, whose lead singer, Freddie Mercury, died in 1991 from complications from AIDS.

It is a well known fact that the most attractive female body shape is the hourglass body shape which consists of a very tiny waist, a full bust and wide hips/round bum which is equal to the size of the busy and makes an hourglass shape of a “figure 8” shape.

This goes hand in hand with the most attractive female face shape being heart followed by oval due to the softness and feminine daintiness associated with the pointed and small chin/jaw as well as the plumpness of the apples of the cheek and should be accompanied with large almond eyes as well as plump lips.

With regard to facial characteristics preferred, they have been discussed to death and the verdict has remained the same for millenniums and is said to be evolutionary and in-built: https://www.image.ie/style/beauty/why-big-eyes-and-full-lips-are-considered-more-attractive-21556

I can quote: “With regard to these features, men tend to prefer women with large eyes, small noses, small chins, narrow cheeks, high eyebrows, and large, full-lipped smiles.”

Cheryl Cole, Eva Longoria, Ashley Greene, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlet Johanson, Marilyn Monroe have all got heart shaped faces.

Others who are known to be very attractive have oval faces with most or all the conventionally attractive features

Charles Darwin racist:

"Darwin suggests that the break between "man and his nearest allies" will be widened through the extinction of the great apes, leaving a gap between the more civilized man "and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla". No doubt about it: he regards Africans and Australians as closer than Europeans to the apes. "

Racist AND sexist:

" He was also convinced that evolution was progressive, and that the white races—especially the Europeans—were evolutionarily more advanced than the black races, thus establishing race differences and a racial hierarchy. Darwin's views on gender, too, were utterly conventional. He stated that the result of sexual selection is for men to be, “more courageous, pugnacious and energetic than woman [with] a more inventive genius. His brain is absolutely larger [...] the formation of her skull is said to be intermediate between the child and the man” (Darwin 1871). Although female choice explains sexual selection, it is the males who evolve in order to meet the chosen criteria of strength and power; such nineteenth century differentiation between the sexes was crucial in providing an alleged biological basis for the superiority of the male."

I'm a 24 yr old premed applying to med school this year, entering school in Fall 2021. I have 14 months of 'freedom' left. Long story short, I've read that female docs have difficulty marrying if they wait til after school to prioritize relationships. What is the best way to about finding a long-term bf/fiance? Another goal of mine is to learn about investing in stocks, and become a content creator, and I also really want to get a job after COVID, to save as much as I can to invest into index funds. I have 0 debt from undergrad, and may graduate med school debt-free (if I get into my state school). I'm trying to learn about finance now so I can set up my future financial security. I also think now is an ideal time to date. I hear all this stuff about how a women is most desirable in her 20s, xyz... I often get mistaken for a high schooler though, I look quite young for my age but still. I know fertility decreases as you age, etc. I read an article which featured comments from female physicians who regretted waiting so long to prioritize relationships. I also read articles stating that men don't want someone who makes more, so my hope is that I can find a man that makes a good amount, because I won't be having any income in med school, or residency (50k before tax, I think), so hopefully even though I'll eventually make 6 figures, he won't be scared off. Oh, I should probably add that I'm an abstinent Christian who doesn't believe in cohabitation. So the 'stakes' are higher for me to choose the right person, because I won't get to see them 'at their worst' or 'in their natural habitat' before marriage. Any tips? Should I 'target' a 30 yr old, a 34 yr old? Should I try to just look for people my age? Where should I be meeting people who are looking for long-term relationships/marriage? And my church doesn't have eligible bachelors, it's family-dominated.
