"autism didn't exist back in my day"
(lemmy.nz)
dude was an absolute character
In between those events, he won 22 games for the Philadelphia Athletics; [...] toured the nation in a melodrama called The Stain of Guilt; courted, married, and became separated from May Wynne Skinner of Lynn, Massachusetts; saved a woman from drowning; accidentally shot a friend through the hand; and was bitten by a lion."
the wikipedia just RANDOMLY DROPPED that he was bitten by a LION with no context?!?
They'll say this and then not remember that dude who cataloged like a thousand types of fern or some shit in his life.
I once visited a museum in Split where they had the lifework of a guy on display: dozens of scenes filled with taxidermy frogs going about their human like lives.
