Documentary with digital english subtitles about the Brazilian Theater group that through talent, irony and humor confronted the Brazilian violent dictatorship in the 1970's revolutionizing the gay movement worldwide and changing theater and dance language to an entire generation.

Lennie Dale, a virtuoso Broadway dancer and émigré to Brazil, founded the 13-member group in 1973. Their productions were lavish explosions of creativity and imagination that had wide audience appeal.

More significantly, the group flourished at a time of extreme repression under a harsh military dictatorship; Brazil’s government shut them down only to be persuaded to let the show go on. For DZI CROQUETTES director Tatiana Issa, daughter of the group’s set designer, and her co-director/executive producer Raphael Alvarez have rounded up the five surviving Croquettes, their backstage colleagues and a raft of Brazilian stars to speak to the group’s lasting impact.

The filmmakers also interviewed choreographer Ron Lewis and Liza Minnelli, both close friends and admirers of the late Dale.

Yankees' Aaron Boone intrigued by intentional walk idea amid Aaron Judge's recent treatment

Yankees' Aaron Boone intrigued by intentional walk idea amid Aaron Judge's recent treatment

It is hard to blame teams for wanting to intentionally walk Aaron Judge.The New York Yankees captain enters play on Wednesday having swatted 42 home runs while maintaining a .332 batting average.Aaron Boone appeared on OutKick’s “The Ricky Cobb Show” and discussed a possible change regarding the intentional walk rule.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM”This [proposed rule] applies to each batter individually. The first time you intentionally walk him, it’s one base; the second time you intentionally walk him, he gets two bases and everybody moves up two if anybody is on, which obviously you wouldn’t consider it if anyone was in scoring position; and if you want to do it a third time, it’s effectively a triple,” Cobb proposed.Judge was intentionally walked in the second inning with nobody on base and two outs against the Toronto Blue Jays in a game this month, which spurred the conversation about intentional walks.RED SOX’S JARREN DURAN HAS TOP-RATED JERSEY ON MLB SHOP AFTER ANTI-GAY SLUR”I’m with you. So, this has been a topic I’ve been getting asked a lot about, even in my scrums with the media, so I’m like, ‘Eh, I need some time to think about it.’” Boone said. “I agree, I think it’s the biggest moments in the game, you don’t take the ball out of Pat Mahomes’ hands, so I think you should at least have to pitch to them.”If you want to unintentionally walk them, there is an art form to that, and you’ve got to be able to capably do that. I think Major League Baseball has shown over the last several years that they are willing to tweak some rules every now and again, which hasn’t always been the case. I think in this case, you should be forced to pitch to everyone and have the art to be careful about it.”As of Wednesday, Judge had been intentionally walked 14 times this season. He was intentionally walked 19 times during his 2022 AL MVP campaign, in which he set the American League record for most home runs during a single season with 62.Judge leads Major League Baseball in intentional walks this season. The Houston Astros’ Yordan Alvarez is second with 13, while the Boston Red Sox’ Rafael Devers has 12.The Yankees are in the midst of a series against the Chicago White Sox.Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

"We're going back in time a little for the next hour or so. I am going to live-tweet the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, which occurred on 6 August 1945. Exactly 75 years ago.

This is a sad, horrific day but we need to remember it.

T-1 hour. The bombers are en route, having taken off from Tinian. B-29 Superfortresses, the plane that carries the atomic device - Little Boy - is the Enola Gay. The name was after the pilot, Col. Paul Tibbets MOTHER. Taken from the usual pilot for the mission.

She was only named on 5 August.

They set off about 4 1/2 hours ago. The Enola Gay's callsign is Dimples 82. There are 6 other planes: three for weather recon over targets, one strike obs, one spare.

Enola Gay picks up a message from Dimples 85: "Straight Flush". The plane's job is to assess cloud over Hiroshima.

"Cloud cover less than 3/10th at all altitudes. Advice: bomb primary."

Hiroshima will be the target.

Down below, the city has just sounded the all-clear.

The mission includes one future Nobel prize winner. Accompanying Enola Gay is The Great Artiste, which will do measurements of the blast. On board is Luis Alvarez, who will win the Physics prize in 1968 for developing the hydrogen bubble chamber.

The bomb is a uranium atomic weapon, a type that has never been detonated before: the first test was a plutonium, more powerful, 'Fat Man' bomb. Little Boy is a misnomer, though: the bomb weighs 9700 pounds and is around 3m long.

It is already armed.

Tibbets has ordered no formation flying. The planes with him - Great Artiste and (I am not making this name up) Necessary Evil, are just in visual range.

The Sun is up now. They are slowly rising to about 31,000 feet. On board, the crew says very little.

In Hiroshima, people are beginning their day. They do not know about atomic weapons. It is HQ of General Hata's 2nd Army, controlling the defence of southern Japan. Around 350,000 people live here.

The target of the bomb is the strange, T-shaped Aioi Bridge in the city heart.

T-30 minutes. On board Enola Gay, the mission commander, William "Deak" Parsons, does the final arming, removing the safety devices that could have caused it to detonate if it crashed on take-off. The duty falls to his assistant, Morris Jeppson.

There are 12 men on board. Only one of them, Robert Lewis, is keeping a minute-by-minute account.

Japan comes into view. For Navigator "Dutch" Van Kirk, it is the first and only mission he will fly over the country.

The Enola Gay's flightpath goes over the island of Shikoku and on to Hiroshima. The city becomes clear into view about 50 miles out.

It's a beautiful day.

A total of 3,243 troops have begun physical training in the ground of Hiroshima Castle.

They will all be dead in 15 minutes.

T-13 minutes. Bombardier Thomas Ferebee, in the nose, recognises Hiroshima. He asks Dutch, who confirms they have the target. They will make their bomb run shortly.

T-6 minutes. Ferebee takes control of the plane. The Enola Gay has begun its bombing run. Only Ferebee, Tibbets and Parsons know what the bomb can do: everyone else has been given black goggles and told to expect a flash.

This is what Hiroshima looks like from the air.

Eizō Nomura, is working in a concrete basement of the Rest House, about 200m from where the blast will happen. He will be the closest survivor of the atomic bomb attack.

The other 36 people in the building above him will die.

T-2 minutes. Tibbets begins to count down to his crew.

The worst weapon in history will soon be used.

"10...9...8...7..."

8.15am 6 August 1945. Enola Gay releases the atomic bomb.

It will take 43 seconds to reach the ground. It is already caught in a crosswind and will miss the target. Enola Gay veers upward and immediately begins a 160-degree turn to escape.

The bomb misses its target, and detonates directly over the Shima Surgical Clinic. It releases 16 kilotons of energy, levelling everything in a mile’s radius of the blast. There is a flash… then a blast. Then death.

Within a four-mile radius, fires rage.

Devestation. Carnage. Thousands die instantly. Thousands more will die soon. Around 70% of Hiroshima’s buildings are destroyed. Among the casualties is the mayor, killed instantly while eating breakfast with his son and granddaughter.

Enola Gay is buffeted by the explosion, the men in the flight cabin dazzled like ‘a photographer’s bulb going off’. They continue to fly away, in an arc northeast then southeast of the city. From their vantage point, they see only dust and smoke, “like a pot black, boiling tar.”

On the ground, the death toll is catastrophic. Many more are severely injured, such as from thermal flash burns. Already a firestorm has begun to sweep through Hiroshima. There is no one to help: 90% of the city’s doctors and nurses are casualties themselves.

At the Red Cross Hospital, only one doctor, Terufumi Sasaki, is able to remain on duty and help survivors.

Yoshie Oka, a high school student, messages Fukuyama HQ: “Hiroshima has been attacked by a new type of bomb. The city is in a state of near-total destruction."

Field Marshal Hata is only slightly wounded and trying to take control but many of his staff are dead.

12 American airmen are imprisoned in the city. Eight die instantly; two are executed; two are badly wounded and left to be stoned to death next to Aioi Bridge.

The mushroom cloud has begun to form over the city. On the outskirts, fires rage. Tibbets, exhausted, hands over controls and decides to take a nap. Enola Gay returns safely to base and will arrive at 3pm.

In the carnage, a firestorm has begun (pictured).

In total, 20,000 Japanese soldiers and 70-120,000 civilians will lose their life. It is the worst death toll caused by a single weapon in history.

Three days later, a more powerful bomb will be dropped on Nagasaki.

Please remember why we do not use these weapons.

This has been a very horrible to write but it is important we remember.

This story needs to be told, shared, and memorialised.

Lest we forget.

For those wondering, Enola Gay is currently a museum display at the Udvar-Hazy Center near Dulles Airport in Virginia, US (part of the Smithsonian).”-Kit Chapman

OC Question Tag- Asha and Briana

Originally posted by @azul-alvarez​ and tagged by @alqulyndrys​

I so tag: @detachhunter because I can't remember who else has OCs @granddaughterogg if ya got any

I'm only gonna do my two favorite girls, because otherwise it would take forever.

1. What is your name? A: Asha Raine Urdr? Persephone? Not sure which one you want.

B: Briana. My real name? Do I have to? My last name is Mahmoud, but I’m not telling you my first.

2. Do you know why are you named that?

A: Asha is Sanskrit and my mom thought it was funny, because we’re Native American, because we’re commonly called ‘Indians’. Yeah, she was a funny lady.

B: Because I wanted to be.

3. Are you single or taken? A: Taken... He’s not okay with “girlfriend” yet, but apparently “inamorata” is fine. He’s, like, really old fashioned.

B: Taken.

4. Have any abilities or powers? A: Yeah. “Druidic” is a loose term that a lot of people would use to describe them, for whatever reason.

B: Mmhmm.

5. Stop being a Mary Sue. A: I mean, I’ll try. (Best not to bring up the cannibalism if she’s fooling them.)

B: You can go fuck yourself with a rusty pipe. What the hell is a “Mary Sue”?

6. What’s your eye color? A: Hazel.

B: You got eyes. What? Oh fine. They’re dark brown. A lot of people say they look black or grey.

7. How about your hair color? A: It was black way back when, but it turned white a bit ago.

B: It’s naturally black. I dye it blue. Because I fucking like blue.

8. Have any family members? A: No. (Lie)

B: That’s-it’s... complicated.

9. Oh? How about pets? A: *casts a nervous glance at Dust glaring through a window* I’m not sure.

B: We have a hairless cat named Grandpa Wrinkle. Don’t tell War though, he just thinks the house is haunted. We also have Pee-Wee.

10. That’s cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don’t like? A: I don’t like it when people disrespect nature. I mean, it provides so much and yet no one wants to take care of it. I dunno, just gets under my skin. Also when people go after my friends.

B: When people are fake or when people are mad because people are who they are.

11. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do? A: Gardening, hiking, all that good stuff. (Stealing, assassination, espionage)

B: I don’t really have a lot of time.

12. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before? A: Only in self defense. (Lie)

B: Only a little.

13. Ever… killed anyone before? A: Of course not. (Lies, lies, lies)

B: Yeah.

14. What kind of animal are you? A: I don’t know. I don’t turn into anything like the other girls. Maybe a deer. (Lie)

B: I turn into a Wadjet, does that count? You’ve never heard of it? It’s a big snake, basically.

15. Name your worst habits? A: I chew on my lips.

B: Nail biting. I watch TV a lot.

16. Do you look up to anyone at all? A: Death is pretty tall hahaha.

B: Hoda Sha’arawi. She was such an inspiration to me growing up. My dad didn’t really approve, but he was really old fashioned. I mean, Egypt changed a lot from her time, but it was still really inspirational to hear my great-grandma talk about her.

17. Are you gay, straight or bisexual? A: I’m demisexual, actually, but I have been known to frequent both ponds, if you know what I mean.

B: I think I’m straight. People have told me that since I’m Aphrodite that I have to be gay or bi or poly or I’m sending a statement saying it’s not ‘legitimate’ love. But I mean, honestly, that’s just what I like and not everyone will be happy no matter what sexuality I am. All love is legitimate, and if they need someone to make them feel secure then that’s something they need to figure out for themselves. I’m not going to be less me so people can feel better about being more them. ... I’m sorry, what was the question?

18. Do you go to school? A: No, unfortunately.

B: Not anymore.

19. Ever want to marry and have kids one day? A: I do have kids already. As for marriage, I don’t know. Never really had a great experience with it, myself.

B: Nah.

20. Do you have any fangirls/fanboys? A: Just like the other girls, I do have worshipers. A cult or two have sprung up with some weird ideas. No, of course none of them are true. (Lie)

B: Not after they meet me. Any real crazy ones usually keep their distance. You know, because War and his murder face.

21. What are you most afraid of? A: Disappointing the people I love. Especially Death and Hadiya.

B: Spiders. That’s why we have Pee-Wee.

22. What do you usually wear? A: Depends on my mood. Florals and leather is my signature style, though. Death likes dresses.

B: Whatever’s comfortable.

23. What’s one food that tempts you? A: Sweets. (Aside from the consistently intense craving for human flesh, it’s true.)

B: Sweets, usually. Chocolate is the best. Swedish chocolate is the best of the best.

24. Am I annoying to you? A: Haha, no no. (Lie)

B: Yes.

25. Well, it’s still not over! A: Go ahead sweetie, I’m an open book.

B: Fuck.

26. What class are you (low/middle/high)? A: I grew up lower middle class. Not sure where I stand now. I’m not even around people half of the year.

B: Allah. No, I can say it. Don’t start with me. I’m a damn Muslim and I can say whatever the fuck I want. Bitch.

27. How many friends do you have? A: A small group of friends. Family, really. I grew up with Hadiya and I knew Felice before things went to shit.

B: Asha gave me her Netflix password. And Strife says hi to Grandpa Wrinkle.

28. What are your thoughts on pie? A: Love it.

B: Next question. (Gotta get some pie on the way home)

29. Favorite drink? A: Grasshoppers are pretty yummy.

B: Fruity, usually.

30. What’s your favorite place? A: I can honestly say with Death. He’s just so unwavering and sometimes I need that. What do you mean? Oh, when I’m not with him I guess my favorite place is the forest. Same reasons. It’s old and peaceful and will probably kill you if you don’t treat it with respect.

B: Home.

31. Are you interested in anyone? A: Death is the only one.

B: No. I mean, there’s War.

32. That was a stupid question… A: No, no, it’s okay. No one really gets it. Not even me. Hahaha.

B: A waste of time.

33. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean? A: I guess a lake. Unless it’s in alligator country.

B: A pool.

34. What’s your type? A: Apparently necromancers. I mean, I’ve known 4. And I’ve had the hots for all of them. That can’t be a coincidence.

B: What’s my type... my type... *thinking hard* Hot. I like hot guys.

35. Any fetishes? A: Nothing super weird. (Holy shit, what a lie. My girl is into blood play.)

B: Heh no comment. (Dominatrix)

36. Camping indoors or outdoors? A: Outdoors with friends, indoor with Death. He’s really on edge if it’s outside and that’s not what camping is about.

B: In.
