I’m thinking it was the coming of age of the last generation to regularly watch the Stooges in their childhood, when they were regularly on TV.
In the 70s, the Stooges had a couple of TV cartoons, Robotic Stooges from 1977, and reruns of the New 3 Stooges from 1965, and also reruns of the live action Stooges show from 1960-1972
They also appeared as guest stars on Hanna Barbera shows like Scooby Doo.
I can only imagine what giant aliens keeping humans like beekeepers keep bees would look like…
To elaborate: As @PunnyName@lemmy.world said, Joan of Arc was famously burned at the stake.
So much so that someone might have cashed in on the story, in the manner of poor taste, to sell “Joan of Arc” branded marshmallows for toasting on an open fire.
Marshmallows in their currently recognizable form are also an anachronism.
They did not achieve their current form and popularity in Europe until the 1800s https://candyusa.com/marshmallows/
The Three Stooges enjoyed a resurgence of popularity in the 80s.

If you read the list of news sources that MBFC considers “Least Biased” they’re mostly local newspapers, or local broadcast stations, or specialized industry publications.
With the notable exception of the Christian Science Monitor.
i.e. Pretty much any org that covers national news uses loaded language, because that’s the language of politics.
Before anyone asks, New Coke, or Coke II as it was renamed by then, was ceased in 2002, with a brief return in 2019 as a Stranger Things tie-in.
Women can perform support, strategic, logistics, and some frontline roles just as well as men.
Or maybe start designing small arms and body armor for women, artillery and other hardware for woman-sized operators, etc.
Don’t distract from the issue with whatabout-ism arguments.
I’d be curious to see if there’s an age cutoff for awareness of the New Coke saga…
Get the Russians to think about reallocating air defenses away from Ukraine to protect their far-flung military assets.
I’m surprised some yahoo country hasn’t tried to invade Russia, or throw out their Russia-backed sock puppet government.
Somewhat ironically, Omar Garcia Harfuch, nominated to her cabinet by Mexican President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum, was a former Mexico Police Chief who survived an assassination attempt in 2020.
Garcia Harfuch is suspected of being involved in the infamous disappearances of 43 students from Ayotzinapa Rural Teacher’s College, being head of the Federal Police of the region who abducted and allegedly tortured the students before killing them. https://nacla.org/rebirth-omar-garcia-harfuch
The official reason for the introduction of the six-day work week is that there is a shortage of skilled workers on the Greek labor market as the population keeps shrinking and the country losing scores of thousands of workers who fled during the economic and austerity crisis in search of jobs in other countries.
So “The austerity and beatings will continue until morale improves.”
Language is much more than words in a dictionary.
Each language carries its original cultural concepts and ways of thinking.
