The Hoover Dam project was one of the first (the first?) where hard hats were mandatory for workers on-site!

"s-should the need arise"

Yes, Shadowheart, I am sure that's why you were considering that. Necessity.

PugJesus, to historyporn in WW2 weekly ration of sugar, tea, margarine, 'national butter', lard, eggs, bacon and cheese for an adult in the UK, WW2, 1942

The Brits referred to American GIs in the UK as "Overfed, oversexed, and over here" (some versions have 'overpaid' instead of 'overfed')

To which Americans developed a response - that Brits were underfed, undersexed, and under Eisenhower!

Bread wasn’t rationed but the only bread you could get your hands on was “the national loaf”, which my grandmother informed me was “saltier than unwashed seaweed”.

lmao

Makes one grateful to live in a more plentiful age!

Trading ration cards was actually very common! I imagine the only Brit who didn't like tea or sugar was living like the king.

Yeah, these are just the rationed goods. Bread wasn't rationed during WW2 for the Brits. Vegetables and the like also weren't rationed.

Yeah, rationing was easily one of the most hated things on the British home front. Rationing continued several years after the war and more or less directly led to the Labour government losing to the Conservatives over the issue of continuing rationing.

My favorite modern example is 'Marxist corporations'

PugJesus, (edited ) to historyporn in "My turn next!" Testing bulletproof vests, 1923
@PugJesus@kbin.social avatar

Mind mentioning where I said this was the first test?

I think OP is just grabbing posts from “fakehistoryporn” off Reddit and not understanding the difference…

You do realize that's not the kind of material "fakehistoryporn" posts, right? It would be labeled something more like "Experimental worm-removal by shockwave, 1865"

Just another of the (probably hundreds) of shitty meme communities OP mods or posts too. At this point I’m just blocking their whole account.

That's what the block button is there for.

Damn, here I thought I was living in a capitalist dystopia. Truly, the race mixers pulled one over on me. Must be the mixed blood in me making me vulnerable to communist brainwashing.
