Nietzsche appears to have evolved independently to fill the same environmental niche as Dr Zoidberg.
He doesn’t need to eat in the standard manner, he can just strain krill out of the ocean like a whale.
very [ee]nteresting.
This picture of him is a sad one to use, because he was extremely deteriorated at this point.
Other pictures don’t seem much less mustachey.
That’s still pretty dang mustachey
I would even say mustachioey
Syphilis?
It’s debated with no clear answer. Syphilis is one suggested reason. From what we know he was apparently just a sickly man in general, so it could have been a number of compounding things.
Indeed, this picture is from the last year or so of his life when he was completely lost to mental illness. It looks goofy at first but is quite disturbing when you know the context behind it.
I was going to say he looks like he made a bad deal with Ursula, but now I feel bad
So glad we’re out of the obligatory mustache era.
True, although I think it’s great that beards have made a comeback
nah i could probably rock one of these if i ate with a straw
Every time I have chicken soup, there’s never any chicken bits in it
*Harrumphs and blows out his mustache, showering the locality in chicken globs*
Mama says Friedrich Nietzsche was ornery cuz he got all them mustache hairs and no mustache comb.
If your beard looks like that, it’s probably quite flavorful.
Everything I eat tastes like the last thing I ate.
In this case, everything you eat tastes like the first thing you ate.
How do you even kiss that man?
Something tells me philosophers are typically not too concerned with attracting sexual partners.
women flock to them like flies on poop though. maybe i should have studied brain studies when i was in the schools.
Nietzsche had a sister complex.
Nietzsche if brought to 2025: “So tell me about this phenomenon you call ‘anime’”
Great philosophers don’t get kissed, silly. (Actually Nietzsche himself likely said something like that.)
I could probably grow a mustache like that, but I think my chances of getting kissed are low enough as it is.
What does not kill you makes you stronger. Chew that hair.
