Found two weird rabbit trails from here, beatniks and cannibalism (not necessarily related to each other).
I have to make a post about the beatniks I guess, I'll try do it over the weekend, it's all a bit esoteric. Did basic research on the movement and some of the people.
Need to do more research on the cannibalism and it involves science so it's extra weird, I'm sure new horrors will be revealed.

Quote:The term "beatnik" was coined by Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle on April 2, 1958, blending the name of the recent Russian satellite Sputnik and Beat Generation. This suggested that beatniks were (1) "far out of the mainstream of society" and (2) "possibly pro-Communist."[59] Caen's term stuck and became the popular label associated with a new stereotype—the man with a goatee and beret reciting nonsensical poetry and playing bongo drums while free-spirited women wearing black leotards dance
