Slap dancers! British tourist is left covered in blood by 20 women at Thai strip club when they started fighting over customers 'with legs flying everywhere'

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...verywhere.html

Slap and Tickle Thailand Style, no thanks, I'll stick to the UK version of Slap and Tickle as it's far less humiliating, flattened by a bunch of girlies, although one of them looks like an all in wrestler it still makes him look a bleeding Wimp.

A 104-year-old woman dies before Guinness can confirm her record as oldest skydiver

A 104-year-old woman has died a little more than a week after she potentially broke the world record for the oldest skydiver.

Dorothy Hoffner jumped 13,500 feet from a plane with Skydive Chicago in Ottawa, Ill., on Oct. 1. She likely died in her sleep Monday at Brookdale Senior Living, the center said.

Sounds like I'm missing a real buyers market. I wonder why the author thinks Pattaya is an island?

Moldova's 'first dog' bites Austrian president on the hand during official visit

Biting the hand of friendship took on a literal meaning during an official visit by Austria's president to Moldova when the country's "first dog" nipped him.

But the canine breach of international protocol failed to sour relations and Alexander van der Bellen showed all was forgiven by later presenting Moldovan President Maia Sandu with a small toy for her rescue pet on the last day of his trip.

I guess we should consider ourselves lucky that the big guy's dog, Commander, didn't bite Xi Jinping while he was here.

Roman emperor was trans woman, declares museum

"call me not Lord, for I am a Lady"

Elagabalus identified as a woman and explicitly stated preferred pronouns, highlighting the existence of pronouns throughout history.
https://ground.news/article/roman-em...-museum_deed6b
https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainme...edium=referral

I remember reading this pulp trade novel when I was a teenager, I thought it was another Conan style, sword and sorcery, I was a bit shocked to say the least.


Child of the Sun
Mass Market Paperback – October 1, 1972

Child of the Sun by Kyle Onstott & Lance Horner (1966)
Overview: This brilliant and brutally intimate novel accurately captures the depravity and intrigue of Ancient Rome. It tells the story of the youth Varius Avitus Bassianus, destined to become Emperor of the Roman empire. Varius spurned women. His erotic longings searched out a very different kind of love. Whatever or whomever he fancied was quickly offered to him. And no man, be he soldier or citizen, dared refuse him. As his perverted passions grew more and more bizarre, even the voluptuaries of Rome recoiled in horror.

Elagabalus (Latin: Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus; c. 203 – 11 March 222), also known as Heliogabalus, was Roman Emperor from 218 to 222. A member of the Severan Dynasty, he was Syrian, the second son of Julia Soaemias and Sextus Varius Marcellus. In his early youth he served as a priest of the god Elagabal (in Latin, Elagabalus) in the hometown of his mother's family, Emesa. As a private citizen, he was probably named Sextus Varius Avitus Bassianus. Upon becoming emperor he took the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. He was called Elagabalus only after his death.
Genre: Erotic MM | Historical Fiction

I always knew that celebrities were a bunch of bleeding nutters, put the silly bitch in a padded cell for a month as paying all that money out to look like a gargoyle has sent her round the twist.

Colombia starts sterilising hippos descended from drug kingpin Pablo Escobar's pets


The hippos spread from Escobar's estate into nearby rivers, where they flourished.

There are now more than 100 of them, prompting the government's plan to control the population.

Two male hippos and one female have been surgically sterilised, environmental authorities said.

The government plans to sterilise 40 hippos a year, transfer others to different countries, and may euthanise some of the animals.

Hand-painted sugar hibiscus flowers for pudding, candelabras shaped like serpent-entwined apple trees (and a secret wood-encased electric heater to keep Their Majesties warm!) An exquisite peek behind the scenes of the latest Palace banquet...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art....html#comments

There's only one word I can use for all that extravagance. OBSCENE.
