It’s a whole new world out there:
And on that topic (sorta):
So get out there and hit the streets. Who knows? you may see something like that. (j/k)

Gentle Reminder
In case anyone here has been asleep for the past couple of decades, and just in case I haven’t been clear enough in the past (pictures say it best): 
Any questions?
Oh, and by the way: for the past week, I’ve been wearing a kippah every time I leave the house. Pity the fool.
Classic Beauty: Dawn Addams
Brit actress Dawn Addams was one of those beauties who wasn’t a star or anything like that: just someone who made our lives a little better by being beautiful every time we looked at her. Proof thereof:
More? Why not?
Did I mention her red hair?
Exquisite.
Silken Drapes
I have always been fascinated, not to say turned on, by the appearance of the female form when loosely covered with soft, diaphanous materials such as silk, satin or linen. Here’s an example of what I mean, that of a statue of Callipygian Venus, in the Louvre:
The nineteenth-century American sculptor William Wetmore Story specialized in the form, seen here with his Cleopatra Reclining:
…and Semiaramis:
That last pic I took myself when the statue was on display at the Dallas Museum of Art, and I stared at it for ages.
Story, by the way, had this to say about sculpture in general:
Quite so.
Nowadays, of course, such wondrous sights are few and far between, and pretty much confined to photography. Although there is this lovely picture of Mr. and Mrs. David Bowie:
…wherein even the bony Angela looks quite appealing, most such pictures seem to need backlighting:
…while most (shall we say) are more prurient:
Honestly? I prefer Story’s sculptures to all of them.
Zero Value
Here’s an interesting find:
A Ford dealership that looks stuck in time has been discovered in Germany with a selection of untouched motors still inside.
The showroom displays six 1980s modern classic cars from the blue oval brand in the window that remain unregistered today — three zero-mile Ford Sierras, a Fiesta, Escort and an Orion saloon — and given their unused condition, should be worth thousands.
Considering that almost all Ford models from the 1980s were the blandest cars ever made, that “thousands” must surely be cents and not dollars.
Here’s the Orion, for example:
I could fall asleep just looking at the picture.
News Roundup
Ahhh those good old days when women had Bettah Pharmaceuticals to stop them going batshit crazy… and speaking of batshit crazy:
...under the reign of World-Emperor Kim, there would be a similar fish tank at the Pentagon, with a long line of generals waiting their turn — starting with that traitor Mark Milley.
Moving on to the Great Cultural Assimilation Project:
...you don’t say, Hank ol’ buddy. Here’s one country that hasn’t:
...”you know how many Islamic terrorist attacks there have been in Poland? NONE.” [/quote of the day]
From the Chronicles of Nationalisation:
…
And yet we see they haven’t learned their lesson yet:
...wait: didn’t they privatize the thing in the Seventies because the State had fucked it up almost beyond redemption?
...another example of having privatized a service after nationalizing it had failed. Maybe the answer really is: [whispers] light rail transport systems don’t work in modern-day society.
Speaking of modern-day society:
...cut “her” dick and balls off, says I.
In Everybody Panic! News:
...yawn. This nearly made INSIGNIFICA. As did this:
...crabs? Hornets? What’s next? Oh yeah, it’s Global Cooling Climate Warming Change©:
...”when”? How about “if ever”?
Speaking of “Places I’d Like To See Go Underwater”:
...and Hollywood actresses go on strike over “unfair competition”.
And in other Sporting News:
[sic]
...and then the real gagging began.
Now it’s the real, honest, link-free INSIGNIFICA:

Finally, in Celebrity News:
...she’s no stranger to these pages, but here’s a brief refresher:
And on that high note, we end the roundup.
