Honestly I went to someone’s house here in Texas and it was set on 77, I would likely have to excuse myself quickly.
77 too hot? Man humidity is awful.
She kind of reminds me of Denise Richards in wild things now.
That is insane. I refuse to believe that is her.
No one in that family has spent under 6 figures in cosmetic surgery. None of them look anything like they did a decade ago.

Not sure why she would spend so much money to downgrade her appearance.

This is giving me Vibes about what it Really Means to be online a lot. No-one does that to themselves who doesn’t expect to be stared at their every waking hour.

Lot more than a couple of kg lighter. At least double digits. That’s by far the main difference.
Damn that’s a lot of plastic surgery.

Thing is, I don’t think she needs to be stupid for fame to do that to her.

Four decades… Of…
Am I having a stroke?
That article is something else, and very depressing. The hagiography they do on the Iraq war and its aftermath is particularly crazed. Also, what they recommend to ‘counter’ Iran, essentially that thanks to Trump military confrontation is now needed, seems bad.
Is at least a reminder that a normal president following ‘mainstream’ US foreign policy will still be blundering with military interventions around the world.
Eid Mubarak to anyone on here celebrating!

I quit after the first paragraph. Their thesis is protecting oil? Ok. Do they recognize that now there’s an oil glut (before pandemic), the US is a net exporter, and oil is ruining the Earth?
And now The American Enterprise Institute and such just openly admit that US FP, the Carter Doctrine, was a Kissinger Doctrine of just taking whatever suits us regardless of what it does?
It’s the liberal sham and it’s in every part of policy. Pretend to be the good guys. “Oppose” the bad guys only as long as you know it won’t make a difference.
The American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, known simply as the American Enterprise Institute, is a Washington, D.C.-based think tank that researches government, politics, economics, and social welfare.
This is how they describe themselves and here is one of their people saying the wonderful US FP is “get the oil”.
And then Trump is bigly continuing that policy anyway. His FP in the ME has been all about that. It was hard to be anymore about Saudi Arabia than Bush or Obama were, but Trump has probably done that.
Eta: Thesis is not that we need the oil for our own consumption, but we need to be its guarantor so we can rule the world. Gross.
Eta: They can’t decide if they like the Iran Deal or not. They want to criticize Trump, and need to say something good about it, but their mission is war with Iran.
Eta: The people who wrote this article, or their clones, will be running Joe Biden’s FP.
This is what depressed me. I don’t know enough about Biden’s team etc. to judge how likely it is, but this is clearly people auditioning or sounding out positions for his policy. I didn’t expect any incoming Biden government to have particularly good FP, but I honestly did not expect that “it’s a shame, but guess we’ll have to strike Iran” could be it.
(Probably should have, I guess)
