Oh, because she was featured in the newspaper MPFC quoted... But wow, that was a fast decline. Edit: Ah, see post above.

One of the more lasting consequences of the lockdowns was the rise of OnlyFans. The porn perfomer inflation probably made porn a much less lucrative business for the studio actors/actresses. I don't have the statistics (yet?) to measure an increase in desperate former porn stars, but I could imagine that it's a common theme - and will be so for a couple of years until the market has fully adjusted to the "self-made porn star".

Hopefully, my inbox has enough space now - you may submit your teams for March.

Oh, that's shocking. The 1990 players are childhood heroes for me... is it starting now? One by one they'll be gone?

Piggybacking on this comment because german magazine Der Spiegel writes about him: https://www.spiegel.de/gesundheit/diagnose/progerie-krankheit-hutchinson-gilford-syndrom-sammy-basso-ist-der-aelteste-junge-mann-der-welt-a-a61447ac-b786-46b0-b946-7df1d3cff68f I think I'd allow him in my pools, too. In Death By Numbers at least because of his status as "Oldest Person" of something, and the Cup because of his activism. He hasnt got a Wikipedia page yet, but I think he will, like a few others with that disease. But then his age with this disease is extremely high, like Stephen Hawking's 30+ years with ALS. So maybe death within the next 12 months isn't necessarily to be expected.

Two of Mr. Ibu's children have been arrested for stealing his health care donations: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-68098357 BBC World is now on his case, good news for that DDP team.

I'm glad he lived long enough so that his wife can post a Superbowl photo of nearby Justin Bieber: https://www.instagram.com/p/C3PJVTiAZ9I/?igsh=MWphN2N6aTFxc3R5bg==

The Carter agents in the deep state are lying to us! Edit: Though I wonder if there are ANY Carter appointments still in active service. It's been at least 43 years...

I won't follow it all that closely.

Animal, excuse me, non-human rights activist Steven Wise dies at 73: https://www.animals24-7.org/2024/02/17/nonhuman-rights-project-founder-author-steven-wise-dies-at-age-73/ Most notable for claiming the right of personhood for chimps.

I confused the threads, lol. If Jimmy Carter is a centenarian by counting the time in the womb, then a 9 inch penis measured by counting the "hidden" length inside, is fairly regular. That would have been a funny joke, but I was in the wrong thread, ahem.

Maybe he has a bell like Hector Salamanca.

Well, if you measure whats inside as well... I guess that was the joke?

Wendy Mitchell might not have cancer, but she has Alzheimer's: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/jun/18/wendy-mitchell-author-on-living-with-alzheimers

Oh no, that's sad and depressing. There kind of couldn't have been any other way though, because he would have been killed anyway if the Putin regime had shown any signs of weakness. Still, a symbol has died.

I don't seem to be missing all that much here in Armenia. (Sorry to whomever I've just doomed to death)
