This woman (I never remembered her name) reminds me of the days before the internet, when I used to read trashy gossip magazines and she would occasionally appear in them for no other reason than that she had a lot of money and spent it on stupid things like bad plastic surgeries or a coat that "cost as much as an apartment in Manhattan."
I guess those pre internet times weren't as bitchin' as people claim them to be.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Ripken the Bat Dog. Ripken was taught how to retrieve bats starting at ten weeks old. His first debut for a team was for the Holly Springs Salamanders in 2019, where Ripken was kept as he could retrieve the bat without leaving saliva or bite marks. Ripken was later noticed by the Durham Bulls, who recruited him in 2020, and Wolfpack football, who recruited him in 2021. While working, Ripken had a GoPro camera attached to his back, which captured his retrieval from a first-person view. These videos helped Ripken to become popular on social media, which led to him featuring on The Kelly Clarkson Show in 2022, and dropping the ceremonial first puck for a Carolina Hurricanes game in 2023.

Beloved Peter, Paul, and Mary Singer Dead at 86
Peter Yarrow of the beloved Grammy-winning group Peter, Paul, and Mary has died at the age of 86.
Yarrow's publicist Ken Sunshine confirmed to USA Today that the singer died at home in New York City on Jan. 7. His daughter Bethany, who followed in his footsteps as a musician, marked his final days in a touching statement. "Our fearless dragon is tired and has entered the last chapter of his magnificent life," she said. "The world knows Peter Yarrow the iconic folk activist, but the human being behind the legend is every bit as generous, creative, passionate, playful, and wise as his lyrics suggest."

Puff, the Magic Dragon, sounds like a euphemism for smoking pot.
