This complaint occurs more often than one may think when it comes to casual sex.

When the relationship is based on fantasy, with the majority of the conversation taking place virtually, between two strangers.

A lot can go wrong on those dating and hook up apps, and more often than not, a lot of things do go wrong.

Wind turbine blades could be recycled into gummy bears, scientists say

Researchers design composite resin for blades that can be broken down to make new products including sweets


Because... Experts Say.

'The next generation of wind turbine blades could be recycled into gummy bears at the end of their service, scientists
have said. Researchers at Michigan State University have made a composite resin for the blades by combining glass
fibres with a plant-derived polymer and a synthetic one.

Once the blades have reached the end of their lifespan the materials can be broken down and recycled to make new
products including turbine blades – and chewy sweets.

Wind power is one of the dominant forms of renewable energy. However, turbine blades, usually made of fibreglass,
can be as long as half a football field and cause problems with disposal, with many discarded in landfills when they
reach the end of their use cycle. To combat the waste, researchers designed a new form of resin. Digesting the resin
in an alkaline solution produced potassium lactate, which can be purified and made into sweets and sports drinks.

“We recovered food-grade potassium lactate and used it to make gummy bear candies, which I ate,” said John Dorgan,
one of the authors of the paper. The alkaline digestion also released poly(methyl methacrylate), or PMMA, a common
acrylic material used in windows and car taillights.

On eating gummy bears that are derived from a wind turbine, Dorgan says “a carbon atom derived from a plant, like corn
or grass, is no different from a carbon atom that came from a fossil fuel. It’s all part of the global carbon cycle, and we’ve
shown that we can go from biomass in the field to durable plastic materials and back to foodstuffs.”

He added: “The beauty of our resin system is that at the end of its use cycle, we can dissolve it, and that releases it from
whatever matrix it’s in so that it can be used over and over again in an infinite loop. That’s the goal of the circular economy.”
Researchers will present their results on Tuesday at a meeting of the American Chemical Society.
They plan to make some blades for field testing...'

Amazing ideas and crazy ideas always look good on paper. The problem with them is that we are human and extremely sort sighted.

We don't have ability to foretell the future. Anything that goes beyond the next second is a crap shoot because there are too many variables that we can't control.

One of the reasons that we keep getting crap wrong, or we just muck it up.

MAKING KISS-TORY I have the world’s biggest lips after having 30 ACID injections
–and now I am planning to get even more surgery

'A Barbie doll wannabe who has had 30 acid injections to get the "world's biggest lips" is planning on getting even more surgery.
Andrea Ivanova, 23, from Bulgaria, claims to have set the record for the whopping number of hyaluronic acid injections in her lips.


Strong and brave Andrea, sticks to the window on a bus with the best of 'em.

Andrea has also had her cheeks "enlarged" and is "shaping her chin and jawline and elongating my face and reshaping it with
different dermal fillers". She previously vowed that nothing will stop her from super-sizing her lips even more - although they are
already so huge they nearly block her nostrils. And she now plans to boost her breasts by going under the knife in Turkey or Germany.
Andrea has previously increased her breast size from a 75C to a 75E cup – but wants to increase her boobs to an H cup.

She told the Daily Star: "I have done all my interventions and procedures in the city where I live, in Sofia, but I plan to have my
next surgery for even bigger breasts done in Turkey or in Germany, because there are quite good specialists in these countries as well."
Andrea began her shocking transformation into a real-life Barbie in 2018.

Her doctor previously warned her to pay attention to any pain in her huge lips, as future procedures could potentially be “fatal”.
Despite the risks – and the complications that come with having huge lips, such as eating meals – she insists she can't get enough
of acid jabs. Andrea's striking look has drawn a fan base of more than 20,000 followers - and she said her wealthy fans often want
to treat her to world travel.

“Every day many different fans from all over the world send me thousands of messages on my social networks and invite me to
vacation in different countries and even continents," she said. "But I haven't gone on vacation with my fan yet, but maybe one day
I will go."

The filler fan, who travels a lot for work and pleasure, said she gets both positive and negative reactions from other travellers.
"There are always positive and negative reactions... people always turn to look at me, comment on me, whisper to each other,"
she said. "Some even point fingers at me, they discuss me, they discuss my appearance, some whistle at me, there are those
who laugh, make fun of me, and of course, there are people who come up to me and congratulate me and want to take pictures
with me. "Wherever I go, there are always people willing to take pictures with me, which is wonderful for me."...'

Rats, Hope, and Despair at The End of the World.

....
The Beautiful Ones

I can’t help but think that this place is the human version of The Rat Utopia. In 1958, John Calhoun, an ethologist, started to build his Rat Utopia with the help of the National Institute of Mental Health. (The Secret of NIMH & MKULTRA mad science) They purchased property in Maryland for Calhoun to turn into his experimental rat heaven.

Calhoun would drop rats into a pre-fab world where food and water and shelter was always available. He’d keep them free from disease and watch the population grow. He noticed behavioral patterns emerge as the population increased, and as the “overcrowding” persisted he came up with the idea of the “behavioral sink.” This meant that at a certain point, due to population density, a civilization would collapse under its own weight.

“Behavioral sink,” I think, is just another way of saying the end of the world as we know it. By the late 1960s, Calhoun eventually turned his rat heavens into mouse heavens. The peak of these utopia universes became what he called Universe 25. He would drop eight mice — four males, four females — into one of his “universes.” Once again, these universes would be free of any need and any disease. The mice would be allowed to live a life unconcerned with the savagery of the wild world. The only limitation that these mice would eventually be confronted with was that of space. The population would double in size every 55 days.

I wondered what an evolutionary biologist would have to say about hope, despair, rat experiments, and the end of humanity, so I reached out to Bret Weinstein. (Weinstein and his wife Heather Heying have a forthcoming book called A Hunter-Gatherer’s Guide to the 21st Century: Evolution and the Challenges of Modern Life.)

The Hope Experiment

When I try to look at humanity as a whole, it seems like becoming a risk averse species will be our downfall. We must be able to mitigate risk and fear with hope and culture in order to send the next generation into the chaos of existence.

But none of that really matters if a majority of us have become, or are becoming, the beautiful ones. Weinstein points to birth control as an invention that might be something that’s led to what Calhoun would’ve called the “equilibrium.”
...
“Well, I’ll tell you what,” Weinstein said. “I think our hope needs to be decoupled from the actual evidence that there’s a positive ending to all this.”

I think the "beautiful ones" are not just some of the elites to NY socialites & Hollywood actors, but also many of these prominent young Youtubers & Tik Tok'ers with the beautifying filters that have traumatized themselves due to mass media psychosis (psychological effects of density in confined space) into becoming part of John Calhoun's mouse utopia universes. I think we are entering the behavioral sink..It's happening, has happened. Since Covid started much of the population (5yrs old to 90) have probably uploaded much of our identities to big tech/intel apparatus than perhaps ever in the history of the Internet. The Internet is the real space now, the Matrix has captured many, like a spider web, but many are still unaware, horribly divided, lost souls that refuse to wake up. The Internet is a 'web' and we all know the purpose of a web.

With wealthy Ruskies falling out of windows recently, it seems those at 'Bed, Bath & Beyond' want a piece of the action too!

Bed Bath & Beyond finance chief falls to his death in NY



'Authorities in New York City have confirmed the death of Bed Bath & Beyond's chief financial officer.
Police say 52-year-old Gustavo Arnal fell from a Manhattan skyscraper known as the "Jenga" tower on Friday.

Mr Arnal joined the company in May 2020 during the pandemic, and previously worked at cosmetic brand Avon and consumer
goods giant Procter & Gamble. The big-box chain in the US has been facing financial trouble, recently announcing store closures
and job cuts. Shares in the company have been volatile, being viewed as a "meme" stock driven by social media buzz rather than
traditional economic sentiment.

"The entire Bed Bath & Beyond organization is profoundly saddened by this shocking loss," said Harriet Edelman, chair of the board
at the company. "Gustavo will be remembered by all he worked with for his leadership, talent and stewardship of our company," she
said. "I am proud to have been his colleague, and he will be truly missed by all of us at Bed Bath & Beyond and everyone who had
the pleasure of knowing him."

Bed Bath & Beyond made headlines recently after activist investor Ryan Cohen announced in late August that he was abruptly selling
all of his stock in the company.

Mr Arnal and Mr Cohen have been named in a lawsuit which has been filed against Bed, Bath & Beyond by shareholders. It claims
that the company's share price had been recently artificially inflated and Bragar Eagel & Squire, the law firm leading the class action,
alleges: "Insiders profited at least $110m from their insider sales."

Bed Bath & Beyond said it was "in the early stages of evaluating the complaint but, based on current knowledge, the company believes
the claims are without merit". The home and bath goods company has been struggling for some time due to a slump in sales and growing
debt. The retailer has warned of a 26% drop in same-store sales between April and June.

Bed Bath & Beyond also hired a new chief executive, Mara Sirhal, last month to help the struggling retailer...'

Man jailed after police notice teddy bear 'breathing'

"He's now stuffed behind bars"

'A teenager wanted for nicking a car was found hiding INSIDE a teddy bear by stunned cops. Police were looking for Joshua
Dobson, 18, over the theft of a Mitsubishi ASX in May and not paying for petrol on the same day. And whilst searching for
him at an address, baffled officers said they heard the bear "breathing." After examing it they then found he was "stuffed
inside."

The toy had been cut open and Dobson, from Rochdale, had somehow managed to squeeze himself inside the lining in a
bid to evade detection. He was arrested and was last week sentenced to nine months behind bars, police said.


Dobson's choice and an image of what may happen to the young lad's ass whilst in prison!

Sharing the extraordinary arrest on Facebook page, GMP Rochdale said: "A wanted car thief who tried using a teddy bear
to hide from our neighbourhood cops out looking for him last month has been put behind bars for nine months.
"Joshua Dobson, 18, from the #Spotland area of the town, was sought by us after stealing a car in May and not paying
for fuel that same day.

"When we went to arrest him, our officers noticed a large bear breathing in the address before finding Dobson hidden inside!
"He's now stuffed behind bars after being sentenced last week for theft of a motor vehicle, driving while disqualified, and
making off from a petrol station without payment."

GMP* added on Twitter: "Our neighbourhood task force and divisional tasking team in #Rochdale could bearely believe what
they stumbled across last month in search for a wanted man... We certainly had a more than bearable time bringing to justice
one of the town's thieves last week!"
(*Greater Manchester Police)

Court documents show Dobson, of Airhill Terrace, Rochdale, was sentenced to a total of 32 weeks in prison for a series of
offences at Manchester Magistrates' Court last Friday, August 5.

They included theft of the Mitsubishi, valued at £8,500, and its keys, driving whilst disqualified, driving without insurance
and making off from a petrol station without payment, on Saturday, May 21 this year. According to the documents he was
also sentenced for taking a Vauxhall Astra van without consent, driving whilst disqualified, driving without insurance, theft
of a toolbox and two tablets and criminal damage, all on March 3 this year and was also banned from driving for 27 months...'

For a second there... I was worried. With energy prices supposedly soaring and the need for the world to cut back on
using electricity, many of the stereotypical old people might freeze this winter. *BIAD, ignore the fact that winter isn't
the same everywhere*

But still, when Mr Freeze comes to to pick-off old Mrs Miggins, who yer' gonna to call?

Octopus Energy giving away free electric blankets from today
The energy firm is giving out 10,000 electric blankets to those in financial need.

'Octopus Energy is offering customers free electric blankets this winter to help the most vulnerable stay warm, and save
money. Electric blankets can be a cheaper way of keeping warm instead of relying on central heating.

With UK households facing average energy bills of £2,500 each month, many consumers are looking at cheaper, alternative
ways to keep warm, and make savings where possible. Many energy providers are offering support and the government launched
The Energy Price Guarantee which will reduce the unit cost of electricity and gas so that a typical household in the UK pays, on
average, around £2,500 a year on their energy bill, for the next two years, from 1 October 2022.

Octopus Energy is going one step further though by giving away 10,000 electric blankets to those in the most financial need, building
on the success of their similar scheme last year. The offer aims to help elderly people, or those with specific medical conditions which
make them immobile, very unwell, or feel cold...'

I understand Finns, but has energy become more costly or have the prices been increased? The two are separate, but I know what you mean.

I give you a good umbrella term for all of this price increase shit festival. All the inflation. Why food costs more. Why electricity costs more. Why everything costs more. Greed. Pure greed.

Those who sell something, like food or electricity, are rubbing their hands together with lust for money in their eyes. Pumping all prices full of air, maximizing their own profits, using the war as an excuse.

You know, i honestly thought about not paying. 170 euros, 2 months of electricity. I made plans and everything. Books in candlelight. FM radio that works with batteries. Instant coffee powder mixed into hot tap water. Room temperature beer. Beans straight from the jar, other veggies also. But that would have also meant no internet. And no internet means no life. So i had to put my rebel spirit aside and pay for having something that distantly resembles life.

'Time traveller' from 2236 says scientists bring back 70ft megalodon shark in 2023

A mysterious TikToker who claims to be a time traveller has shared a series of warnings from the future,
including the megalodon coming back, aliens being found and a meteor hitting Earth



'A self-proclaimed time traveller from 2236 has claimed that scientists will bring back the massive but extinct megalodon
shark next year. The unknown TikToker, who shares warnings from the future on the @realtiktoktimetraveller account,
also warned that a meteor will smash into Earth in 2034. But not before we discover signs of alien life in 2025.

Although many social media users laughed off the claims, others were alarmed at the apocalyptic vision of our future.
The time traveller wrote: "I am a real time traveller from the year 2236 and I have come to a date in time to warn you
about upcoming events in the next few years.

"In 2022, scientists discover a way to bring the megaladon (shark) through using its DNA and they create a real megaldon
in 2023 and surprisingly nothing goes wrong. "In 2025, scientists discover signs of life on two different planets and they
are proven to be more advanced than humans.
"A meteor will come down to Earth in 2034 and will wipe out half of America [sic]."

Megalodon sharks went extinct some 3.6million years ago, although some conspiracy theorists reckon they still lurk in the
depths of our oceans. Weighing around 100 tons and measuring nearly 70ft in length, they would be the biggest sea predator
on the planet if the animals were still around.

Unfortunately for those wanting to lay their eyes on a megalodon next year, the mystery TikToker has thus far provided no
evidence that they really are from the future.

John Titor time traveler from the year 2036 returns.

The house in question is located in Gainesville, Texas and owned by Linda Hill. According to an interview with the state’s WFAA news station, Hill and her husband learned that their Denton St. property was home to things that go bump (and grind) in the night after being unable to rent it to tenants for any longer than six months.

Hill didn’t believe stories that the tenants were leaving so quickly because the house was haunted until she experienced the terror for herself. While taking a shower at the home one day, she witnessed “a dark figure” on the other side of the curtain, which whispered, “Lookin’ good!” Hill thought it was her husband paying her the compliment, but he soon entered the bathroom to ask who she was talking to.

And so, from this day forward, Hill has believed the house is haunted by ghosts that are, in her words, “sexual.” In WFAA’s video segment—which we highly recommend watching from start to finish for these quotes and reporter Sean Giggy’s concluding skit—Hill goes on to explain that people have also recorded EVPs “where the ghosts can be heard talking dirty in the house.” The horny specters have, she says, called out from beyond the grave to say things like, “Oh baby, oh baby, yeah” and, “Yeah, I like it like that.”

I believe -but don't quote me on it, that there's an apprenticeship-style of appointments in the Ghost-forming community.
Orbs are the goal to aim for and yet many prefer to stick it out in the sheet and door-banging area. Luckily, the TV shows
also favour this kind of scaring activity.

RETURN OF THE GIMP Masked weirdo in latex bodysuit returns to terrorise a quiet village

'A masked weirdo clad in a black latex bodysuit has returned to terrorise a quiet village, say police. The pervert -dubbed “Gimp Man” -walked
up to Kiera Elston, 19, and her boyfriend as they walked home at 1am. It was the 16th sighting of the sinister mystery man since 2018 in and
near Yatton in Somerset.


Let's hope he's washed it since last year.

Teaching assistant Kiera, who fled home with her boyfriend, said: “It was the most terrifying experience of my life. “I’ve got the image in my head
of him walking towards me and staring.“I dread to think what would have happened if I’d been on my own. "I’m still really shaken up by it."
One woman managed to take a snap of the gimp in 2019.

Two men were arrested that year on suspicion of indecency but no one was charged. Police said a search turned up nothing after Sunday’s latest
sighting...'

As the night of Ghosts and Goblins draws nearer, the fiend in the rubber-suit steps out of the shadows once more.

Pictured: Gimp Man 'is spotted flopping to the floor, writhing and grunting by stunned 19-year-old'
as police arrest man in his 30s in hunt for bodysuited figure who has terrified Somerset villages

*Teen claims he had encounter with man wearing 'gimp suit' in Cleeve, Somerset
*The man dressed in a bodysuit 'arched his body and flopped to the ground'
*Now the 19-year-old says the 'invisible threat' is causing fear in the community
*Police have arrested a man in his 30s and are carrying out extra patrols


Flipping and flopping better than any politician.

'A teenager says he had a 'freaky' late night encounter with a man wearing a 'gimp suit' who was 'unpredictable,
flopping to the floor, writhing and grunting'. The 19-year-old says he initially thought the unknown man was drunk
when he allegedly approached him and his friend in Cleeve, North Somerset, at about 00.25 on Tuesday.

He claims the man 'took a step up on the pavement, arched his body and flopped to the ground, without putting
his hands out to catch himself'. Similar sightings of a person wearing a full body suit with a face covering have
previously been reported in nearby villages Claverham and Yatton in 2019, 2021 and 2022.

In the latest incident, the teen, who did not want to be named, described the man as dressed in a shiny, dark
bodysuit spanning from head to toe which was covered in mud, along with blue latex gloves.
He told the BBC the man had an 'earthy' smell that remained even after he had gone.

'I don't want this guy to be seen as a bogey man...but this kind of thing, this invisible threat that he could be
anywhere…it's indirectly causing fear,' the teenager added. 'It's not just about the encounter, but the effect it
has in waves through the community. It's quite gut-wrenching.'

The teen said they felt worried and in shock but because of the 'absurdity' of the incident also ended up laughing. 
Officers raced to the scene along with a dog unit and police helicopter and carried out a search. A man in his 30s
was arrested from an address in the local area on suspicion of causing a public nuisance. He has since been
released on bail but is subject to a night-time curfew, and is not allowed to leave his home between 9pm and 6am.

Acting Inspector Lee Kerslake, of the neighbourhood policing team, said: 'We responded quickly to this report due
to its similarity with other previous incidents which have caused significant alarm and distress to members of the public.

'No one has been physically harmed during any of these incidents but we know they have caused concern to the local
community and we are determined to identify the individual or individuals responsible and stop them. 'We continue to
keep an open mind about the intentions of the man on Millier Road and whether the incident is linked to any others.

'To reassure the community, we will be carrying out extra patrols in the area and anyone concerned about this, or any
other incident, is encouraged to speak to an officer. 'Anyone who saw a man acting suspiciously in the Cleeve, Claverham
or Yatton areas overnight Monday/Tuesday or has CCTV, doorbell footage or dashcam which could help our inquiry is
asked to get in touch.'

It comes after 19-year-old Kiera Elston and her boyfriend Lewis Webb encountered a masked man dressed in a gimp
suit while walking home in the village of Yatton at around 1am on June 26. The pair were left terrified by the creepy
occurrence and ran away to get away from the bizarre man, who Kiera says looked 'proud' with his arms outstretched.

'It was the most terrifying experience of my life,' she told the Daily Star after the incident.
