Playing The Long Game

Woman Attends Funerals for Two Years Hoping to Catch Undertaker’s Eye

After falling for the local undertaker, a Brazilian woman spent two years attending funerals in her community in hopes of catching the man’s eye. Daniela Signor and Apollo Scariot surprised a lot of people when they arrived at their wedding venue in a funeral hearse, but to those who knew their unusual love story, the choice made perfect sense. Daniela first laid eyes on Apollo in early 2023, while attending the funeral service of a deceased relative, and immediately knew she had to do everything she could to draw his attention. He was the funeral director and seemed to be too focused on his job to notice her, but she didn’t let that discourage her. Every three months or so, she would attend funerals in her community just to see Apollo and hopefully get seen by him. It took a while, but her strategy actually worked.
***
It took a while, but Daniela caught Apollo’s eye at some point, and after dating for a while, the two tied the knot last month. They arrived in a hearse because it just fitted their story so well, but they made sure to explain it to everyone. “Everyone at the wedding was shocked, but during our vows, we explained everything – we read out our story,” Daniela said. “Then people understood why I arrived in the hearse.”

Gotta respect the effort. She saw what she wanted, and she got it!

It's that time of the week - when we turn the ONT over to our good friend Piper for a bit. Here's this week's fashion pr0n.

------
Dive in! It is Swimsuit Time!

Miami Swim Week happened this week, giving us insight into this season’s swimwear trends. But first, a quick history of the swimsuit.

In the 1800s swim costumes were modest, but not very functional. They were made of wool or flannel, which means heavy and hot.

When did swimwear start to become scandalous? 1907. Australian Swimmer Annette Kellerman made waves (😊 by wearing a form fitting one piece suit.

The 1930s were a pivotal moment in the history of swimwear. It brought us Ester Williams and a glamorized beach culture by Hollywood. The 30s also brought a new fabric- Lastex- that was stretchy and had rubberized yarn, revolutionizing swimwear.

Ester Williams

The two piece was not called a bikini until 1946 when French designer Louis Réard debuted the “bikini,” named after the Bikini Atoll nuclear test site for its “explosive” impact. The daring two-piece, exposing the midriff and navel, shocked the world and was initially banned in many places.

The first bikini

By the 1950s, the bikini gained traction, thanks to Hollywood icons like Brigitte Bardot, who popularized it on the French Riviera.

Brigitte Bardot

Fast forward to today and the 2025 trend reveal. Big this year?

Mermaidcore:

Oseree LUMIÈRE SHELL MAILLOT

Retro vibes, swim skirts and swim shorts, which is a refreshing change from the micro bottoms that have been trending recently.

Brown and white polkadot micro skirt from Montce

Retro bikini by Leslie Amon

Pinks and reds:

Tommy Bahama Island Cays Color Block Tank (this style has tummy control if you care about that).

Straps and strappy looks:

Network News Alina Fly Away swim dress by Miraclesuit.

Which suit is most flattering for your body type?

With that, I am of the opinion the suit that you think is pretty is the one that is best for you. If you like the print / color and you are comfortable with the coverage, wear it with confidence.

------

Thanks once again, Piper!

The ONT is kinda curious

This could be interesting

I once heard discussion about this on morning radio. One of the hosts said "I Donald Duck it" - shirt and nothing else. So he's a #4 guy. Any of you care to reveal your preference?

Another question - socks or no socks when sleeping?

In case you're wondering -- I'm a 3 with no socks guy.

While the nipples are not exposed (at least theoretically) so not bare breasts, breast-feeding seems to fall into another category altogether. Besides the obvious.

Anyway, being an old man with a bad back, it takes me longer to enter or exit a vehicle than, say, Bo and Luke Duke. In the three or four minutes it took, at least four separate customers entered none of whom will ever see the sunny side of 60 ever again and no one below 60 entered. That's right.

99 There is a ginormous storm system moving through OK and NE TX, which will probably get to me around midnight. Hopefully the covers for all the critters will stay in place.

I spent this last weekend at a fire-ranger style three story "off grid" cabin just north of Broken Bow, OK called "Phoenix Rising". The bedroom is above the tree canopy on top of the mountain and the windows are uninterrupted around the perimeter.

The past two nights were some of the most spectacular heavenly laser-light-show in full surround. Can see for miles and miles 360 degrees. Sat outside on the balcony with the perfect breeze watching the storms come in and pass by to the north and south, and then directly overhead.

I'm still in awe.

Oh yeah. One of my cases was an very successful MD that fathered a child with a druggie he met at a bar. He copped to his indiscretion but didn't want the monthly reminder of the support so wrote her a monster check for 18 years worth of child support to be rid of the obligation.

Skank sniffed it all up her nose in no time and drug him back into court. Guess what? The judge ruled that the kid was going to suffer due to mom's penury and ordered him to pay up again.

205 There is a public policy reason for making a father responsible for his child, no matter the circumstances of the birth. The mother in these cases has primary care; but if something happens to her (death or unfitness) then the responsibility for caring for the child would fall on the State. The State says “wait a minute! If there’s a living parent, no matter the circumstances, then that parent gets the bill before we do!”
That isn’t a matter of justice and has nothing to do with fairness; it’s just a public policy decision to lower the burden on the State.

267 Below approx. 80 degrees: knee-length nightgown, short-sleeved (I own three, of varying weights; which one I wear is based on the outside temperature).

80-100 degrees: tank top or #10

Socks when around 40 degrees or below.

Swimwear: I'm the "astonishing athlete" shape, but I stopped wearing bikinis in my fifties. I have no interest in publicly exposing my middle anymore.

I just stumbled across something interesting: Missing Stars.

Comparisons of older sky surveys from about 70 years ago vs modern one have found ~100 stars, most of them in the Milky Way with a few in the Magellanic Clouds that have just disappeared with no explanation.

And they've found some stellar looking objects that have just appeared over the same comparison. It's an open question about what's going, with all sorts of theories.

The supposed-stars that disappeared were actually inbound alien ships firing their engines to decelerate into the solar system. Makes them look like stars in Earth telescopes. They are now in one of their bases in Antarctica. The new stellar looking objects are the next wave of inbound alien ships, firing their engines to decelerate.

343 Meanwhile, in Ukraine:
1. The Russians tried to return the bodies of 6000 KIA. The Ukrainians refused to accept them. Internet speculation is that accepting the bodies would force the Ukrainians to pay compensation to the dead soldiers' families, and thus bankrupt the Government. This doesn't seem plausible, seeing how hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian troops have already died. Be it as it may, this is supposedly adversely affecting morale in units that are being fed into the meat grinder.
2. The US diverted a bunch of anti aircraft missiles, which were scheduled to go to Ukraine, to instead protect US forces in the Middle Easy. Zelensky is not happy.
3. The first Russians have crossed into Dnipro oblast, which is a very big deal, as this is territory which they had not previously claimed.

345 They tried to portray morals and tradition as prudish and oppressive, but it turns out those societal mores were holding everything together. Definitely not perfect, but several thousand years experience clearly showed what worked and what didn’t. I suppose Penicillin G was about as consequential as “the Pill” or concurrent.

Financially speaking, at the individual level and at the community level, Marriage meant that males could not have multiple women, and must remain true - one life, one wife - and, must support any issue that results from said conjugation. By the same token he was not responsible for children that weren’t his.

The spook agencies worked very quickly in the post world war era to blow all this up. The judiciary, education, and other infiltrated institutions and the usual suspects all played their roles.

There is almost zero incentive for a modern male to get married, it is a veritable minefield, and purposefully made so.

Another reported agreement in Istanbul was to return seriously wounded POWs, and to work out procedures for temp/local ceasefires to recover KIA in the field. Don't know if those have gone anywhere.

As Idaho Spud noted, Russian ground forces went beyond administrative boundary of Donetsk oblast (DNR) last few days, for first time. "Big red arrows" on the map, huge breakthroughs and line collapses, still seem unlikely. But the Russian glacier keeps grinding forward, mostly. Up north it's more mixed, but it's all taking place on Uke home-court, thanks to their stupid incursion into Kursk.

100% concur. Both my parents were (and one still is) complete fooking retards about culture, civil rights, the Constitution, and duty. Dax tried to do the right thing in '66-'67 and volunteer as an Army Chaplain. Young-ish me remembers the household warfare between the two Silent Gen. parents. I basically matured on active duty under the mentoring of some very solid Vietnam Veteran senior NCOs. Parents give kids a home and a foundation to grow from. The kids will either build on that foundation or jack hammer it to little pieces.

Dad accepted my path about 30 years ago. We grew so much closer after that. Mom is still a damned hippie liberal asshole, but i love her 85. She's never accepted that I'm a constitutionalist first, and always, but she still loves the breakaway kid she raised.

420 Dude, they’re closing in on a million. War’s been going on for over three years now. This is based on extensive evidence, including official reported totals, on-the-ground video, and graveyard estimates from satellite photos.

Ukraine have a population of around 40M. They've got less then a million deployed. Generally a country can deploy around 10% of their population in a major war. So you'd expect the Ukes to be deploying 4X as many troops as they are.

Well...except for the fact the US is providing more money then their peace time economy produced, which means they could in theory deploy all their fighting age men - the USSR wasn't quite as lavishly funded in WWII, but they got over 30%.

So if the Ukes should have between 4 and 12 million men in the field, where are the "missing" 3M+?

Some are fighting for the Russians, though as far as I can tell western sources put that as less then 100K. So where are these millions of missing men...if they aren't casualties?

Some have fled, but you also have to remember Ukraine’s weird conscription policies. They weren’t conscripting those under 25.. I think they still haven’t started. And there’s lots of videos of 40-somethings being kidnapped and showing up on the frontline.

That said, Russia’s deployed even fewer troops, which seems odd for such a big country.

But it also makes it obvious the Ukie and NATO estimates of nearly 1 million Russian casualties can’t be even close to true.

No evidence of riot in Long Beach. No effect on traffic. The uprising could have been on Mars.

Vlad's problems are different then Lil Z's. Vlad has to make the war a small thing for most of the Russian populace - like the WoT for the US. If he makes it look like WWII he might have internal problems. He's got most of the land he wants, so he needs an army large enough to hold that and no more. Sure there is a risk if he underestimates but...a risk if he overestimates too

Lil Z though, at least prior to Trump, only had to appease the war supporters in the EU and US. The best way to do that is having large forces on the field able to push back the Russians. One would assume the only gate on fielding that four million man army would be getting them basic training with western uniforms, western guns, and eating western food - so he could not field them all in 2022, but should have been able to by late 2023 - unless those men are causalities/fled in the mean time.

I can't find any sources on who paid for them to be in Canada though - some mention local charities, but you'd need bigger players for that many people, either the Canuck government, wealthy Americans, or Soviet controlled NGOs.

But with potential Uke draft dodgers who would be paying for them to live in Poland or Romania? I don't think Russian aligned NGOs would be allowed there, and I don't think the US or EU would pay for it either. And Ukraine is a very poor country - its not older Ukes could afford to pay for their relatives to live abroad either.

The coffee is easier than the server. And the customer.

You need baristas who can withstand the 1300+ PSI (90+ atmospheres) of pressure on the surface of Venus. And the 800-900 degree heat.

But you could probably find a way to serve coffee at 30-40 degrees below room temperature if you could find such a person.

Yesterday on our drive on I-80, Wydot had a warning for most of I-80 that campers of a certain weight were barred from driving on the interstate due to high winds.

Wydot is excellent in their warnings. We saw several campers being towed who ignored the warnings. It was scary driving out there with the assholes who do whatever the hell they want to. Several campers being towed were swerving all over the road.

It's an example of people doing whatever the hell they want to do.

My understanding:

- Trump is using Federal troops to protect Federal property from insurrectionists. Presumably they will be used in future ICE raids. If Trump is smart, he’ll keep the ICE raids going in spite of the insurrection.

- CA gov’t is encouraging insurrectionists.

- Rioting is mostly a local issue, for now. With Federal property and ICE secured, Trump has less latitude in putting down the riots himself. He may, but responsibility for public order mostly falls on state/local gov’t.

- I haven’t seen any indication LAPD is being ordered to actively stop ICE, which would be a major escalation. Mostly they’re just ordered not to help. For the most part that’s legal.

Maybe no so much. You used the word insurrection. So did Democrats in 2020. It has a specific meaning.

If it truly is an insurrection Trump has expanded powers under federal law.

The second one, Sec. 252 is about rebellion/insurrection against federal authority.

The first one, Sec. 253, is about when there's a total breakdown of law and order, and the state and local officials are unable or unwilling to restore order. Note the "shall" wording. That implies the President is required by law to restore order. Sitting back and allowing some locality in the United States to descend into anarchy is not an option.

Yes, but 1 is definitely less well-established legally. What constitutes deprivation of a right, privilege, immunity, etc.? Stare laws restricting firearm ownership are unconstitutional, but I don’t foresee Trump calling out the Marines to end every state-level gun law. Would be cool if he did.

Right, but Ike was enforcing Federal law. It was a SCOTUS ruling.

He wasn’t thrilled with that decision. He was fine with ending segregation, but thought the responsibility lay with Congress, not Federal judges. He didn’t like the idea of using Federal troops to enforce a SCOTUS ruling, so he gave Congress time to act and provide a structure for desegregation.

Congress ducked the issue, of course, lol.

545 Thor went to Catholic school K-8 in Paramount. He grew up in Bellflower, which is adjacent. If the rioting is only in Paramount and one section in L.A. proper, it really isn't that big of a deal.

Seems to me that whoever is behind this was hoping it would spread like the Rodney King riots did. But most native born Hispanics are not on the side of illegals, and the decent illegals don't want any part of this bullshit, either. They're either long gone or laying low. And they all gotta get up and go b to work tomorrow, regardless of legal status.

These are by far mostly Soros/pantifa types, or the purely evil illegals who came in specifically to cause trouble and destabilize the country.

Trump doesn't need to go ham on this, as far as mowing them all down. I'm fine with the NG being called in, and keepin things under control, but it's not time to release the kraken.

Excellent synopses. I used to go into that area a lot for work, visiting all the aerospace metal processors. There are some nice little neighborhoods scattered around there.

Like during the Palisades and Altadena fires earlier this year, I think people just don't grasp just how vast an area 'L.A.' encompasses and how little of it is actually City of L.A.

And just like after the 1994 Northridge earthquake, my out-of-state parents were quite concerned for our safety until they realized the news was showing the same burning train car and collapsed building over and over.
