A Nose Perm – yaskhan

Once there lived a man whose hair nose grew so long

It tickled his nose and made his voice sound all wrong

He took his trimmer and tried a nose perm

But then he found his nostril had hair that was too strong

Sadly he let them stay in a place where they didn’t belong.

He rather have them on his bald pate

On his head, he wanted hair to generate

And the hair botany up his nose reshaped.

Moscow police raid multiple LGBTQ+ clubs in wake of new Supreme Court ban — Meduza

Moscow police raided multiple clubs in the city that were holding events for LGBTQ+ people on Friday night, according to multiple Russian Telegram channels. The apparent crackdown came just one day after the Russian Supreme Court banned the “international LGBT movement” as an “extremist organization.”

The raids began at about 10:00 p.m. on December 1 and lasted until about 3:00 a.m. Police reportedly showed up at three establishments under the pretext of searching for drugs.

“In the middle of the party, the music stopped and [police] started coming into the rooms. There were also people from other countries at the party. At the exit, they photographed people’s passports without permission,” an eyewitness to one of the raids recounted.

Elon … A Genius? 🤣🤣🤣 I Think NOT! | Filosofa’s Word

I was actually working on a few different topics tonight when I realized that I am both physically and mentally exhausted and should leave the heaving lifting to someone else for now.  And thus I am sharing with you our friend Annie’s timely post about Elon Musk and his apparent ignorance of how businesses stay afloat.  But there’s an added bonus here, for Annie concludes with some really great short animal video clips from Twitter, so you get a double laugh … laugh at Elon’s utter stupidity, then at the creativity of some adorable furry critters!  Thank you, Annie!
