It doesn’t matter if the MAGA movement dissolves. The country is only being partially run by Trump, there’s a new deep state we don’t know much about.…
Dave’s thesis might be dismissed as paranoid Bluanon ranting — but somebody was prepared on Jan. 20 with a fusillade of executive orders and coordinated attacks on Congress, the courts, media companies and universities. I find Dave’s theory of a New Deep State more credible than the idea that Trump coordinated it himself. Trump is a genius, but he has a very narrow range — attracting attention to himself — and he’s an incompetent clown at everything else. Trump is a man-sized toddler. He’s not running things. Somebody else is.
They know Trump is old and frail, and when the time comes they will make a deal with him to retire to Florida, immune from prosecution.… “
Margaret Yvonne Middleton (September 1, 1922 – January 8, 2007), known professionally as Yvonne De Carlo. Film and television actress, dancer and singer. She became a Hollywood film star in the 1940s and 1950s, made several recordings, and later acted on television and stage.
In 1964 she signed a contract with Universal Studios to perform the female lead role in The Munsters opposite Fred Gwynne. She was also the producers’ choice to play Lily Munster when Joan Marshall, who played the character (originally called “Phoebe”), was dropped from consideration for the role. When De Carlo was asked how a glamorous actress could succeed as a ghoulish matriarch of a haunted house, she replied simply, “I follow the directions I received on the first day of shooting: ‘Play her just like Donna Reed.’" She sang and played the harp in at least one episode (“Far Out Munsters”) of The Munsters.
After The Munsters, she guest-starred in “The Moulin Ruse Affair” in The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. (1967) and “The Raiders” for Custer (1967) and episodes of The Virginian. (Wikipedia)

Like literally the most famous song about how much girls love jewellry is just explaining the importance of getting jewellry for when your partner leaves you penniless and alone.
The founder of Girl Scouting in the US, Juliette Gordon Low, funded her first troop by selling her pearl necklace, which was her only belonging after her husband died and left everything to his mistress.
She founded Girl Scouts to teach girls self-sufficiency so they wouldn’t have to go through what she went through when her husband died and she didn’t know how to take care of herself.
Moulin Rouge photograph from the collection of Richard Freiherr von Krafft-Ebing, a German-Austrian psychiatrist and early sexologist. He is famous for his book Psychopathia Sexualis: eine Klinisch-Forensische Studie, first published in 1886.
The book was intended for the use of physicians, psychiatrists and judges (and written partly in Latin in order to discourage the general public from reading it), the book explores fetishism, sadism, masochism and homosexuality, as well as nymphomania and the most taboo inclinations.
For Krafft-Ebing, any desire for sex unrelated to procreation was a deviation from the heterosexual norm, making, for example, gay sex a “perversion” of the sexual instinct.
