Lust for child sex star Brooke Shields?

Brooke Shields (1977)
Pretty Baby (XXX)
Brooke Christa Shields (born May 31, 1965) is an American model, child actress, Hollywood star, and current president of the Actors' Equity Association [2].

A child model starting at the age of 11 months [3], Shields gained widespread notoriety for her leading role in Louis Malle's film about a child hooker (sex trafficked indentured servant prostitute) Pretty Baby (1978) [which would be X-rated on most planets but not this one], in which she appeared in nude scenes shot when she was just 11 years old. Welcome to Hollywood, kid!
 
What can I say? I like them young
This piqued Woody Allen's interest so much that he hired her to play his child love interest in the hit romcom Annie Hall (1977), though her sexy and provocative scenes were later edited out of the movie after The Woodman took Shields' Momager Teri Shields on a date that didn't go so well.

Shields continued to model into her late teenage years and starred in several dramas in the 1980s, including The Blue Lagoon (1980), and Franco Zeffirelli's Endless Love (1981).

In 1983, Shields suspended her modeling career to attend Princeton U, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree. More

What if Brooke did standup comedy?

Universe twice as old as thought? (video)

British astrophysicist Dr. Becky Smethurst, University of Oxford, Christ Church (Dr. Becky on YouTube, July 27, 2023; Sheldon S., CC Liu (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Has JWST shown that the universe is TWICE as old as we thought?!
With all the CGI, color enhancements, photographic manipulations, projections, and theoretical mathematical calculations, this slice of heaven/space could be any age (James Webb Telescope)


It's really big: JWST prepped on earth
(Dr. Becky) The great Dr. B. has attitude, doubting that new evidence and explanations for the current data suggest the universe is older than we thought.
A new research study has come out claiming that to explain the massive galaxies found at huge distances in James Webb Space Telescope images, the universe is older than we think, at 26.7 billion years (rather than 13.8 billion years old).

This video dives into that study, looking at what model they used to get at that claim (a combination of the expansion of the universe and "tired light" ideas of redshift), how this impacts our best model of the universe and the so-called "Crisis is Cosmology," and why Dr. B. is not yet convinced.

πŸ‘©πŸ½‍πŸ’» ABOUT: I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know [epistemology], especially the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online, ask me. My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars. http://drbecky.uk.com https://rebeccasmethurst.co.uk

Bart Simpson (Phil & Ted's Sexy Boomer Show)

Nancy Cartwright, Phil Proctor, Ted Bonnitt; Ashley Wells, Seth Auberon (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
The Xmas Lisa became a vegan Buddhist was the best X-mas of all. She still got Xmas gifts.
.
Nancy Cartwright (a.k.a. “Bart Simpson”) is the voice of Bart, Maggie, and many other characters on The Simpsons. As such she is at the center of a cultural phenomenon -- the longest-running TV series in American history.

The show has made Americans laugh for over 34 years. In this fun and engaging interview, Cartwright offers a fascinating inside look at how The Simpsons is made, how it navigates controversies, and how it remains a hit in a “woke” society.

Richard Gere and Lisa meditate in Springfield.
She shares a Cinderella story of how her career began in Ohio, thanks in large part to a record promoter and Yogi Bear. Hear it all on PHIL AND TED'S SEXY BOOMER SHOW, June 21, 2022.

ABOUT: Phil Proctor is a humorist, author, actor, and best known as a founding member of the groundbreaking comedy group “Firesign Theatre,” which got its start on KPFK.org. Ted Bonnitt is a writer, host, and producer of national entertainment podcasts, radio, TV and film programming, including with members of Firesign Theatre. He hosted the “The Bernie Fleshkin Show” on WBAI (Pacifica NY) for ten years.

Space: "Star Factory"


Combination of observations from the UK Infrared Telescope and the Spitzer Space Telescope is seen in an undated image. Part of a survey in which British astronomers spotted a star factory in the constellation Orion, it shows parts of the Orion Molecular Cloud being illuminated by nearby stars and glowing a green color. The jets punch through the cloud and can be seen as a multitude of tiny pink-purple arcs, knots, and filaments. The young stars that drive the jets are usually found along each jet and are colored golden orange (Reuters/UKIRT/JAC/Spitzer Telescope/Handout).

(SPACE.COM) To commemorate almost two decades of photographing the wonders of the universe, the Hubble Space Telescope captured an image of a peculiar group of interacting galaxies that contains a "cosmic fountain" of stars, gas, and dust that stretches about 100,000 light years. Over the past 19 years, Hubble has taken many images of galactic collisions and close encounters.

The new image of a trio of galaxies, called Arp 194, looks as if one of the galaxies has sprung a leak. The bright blue streamer seen in the image is really a stretched spiral arm full of newborn blue stars. This stellar activity typically happens when two galaxies interact and gravitationally tug at each other. More>>
