The Village Hemorrhoid

Thursday, October 23, 2025

(I don't want to snitch anyone out, but does anyone know where Cederq was on Sunday morning? I've heard him say "I'd kinda' like having a nice tiara to wear around the house when I'm feeling special.." ... Just sayin.')

The Louvre's head of security has been accused of being a diversity hire who put France's national treasures at risk, following the shocking heist of Napoleonic jewelry over the weekend.
Dominique Buffin, 46, was hired as the Louvre's first female security chief by Laurence Des Cars, the museum's first female director, last year.
But Buffin, who has worked with the police and at France's ministry of culture, was accused of being hired as part of a 'feminization policy'.

And both Buffin and Des Cars have faced calls to resign, following the 'theft of the decade' of eight pieces of the French Crown Jewels on October 19.
Eight objects were taken, according to officials. One object, the emerald-set imperial crown of Napoleon III's wife, Empress Eugénie, containing more than 1,300 diamonds, was later found outside the museum, French authorities said.
A worker in the Louvre filmed a person in the Apollo Gallery on Sunday morning wearing a yellow jacket and standing by a glass encasing.
Marion Maréchal, who leads the far-right Identity–Liberties party, wrote on social media: '[Culture minister] Rachida Dati must demand the immediate resignation of the museum's director Laurence Des Cars and the security chief Dominique Buffin, whom she appointed... as part of a feminization policy.
'Evidently at the cost of forgoing competence and endangering the cultural heritage of our nation.'

"NEVER FORGET"

"Your Mom Did"

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a screenshot of her combative text exchange with a reporter who snidely wondered if President Trump understood the historical ramifications of his upcoming meeting location with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
It was glorious. The terse three-word response had been reported by the left-wing journalist. The rest of the exchange with Leavitt, combined with today's comments on social media, just obliterated him on multiple levels.
Trump announced a meeting with Putin in Budapest, Hungary in the coming weeks as he continues to pursue a path to peace in Ukraine.
S.V. Date, a senior White House correspondent for the Huffington Post, apparently texted her wondering who had suggested the location, while providing a condescending history lesson of sorts to Leavitt.
He concluded with, "Who suggested Budapest?"
Leavitt's response? Comedy gold.
"Your mom did," she wrote back.
Date published the comment, along with a slightly condensed version of the same via White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, but left out how he had been a smarmy, weapons grade jackwagon in his initial message.
Fortunately, the press secretary kept receipts. And the follow-up text was equally as brutal.
Leavitt posted the exchange on X, and alleged that the Huffpo hack texts her incessantly with questions from a very biased point of view.

To be fair, everybody on the Huffington Post roster is masquerading as something else - a "real reporter," a competent journalist, reasonable, etc.
Leavitt, meanwhile, has an already extensive history of dispatching with the opposition party - whether in the field of journalism or in the government - with relative ease. And it drives them apoplectic.
Just last week, she raised the ire of the resistance by describing the Democrat party as having a constituency "made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens and violent criminals."

They Had Me At "Improved Fur Quality"

(LEGALIZE 'SHROOMS')

As revenues from the anti-aging market, riddled with hope and thousands of supplements, surged past $500 million last year, Emory University researchers identified a compound that actively delays aging in cells and organisms.
A newly published study in Nature Partner Journals’ Aging demonstrates that psilocin, a by-product of consuming psilocybin, the active ingredient in psychedelic mushrooms, extended the cellular lifespan of human skin and lung cells by more than 50%.

Louise Hecker, PhD, senior author of the studyIn parallel, researchers also conducted the first long-term in vivo study evaluating the systemic effects of psilocybin in aged mice of 19 months, or the equivalent of 60–65 human years. Results indicated that the mice that received an initial low dose of psilocybin of 5 mg, followed by a monthly high dose of 15 mg for 10 months, had a 30% increase in survival compared to mice who hadn’t received any. These mice also displayed healthier physical features, such as improved fur quality, fewer white hairs and hair regrowth.
While traditionally researched for its mental health benefits, this study suggests that psilocybin impacts multiple hallmarks of aging by reducing oxidative stress, improving DNA repair responses, and preserving telomere length. Telomeres are the structured ends of a chromosome, protecting it from damage that could lead to the formation of age-related diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, or cardiovascular disease. These foundational processes influence human aging and the onset of these chronic diseases.
The study concludes that psilocybin may have the potential to revolutionize anti-aging therapies and could be an impactful intervention in an aging population.
