FEMEN VS. DOMINIQUE STRAUSS-KHAN

Dominique Strauss-Khan, former IMF president and former Finance Minister in France, is facing charges of procuring and whoring for, supposedly, organizing orgies.
And Femen was there, of course. If women rights have to be defended, the activists are always there.

AI IS FINDING YOU A GIRLFRIEND

Matchmakers were women who specialized in arranging marriages, acting as intermediaries between families to find suitable partners. Their role was crucial in many cultures throughout history, especially in societies where arranged marriages prioritized social, economic, and familial compatibility over romantic love.

Across different eras and regions, these women had specific names:

• In medieval and Renaissance Europe, they were known as matchmakers or celestinas, like the character in La Celestina by Fernando de Rojas.
• In China, the "Mei Po" (媒婆) played a key role in arranged marriage traditions.
• In Russia and Eastern Europe, "svakha" were women specialized in finding partners for young people.
• In the Jewish tradition, "shadchanim" were professional matchmakers responsible for arranging marriages within the community.

Their work wasn’t just about pairing couples; they also negotiated dowries, ensured compatibility, and made sure the marriage was beneficial for both families. While their role has faded in many societies, matchmakers still exist today, especially in religious communities or cultures where arranged marriages remain a common practice.

Now, let’s ask AI to find you a girlfriend—let’s see what it comes up with and if you like any of the options.

REAL OR AI? VINTAGE EROTICISM THAT TRICKS THE SENSES

These vintage-style photos look like they've been rediscovered from some forgotten drawer dating back to the 1930s or 40s. Everything is meticulously detailed: the lighting, the textures, even that subtly sensual vibe typical of erotic imagery from that era. They're so convincing, in fact, that it's quite challenging to realize they've actually been generated by artificial intelligence. Sure, there are small clues that give them away, but anyone who's not used to spotting such details might never even notice.

That's precisely the catch: AI is evolving so rapidly and subtly that we hardly notice how something previously unmistakably artificial can now easily pass for human. It’s like a slow, gradual change you only become aware of when it's already undeniable.

So sit back and enjoy these images blending nostalgia, sensuality, and artificial intelligence. Who would've thought the past and future could merge this seamlessly?

CARIBBEAN PIRATES

The real Caribbean pirates were a whole different breed than the Hollywood kind—though just as savage. They ruled the seas between the 17th and 18th centuries, especially around the Gulf of Mexico, the Antilles, and the northern coast of South America. These guys were rogue sailors, ex-soldiers, or just hustlers who saw piracy as a fast (and seriously dangerous) way to get rich.

They attacked ships loaded with gold, silver, rum, sugar, and anything valuable coming from the American colonies to Europe. Some worked solo, but many were privateers—basically pirates with government permission to rob enemy ships.

Bartholomew "Blackbeard" (Edward Teach) was one of the most feared. He tied smoking fuses into his beard to look even scarier. With smoke pouring from his face, he looked more like a demon from hell than a Disney pirate.
Anne Bonny and Mary Read disguised themselves as men to join pirate crews. They fought like anyone else and didn’t mess around. And Calico Jack became known for his iconic flag (the classic skull with crossed swords) and for sailing alongside Anne and Mary. Spoiler: he ended up hanging by the neck.

The pirate life was brutal. Scurvy, betrayals, brawls, rotten food, and no showers in sight. But there was also a kind of pirate democracy—they voted for their captain, split the loot fairly, and had their own rules, including punishing crew members who stole from each other.
Once they started hitting ships without caring about flags, the major European powers got fed up and hunted them down almost to extinction by the early 18th century.
