Lisa Anderson, a mother from Devon, England, spent £8,000 consuming an entire 200g tub of Johnson's Baby Powder daily for 15 years. Sneaking away to eat it off the back of her hand every 30 minutes. Lisa Anderson, a 44-year-old mother of five from Devon, said the craving began after the birth of her youngest son when she used powder on him after a bath and felt an overwhelming urge to eat it. What started as a single moment became a daily compulsion she couldn't stop. She runs to the bathroom at least 40 times a day to eat powder off the back of her hand, and wakes up four times a night to feed the habit. She cannot go more than 30 minutes without it. In public she eats mints as a substitute. She eats only one meal a day, skipping breakfast and lunch to consume powder throughout the day instead. The longest she has ever gone without it was two days, which she described as the worst time of her life. Doctors believe she may have PICA syndrome, an eating disorder characterised by compulsive consumption of non-food items, potentially linked to iron deficiency or OCD.

Japan’s Prime Minister arrived in London with no official reception and no red carpet — greeted only by the aircraft crew.

Still a bit shaken, honestly. Walked into Aldi today and there it was. The 25% fat mince, the one with all the flavour and the most fuel in it, sat there as the cheapest mince in the whole shop. Cheaper than the 5% lean. I read the label three times. I genuinely couldn't believe what I was seeing. I didn't ask questions. I filled the trolley. Then I went back and filled it again, glancing at the staff the entire time in case someone clocked it and started pulling it off the shelf. Got the lot to the car before a single word was said. No idea how long this one's got left. Get down there while it lasts.

Poles to the rescue... 🇵🇱

The Awakening You truly believed I would quietly allow you to drain what I’ve built, day after day, without consequence? Did you honestly expect me to tolerate this endless pursuit forever like that out of shape clown Pete. You misjudged entirely. You chose the wrong man to provoke, gentlemen. A costly error. Behold this strong, commanding, and unstoppable presence in the image before you, a man of resilience, vision, and unbreakable determination. You self serving, opportunistic schemers. You are nothing more than deceitful parasites and avaricious frauds, hiding behind your greed while preying on the determined. #digitalart #Handsome #Loyal #YouUgly

Woman flies to Miami and the guy she went to see blocked her mid flight while she was texting and never picked her up from the airport. Why do women fly out with no money or back up plan?
