A singer who poses for “artistic nudes” has revealed that fans often become annoyed when they realise that she doesn’t share porn on the platform. Marine Michaels is a singer-songwriter based in LA, and also models on content sharing site OnlyFans , where subscribers are able to find racy pictures of her posing nude.

Trying to work out where to get your next, or even first tattoo ? A word of warning if you're thinking of going a bit out there – steer clear of the genital area. If you're still not convinced then allow us to introduce the story of the anonymous man who accidentally gave himself a permanent erection. Of course, if you've put two and two together you've probably worked out this has something to do with tattooing his penis.

He chose to get the words "borow be salaamat" (good luck with your journeys) and the letter "M" (his girlfriend's initial) tattooed on his chap. That's all funny and sweet right? Well, the result was neither of those things (for him anyway) as the man was left with what is known as nonischemic priapism. In other words, it left him suffering from a half rigid penis due to blood being unable to exit the area. It is believed to be … [Read more...] about Poor bloke left with permanent erection after tattooing girlfriend’s initials on penis

When you go grocery shopping, have you wondered how long you can keep your fresh bakes for? In general, bread can be kept as long as there's no mould on it but if it's starting to get dry on the inside, a home expert has a tip for you to "revive" it. Influencer Katie Lolas, from Sydney, Australia, agreed that mouldy bread is "beyond salvaging". "Throw it in your compost bin and move on," she said in her Instagram post.

However, there was a year that I had the chance to live in New York City and while there, it opened my eyes to a whole different world.
