The sexualization of little girls’ playthings is nothing new. Much ado was made of Dora the Explorer’s makeover from regular looking kid to a lithe, feminized version. Even My Little Ponies have been made over to have smaller bodies, longer, skinnier legs, and come-hither poses.

For those of you who might not know, David Dees used to be an illustrator for bad B-book covers and the Disney corporation. He now dedicates most of his time to creating conspiratorial and political poster art. While I’ve never been much of a fan of his work (some of it is rather pretentious and down-right goofy), the above image has a certain resonance that I thought worth sharing. You can check out more of his sometimes creepy, Illuminati exposing artwork at his website: –DEESILLUSTRATION.com– .
NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day today is a cosmic cloud called Thor’s Helmet, for obvious reasons.
Heroically sized even for a Norse god, Thor’s Helmet is about 30 light-years across. In fact, the helmet is actually more like an interstellar bubble, blown as a fast wind from the bright, massive star near the bubble’s center sweeps through a surrounding molecular cloud. Known as a Wolf-Rayet star, the central star is an extremely hot giant thought to be in a brief, pre-supernova stage of evolution. Cataloged as NGC 2359, the nebula is located about 15,000 light-years away in the constellation Canis Major.

I’d never heard of Daisy Lowe before, but it’s always nice running into sexy photo galleries of 21 year old London fashion models on a Sunday afternoon…
