BBL, or Brazilian Butt Lift, is high risk.

Main dangers
Fat embolism: The most serious risk; fat can travel to the lungs or heart and cause sudden collapse or death

Infection and bleeding: These are general surgical risks that can lead to pain, hospitalization, or further treatment

Poor cosmetic outcome: Some transferred fat may die or be absorbed, leaving asymmetry or lumps.

Why it is especially risky

The buttock area has important blood vessels, and the procedure can be done in a “blind” way, meaning the surgeon may not fully see where the cannula is moving; that increases the chance of vessel injury .

Reports from plastic surgery groups and medical coverage have repeatedly described BBL as one of the most dangerous cosmetic procedures.

Lets hear from Mercy in another 10 years. May God have mercy upon Her.

TopBanter:
I believe they accomplished the main mission of taking out ISIS second in command to diminish the ability of the terror organisation to plot and execute terror from Sub-saharan Africa.

They'll be back when there is another strategic target. There is a Nigerian-USA task force, led by Ribadu on the Nigerian end, in place to tackle terrorism and Banditry. Intel will dictate deployment.
The same way they took out the first un command in Iran, and He was replaced by a more extremist lesder.

As a Guy, what are some of the worst insults, that a lady can give to you?
What kind of low self esteem or superiority complex inspired this question?

What does it matter is someone, man or woman insults you? Its either the insult is a lie or it is true. If it is a lie, then it doesnt matter. And if it's true, then its not an insult.

Science/Technology › Re: Generator Vs Solar: Which Saves More Money? by TheGift: 9:12pm On Jun 27
The best decision i made was to invest in solar for home and office 3+ years ago. I have lived the last 2 years without owning a generator. I have akways hated them, starting with the sound.

Of course your solar should be able to power fridge and freezer steady, and some key ACs, preferably inverter ACs as well, for it to make sense. Mine can also pump water.

IF i ever need a generator , which is rare, we just rent it for the period. Its still way cheaper for me.

Not to talk of all the time, stress , transport and tools required to run and maintain your gen, fuelling, servicing, engine oil, and repairs, pouring fuel, smelling of fuel, settling the person that helped you buy fuel... it never stops.

Solar eliminates all that. Sometimes i dont know when i have run out Electricity till much later.

Wait let me go to twitter n bring d details
We are waiting for the alleged details.

Can you verify when the picture with Macaroni was taken?

So His parents are just wasting their old age acting in court, almost six years after? Were His parents not suing before this government came into power? So are matters now tried and resolved in the court of Twitter?

Travel › Re: US To Revoke Passports Of Citizens Owing Over $2,500 In Child Support by TheGift: 5:07pm On Jun 26
Kobojunkie:
You are literally the one who is confused about what is written there. undecided

If a citizen is attempting to get himself a passport, what is he trying to use it for? Take local flights? Visit local tourist spots? undecided
Stop being slow.

Where in the post did they tell you Citizens were attempting to get a passports? How can the government threaten to revoke passports citizens are attempting to get, if they have not already gotten it?

So because Nigerians like you only remember that they need passport when they want to travel, you think the sole purpose of passport is for the purpose of travelling? The primary purpose of a national passport is to prove your identity and nationality, wether or not you travel with it, is secondary.

Trump saying he will revoke their passport is same as saying he will revoke their citizenship. He doesnt even have the right to revoke the citizenship of serial killers, it is deadbeat dad's he now wants to face?

Meanwhile, do you even know the difference between the meanings of Citizens and Tourists?

It is racist to insist that you shouldn't have money to splurge on a passport and trips abroad if you are unwilling to spend on your children? Who should pay for the children? Taxpayers, while you go galavanting across the globe? 🤔

If you are a deadbeat as a black man, your shame is supposed to reach hell. 🤔
Read the main post again, they are talking about passport of citizens, with children who are most likely citizens. Not about foreigners splurging on passports and trips abroad.

Now you can apologize for your error, then go and sin no more. smiley

Women will find a way to cry about everything. A woman's body is designed to do all that safely.
If you are finding it difficult then you are a weak woman or you have a health problem.

Women in the past have been doing it without all the assistance available today.
So, do it and shut up.
If you are not a Woman, then you should be the first to practice what you preach by shutting up.

Congratulations to her, and well done to the family if they really modified the list 🤗 - but she no trust the guy to buy her stuff after the marriage? You know how much the wife items section go cost? 🤣

One whole maluu and iya goat don near or pass 1.5m

I think the South South still has the cheapest bride list - God bless my babe family 😁

Modified:
Alot of you have mentioned me, telling me how Akwaibom is expensive. Shey dem tell una say Akwa Ibom is the only state in the South-South?

Meanwhile, just so you know, bride price can actually be adjusted to your financial capacity if you're not marrying into a Hungry and sha__me-less family.
You said South South, so stop complaining about people calling you out, with Akwa Ibom. Just accept that you generalized and then be more specific. Thats all.

Some people will still come here to defend what Israel is doing because of the unchristian theology that they have been taught in the name of Christ.

Even when the Bible has already told us that God does not show favoritism to jews over gentiles in Acts 10, they will still favor jews and justify their genocidal behaviour for the same reason. How evil.
Foreign Affairs › Re: Trump’s Iran Agreement Embraces Sanctions Relief He Once Denounced by TheGift: 9:16pm On Jun 23
CanadaOrBust:
Trump is a F**l but he did become a billionaire while his father was a millionaire. And the book was his narration as to how he put together deals
Your argument is fair enough, however as.per the book, it was not a narration. Tony Schwartz, the ghost writer who mostly conceptualized and shaped the core theme of the book interviewed Trump, then did all of actual writing. That is why He got half of everything that came from the book.

Below are some quotes from Schwartz , years after he wrote the book:

1. “The ‘Art of the Deal’ was a phrase that came out of my mouth 30 years ago as a way for Trump to write an autobiography he didn’t have. It was a fake marketing idea, not a reality.”

“I regret it every day of my life.”

“I put lipstick on a pig.”

“I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made Him more appealing than He is"

Go and verify

People will soon realize what is meant by THE ART AND F THE DEAL. Underestimate Trump at your own peril.
Hope you know that book was written by A Ghost Writer for Trump.

Trump has never been good at making deals. He inherited His wealth and has had Six Bankruptcies and several failed companies.

He is already a failure in Iran. And an embarassment to the United States.

HOW did US lose?? Do you know how much they'd be willing to pay for the lessons they learnt from ths war - worth much more than anything they lost in the war except human life.
Already they now have a corridor through Oman that bypasses Iran's part of Hormuz. Add to that, Gulf States' extreme wealth will now be spent to make them Iran-proof!

As for petroleum reserve, CNN stupid propaganda. US has excess oil. The reserve is just to stabilize world oil prices. Out of over 400 million in the reserve they have sold not even up to 9 million!
You're quoting Trump for me as evidence. You must be a joker.

Please dont bother responding again because i PROMISE not to read it, and i MAY block you for good.

You're very funny. Did the US tell you that they were going to war to learn lessons? And are they the only ones that can learn? Do you not realize that Iran has been able to sustain this war because of the lessons learnt from previous attacks.?

One thing which is becoming clearer to me is that you think wars are won or lost purely from a militaristic dimension but that is so narrow minded

I know you like speculations but these are the undisputable facts;

1. The US failed to destroy Iran's nuclear program (set back only ~months, not eliminated)

2. Iran's government survived; hardliners were empowered rather than weakened

3. US is in a weaker position than before the war with no long-term strategic gains

4. Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz blocked a vital shipping lane

5. The war handed a windfall to Russia (which has sold weapons to Iran, and has benefitted from america's distraction from Ukraine) and weakened US strategic edge against China.

6. US depleted Tomahawk missiles and other munitions needed for more dangerous adversaries

7. Six out of seven American military bases in the region were bombed without any meaningful resistance

8. America's moral reputation and reputation for effective governance has suffered globally

9. American has lost support of its main allies particularly in the Europe.

10. Gas prices in the US Rose from ~$3/gallon to ~$4/gallon (38% increase); later breached $4.50/gallon. Americans paid $8.4 Billion more for gas in just the first month of the war

11. Nearly 1/3 of Americans reduced spending/savings due to higher fuel costs

12. The cost of the war is estimated to have exceeded $1 billion daily , a ridiculously high amount spent on strategic objectives that have not been met, even though you ridiculously think it is worth it for the lessons learnt about Hormuz.

13. America is not even able to properly handle the peace talks that it has been pushing for.

14. America and Isreal who started the war together, are now at loggerheads.

I could go on, but these are just a few of the UNDISPUTABLE facts.

Majority of Americans are not in support of the war, yet you from a country described by Trump as a "shithole" are still here supporting it,- even though the war almost doubled fuel prices in your country.and you are paying more for food because of it.

Robert Kagan , a senior fellow in the Brookings Institute (one of the most influential think tanks in America stated: "this is essentially a complete victory for Iran and a significant loss for the United States".

These are people.who are more.informed than most on these topics, but you want me take your own assurance based on specualtions about the midterms? Like I said, you're very funny.

You are the one picked sides. How can a breathing human being look at the PAST (people and infrastructure lost) and likely FUTURE (war almost certain to restart), NOT just the present (the MoU), and say Iran won. Won what?? Won attacking ships on Hormuz?

Yes Hormuz will definitely be solved one way or another - even if it means US taking over from insurance companies and directly insuring ships and at same time providing cover for any ship crossing. One thing is certain, it WILL be solved!
P.S. latest news:
The amount of oil in the U.S Strategic Petroleum Reserve plunged last week to the lowest level since 1983 as the Trump administration continues to deploy emergency oil to minimize the damage from the war with Iran.
