Why is it borderline ?

Well, I remember people posting with tears in their eyes, and promising Karen that they'll do the impossible to find August's father. And this whole thing was a setup for an advertisement to promote tourism in Denmark!

" The Fine Art of Baloney Detection " is an essay written by Carl Sagan (a renowned astronomer, astrophysicist, and science communicator).  In this essay, Sagan outlines principles and techniques for critical thinking and skepticism, emphasizing the importance of approaching claims and assertions with a skeptical mindset. Here's a brief overview of the key points discussed in "The Fine Art of Baloney Detection": 1.

Sure, she still has the same silhouette that makes her very recognizably.  Her chunky elbow length gloves, the short jacket keeps her midriff with the hourglass angles she's always had, and the straps on her jacket fill in for her pigtails. But then why? from  instagram.com/p/CfHga7VlYbP/ personally, I will always wonder how Lux Kassidy would have looked in that original costume...
