At first I thought to myself: "is Martha walking kind of slow? Is she okay?" And then I googled her and *SHE IS F***KING 80 YEARS OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* WHAT??!?!??!?! 🤯 She is wearing LATEX PANTS AND HEELS ffs!!!! What an icon! 🤩

[@teresaferrer4748]

I thought the same thing. Which is embarrassing because I'm 65 overweight and with severe sciatica. She looks fab for 80!! Holy cow!!

I’d like to think it was that, but my first impression was that she had been drinking. It was her balance, but also her demeanor.

And which "heaven" is that again? What evidence do you have for there being anything after we die? Why isn't it the exact same as before we were born, we simply don't exist anymore? It's so sad to me that a grown person would still believe in the same absurd fairy tales they did as a child, do you still believe in Santa Claus? The Tooth Fairy? Which of the 2000+ "god(s)" is in your heaven? Is that "god(s)" all powerful? If so I guess it enjoys WATCHING CHILDREN STARVE TO DEATH huh? I mean it's all powerful and just sits back and watches CHILDREN STARVE TO DEATH - holy shit that's a fucked up "god", huh? And if some people go to this fairy tale "heaven" place then do some go to a mythical "hell"? How horrible you are - you could enjoy yourself in a heaven knowing that others are BURNING IN HELL FOR ALL ENTERNITY? I guess you and your "god(s)" are fucking monsters as I could NEVER be happy knowing that - knowing that someone I knew and/or loved is being punished INFINITELY for a finite crime? It's a damn good thing your "god" is a fucking fairy tale as what a horrible, hateful, evil entity it would have to be.
