In a recent video, Lila decided to address the fact that people are distracted by her boobs and doubt her intelligence[/caption]
On her profile, Lila calls herself “The Milf Next Door,” and proudly shows off her scandalous outfits and speaks about self-love.
Unfortunately, even at 44 years old, the social media star has found it a bit difficult to stand up against the assumptions made about her intelligence.
While many of her followers gush over her outrageous curves and large breasts, few seem to believe she has much brainpower.
In a recent video, Lila decided to address the fact that people are distracted by her boobs.
The brief recording reveals Lila sitting in a low-cut tank top that shows off plenty of her cleavage.
A single line of text written over the clip quickly flashes on the screen reading “Strangers on the internet be like.”
The glowing bobbed blonde then nods along as the audio states, “Oh wow, like you’re actually, I mean your tits are huge but you’re super smart.”
At the end of the clip, she mouthes “Right” as the comedic audio comes to a stop.
Despite her attempt to bring attention to the misconceptions, most of her followers seemed to care more about her looks.
Many fans headed to the comments section to compliment Lila’s fabulous figure and very few had anything to say about her intellect.
“I finally found the girl of my dreams!” one of her many admirers claimed.
Other curious followers inquired about Lila’s relationship status.
“If you have someone, then I am officially jealous,” one fan wrote.
Some people wondered whether Lila has underwent any treatments or procedures to achieve her looks.
“Is this your natural body ma’am?” a third person asked.
Once again, it seems that Lila’s followers have proven that they are more interested in her body than her brain.

I built a tiny home for my two children when I got divorced and now I help others do the same – I’ve saved thousands
WHEN Jill Kanto got divorced, she needed to make some drastic changes – and fast.
It was time to move out of the Maryland apartment she shared with her two young children and ex-husband and start afresh.
Jill Kanto’s 238 sq. ft. home – it’s 370 sq. ft. if you include the loft space – is on a farm in Maryland and took around 13 months to complete[/caption]
Jill lives in her tiny home with her two daughters and grows some of her own food on the land[/caption]
Problem was, with limited finances, there weren’t many options to choose from.
“My children weren’t getting the best of me, I was struggling and my health was getting worse,” she told The U.S. Sun.
“This went on for three years. It was unsustainable.”
Hope, however, came in the shape of a $25,000 loan from her mother which went towards the purchase of a 238 sq. ft. tiny house.
Back in 2015, living tiny wasn’t as popular as it is today but Jill’s interest was piqued by watching the TV show Tiny House Nation.
There certainly wasn’t anything like the Great American Tiny House Show in Virginia where she spoke to The U.S. Sun about her brave journey which can help inspire countless others to reignite their lives by reshaping their living arrangements.
Jill only had three days to get her act together – “when people downsize, they really should do their due diligence,” she warns – and began trawling www.tinyhousebuild.com.
While many people looking to live tiny might already by ready-built shells or even fully furnished homes which are ready to go, Jill started from scratch.
She knew the house would take a while to finish, but was confident she could make it livable in no time at all.
That said, naturally it was a massive, life changing decision.
“It took me about two weeks to hit the click the submit button because I was so afraid of taking this on and not being able to finish it or just coming out with a terrible end product,” she admitted.
Once the order was in the works, a materials list was downloaded, everything was priced out and a carpenter friend was interviewed.
“I asked her how much she’d charge to help me for a couple of weeks so I could learn, be her helper and figure out how to take over the reins,” Jill recalled.
The risk was worth the reward, even if the process took a while.
After 13 months in total, the mother of two used her own building skills – “You Tube is a massive help but building a house is pretty monumental, I thought I would be done in two months” – as well as utilizing the help of plumbers and electricians to complete the job on a friend’s farm.
Step one was complete. Now to find some land, an aspect of tiny living which can be very daunting, especially when trying to navigate the different housing rules and regulations which vary from state to state.
Jill wanted a place where her children would thrive. She drove around looking at potential plots which could suit a tiny house. It was tough.
“I would see a place, find the address, search the phone number and leave creepy voicemails,” she said with a smile.
Jill was operating on a tight budget so was hoping to find a place for around $500 a month.
It wasn’t, however, until she started using the website nextdoor.com, which geographically connects to people around you, that she was finally able to find a place to call home.
Farm owners were looking for tiny homes to join them on their land – and the result was a wonderful combination of newfound friendship and family.
Her children instantly had new pals – “my youngest and their youngest are like sisters now,” – and with Jill a keen gardener who grows her own food, an instant connection was made.
Six years on, her family are still there and loving every moment. Jill says her utility bills have been reduced by almost 70% and her quality of life has also increased as a result.
She was also able to start treating her children on their birthday rather than worrying about piling up debt on a credit card.
“It’s an incredible experience to be able to do that,” she said.
As other tiny homes moved onto the land, Jill has helped create an intentional community for her family, something she was drawn into when visiting Twin Oaks in Luisa, Virginia in 2014.
An intentional community is loosely defined as a voluntary residential community which is designed to have a high degree of social cohesion and teamwork from the start. Those who live there can share common beliefs, whether it be social, political or religious, to name but a few.
Basically, it can be any unifying theme which binds like-minded people together.
“It blew my mind when I first visited Twin Oaks,” said Jill whose eyes had been opened to a different way of living.
Her website – www.searchtinyhousevillages.com – aims to help those looking for help with parking their tiny homes and encourage them to create their own communities.
“The possibilities of intentionally sharing living areas with people that are not part of your immediate family are endless,” she said.
“It’s just a lovely experience.”
Jill needed to save money and by moving into a tiny home, her quality of life improved tremendously[/caption]

My friends and I are sizes XS-XL and tried the same bikini – people say we’re ’10s across the board’
REGARDLESS of your body type, finding a bikini that makes you feel confident and sexy is no easy feat.
One woman said she sought to solve that problem by creating a swimsuit line that flatters all shapes and sizes.
Three women, all with different body types, tried on the same bikini and were thrilled with the results[/caption]
Chioma Ngwudo (@chiomanngwudo) is a lifestyle blogger who founded her own fashion and accessories brand, Cee Cee’s Closet.
One of her focuses is swimsuits – and with friends whose body shapes vary across the spectrum, she wanted to create a style that anyone could wear.
In a video, she demonstrated how the bikinis fit on different women.
The first woman, wearing a size medium, danced around to flaunt her curves in the $55 triangle top and $45 string bottom.
She later added sunglasses and the $120 matching cover up to complete the ensemble.
Wearing the same style but in a pink print rather than an orange one, another model appeared toned and confident in the size XS.
To show range, a third woman stepped out in a skimpy size XL, pairing the look with matching bright sunglasses and chunky heels.
All three women clearly felt good in the bikinis, styling them in ways that accentuated their features.
“Two prints and a world of fun,” the caption read.
Commenters were left enamored with all of the women.
“Gorgeous! 10’s across the board,” one person wrote alongside a fire emoji.
“They all fine,” another admired.
“Yessss why y’all so gorgeous?” chimed a third.
And a fourth was just happy to have finally found bikinis that would flatter their busty frame: “Omg def buying from you. I’ve been looking for good examples with women with bigger chests.”

Nuclear Fusion Won’t Be Regulated in the US the Same Way as Nuclear Fission
The top regulatory agency for nuclear materials safety in the U.S. voted unanimously to regulate the burgeoning fusion industry differently than the nuclear fission industry, and fusion startups are celebrating that as a major win. As a result, some provisions specific to fission reactors, like requiring funding to cover claims from nuclear meltdowns, won’t apply to fusion plants. (Fusion reactors cannot melt down….)
Other differences include looser requirements around foreign ownership of nuclear fusion plants, and the dispensing of mandatory hearings at the federal level during the licensing process, said Andrew Holland, CEO of the industry group, the Fusion Industry Association… The approach to regulating fusion is akin to the regulatory regime that is currently used to regulate particle accelerators, which are machines that are capable of making elementary nuclear particles, like electrons or protons, move really fast, the Fusion Industry Association says…
Technically speaking, fusion will be regulated under Part 30 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Jeff Merrifield, a former NRC commissioner, told CNBC. The regulatory structure for nuclear fission is under Part 50 of that code. “The regulatory structure needed to regulate particle accelerators under Part 30, is far simpler, less costly and more efficient than the more complicated rules imposed on fission reactors under Part 50,” Merrifield told CNBC. “By making this decision to use the Part 30, the commission recognized the decreased risk of fusion technologies when compared with traditional nuclear reactors and has imposed a framework that more appropriately aligns the risks and the regulations,” he said.
“Private fusion companies have raised about $5 billion to commercialize and scale fusion technology,” the article points out, “and so the decision from the NRC on how the industry would be regulated is a big deal for companies building in the space.” And they shared three reactions from the commercial fusion industry:
The CEO of the industry group, the Fusion Industry Association told CNBC the decision was
“extremely important.”
The scientific director for fusion startup Focused Energy told CNBC the decision “removes a major area of uncertainty for the industry.”
The general counsel for nuclear fusion startup Helion told CNBC. “It is now incumbent on us to demonstrate our safety case as we bring fusion to the grid, and we look forward to working with the public and regulatory community closely on our first deployments.”
