Facebook thought I might be interested in that. What does Facebook know about my skin and my aversion to sunscreen and my life in the shade?
The solid color full-body swimsuits are paradoxically brazen — especially the white one — and I had easily decided on leopard skin, even before I went out running this morning and — at 5:18 — admired the subtle camouflaging of the toad:
Look how hard it is to see the outline of the little beast against the pebbles and dirt. And that's what I'd like you to think about me if I ever go to the beach in a bathing suit again.

Well I, see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box... bikini... full-body swimsuit....

I love how the frog has the little black bumps that look like eyes. Must be confusing to a predator. But I agree on the Leopard skin as the best one, just one looks alone. It also probably is better at hiding any "Imperfections" that a solid one would highlight.
If you were chubby, the full body leopard suit might hide that better.
Rash guards. Staples of the diving (and other) communities for decades. Never underestimate the amount of natural toxicity the ocean can throw at you. And, they look and feel great.
The photo of Ann in the Sand - worthy of a magazine cover.
Well done!
Those full-body suits would be hellishly hard to pull on.
I could be called Mr. Basal Cell. The spf 50 body suits are great, but the ears (especially the ears) and face are unprotected.
Note: I buy sunscreen by the 55 gallon drum.
In other news, singer LeeAnn Rimes suffered a spontaneous ejection of her artificial chiclets while on stage…
Get the bathing suit with the optional shark-fin on the back.
Perfect for the beaches of new york! You don't want to violate any of the modesty laws soon to come!
Multiple Bob Dylan lyrics in the same day.....keep it comin'
Being colorblind, I have no problem seeing the outline of the frog because of the value and pattern difference. That's one of the evolutionary advantages that results in 10% of non African men retaining this set of Neanderthal genetic codes.
I imagine a flesh-colored suit covered with tattoos. On her back is the Battle of Waterloo, beneath it the Wreck of the Hesperus, too, while proudly above waves the Red, White, and Blue.
You'd expect more camel-toe, which I'd assume would be the selling point.
I wear a "diveskin" pretty much any time I'm in the ocean. Sun protection, of course, also good for floating nasties. My current one is black and red. Makes me look quite svelte, in my humble opinion.
I've taken to wearing sun shirts myself. The loose fit feels a bit weird at first, but they work great and are simpler than sun screen.
I also wear a long sleeve shirt, similar material, tight fitting, and knee length shorts (oops) for swim workouts.
But I caught my wife while i was wearing that classic of swimmers in the last century: Speedo.
“The solid color full-body swimsuits are paradoxically brazen — especially the white one — and I had easily decided on leopard skin, even before I went out running this morning and — at 5:18 — admired the subtle camouflaging of the toad:”
Judging from the catalog models it seems the “body positivity” movement is on the way out— not sure if that’s another benefit of Trump’s anti-DEI crusade or just reality rearing its lovely head.
Richard Dawkin’s latest book “The Genetic Book of the Dead” opens with a discussion of that toad and similar animals that carry a portrait of their ancestral environment on their backs.
"Note: I buy sunscreen by the 55 gallon drum."
I worry that sunscreen chemicals are absorbed into the blood and may themselves cause cancer.
Those catalog models have so little body fat that I'd recommend 2 mm neoprene instead. On the (ludicrous) assumption that they intend to go into the water, that is.
In my experience, women don't like to swim in full wetsuits because of the shoulder and arm restrictions combined with relatively low upper body strength.

OAC, in her fight with DJT - the other day SAID on X:
she 'Eats Queen's boys for Breakfast.'
AOC Posted on X:
Quote: “I’m a Bronx girl,” “You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully.”
AOC represents Queens. She just insulted every male in her district in Queens. Shouldn't this be a bigger deal?
The model in the leopard skin has a big head in proportion to her body. Almost Bauble head. Don't know if that's the suit or the pose/lighting or the model.
I see that the leftist media is racist. They have erased Eric Adams.
is he even running? As an independent?
How do you pee in those suits?
I look awful in a swimming suits but my grandkids don’t care. They like to play with BGE (best grandma ever) in the lake!
And like playing with them in the water-super soakers are still fun!
We have switched to mineral based (zinc) sunscreen. And wear floppy hats!
I would think that the white outfit, when wet, might become translucent.
How do you pee in those suits?
Like the astronauts...do it in the suit
Towels hardest hit.
I am almost exactly the same age as our professor. The fact that she could pull off those full body swimsuits says an awful lot, all of it good, especially for somebody our age.
I said: “Note: I buy sunscreen by the 55 gallon drum."
AA responded: “I worry that sunscreen chemicals are absorbed into the blood and may themselves cause cancer.”
I agree with your concern, but having been carved on 15+ times I don’t have many alternatives short of hibernating. I do cover completely when outdoors in addition to being chemically treated.
Cute girls.
I don't wear sunscreen at all but I'm not at the beach.
I worry that sunscreen chemicals are absorbed into the blood and may themselves cause cancer.
Probably at some level, but nowhere near as quickly as sun damage will.
If you want to see some cool natural camouflage, check out the pictures in Richard Dawkins' new The Genetic Book of the Dead.
“I’m a Bronx girl,” “You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully.”
I’d wager AOC could suck a tennis ball through a garden hose. Respectfully.
I have started using the cooling arm sleeves (sold on Amazon--use the Althouse portal) that I noticed some of the players and caddies wearing on the golf tour. Very light and comfortable, and, contrary to appearances, not at all warm or sweaty, and the do not bother my game at all. They allow you to wear a decent golf shirt and still be protected, and you just pull them off when you go for a beer after the round. With a wide brim hat you can minimize the sunscreen and still be protected from the sun.
I have tried the sun shirts, but once the temps get over 80 I find them to be sweaty and awkward.
"AOC States, Falsely, That She Eats Queens Boys For Breakfast."
NYC Police, NY State Police, the FBI and other law enforcement authorities have advised us that there are no confirmed records of Ms. Ocasio-Cortez consuming any humans whatsoever.
Our factcheck accordingly finds Ms. Ocasio-Cortez' statements to be categorically false. Four Pinocchios.

Get the dazzle camo print to confuse the U-boats.
is [Eric Adams] even running? As an independent?
Yes and yes.
Islam + Sun block = Modesty swimwear !(O_O)!

My lovely bride wears a tankini. At her age it’s just what the doctor ordered
I liked this one, possibly because the model looks more like a, really pretty, normal woman.

Dermatologists say that sun damage is cumulative over your life. Contrary to their intentions, that means that if you're old it isn't worth bothering with sun protection.
You lost me after, "Speaking of breasts............."
All we need to know is whether Meade is a Speedo guy. Poor guy can’t wear shorts.
Quote: “I’m a Bronx girl,” “You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully.”
Is that a euphemism?
Two problems with sunscreen: Missed spots. And it wears off, particularly if you're in the water a lot.
Camo toad.
Is that a euphemism?
Just a lie. She is a Westchester girl.
Hubba-hubba!
Hubba-hubba!
“How do you pee in those suits?”
You just do.
“I worry that sunscreen chemicals are absorbed into the blood and may themselves cause cancer.”
Or they may themselves prevent cancer. Life is too short to be a worrywart.
“I would think that the white outfit, when wet, might become translucent.”
I had the same thought. Or maybe it was just a dream.
I think about getting a suit like that every year. I'm not worried about the sunscreen, but I don't like having to reapply it. A little suit, however, is much easier to deal with when the swimming is over.
The correct expression would have been, "We eat Queens boy like you for breakfast." The way she put it declaws its meaning and that is not surprising for the Tip Stealer Supreme™
