Ivanhoe Posted August 5 Author Posted August 5 Still gotta pay a full day's woth of taxes; https://www.space.com/astronomy/earth/mysterious-boost-to-earths-spin-will-make-aug-5-one-of-the-shortest-days-on-record Quote The days are getting shorter and not just because summer is waning in the Northern Hemisphere. On Tuesday, Aug. 5, Earth's solar day will be ever so slightly shorter than usual 24 hours, according to Timeanddate.com, making it not only one of the shortest days of 2025, but also since records began. At just 1.25 milliseconds under the 86,400-second mark, it won't be noticeable, but it's part of a puzzling trend that's baffling scientists: Earth is spinning faster. After decades of slowing down, our planet's rotation has been speeding up in recent years — and timekeepers have no definitive explanation.

Ivanhoe Posted August 24 Author Posted August 24 He seems to haunt big box stores in Burbank; https://nypost.com/2025/08/24/us-news/california-butt-sniffer-calese-crowder-arrested-yet-again/ Quote An infamous butt-sniffing pervert has been arrested again after allegedly being caught in the act yet again — despite being busted and held on $100,000 bail just a month ago. Calese Crowder, 38, was charged with a felony and is now being held without bail after his alleged creepy behavior at a Walgreens in Burbank on Wednesday led to employees calling the cops on him, ABC7 reports. Charges indicate he was on parole at the time of his latest arrest — and he has a documented history of arrests for lewd conduct dating back to 2021. Kudos to Burbank PD for getting to the bottom of this.
Ivanhoe Posted September 15 Author Posted September 15 https://pjmedia.com/vodkapundit/2025/09/15/terrorist-attack-on-fox-news-van-fizzles-out-n4943716 Quote A bomb on a local FOX 13 news van in Salt Lake City fizzled out instead of blowing up on Friday, and police have two suspects in custody. Suspected Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson is being held nearby. It was those sneaky Lutherans again. Just kidding. The suspects' names are Adeeb Nasir, age 58, and Adil Justice Ahmed Nasir, age 31. The story slipped under the radar over the weekend, but investigators found that the bomb "had been lit but failed to function as designed," according to court documents revealed by CBS affiliate KUTV early Monday. On Sunday, the FBI served a search warrant in Salt Lake's Magna neighborhood west of downtown, but only after evacuating neighboring homes. It's a good thing, too, since the search found explosives, explosive-related components, firearms, illegal narcotics, and drug paraphernalia. The two Nasirs were arrested at the scene and could face charges related to weapons possession and threats of terrorism, according to local ABC News affiliate KTVX. One of the two is a furry.

Ivanhoe Posted September 18 Author Posted September 18 https://nypost.com/2025/09/17/business/texas-company-makes-major-breakthrough-in-de-extinction-of-dodo-bird/ Quote Scientists at a Texas-based company made a major breakthrough towards reviving the dodo bird nearly 300 years after extinction. Colossal Biosciences announced on Wednesday that researchers had, for the first time, successfully grown pigeon primordial germ cells, the precursor cells to sperm and eggs. “Our avian team’s breakthrough in deriving culture conditions that allow pigeon primordial germ cells to survive long-term is a significant advancement for dodo de-extinction,” Colossal CEO and co-founder Ben Lamm said in a press release. The temptation to bring back Dromornis stirtoni will not be fended off for long. After that, its just a hop, skip, and jump to the running and screaming phase of human extinction.

Ivanhoe Posted October 10 Author Posted October 10 https://notthebee.com/article/florida-man-allegedly-steals-thousands-in-scratch-off-tickets-returns-to-store-hours-later-to-redeem-winnings Quote Back in spring, a Florida man allegedly stole $7,000 worth of scratch-off tickets from a convenience store in St. Petersburg. He would, I kid you not, return to the Circle K hours later to redeem his winnings. Quote So first, as you might imagine, 43-year-old Justin Farley walked into the Circle K, did his thing, and robbed them of what would become $7,000 worth of lottery tickets. And since it takes a while to scratch off as many tickets as Farley stole, he would return to an area 7-Eleven forty minutes later to redeem his winnings. The tickets were either not activated by the clerk at Circle K, were reported stolen, or they were just duds, so this did not work like Farley thought it would and the tickets wouldn't pay out. So he headed -- get this -- back to the Circle K which he had robbed hours earlier. Just not his day.
