Confusing ... very confusing on several levels.

If she is a Vegan, then doesn't that mean she murders plants by eating them?
Also, while his tire may be slightly over the edge on the grass, she is stomping around all over the grass while making the point that grass is a living breathing thing.

Obviously she is mentally ill. He should have been the person 'calling the Police'.

Yeah, some part of her nutrition has been severely neglected. She's on bird legs and has heroin chic down pat. Makes about as much sense as a junkie, too.

 Park rangers are once again reminding the public to give wildlife their space after a woman from Upstate South Carolina was seriously injured by a bison out West.

A press release from the National Park Service says an 83-year-old woman from Greenville, South Carolina was gored by a bison on June 1 in Yellowstone National Park.

"The bison, defending its space, came within a few feet of the woman and lifted her about a foot off the ground with its horns," the release says.  ... The National Desk

A number of yeas ago Vergettte and I were on the island at the Great Salt lake. The Buffalo Roam free on the island. One came walking down the middle of the road like he owned it (Because in his mind he did) Al the traffic pulled off to the side. He walked in front of our Econo box rent a car. I jumped out and kept the car between he and I and managed to get a couple of good shots.

I don't know.....seems to staged for me.  Even vegans have to eat plants to survive. I don't think they believe that they're killing living organisms when they chow down on tree bark, grass, and assorted weeds.
 Plus, the guy or someone in his family is recording this. Seems set up.

Robot commits suicide: ‘Depressed’ cyborg hurls itself down flight of stairs

By Peter Cordi
June 29, 2024 1:47 pm

A South Korean robot’s “suicide” is being investigated by the Gumi City Council after the cyborg hurled itself down a two-meter, or six-and-a-half foot, flight of stairs on Wednesday.

The now-defunct robot was appointed a city council officer in August 2023 and was capable of calling an elevator and moving between floors on its own.

A city council official spotted the robot “circling in one spot as if something was there” before the incident occurred, according to French outlet Agence France-Presse. It was later found unresponsive and “smashed” to pieces.

“Pieces have been collected and will be analyzed by the company,” a Gumi City Council official relayed.

Local media headlines circulated following the robot suicide, asking things like “Why did the diligent civil officer do it?” or “Was work too hard” for the cyborg?

Don't let your car tire touch the grass - even of your own front yard - if there's a vegan whackjob in the vicinity.
This is so over-the-top, some suspect it's parody. I don't know.

Thanat Thangtewanon felt a sharp pain after he took a seat Tuesday, so he reached down and grabbed the snake by the neck and tried to rip it off his privates, according to Asia Pacific Press.

I ask you, who hasn't experienced the same problem in their lives? I'm getting damn tired of those snakes sneaking into my bathroom and biting me in parts of my body where I don't wish to be bitten.
 But what can I do?  The snake pit is right next to the bathroom. How they get the door open is beyond me.

Woman who murdered boyfriend in jealous rage over date with Miss Ohio is on the hunt for love

NZ Herald
15 Oct, 202

A US woman who shot her boyfriend in the face in a jealous fit of rage is looking for love with a new man from behind bars.



Shayna Hubers was sentenced to life in prison after she was found guilty of murdering her on-and-off boyfriend Ryan Poston while he was about to head on a date with Miss Ohio, Audrey Bolte.

According to court records, Poston 29, had tried to end his relationship with Hubers, 21.

During a police interview after her arrest, Hubers told detectives she was jealous of other women, saying she feared whether “anyone will ever want to marry me if they know that I killed a boyfriend in self-defence – not funny”.

Shayna Hubers (left) was sentenced to life in prison in 2018 after murdering her on-again-off-again boyfriend Ryan Poston in 2012.

She shot Poston six times in the face, back and torso before calling 911 where she admitted to the dispatcher that “I killed my boyfriend”.

She claimed Poston had pushed her and thrown her around in the lead-up to the shots being fired but three of her cell mates testified saying she boasted about giving Poston the “nose job he always wanted” and laughed about his death.

She told police he was “very vain” and that “one of our last conversations we had that was good was that he wants to get a nose job.”

“And I shot him right here. I gave him his nose job he wanted. I broke it.”

Two juries found her guilty of murder.

Inmate looking for love
Now, 12 years since the murders and six years since she married a transgender woman in a 30-second jailhouse ceremony, Hubers is back on the market and wanting to find love after splitting seven months following their wedding.

For the past few days, a 23-year-old man was suffering from indigestion and he visited doctors who ran routine tests. What they found in his stomach took them by surprise — inside the man’s small intestine was a cockroach, alive and kicking.

In a 10-minute endoscopy procedure, doctors at Fortis Hospital, Vasant Kunj, successfully removed the cockroach — 3 cm in size.  ...

The foolish Indian did not chew his food.  Had he chewed his food adequately, he would have killed the roach and digested it uneventfully.  People have been eating insects accidentally and intentionally for many centuries.  I got up one night and needed a snack. I pulled a fruit tart out of my locker in the dark and started eating it.  After four or five bites, I felt something crawling on my face. My fruit pie was covered with ants and I ate many of them and then went back to bed.  Oh look!  Still alive.  Two years ago, I captured m large rat in my cage on the fence designed to live trap squirrels that kept eating my oranges off my tree.  The large rat was escaping through the large square cage grate and I did not want him to escape so I pulled out my small pocket knife and stabbed him in the abdomen to kill him.  He turned around and bit me on my right index finger, drawing blood.   I threw the cage on the ground and stomped on his head, ending that fight.

I did not bother going to get rabies shots. I had them in the Army and they are painful.  I decided that rabies don't kill me. I kill rabies.

Post-exposure rabies shots (the series) can confer limited (as in no one knows exactly how long for any given individual) immunity. Antibody titers are used, generally after two years (from completion of the post exposure series), to determine if a booster is needed for people in high risk situations.

Woke Disney Does it Again

From The Patriot Post

Star Wars to introduce gender-confused stormtrooper: The systematic destruction of George Lucas's Star Wars universe has become par for the course for woke Disney. The latest example of this comes with the news that Disney plans to introduce into the Star Wars franchise a "trans woman" stormtrooper (a.k.a. a man who identifies as a woman) who will be named "Sister" and will be sporting armor painted with blue and pink stripes. This character is said to be one of the clone stormtroopers, which, of course, for Star Wars lore raises a significant consistency issue. The whole point of the clone stormtrooper army is that they all exhibit the same identity traits because they are all effectively the same. Of course, one could argue that since Disney blew up this one-clone notion with its introduction of Finn in the first sequel movie, what does it matter to inject another stormtrooper with an individual identity? Well, this lack of consistency to the original Star Wars universe has many old diehard Star Wars fans rejecting Disney's desecration of the franchise and dubbing it Disney Wars.

Gone are the Star Wars, now its just Culture Wars...with spaceships and sh*t...

An observation, however. As a kid who had read many of the classic books that Disney was basing movies on in the '60s, I noted that many of the stories diverged from the book, some only barely related. When I pointed this out to my parents, they only said that if you read the original, Disney would just mess it up.
Sorry, Mr. Lucas, it was fun while it lasted.
