The island of Manhattan boasts so many soaring towers, that it’s hardly news when a new one shoots up—even if its spire pierces the clouds. That said, now and then, there’s an exception in the form of an ambitious architectural masterpiece, like the west side’s new 90-story Affirmation Tower, a five-tiered, terrazzo-clad skyscraper that, upon closer inspection, appears to be upside down. Developed by Don Peebles, the chief operating officer at the Peebles Corporation, and designed by AD100 architect Sir David Adjaye, Affirmation Tower is as symbolic as it is enormous (1,663 feet tall and two million square feet.)

A professor at Wayne State University in Detroit was giving a lecture on Paranormal Studies.To get a feel for his audience, he asks, "How many people here believe in ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands. "Well, that's a good start. Out of those who believe in ghosts, do any of you think you have seen a ghost?" About 40 students raise their hands. That's really good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?" About 15 students raise their hand. "Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?" Three students raise their hands....

Sen. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) achieved the impossible on Thursday by bringing all Americans together. How did she manage to pull off this phenomenal feat? By commemorating the one-year anniversary of the Capitol riot with a song from the cast of the hit musical Hamilton.... While the public was busy sparring over the significance of Jan. 6—which saw Republicans spreading conspiracy theories to pass off the blame as Democrats made outlandish comparisons to 9/11 and Pearl Harbor—the D.C. establishment was busy shooting itself in the foot. Pelosi presented to her fellow lawmakers a pre-recorded clip over Zoom of the Hamilton cast...

NEW YORK, NY—Sources in Washington confirmed today that the National September 11 Memorial will be filled in and replaced with a new January 6 memorial that commemorates the zeroes of people killed on that fateful day. The memorial will be a 50-foot-tall bronze statue of Nancy Pelosi's stolen podium.

"I've designed this statue to give people...

In the Netflix reboot titled “Cobra Kai,” now in its fourth season, the original actors have returned as adults who run their own dojos, but are still clinging to their old rivalry, which infects their own karate-obsessed children. Cobra Kai’s ruthless sensei John Kreese (Martin Kove) also returns, as does his gray-haired henchman Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith). Martial arts fervor sweeps over the suburbs of Los Angeles, and kids join Miyagi-Do, Cobra Kai and Lawrence’s upstart Eagle Fang as if they were street gangs. The animosity becomes so vicious that one student is literally paralyzed during a fight at...

Cars are bad, mmkay…And that's why a new French law will require car commercials to "display messages that encourage walking, cycling, carpooling or public transit."I'm not joking.Very serious stuff right here.Like, we'll let you advertise your carbon-emitting vehicle, but you must display this little message here that encourages people to pursue alternative forms of transportation.Deal?Deal.Such a joke!Much like the "Please enjoy responsibly" disclaimers on ads for alcoholic beverages, or health warnings on cigarette packaging, car commercials will be required to display messages that encourage walking, cycling, carpooling or public transit.These messages include "For short trips, choose to walk or cycle,"...

When will Ray Epps not kill himself?I originally thought it would be sometime before the GOP took control of Congress with a new January 6 Committee that would investigate what REALLY happened that day (such as find the ID of the pipe bomb guy, the fence cutter guy, and the blue and white megaphone guy in the tower). At the very top of the list of people for the new January 6 Committee to subpoena would of course be Ray Epps. That would mean Ray Epps would have to not kill himself sometime before a new January 6 Committee begins...

FT. WORTH, TX—While his wife was in bed with a stomach virus all day, local father Todd Fennick had high praise for his ability to care for their four kids without her. “She needs to stay in bed today, and that’s fine, because I think I’m doing a great job, frankly,” said Fennick as he served his children a lunch consisting of paper plates holding a handful of shredded cheese, a Slim Jim, a dollop of cookie butter, and some packets of crackers that he found in the junk drawer. Four-year-old Padme Fennick, who appeared to be wearing paper towels...

ARGENTINA—Communist dictators such as Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong have grown increasingly jealous of the attention Adolf Hitler is getting even though he’s killed so few people. “Six million jews?! That’s nothing,” commented Mao with the aid of an interpreter. “Yes, yes, [unintelligible] I know he killed gypsies too, but they don’t count. I kill in my sleep like a man. I blink and a million more are gone!” (Note: Mao was stoic as he spoke, but the interpreter waved her arms wildly to add further emphasis.) “You know,” said Stalin thoughtfully. “I don’t think he’s even killed anyone himself....
