WTF. Can't make it up.

More than 300,000 names have been removed from Ireland's electoral register over the past two years, in a major push to remove duplicate names as well as those who have either emigrated or died. The work is being undertaken by local authorities, overseen by An Coimisiún Toghcháin — the independent electoral commission — and funded by the Department of Housing and Local Government. […] Mr [Art] O’Leary said: “We also added 700,000 new voters to the register and over 600,000 people have updated their details, such as changed their addresses.” He added: “Right now, we have 31 separate registers, and...

An X user posted the photo of the 49-year-old politician posing on a bed wearing a skimpy slip, blasting Italy’s first woman prime minister as “shameful.” Meloni shared a screenshot of the post on Tuesday with an assurance that the photo is indeed fake — albeit fabulous. “Several fake photos of me are circulating, generated with artificial intelligence … I must admit that whoever created them, at least in the attached case, has also improved me quite a bit,” wrote the politician, who was elected in 2022. She went on to warn against ne’er-do-wells who use artificial intelligence to dupe...

Miners in Myanmar have discovered a rare ruby of enormous size, considered to be the second-largest by weight ever found in the conflict-battered Southeast Asian nation, state media reported Friday. The ruby, measuring 11,000 carats (2.2 kilograms, or 4.8 pounds), was unearthed near the town of Mogok, in the upper Mandalay region, the heartland of the lucrative gem-mining industry that has recently experienced intense fighting in the country’s wide-ranging civil war. According to a report from the state-run Global New Light of Myanmar, the newly found rough ruby was discovered in mid-April, just after the traditional New Year festival. While...

In a new physics milestone, scientists report that a time crystal and an external system have been successfully linked for the first time. The achievement, made by researchers at Aalto University’s Department of Applied Physics, marks the first demonstration of converting a time crystal—an unusual quantum system in which particles are in constant, repetitive motion in its ground state—into an optomechanical system. A range of potential technological applications, including new high-precision sensors, quantum storage systems, and other innovative capabilities, could result from the research, led by Jere Mäkinen and detailed in a new paper appearing in Nature Communications. A New...

The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, in partnership with WHO and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, conducted Catastrophic Contagion, a pandemic tabletop exercise at the Grand Challenges Annual Meeting in Brussels, Belgium, on October 23, 2022. The extraordinary group of participants consisted of 10 current and former Health Ministers and senior public health officials from Senegal, Rwanda, Nigeria, Angola, Liberia, Singapore, India, Germany, as well as Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The exercise simulated a series of WHO emergency health advisory board meetings addressing a fictional pandemic set in the near future. Participants...

Meanwhile, in the Democrat hellhole of California… A crazed Samurai sword-wielding man who was residing in a ‘low-income housing’ unit in Venice Beach, California, slashed a victim’s arm so badly that it was squirting blood everywhere. Venice Beach has turned into a crime-riddled, drug-infested tent city sh*t hole under Democrat leadership. The Los Angeles seaside city was once a world-famous tourist hot spot known for its boardwalk and outdoor gym, “Muscle Beach.” Now it’s a 3rd-world hellhole. On Thursday evening, the suspect, identified by The New York Post as a white man in his late 20s named Justin Tucker, retrieved...

It is that time again! The Silliness has returned! Happy happy, joy, joy!

A cross-dressing “tenant from hell” has terrorized a Bronx apartment building by wildly waving around weapons, masturbating in a hallway and almost causing a catastrophe when he turned on all his gas burners, according to footage and neighbors. The off-the-rails renter apparently wears an array of wigs when harassing neighbors and hasn’t paid rent in more than a year at the East 214th Street building in the Williamsbridge section of the Bronx, according to the building management company and apartment residents. But management can’t give him the boot just yet as building residents live in fear. “The blonde wig, he...

Acting royalty Meryl Streep is returning as sharp-tongued fashion editor Miranda Priestly in the upcoming The Devil Wears Prada 2, which hits cinemas worldwide next week. During the press tour for the sequel to the 2006 film, Streep commented on the popularity of The Devil Wears Prada with the LGBTQ+ community. “It makes me so happy! Would we have fashion without gay people?” she told Out magazine. “Forgive me, would we have anything? I...

I guess you could say she's sounding the alarm?... This took place this week in Venice at the city's 61st Art Biennale, one of the world's most "prestigious" modern art events. Austrian artist Florentina Holzinger created an exhibit at the Austrian Pavilion called "Seaworld Venice" to warn humanity that climate change is going to destroy us all... I suppose by comparison, hanging upside-down naked in a bell is pretty tame to her usual stuff?

While criticizing a recent speech, Ocasio-Cortez took issue with what she claimed was Rubio’s statement that America’s cowboys came from Spain. “My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain,” she said in her criticism of Rubio’s speech. “And I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African enslaved peoples would like to have a word on that.” The History Channel reports that America’s cowboy culture stretches back further than America itself, to the era of Spanish colonialism. “Hundreds of years before there was the American cowboy, there was the vaquero,” it says, referring to expert horsemen...

Ireland has the highest household electricity prices in the European Union, latest figures from Eurostat show. According to the figures from the EU’s statistical agency — which cover the second half of last year — electricity in Ireland cost 40.42 cent per kilowatt-hour (including VAT and levies), which was nearly 40% above the EU average of 28.96 cent. As a result, the average household in Ireland is paying around €480 a year more for its electricity compared to the EU average. The figures show Irish electricity prices jumped by 32.7% between July and December 2025, when compared with the same...

Sometimes what seems like a good idea at the time doesn't quite work out the way you pictured it. For example, when a firefighter in Spencerport, New York, was called in by a frantic owner to rescue a cat from a tree and all the usual methods like ladders drove the cat higher in the tree, he thought, "Wow, that's really high. There's got to be a better way." So, he got some people to stand under the tree with a blanket, and then cranked up the water cannon on top of the fire truck to spray the feline out....

Researchers have proposed a theoretical approach that could allow messages to be sent into the past using principles from quantum mechanics. Indeed, it could be happening right now already!The concept does not enable physical travel through time but focuses on information transfer through causal loops at the quantum scale.The work, accepted for publication in Physical Review Letters, builds on ideas from general relativity and quantum entanglement. A technique inspired by the film Interstellar suggests a new way of communicating backwards in time, but it could help improve conventional communication systems as well https://t.co/FXQTvhE6uE — New Scientist (@newscientist) May 2, 2026It...

Can you even imagine finding out that a stranger is secretly living in part of your home without your knowledge or permission? That’s exactly what happened to one family in Arkansas who started to notice that things around their home were being moved or going missing. They ventured into the dark corners of their basement and discovered that they had an uninvited guest. According to the family, they are not mad at the man, who was just seeking shelter. They feel bad for him, but don’t want him living in their basement, just the same. FOX News reports: Family makes...

U.S. — Members of the Democratic Party from across the nation issued a statement clarifying that everyone is an evil Nazi except that one guy running for Senate in Maine who has a Nazi tattoo. While the Democrats' political strategy for years had been to label all sorts of people as evil Nazis, ranging from Republican politicians to concerned parents at PTA meetings. But after Graham Platner became the presumptive Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate, the Democratic Party sought to explain that the man with the skull-and-crossbones "Totenkopf" tattoo was definitely not an evil Nazi. "Graham Platner is definitely...

San Francisco’s Vaillancourt Fountain caught fire as it was being disassembled on Wednesday morning, sending plumes of smoke into the sky as flames licked the sculpture’s 10-ton cantilevered arms. The news comes just a couple of weeks after the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department announced it was preparing to take apart the controversial landmark ahead of a $40 million renovation of the Embarcadero Plaza and Sue Bierman Park. “Today, during torch cutting activity, debris inside the tubes ignited,” Coma Te, director of communications for the San Francisco Arts Commission, which owns the fountain, told SFGATE in an email. “The...
