We Have a Virgin Crocky
A crocodile that has been living in isolation in a zoo for 16 years just laid eggs and one of the eggs hatched as a full formed crocodile that was stillborn. This is the world’s first documented case of facultative parthenogenesis- or reproduction without males- among crocodiles.
Anyone else notice the eyes looked a lot like the night security guy? #LifeFfindsAWay.
RFK Jr Worries About CIA

Cornel West: RFKJr Needs to Get Off the Crack Pipe
West is running for President on the independent ticket and said about Robert F Kennedy Jr. “You want a presidential candidate, and I think you just want this in any human being, to have backbone, to have integrity, to have consistency, not to check what you deeply believe after you’ve had some dialogue or discourse with a group of people or community that’s going to be shaping and molding how you perceive the world. If he thinks somehow that each [Palestinian] baby who was killed somehow was never in any way, intentional, deliberate, they didn’t know what they were doing…he needs to really get off the crack pipe.”
You’re not coming off very presidential .
You Can No Longer Take the 666 to Hel in Poland
Religious groups protested the fact that there was a bus #666 that had as one of its stops a town called Hel. It really annoyed them that tourists would line up to take the 666 to Hel, and they felt it trivialized the concept of salvation and damnation. They got their way but to keep costs down, the decision was made to just flip that last 6 and make the bus the 669 now.
Wait until they find out what 669 means. #69withoneinthebut #threesome
The religious group is also trying to get the highway that takes you to that town downgraded to a road.

US Mexico Game Shut Down Early
The United States National Soccer Team beat Mexico Thursday night but the game got shut down while there was still time on the clock because of homophobic chants by fans of the Mexican team. “Chants heard during the game led to the activation of the anti-discrimination protocol by the match officials. Additionally, security staff ejected several fans for engaging in unacceptable behavior in the stadium,” the organization said.
In Mexico that’s just called a chant.

Will Tampa Bay Rays Follow the As Move

Video Goes Viral Cause No One Knew CVS Was Shorthand for Something Else
A tiktoker named Nisa went viral after saying she bought something at “Consumer Value Store” when others realized she was talking about CVS because none of us ever thought about what the hell kind of a name is CVS and what does it mean. Turns out the store started out as Consumer Value Store and abbreviated as the chain began to grow.
Then why do they mark everything up 20%?
