UFO: US Navy reports on mysterious aircraft launching from sea

A group of unidentified flying objects spotted by Navy sailors is raising eyebrows after witnesses reported watching the oddly-shaped aircraft rise from the ocean before jetting off in a synchronized fashion last year. The four aircraft were spotted by sailors aboard USS Jackson while off the coast of California last year, Jeremy Corbell, co-host of the "Weaponized" podcast, told Fox 11. "[This] is a machine that is able to outpace, outmaneuver, and outperform anything that we know of that's been made by technology and terrestrial nations," Corbell said.

Two 'proof of heaven' stories and one 'proof of hell' that had atheist calling out for Jesus to save him

Ole Braatelien What happens to our consciousness the moment we die? Christians believe our souls end up in one of two places: Heaven or Hell, according to the Bible. For atheists and non-Christians, beliefs about our immediate destination after death are as diverse as the various sects themselves. Some people, however, don’t need to guess. That’s because they’ve reportedly been to the other side and lived to tell about their serene — or horrifying — experiences. Christian journalist Lee Strobel documented many of these cases in his new book “Seeing the Supernatural: Investigating Angels, Demons, Mystical Dreams, Near-Death Encounters, and…

Man uses ChatGPT to challenge traffic violation ticket in court, wins

A 23-year-old Kazakh man recently became the first person in his country to use ChatGPT to successfully challenge a traffic violation ticket in a court of law. In December of 2024, Kenzhebek Ismailov was driving his mother to the hospital in Almaty, Kazakhstan’s largest city, when the car in front of them stopped for no apparent reason and blocked the entire lane, which happened to be the only car lane on that particular street. The only solutions he could think of were to bypass the stalled car through the bus lane on the right, or simply wait behind the car…

After keeping an eye on persons with ‘funny hairstyles’, Katsina Hisbah bans nightclubs

Katsina State’s morality police, the Hisbah Board, has officially declared nightclubs illegal, ensuring that anyone daring to enjoy themselves after sunset is in for a rude awakening. Citing “Islamic principles” and a desperate need to police personal choices, Hisbah’s Commander-General, Aminu Usman (Abu Ammar), made the grand announcement on Wednesday. In what can only be described as a crusade against enjoyment, Hisbah ordered nightclub owners to shut down their businesses immediately, warning that anyone caught defying the decree would face severe consequences. According to them, this is all in the name of “curbing immoral practices,” “protecting societal values,” and—of course—solving…

DOGE: 1.5m Americans listed as over 150 years old, 1,041 over 220 years old for social security benefits

Elon Musk and his crack team at the Department of Government Efficiency have been scouring federal data for signs of waste, fraud, and abuse. They may have found something massive at the Social Security Administration. Musk shared via X on Sunday that there are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Americans listed as alive in the Social Security databases who have probably been dead for quite a while. The database included over 1.3 million people between the ages of 150 and 159, nearly 122,000 between the ages of 160 and 169, and over 6,000 between the ages of 170…

Company offers free drinks and hangover leave to attract new workers

Unable to offer attractive wages, a Japanese tech company has been trying to attract new talent by offering ingenious benefits such as free alcoholic drinks at work and hangover leaves. Since the burst of the Japanese economic bubble in the early 1990s, the Japanese economy has been stagnating along with employee salaries. Even though some corporations have announced plans to increase starting wages in hopes of attracting new talent, small and medium-sized companies simply don’t have that option because their budgets don’t allow it. In order to compete with big players, they have to think outside the box and offer…

DOGE: $9m govt contract paid for 'social deception'

President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, run by Elon Musk, has uncovered stunningly wasteful and offensive spending by the federal government, and has been trying to cut that off, even clawing back funding at times.

The reelection of Yevgeny Pistsov, who was trying to secure a fourth consecutive term as mayor, seemed little more than a formality, as he was running against a fellow member of Vladimir Putin’s United Russia political party who also happened to be a subordinate of his and the wife…
