Ukraine has been locked in a conflict with Russian-backed separatists since 2014, and last week Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Moscow of building up troops on his country’s border, near territories controlled by Moscow-backed separatists. Ukrainian officials are worried that Russia plans to invade their country, so locals have taken to online memes that often go viral to relieve the stress and suppress the activity of Russian propaganda on the Internet. Among the memes circulating on the Ukrainian segment of social media, there is now a piece of funny news about the deploying of U.S. Air Force B-2 stealth bombers to […]

In protest-ridden Belarus, dissidents are using bitcoin to get around political repression. On Aug. 8, the day of a highly controversial presidential election, a city hall employee in the town of Pinsk named Maria Koltsyna went to a polling station with a white hairband on her wrist. It was a small gesture of protest: Belarusians who voted against the incumbent president Alexander Lukashenko wore white. Maria’s co-workers immediately took notice of her white accessory, and soon after she was fired. People in Belarus have been protesting the re-election of President Alexander Lukashenko for a month, claiming he was not the legitimate […]

Luckily, our animal pals are there to lend a helping hand on occasion. Footage shared on Twitter captures a chimpanzee and his human friend out on a stroll, walking hand-in-hand as the primate leads the way forward. When it is time for them to climb up to the second floor of their tree house, the considerate simian is more than happy to help up his human companion. To top it all off, the smart ape proceeds to fist-bump his pal. What a […]
The Trump administration’s efforts to deport undocumented immigrants en masse just got more expensive. And the agency charged with loading people onto planes and flying them back to their home countries is blaming the coronavirus pandemic for the price hike. In April, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, a division of the Department of Homeland Security, increased its payments under a contract awarded in 2017 to Classic Air Charter, a company that subcontracts chartered deportation flights out of the country, primarily to Mexico and Central and South America, but also, more recently to other regions. ICE attributed the price hike to the novel […]
We love our pets and do everything to provide for them, but what if we need some help ourselves? Well, it looks like some animals are always ready to come to the rescue – because they love us as much as we adore them. A dog carrying a morning newspaper to its owner was once a well-known ritual. Nowadays, with the press moving onto the Internet, our four-pawed friends still haven’t lost their habits…now carrying parcels delivered from various online shops. This golden retriever pup looks purposeful as it carries a parcel in its mouth and jumps with it right on the […]

The difficulties in building the pyramids are believed to have sparked various technological advances at the time of their construction 4,500 years ago, with one of them supposedly being a method for shipping huge limestone blocks along the Nile River. Cutting-edge isotope analysis has enabled researchers to shed light on breakthrough solutions used by the Ancient Egyptian civilisation and, in particular, the origins of the Great Pyramid of Giza, the grandest landmark of the Cairo outskirts and one of the Seven World Wonders, as revealed by Amazon Prime’s “Egypt’s Unexplained Files”. “Investigators begin considering how in a time before people know […]
New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio and his wife Chirlane McCray joined activists on Thursday to paint Black Lives Matter on the street in front of Trump Tower. De Blasio does this as violence soars in his city and businesses are still locked down.What an oaf.

However, for Dr. Robert Willis, Dean of Canterbury, who was holding an online prayer for Canterbury Cathedral earlier this week, the appearance of a cat during the morning broadcast might have earned many more viewers than usual. The cat, whose name is Tiger, was caught on camera stealing milk from a mug that stood on a table beside the priest. While Dr. Willis […]
As the pandemic rolls along, and time becomes even more and more of a distant memory, I’ve taken to three things: stress relief, mindfulness, and dealing with all of the bugs in my house. Calming down and breathing easy is important, and something that helps me take a step back is CBD. While CBD gummies are great for sleeping, and tinctures are excellent for travel, I’ve wanted something I can etch into my routine, or use to ease aches, pains, and even bug bites. I recently tested out the new hemp infused Cooling Gel from Charlotte’s Web, and it’s become my […]

US courts have been heavily relying on a 50-year-old legal loophole to shield cops from misconduct allegations, an investigation by Reuters claims. It allows officers to get off the hook even when their conduct is deemed unlawful. The share of civil rights cases, in which courts would resort to a controversial legal doctrine to shield officers from allegations of using excessive force, has been increasing in the recent years, Reuters has claimed in its new investigative report. The report draws on the data from 529 federal circuit court rulings published between 2005 and 2019 on appeals in the lawsuits where so-called […]
