At 2am in Brooklyn, NY, seven people were spotted climbing out of a manhole, changed into fresh clothes by their cars and disappeared. It's the 3rd sighting since May, and New York's police still can't say why. Is this a secret post-apocalyptic bunker they're preparing? Or some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fanatics?

That thought may become less fantasy, more reality, when King Charles III visits the White House in April. The WH staff secretary has stated that “more likely than not, he will be hosted in a tent on the South Lawn with porta‐potties.” That's taking the 'porcelain throne' to another level... (FYI, Queen Elizabeth was hosted indoors during her visits with Bush Sr. and Jr.)

Because apparently “no parties” means the opposite. While the parents were on holiday, their kid threw a Halloween party that spiralled out of control. Up to 500 teenagers flooded a Radcliffe estate in Manchester, prompting police to arrive with tactical units. That kid is so grounded... for life!

Or as Jane Goodall, who passed away at 91, would've said, "sentient being." Ron Arias, a writer for People Magazine, wrote about a time when she walked up to a dangerous alpha chimp (in a cage being test for an AIDS vaccine) and simply let him touch and connect with her, because she knew that all he wanted was to be loved. Don't we all, don't we all... RIP Jane Goodall! ❤️
What is splooting? According to the U.S. National Park Service, it's "when an animal sprawls out [during high temperatures], usually face down with all arms and legs sticking out." It helps them cool down. Perhaps something we should try today! 🥵
In a rather unexpected twist of cosmic irony, it turns out that there are 96 bags of human waste left on the moon from the Apollo missions. NASA is now offering a whopping $3m for anyone who can devise a way to recycle this lunar litter. Who knew that our celestial neighbour would become a landfill?
In reference to Bruce Springsteen, Trump took to Truth Social to slam the rock star for speaking out against his administration. Moments before, he also lashed out at Taylor Swift (again), saying she's "no longer hot" - all while flying back home from the Middle East. You'd think Trump would have more important things on his mind than retaliatory social media posts.
That's what one mother in Kentucky found on her doorstep. Her 8yo had managed to order $4,000 worth of candy from her phone - as prizes for a carnival he wanted to host for friends. While a "sweet" gesture, parents might consider changing their phone passcodes.
Another casualty from Liberation Day... Heard and McDonald Islands, which form an external territory of Australia, are inhabited only by penguins. They were specifically called out in Trump’s list and hit with a 10% tariff. (Didn't realise there was a market for penguin feces. 😅)
