Cleveland Heights Resident Fights for Safety After Multiple Crashes Into His Home

 

A Cleveland Heights homeowner is taking drastic measures to protect his property after multiple cars have crashed into it over the years. John Gao has seen three major incidents in the past decade, including a police chase in 2021 that ended with a car smashing into his kitchen and another crash in 2022 that destroyed his garage. Frustrated by the city's lack of action, he has taken matters into his own hands by covering his property with signs demanding change.

Gao says the situation has made it nearly impossible to get affordable homeowners insurance. His rates have skyrocketed, and he fears another claim could lead to his policy being dropped entirely. At one point, a guardrail stood in front of his home, but it was removed in the early 2000s, and the city has refused to reinstall it. Instead, officials placed large rocks as a temporary solution, which Gao believes is not enough to prevent future accidents.

The city has offered to buy his home at market value, but Gao refuses to accept the deal. With no mortgage and his home paid off, he argues that finding a comparable property at the same price would be impossible. Instead, he is demanding a real solution to keep his home safe.

In the meantime, Gao continues to paint and display signs, hoping to draw attention to the problem. He has even hired an attorney to push for action. Until the city steps in with a permanent fix, he fears his home will remain a target for reckless drivers.

"Are We the Baddies?" — A Darkly Hilarious Take on Self-Reflection

One of the most iconic sketches from That Mitchell and Webb Look, Are We the Baddies? delivers a sharp and darkly comedic moment of self-awareness. Starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb as two Nazi officers, the scene follows their growing unease as they begin questioning whether they might actually be the villains in World War II.

The humour comes from their slow realisation, sparked by the observation that their uniforms feature skull insignias. Hardly the symbol of the good guys. Mitchell’s character awkwardly tries to justify their position, while Webb’s growing discomfort only adds to the absurdity. The sketch perfectly encapsulates the show’s signature mix of wit and satire, using historical context to highlight the uncomfortable truth about blind loyalty and the nature of evil.

Since airing in 2006, Are We the Baddies? has taken on a life of its own. It has become a popular internet meme used to mock individuals or groups realising they may not be on the right side of history. Its enduring relevance proves that great comedy often comes from the simplest yet most profound observations.

Elon Musk trolls CNN again! This time with the name Harry Bolz

CNN, once a pioneering force in 24-hour news, has devolved into a network plagued by sensationalism, bias, and declining credibility. Instead of delivering balanced journalism, it often prioritizes ratings over facts, pushing partisan narratives that cater to specific audiences rather than fostering informed discourse. Its obsession with breaking news has led to frequent inaccuracies, retractions, and an overreliance on anonymous sources, damaging its reputation. Once a trusted source, CNN now finds itself struggling to maintain relevance in a media landscape where independent journalists and alternative platforms increasingly expose its inconsistencies and agenda-driven reporting.

Independent Artist Accuses Disney of Selling His Artwork Without Permission

An independent artist has accused Disney of copying and selling his artwork without permission. The artist, known online as Monster Caesar Studios, originally created a fan art sculpture inspired by Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room. The unique piece gained attention on social media, with fans praising its craftsmanship and originality.

Years later, in 2022, the artist was shocked to discover that Disney was selling a nearly identical sculpture in its parks and online stores. Claiming his work had been used without consent, he took to social media to call out the company, sharing side-by-side comparisons of his original piece and Disney’s version.

Here is the latest update.

Paul Joseph Watson on Morbidly Obese Detroit Rapper Who Has Sued Lyft Over Alleged Weight Discrimination

 

A Detroit rapper has taken legal action against Lyft, claiming one of its drivers refused her a ride because of her weight. Dajua Blanding, known by her stage name Dank Demoss, filed a lawsuit in Michigan's Circuit Court for Wayne County, naming both the rideshare company and the driver, identified as John Doe, as defendants.

According to the lawsuit, the incident occurred on January 18 when Blanding requested a Lyft to take her from her home to a cousin’s house for a football watch party. Around 10 to 15 minutes later, the driver arrived, but as she approached the vehicle, he allegedly locked the doors and attempted to drive away.

Blanding, shocked by the driver’s actions, asked why he was refusing her service. According to court documents, the driver allegedly responded that she was “too big to fit in the back seat” and that his tires “were not capable of supporting” her weight. Blanding, disputing his claims, told the driver that there was sufficient room and that she did not require a larger vehicle.

The lawsuit accuses Lyft and the driver of discrimination and seeks accountability for the alleged mistreatment. As the case unfolds, it raises broader concerns about accessibility and inclusivity in rideshare services. Lyft has not yet issued a public response to the lawsuit.

Mark Dice covers the "swamp's" reaction to the end of USAID as their personal slush fund

 

USAID provides billions in foreign aid, but mismanagement and corruption often undermine its mission. Reports reveal funds being lost to fraud, wasted on ineffective projects, or misallocated due to political interests. Weak oversight allows money to disappear into the hands of corrupt officials and contractors, especially in conflict zones like Afghanistan.

Lack of transparency and accountability makes tracking spending difficult. Some funds serve strategic political goals rather than urgent humanitarian needs. To fix this, USAID must enforce stricter audits and oversight to ensure aid reaches those who truly need it. Without reform, waste and inefficiency will continue.

Elon Musk’s Quest to Be a ‘Pro Gamer’ is as Cringeworthy as It Sounds

 

Elon Musk has conquered industries, from electric cars to space travel, but there’s one title he desperately craves yet can’t seem to earn, Pro Gamer. The billionaire has long boasted about his gaming prowess, but reality paints a far less flattering picture.

For years, Musk has clung to the claim that he was among the world’s best Quake players in the 1990s, though there’s little to back this up. More recently, he’s turned his attention to Path of Exile 2, apparently fabricating accomplishments in the game, while also twisting the legitimacy of Diablo 4 speed runs to suit his narrative. His struggles with Elden Ring have already made him an industry punchline, yet he refuses to let go of the fantasy that he’s among gaming’s elite.

Musk may be the richest businessman on the planet, but in the gaming world, he’s just another try-hard failing to prove himself.

Either way I am sure Elon Musk is crying into his hundreds of billions of dollars right now.
