Can't make this (stuff) up

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Saw this on Reddit.

Dude made a basket out of vines he harvested. Real cool.

Except unbeknownst to him said vines are poison ivy:

We made wristbands out of poison ivy in cub scouts (3rd grade)
I guess if it doesn't affect you it's cool because you can wear it to ward off those looking to get in your personal space.

I'm not laughing, this is just a sad and very weird pandemic twist:
Son allegedly stabs father to death during Zoom video chat: Police

... Dwight Powers, police said, was on a Zoom video chat with about 20 people when he was stabbed by his son, Thomas Scully-Powers, just after 12 p.m. Thursday in Long Island, New York.

Several people in the chat called 911 following the attack.

Scully-Powers, 32, fled and was apprehended at Ketcham Avenue and Cedar Street at 12:57 p.m., authorities said.

He was charged with 2nd-degree murder and was transported to a local hospital for minor injuries he sustained while jumping out of a window, police said.

Those on the video chat noticed Dwight Powers fall and then saw another person on the screen, police said, according to ABC New York station WABC.

"Bedsheets were being ripped off the bed by a gentleman who appeared to be naked as well as bald and he had a tattoo on his left arm, and then he placed the bedsheets on the floor as if he was covering something up," said a witness to the incident who did not want to be identified, WABC reported....
Other sources: It happened in Amityville. :shock:

Must have been some sort of cat fan type shit that precipitated it. Typical.

Woman accused of trying to use 'rent a hitman' website to have her ex-husband killed for $5,000

Image

A Michigan woman is behind bars after trying to hire an assassin from "rentahitman.com," which turned out to be a fake website.

Wendy Wein was arrested Friday after she visited the joke website and filled out a "Rent-A-Hitman Service Request Form" to request a consultation, according to police reports.

The website's owner, Bob Innes, reported the woman's request to the police.

According to the Monroe News, an undercover state trooper posing as an assassin arranged a meeting with Ms Wein to discuss her proposal. At the meeting, Ms Wein offered the trooper $5,000 to kill her ex-husband. She was then taken into custody.

Ms Wein was charged with solicitation to commit murder and illegal use of a computer to facilitate a crime. She's currently being held on a $500,000 bond....

The site's actual owner, Mr Innes, claims his site is responsible for alerting law enforcement to at least 130 potential murders....

The website isn't subtle in its humour, though it's on-the-nose absurdism was apparently lost on Ms Wein.

"I can't believe someone would thank that a website like this exists," Michigan State Police Lieutenant Brian Oleksyk said.
In an exclusive Independent interview 32 year old Wendy Wein whined that her ex-husband called her "ugly and stupid".

:lol: About a month ago I saw a Jimmy Kimmel video where he was wearing a mask that had a graphic of part of his nose and his mouth and chin on the front of it.....the effect was that it looked like he wasn't even wearing a mask. At the time, I said :o "man, I gotta get me a mask like that" but I've not seen any that are available. Just my luck.

Good grief.

:lol: Director of National Intelligence.....hilarious. Nobody ever heard of this clown before he made an ass of himself showing his fealty to trump during the House impeachment hearings. I bet he and Jared compare the colors on their top secret security clearances and argue about which color is the most pleasing.

Spoiler:
... The rat turned out to be a very creative Halloween prop, which is reported to have been stored in a warehouse but 'washed away' during heavy storms in Mexico, leaving its owner with no idea where it had gone....
