The Last Four Years Ch. 17: Doomsayer Protest at Tennessee Shelter Site Turns Violent [ [link removed] ]
In The Last Four Years, a comet is four years away from hitting Earth. It’s not enough time to stop it, but long enough to get bored waiting for it.

Dream of mother leads S.C. woman to $13,000 lottery prize [ [link removed] ] - I envy all of these people having useful dreams. The other night I had a dream that I was trapped in a Showbiz Pizza. What I am supposed to do with that?

Nudist resort residents furious after property owner demands they put clothes on, cuts off power [ [link removed] ] - I never thought I would actually say these words, but “I have to side with the nudists here.” It’s not like you can act surprised there were nudists around. It’s a nudist colony. It’s literally in the name
