38 years undercover. Then the spy blew its cover… into orbit!

A Cold War-era US spy satellite suddenly broke apart. Accident, space junk, or something else?

We've turned the mystery into a musical whodunit.

What's your theory?

@Cockroachisback We thought you might like to see what your “cockroach revolution” looks like from Vermont. 🪳 A little musical cartoon about Gen Z turning an insult into something nobody expected — a voice for change. Hope it makes you smile! https://t.co/cNOGdcf6NZ

They called Gen Z “Cockroaches.”

Gen Z said, “Fine. We’ll keep the name.” 🪳

India’s Cockroach Janta Party went from satire to a real youth movement — proving humor, memes and group chats can become something much bigger.

Are we underestimating how much Gen Z can affect change?

A man paid $15 to enter an Arkansas state park—and left with a six-carat yellow diamond.

We’ve been visiting the wrong parks.

Well, this got weird fast.

A Fox News live feed appears to catch something strange near the Space Station.

Then the feed cuts.

Now the clip is going viral and the internet has just one tiny question:

UM… ARE WE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT?

RANDOM FACT: THE SCHOOLS GET TO SIT THIS ONE OUT

Florida Amendment 3 increases the homestead exemption for certain non-school property taxes.
That means the exemption we're talking about in the cartoon doesn't apply to school-district property taxes.

Apparently even Florida tax policy occasionally looks at a complicated situation and says:

“Leave the schools out of this one. We have enough math already.”

Did you catch the “non-school” part when you first heard about Amendment 3?

Florida: where even the tax breaks come with a plot twist.

Meet Amendment 3—and one very nervous calculator.

Your house smells incredibly clean.

Chemistry: “We need to talk.”

New research found fragrance compounds from some scented cleaners can react with indoor ozone and rapidly create ultrafine particles.

Maybe “smells clean” doesn't equal“clean air.”

Would you rethink scented cleaners?

Japan’s Shin Ohashi just broke the 200m breaststroke world record at 17.

The guy in the next lane is asking if he accidentally signed up for the 400m.

What happens when the world’s smartest neighbor moves in—with an extension cord the size of a highway?

The utility meter laughed until it short-circuited.

Watch before somebody asks you to split the bill.

AI said, “Just a little electricity.”

The utility meter laughed until it short-circuited. ⚡😂

Watch what happens when the world’s smartest neighbor moves in—and forgets who pays the bills.

The Pentagon released 71 UFO files.

The strangest part isn’t what they proved—it’s what they were willing to study.

What do you think is hiding in the fine print?

Canada and the EU are defining the relationship.

Just as soon as all 27 countries define “defining the relationship.”

#JustABitOffbeat #CanadaEU

[Just a Bit Offbeat @justabitoffbeat]

Canada may become the EU’s first “associate member.”

Nobody knows what that means yet—but the paperwork already looks confident.

Historic partnership or the world’s most complicated group chat?

Watch, then cast your unofficial vote.
