  • The life and death of Rockin Richie

    The life and death of Rockin Richie

    Let’s talk about Rockin’ Richie. If you were one of the folks who followed him on TikTok, you know who I mean. And if not, let me fill you in a bit. Rockin’ Richie wasn’t some guy who set out to be an influencer. He ended up in that role because he was dealing with stage 4 colon cancer and decided to share his journey, his choices, and his struggles with the world. And yeah, a lot of people followed along.

    After many of us following this journey we have come to a close. He has now succumbed to his Earthly fate, a few rumors have persisted for days since his last video but his brother went on Tiktok to announce this to his followers..

    There was controversy wit this social media feed.. Richie talked about alternative treatments.. stuff that wasn’t the usual medical route. He was trying a mix of diet changes, water cleanses, and homeopathic approaches that didn’t have the backing of mainstream medicine. And when he talked about putting GoFundMe money into a trust fund for his daughter, some people got really suspicious. They started accusing him of faking the whole thing just to get money, which was tough to watch unfold.

    But here’s the thing, Richie was a real person going through a brutal journey. And yes, it was his body, his choice. He decided to fight cancer his way, even if a lot of people, including doctors and nurses, might have wished he’d gone a more traditional route.

    We all sort of went on that experimental path with him by watching his updates. He even did a Livestream a couple of months ago where he went to a doctor in real time, hoping to hear good news that his tumor had shrunk from these alternative treatments. Instead, he got the devastating news that the tumor had grown. It was heartbreaking for everyone watching, but Richie stuck to his chosen path.

    On that note, there is also some commentary on us as people who followed him. He wanted to eventually come up with his own book and YouTube channel to talk about how he beat cancer. The doctors of course told him he wouldn’t, and he didn’t. But in the common threads on social media many people who supported him continued supporting his desire to do alternative treatments, which in hindsight perhaps was a seemingly rotten thing to do. He just needed medicine but instead many in his fan base, loyal to the end, was encouraging him to avoid that. Just because it’s social media, doesn’t mean it’s all fake…

    Maybe some people think that was foolish, and maybe others respect it as his personal choice. Either way, he fought his fight the way he wanted to, in the end.

    Now he’s at peace.. whatever peace means, wherever we go after this life. And I bet deep down, even the people who disagreed with his treatment goals were probably rooting for him, because cancer is something we all wish we could see beaten for good.

    So, may Rockin’ Richie rest in peace. We might not all agree on the path he took, but we can respect that he chose to share his journey and fought as hard as he could.

    Did something make the jump?

    Media is reporting what is being called a startling first..

    A Washington state man has been infected with a strain of bird flu previously only detected in animals and never before in humans..

    The “severely ill” man was hospitalized with a high fever, confusion and respiratory distress earlier this month and confirmed to have H5N5, a subtype of avian influenza carried by wild birds like ducks and geese.

    It is being reported that he has health conditions and is older.

  • Cue the pun: Monkeys business

    Cue the pun: Monkeys business

    LoRemember a couple of years ago in Danville, Pennsylvania, when that truck full of monkeys crashed and they got loose for several days? Those monkeys were supposedly carrying some kind of virus, and the whole town was on edge while they ran around before finally being caught. Wild times.

    Well, it’s happening again, this time in Mississippi.

    Authorities there say several monkeys “have been destroyed,” but three are still on the loose after a truck carrying them crashed on Tuesday.

    At first, the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department posted on Facebook that the rhesus monkeys were carrying Hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID, and were considered aggressive toward humans … meaning anyone handling them needed to wear protective gear.

    But later, the sheriff’s office clarified those comments with a statement from Tulane University, confirming the monkeys were not infected after all.

    Tulane University says they’ll be sending a team tomorrow to collect the remaining monkeys still in cages.

    As of right now, police say three monkeys are still on the loose.

  • Aliens on the senate floor.

    Aliens on the senate floor.

    Sen. John Kennedy, the well-known and outspoken senator who has provided the internet with countless memes and offbeat committee-room moments, has done it again. This time, it was during a speech about radioactive shrimp from Walmart.

    With his trademark flair, Kennedy brought out a giant cardboard photo of the alien from the movie Alien. At one point, he even joked that we might become the alien ourselves if we ate radioactive shrimp. But then, in classic Kennedy fashion, he pivoted to a serious note. And no matter your political party, he had a point.

    Countries like the United Kingdom and China do a much better job inspecting their food imports than the United States does. Kennedy reminded us that while “radioactive shrimp from Indonesia” sounds absurd, it’s not isolated. Since that frozen shrimp recall, more recalls have popped up—cooked shrimp, shrimp cocktail—across stores like Walmart and Kroger nationwide.

    Kennedy didn’t mince words: it’s unconscionable that our system lets this happen. The isotope found in the shrimp isn’t some minor contaminant—it’s dangerous, deadly even. And the truth is, this probably won’t be the last time something like this happens.

    So yes, we got the meme-worthy image of an alien propped up on the Senate floor. But behind the humor, there’s a serious conversation we should be having about food safety in America.

  • Black-and-blue Donald

    Black-and-blue Donald



    There is high drama today surrounding the health of the president. The 79-year-old commander-in-chief, Donald Trump, has been spotted several times with strange bruising on his hand. Last week, he appeared to be using white makeup to cover the marks. But during a signing ceremony in the Oval Office today, the dark black-and-blue bruising was clearly visible once again — the same type of discoloration that has now been observed multiple times. News outlets, including the Drudge Report, have elevated this to top-story status.



    For those following the paranormal angle, there’s been a wave of chatter on TikTok. Several self-proclaimed psychics claimed they were in communication with spirits who warned that August 23rd would be a “dark day” for the President. Well, it’s now August 24th — the day has passed with no catastrophe. Unless, of course, you interpret “darkness” as the black-and-blue bruising on his right hand.

    Either way, the questions about Trump’s health remain. Many will continue to watch closely as speculation grows, not only about the mysterious hand bruising but also about ongoing reports of swelling in his legs and other unexplained physical changes.

    As this story develops, the speculation will only deepen — whether you’re looking at it through the lens of politics, health, or even the there are normal aspects of entities telling us what will happen during in current events.

  • A Legionnaires cluster has hit New York City

    A Legionnaires cluster has hit New York City

    The latest outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease in Central Harlem has killed three people so far and sickened at least 73 others, as of 5 p.m. Wednesday, according to the New York City Health Department.

    It typically spreads when people inhale mist containing Legionella bacteria, which can grow in buildings’ water-cooling tanks, making it a longtime scourge for New York City.

    City health officials say they have taken steps to control the outbreak but are still urging anyone experiencing the flu-like symptoms associated with Legionnaires’ disease to seek medical treatment. The current outbreak is affecting ZIP codes 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037 and 10039 and the surrounding areas.

    A Bizarre Story Resurfaces—Again

    This morning, while browsing headlines, I found a Drudge Report link to The Sun (UK). We all know The Sun is a tabloid, and this headline was as sensational as they come: a virgin woman became pregnant through oral sex.

    Their health reporter wrote it up..

    At first glance, it sounds shocking and absurd. But what makes it even stranger is that this case dates back to 1988. Whether it’s true or not, it was well-documented at the time. The real issue is that news outlets are now reporting it as if it just happened—an obvious attempt at clickbait.

    The story revolves around a 15-year-old South African girl who was reportedly caught performing oral sex on another man by her boyfriend. A violent altercation followed, and during the fight, the boyfriend stabbed her in the abdomen. According to reports from that time, sperm on the knife led to her pregnancy.

    Before dismissing the story entirely, consider this: the girl was born with a rare condition affecting about a few thousand people worldwide—she had no vaginal opening, making traditional conception impossible.

    This isn’t the first time The Sun has run this story.

    ABC news was among those reporting it 15 years ago, as well..

    Through a Google keyword search (archive), Snopes determined a few years that iterations of the incident have circulated in online circles since at least 2010 and have recirculated frequently in the years following. 

    Every few years, they bring it back, saying the report has “resurfaced.” It seems like a cheap trick to drive clicks—and, well, it worked. I clicked. But I wonder how many other people saw the headline and reacted with the same disbelief.

    This is what makes things so annoying — while we may have some proof the story was true, it seems disingenuous to continue recycling it repeatedly to get your attention. And is the HORROR REPORT any better for publishing something being critical–and also being a part of this 88-bait?

  • Can we please stop eating bats?

    Can we please stop eating bats?

    Clearly it isn’t working out for us anymore.

    An unknown illness first discovered in three children who ate a bat has rapidly killed more than 50 people in northwestern Congo over the past five weeks, health experts say.

    The interval between the onset of symptoms – which include fever, vomiting and internal bleeding – and death has been 48 hours in most cases and “that’s what’s really worrying,” said Serge Ngalebato, medical director of Bikoro Hospital, a regional monitoring center.

    These “hemorrhagic fever” symptoms are commonly linked to known deadly viruses, such as Ebola, dengue, Marburg and yellow fever, but researchers have ruled these out based on tests of more than a dozen samples collected so far.

  • The 2025 mutation

    The 2025 mutation

    Various news reports are adding fear to the end of the year..

    The AFP reports this:

    The bird flu virus found in a severely ill patient hospitalized in the United States has mutated to become better adapted to human airways, though there is no evidence it has spread beyond the individual, authorities said.

    Earlier this month, officials announced an elderly Louisiana patient was in “critical condition” with a severe H5N1 infection.

    An analysis posted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on its website Thursday found that a small percentage of the virus detected in the patient’s throat had genetic changes that may lead to “increased virus binding” to certain “cell receptors found in the upper respiratory tract of humans.”

    …we cannot do this again…

    Art of the seed oil deal

    Basically the entire Trump cabinet appeared at UFC 309..

    On a casual plane ride after on Trump Force One, an interesting image was snapped of the entire team eating McDonalds. One man appeared stressed.. slightly sweaty.. Pondering his moment in time.

    This is the face of a man who doesn’t to eat seed oil or sugary beverages looks in a group of others who peer pressure him into it….

    We will make America Health again.

    But tomorrow.. starting tomorrow.

    That is what the art of the deal looks like..

    First this?
    Then that?
