News of the Weird
News of the Weird
For some readers, News of the Weird is a light diversion from the serious reporting of the week. For others, though, it's a weekly chronicle of the alarming decline of civilization. Or a therapeutic personal benchmark (for reassurance that the problem is other people, not you). Or, for the few who actually wind up in News of the Weird, a monument to lives interestingly lived.

I hope it's not a dupe, I searched and could not find it picked by keroberos32 2 months ago

Take a walk on the weird side...
Searching for weirdness online is like searching for hay in a haystack. It’s everywhere. Rest assured, none of the boring or dodgy stuff has made it into Yahoo!’s trawl of the Weird Wide Web. These sites are in turn funny, interesting, curious and mind bogglingly strange. They represent the weird hobby of thousands, or the mad obsession of just a single web-head. They cover things th... read full post picked by robfouryqr 2 years ago

Latest Japanese Trend: Weird Themed Cafes
Japan's vibrant, fast-moving culture delivers daily doses of the weird, wild and wonderful! Take, for example, theme cafes. First popularized by nerdy "otaku" geeks and then embraced by the public at large, the theme cafe phenomenon shows no sign of running out of steam. Just the opposite - it seems new theme cafes pop up every week, each one seeking to be just a little weirder than what... read full post picked by deepcleanfun 11 months ago

Pulsed heartbeat of a weird new type of star
XMM-Newton has detected periodic X-ray emission, or the pulsed heartbeat of a weird new type of star. Collecting the X-rays from the so-called rotating radio transient has confirmed the nature of the underlying celestial object and given astronomers a new insight into these exotic objects. picked by AutumnLotus 8 months ago
