Now, let’s get started…
📌 The prophet who predicted Trump's murder attempt warns of mega earthquake
Have you heard about Brandon Dale Biggs, the Oklahoma pastor who claims to get visions from God? Well, he’s back with a pretty alarming prediction. After correctly predicting the assassination attempt on Donald Trump (yes, really), he now says he’s seen a “10-magnitude” earthquake hitting the New Madrid Seismic Zone this spring. For context, this fault line runs through Missouri, Arkansas, and several other states. Biggs believes this massive quake will trigger a deadly aftershock, with thousands of lives lost and widespread destruction.
He also claims that this quake will happen three days after an attempt to push for a two-state solution in Jerusalem. He’s even gone as far as describing what he saw – Chinook helicopters flying in to deliver aid, houses shaking, and bridges gone. Yikes.
Now, I know what you’re thinking – a 10-magnitude earthquake? That sounds… extreme, right? And scientists agree. They say the New Madrid fault line is unlikely to experience something of that scale. The strongest earthquake ever recorded was a 9.5 in Chile, and that was in a subduction zone, not a fault like the New Madrid. Still, Biggs isn't backing down from his vision. He’s sticking to his story and pointing to past predictions he's made that have seemingly come true.
📌 Another prediction! Straight women don’t need men any more for sex. They have robots!
In 2016, a medical expert predicted that by 2025, women would choose robots over human partners for intimate relationships. As we are already there, it’s sparking conversations about how technology is shaping our connections.
While AI has come a long way - writing poetry, creating art, and having deep conversations - robotic partners are still in the “uncanny valley,” looking almost human but not quite there. Instead of replacing human relationships, AI has complemented them.
The original prediction overlooked how technology would enhance rather than replace relationships. Women are looking for tools that improve communication and deepen connections with real people, not robots. Dating apps, AI-driven compatibility tools, and social media have reshaped how we meet and connect with potential partners.
📌 Btw, people are suddenly stealing toys and selling them for hundreds of dollars
So, here’s a wild trend that’s been bubbling up - it's called the Jellycat crime wave. Yeah, you heard that right. It all kicked off around 2020 during the pandemic when these adorable, plush toys became the ultimate comfort for many people looking for some light in the chaos. Jellycats, created by a British company, come in all sorts of fun shapes, from bunnies to sausages to, get this, eggs on toast! They’ve been everywhere on social media, especially on TikTok, where people have been sharing their collections and trips to places like Jellycat Patisseries in New York and Paris. The problem? These toys are not cheap. And that's where the crime wave comes in.
People like Amber and Taylor have confessed to swiping Jellycats because, well, they just couldn’t justify spending £40 or more on a stuffed animal - especially during a cost-of-living crisis. For some, like Taylor, it’s even become a sort of game: she had a bet with a guy, and when he lost, he was supposed to buy her a Jellycat. But when he saw the price, he decided to steal it instead. Kind of crazy, right?
The crazy part doesn’t stop there. With Jellycats being so sought after, there’s a booming resale market, with some rare ones listed on eBay for double the price. And it turns out, many of the folks who are reselling stolen Jellycats might actually be doing so because they’re strapped for cash.
The thing is, more people are turning to shoplifting because they just can’t afford basic stuff anymore, let alone little luxuries like a cute stuffed toy. In fact, shop thefts are at an all-time high in the UK right now.
Now, I’m not saying stealing is the answer, but can we really blame people when they’re just trying to get their hands on something small that brings them joy?
