ποΈ today's date is 9-1, which kinda makes me think of 911 emergency calls. But did you know that September 1st is actually known as "National No Rhyme (Nor Reason) Day"? It's a day that celebrates words in the English language that don't rhyme with any other words. Like, try finding a word that rhymes with "orange" or "silver." Bet you can't! ππ
π¨ From Thrift Store to Auction House: $4 Art Piece Could Make Hundreds of Thousands
Source: nypost
So, picture this: A woman walks into a Savers thrift store in New Hampshire back in 2017, looking for some frames to spruce up and flip. She spots this art piece for just four bucks and thinks, "Why not?" Takes it home, puts it in her bedroom and eventually forgets about it. Fast forward to her cleaning out her closet, and bam! Turns out, the artwork is a legit N.C. Wyeth creation. For those not in the know, Wyeth was a big-deal American artist, okay?
Now get this, the painting could rake in between $150,000 to $250,000 at auction. It was part of a series Wyeth did for a 1939 edition of the novel "Ramona." After posting a pic of it in a Facebook group, a museum conservator recognized its value and gave her the 411. Now, she's laughing all the way to the auction house. Talk about a thrift store jackpot! π€πΌοΈ (Source)
π₯ Oprah and The Rock Team Up for Maui Wildfire Relief Fund

Hey, so Oprah Winfrey and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are stepping up big time! They've teamed up to donate $10 million to help folks in Maui affected by those super tragic wildfiresβthe deadliest in the U.S. for over 100 years, can you believe it? Both have special ties to Hawaii; Oprah owns a home there, and The Rock spent part of his childhood in the Aloha State.
Here's the scoop: They're starting the People's Fund Of Maui to send moolah "directly" to residents who are scrambling to rebuild. Taking inspo from Dolly Parton's My People Fund, this new initiative aims to put cash straight into the pockets of those who need it, no funny business. If you've lost your main crib to the fires and you're over 18, you can apply to get $1,200 per month. Homeowners and renters are welcome; just no absentee landlords, okay? ππΈ (Source)
π Possible Space Rock from Another Star Found Off Papua New Guinea
Source: sciencealert
Yo, this is kinda wild. Researchers, led by Harvard's Avi Loeb, went diving off Papua New Guinea and may have found bits of a meteor that didn't originally come from our Solar System. Yeah, you heard that rightβa rock from another star! This meteor caught the U.S. government's eye back in 2014 because it was moving crazy fast. So, they went treasure hunting and found these teeny beads that have a chemistry that's not like anything we'd expect to find in our own backyard in space.
But hold on a sec, not everyone's convinced. Some scientists are saying we shouldn't jump to conclusions, and even the Papua New Guinean government is mad, claiming the research team might have been there illegally. Plus, the findings are tied to the Galileo Project, which is also on the hunt for signs of alien tech, so you know this is gonna stir the pot. Either way, it's a pretty exciting time for space nerds, although we've gotta wait for more info to know for sure what's up with these cosmic crumbs. πΈπ€ (Source)
