It’s always a challenge when you do a blood drive to get people to come donate. So usually you have to come up with some sort of incentive or catch to get people to show up. But this museum in Germany is has gone above and beyond with their idea and I’m kinda into it.
They are planning a big Dracula art exhibit where they will also be holding a blood drive (get it?! Dracula, blood, yeah you get it). They have partnered with the Red Cross to take the donations so don’t worry it won’t just be some pale guy with fangs taking your blood.
After all these years you would think the “Family Feud” would run out of people to survey. Are those surveys real? With real people answering? They are!
Producers and staff for the show so all the surveys by telephone, and asks each person the talk to about 30 to 40 questions. Which are then turned into questions/answers for the show.

We’ve all been there as parents. Making your kid’s school lunch only to have them come home later and tell you how much they hated it.
Luckily this mom turned it into a viral moment and is now giving back to others. A few years ago she posted a video of her kid coming home from his first day of school and telling her that the sandwich she made was terrible. (Here’s the video.)
What happened was that she didn’t have time to go grocery shopping and since they can’t have peanut butter in school because of other kid’s allergies she made him a butter and jelly sandwich. Which he obviously wasn’t a fan of.
The good part is that she has now launched a website called TerribleSandwich.com, where they sell merch and raise money for charity and people in need. 50% of the money raised will go to Feeding America they say.
If you happened to be looking up to the sky around 7:30-8pm on Saturday night you might have seen an ominous bright light streaking across the sky over Connecticut. As you can imagine the speculation started right away on social media. UFOs, meteors, asteroids, planes… but it was none of those things.
According to Spacex.com, there was a SpaceX launch happening on Saturday of a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. They rocket took off a little after 7:32 p.m. It was then visible to the entire east coast.
They say the rocket has 52 Starlink satellites which were being launched into low-orbit Earth that night.
