  4. Man who spent $14K to transform himself into collie steps out for first-ever walk in public A Japanese native has transformed himself into a canine after forking out more than $14,000 for a custom-made collie costume. The private citizen, who goes only by Toco online, says the unusual garment has helped actualize his dream of “becoming an animal.” Footage shared to Toco’s YouTube channel, where he boasts more than 32,000 subscribers, shows him clad in the costume as he frolics on a lawn, rolls on a floor, and plays fetch. Toco has even uploaded a video of himself venturing out in public as a dog for the very first time. Bystanders appeared to be in awe of the man’s doggy debut as he paraded down a busy street in the viral clip, which has racked up 1.7 million views. Toco completed the costume with a harness strapped around his furry abdomen, but admitted he was “nervous” and “scared” of venturing out in public. “Do you remember your dreams from when you are little? You want to be a hero or a wizard,” he wrote in the clip, describing his life-dog dog dream as seemingly “unrealistic.” “I remember writing in my grade school graduation book that I wanted to be a dog and walk outside.” As an introduction to his unusual hobby, Toco answered a series of questions in a video posted last year, admitting he always “had a vague dream of becoming an animal” ever since he was a child. “When I fulfilled that dream, this is how it turned out,” he wrote in the clip, adding that he chose to become a collie due to the negligible size difference between the breed and humans. Zeppet, the company that manufactured Toco’s collie costume, says it took 40 days to create the furry fashion item, which cost a cool $2 million Yen (USD $14,161). “Modeled after a collie dog, it reproduces the appearance of a real dog walking on four legs,” the company’s spokesperson told news.com.au. Despite garnering online fame with his puppy pursuit, Toco conceals his unusual proclivities from most of his friends and family. “I rarely tell my friends because I am afraid they will think I am weird,’ he said in a separate interview with the Mirror. “My friends and family seemed very surprised to learn I became an animal.” Meanwhile, the Japanese man said last year that most of his colleagues are also unaware that he dresses as a dog outside of work. “I don’t want my hobbies to be known, especially by the people I work with,” he told the Daily Mail. “They think it’s weird that I want to be a dog. For the same reason why I can’t show my real face.” His hyperrealistic dog costume The $22,000 costume created by Zeppet. He recently embarked on his first public walk. Toco performs tricks in exchange for treats. Toco sits with a sign that reads “I’m human.”
  5. His Stella Artois commercial with Matt Damon, Ludacris, & Rosario Dawson is annoying.
  6. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind about this post is: Any relation to Sophia Petrillo?
  7. A Washington D.C. resident is selling a giant wall he inherited from his father for $50,000 — in a petty move to annoy his neighbor. Allen Berger told the Washington Post that his father initially bought the wall as a joke — so he could say he owned property in Georgetown. Berger revealed that he decided to put the brick facade on the market after getting into a disagreement with his neighbor, Daniela Walls. Walls, her surname being ironic, owns the interior 12 inches of the wall. Berger owns the exterior 12 inches on the south side of her house, which she purchased back in 2019. She knew at the time that Berger owned part of the wall of her home. But things took a turn in 2020 when Walls noticed water leaking into her house. She discovered the beams in the part of the wall that Berger owns were wet and therefore threatening the structure of her home, she told the Washington Post. Before Walls offered to buy the wall from Berger, she complained to the DC Department of Buildings (DOB). They fined Berger twice in connection to “improper upkeep” of his property — including chipping paint and rotting materials — for a total of $1,661 in November. Berger denied the claims and is scheduled to go before an Office of Administrative Hearings administrative law judge in September, according to the outlet. Walls then offered to buy the wall from Berger through her attorney, Eric Rome, for its tax-assessed value of $600. This didn’t exactly sit well with Berger, revealing that Walls had “blindsided him” with her actions involving the DOB. “That’s when I came up with $50,000, without any research, without any great thought,” he said. “For better or for worse.” In response, Walls told the Washington Post that Berger’s claims were “childish” and she didn’t want her house to fall down as a result of the structural damage. “Everybody is working to resolve this, not because they have a vendetta against Allen,” she said. “It’s because they want to solve a problem.” Walls says she has no intention of paying $50,000 for the wall because then she would have to spend tens of thousands on repairs and upkeep as a result of its deterioration. “Nobody is going to give you a mortgage for a wall,” she told the outlet. But it looks like Walls underestimated the interest in the DC real estate market. Berger listed the wall, with the address 30th St NW, with Robert Morris of Keller Williams. Morris, who grew up in DC for the last 60 years, told The New York Post on Wednesday that they received a serious offer from a young woman who wanted to buy the wall. “We’re trying to do everything we can to make sure she gets it,” he told The Post, adding that he is unsure what she wants to do with it. Morris previously told the Washington Post, that they had 12 other offers on the wall but that 11 backed out after being told that any murals or advertisements on the wall would have to get approval from the Old Georgetown Board. The remaining offer dropped out after seeing it in person. “This has absolutely been one of the most interesting listings I’ve ever had,” Morris added.

  9. You missed the most salacious part of the story:
  10. The in-Cuomo-ble hulk Shirtless Chris Cuomo flaunts insanely buff bod in fishing thirst trap The fired CNN anchor posed shirtless to show off his big fish — but fans weren’t concerned with his fresh catch.

  12. The Fed’s Preferred Inflation Metric Falls Again, to 4.1% Annual RateThe Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge climbed at a 4.1% annual pace in June, marking a sizable step down from May’s 4.6% annual rate and bringing price growth to its slowest pace in nearly two years. The core personal consumption expenditures price index rose 0.2% in June from a month earlier, the Commerce Department reported on Friday, compared with a 0.3% climb in May. Economists had expected prices to rise 0.2% in June from May and fall to a 4.2% rate. Read in Barron's: https://apple.news/AZmiDDH2gRxanGiLyEUzGQw

  17. Me & my big mouth! Another positive day for the Dow would've tied its record, set in 1897 However, the market plummeted in the afternoon.
  18. Shohei must be happy. He threw a one hit shutout against Detroit today for his 1st career CG. He went 0-5 in that game, but has hit his major league leading 37th in the 2nd game, which us still in the third inning, so he'll probably get to 40 by the 7th inning stretch.
  19. yeah, but you guys have to pay
  20. The Angels are going for it. Ohtani's off the market. They've acquired Giolito, plus Lopez for their bullpen. They've inquired about Candelario.
  21. 'Creepy' abandoned Chinese mansion development reclaimed by farmers In China’s northeast, in the hills surrounding the city of Shenyang, a project called the State Guest Mansions still sits half-finished, although its developer long ago threw in the towel on the venture. Now, more than a decade since 2012 when, just two years after breaking ground, the Chinese real estate behemoth Greenland Group abandoned the 260 villas it once planned to build on the plot, nature, cows and farmers are taking back the land. Feral dogs and cattle roam between the European-style chateaus and farmers plow property once intended to be lush lawns. The situation is not unique to the State Guest Mansions — in fact, it is so common there’s a Chinese phrase for similar would-be luxe residences which have instead become eyesores: “Rotten-tail” homes. Indeed, according to one officially affiliated Shanghai research group, under 4% of housing projects across China, or the equivalent of 2.5 billion square feet of real estate, have been left half-built as of this past June. Cattle now freely roam the property. very aMOOsing! A model at a deserted housing sales building.
