House for sale in Missouri is a massive time capsule on the inside. Check it out
'Here's your chance to own a true one-of-a-kind home in the desirable Prairie Heights subdivision,' the listing on Zillow describes. 'This stunning all-brick, 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom estate sits on an expansive double lot and offers over 6,500 sq. ft. of living space — a perfect blend of retro charm and modern opportunity.'
And retro it is. Just take a peek at the interior.
The home — built in 1974 — has mustard yellow walls, dark wood paneling, arched windows, interior sliding glass doors into other rooms, A LOT of cabinets, an indoor swimming pool with carpeting surrounding it, red carpeting on the stairs, maybe a ghost or nine, SHAG CARPETING, and so much more.
The photos even show renderings on what it would look like if an extra from 'That 70's Show' put their furniture inside.
'Built on a slab -- peace of mind with no basement surprises. Whether you're looking to preserve its mid-century style or transform it into a modern masterpiece, this property is being sold AS-IS at an unbeatable value,' the listing says.
The house was even featured on Zillow Gone Wild, a Facebook page that highlights unique homes listed all over the country. And people… well, people thought it was, in a word, 'neato.'
Mostly.
'I can smell the musty carpet and dusty linoleum,' one person observed.
'Just needs a little repair and restoration and this instantly becomes the ideal property for any buyer looking to unleash their inner serial killer of yesteryear,' someone joked.
'I can smell this house. It's smells of potpourri, eucalyptus and Winston's,' another said.
'I love retro so I'd move in a heartbeat. I'd be removing the carpet from the bathrooms pretty quick though,' someone commented.
Bolivar is about a 135-mile drive southeast from Kansas City.

Baseless posts of stranded whales 'warning about Russian earthquake' spread online
Social media users have shared an old video of beached belugas falsely claiming they foreshadowed the massive earthquake that rattled Russia's sparsely populated Far East on July 30. The clip first circulated in news reports in August 2023, when the animals were stranded in Russia's far eastern Kamchatka region. "The animals have warned us -- but we couldn't understand," reads part of the Hindi-language post shared on X on the day. "Yesterday, five beluga whales washed ashore in Russia's Kamchatka, which was the epicentre of today's record-breaking 8.8 magnitude earthquake. Nature always knows first," it added. The post surfaced as an 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Russia's far-eastern Kamchatka region (archived link). Storm surges of up to four metres (12 feet) were predicted for some parts of the Pacific with more than a dozen nations -- from Japan to the United States to Ecuador -- evacuating citizens from coastal regions. The warnings were later lifted, allowing millions of temporary evacuees to return home, including in Kamchatka. The only reported fatality was a woman killed when her car fell off a cliff in Japan as she tried to escape, local media reported. The video was shared with similar claims on X and Facebook. A Google reverse image search using keyframes led to a longer, horizontally flipped version of the video uploaded to YouTube on August 13, 2023, with a title saying it shows residents of Kamchatka saving a family of belugas (archived link). The video contains superimposed text that refers to the Russian outlet Kamchatka Inform, which reported on August 13, 2023 that a family of beluga whales -- four adults and one calf -- were stranded at the mouth of the Tigil River during a strong low tide (archived here). The reports said all of them survived and managed to return to the sea on their own during high tide. While there are anecdotes of bizarre animal behaviour before seismic activities, there is no mechanism that can scientifically explain the connection, according to the United States Geological Survey (archived here). AFP has also debunked other false claims related to the Russian earthquake here.

‘Timid' dog found wandering aimlessly on Indiana road. Then came transformation
A dog in Indiana is now ready for a brand-new life to go along with her newly rebranded personality after spending months shaking in her small corner of the world. And yes, she has a super cute name to go with her squishable and boopable face. 'Just before Thanksgiving, a scared and timid pup was found wandering near 126th & Lantern Rd, unsure of where she belonged. We named her Betty Moo, and while her journey started in fear, it's blossomed into something beautiful,' the Humane Society for Hamilton County in Fishers said in an Aug. 5 Facebook post. 'At first, Betty Moo preferred to stay in the background, too shy to let her personality shine. But once she moved into a cozy office space (and later into foster), her walls started to come down. Now, she's a playful, goofy girl who turns every toy, zoomie session, and cuddle into a celebration of life.' According to her pet profile, Betty Moo has a love of toys and zoomies — especially in the yard. While her manners could use some tweaking, she's a quick learner. Here are some things a potential new owner should know about the 2-year-old mixed breed pitbull: Cats? No thank you. She needs a feline-free environmentKids are OK, at least 8 years old and aboveMaybe another dog in the house? Needs to meet them first 'She's a kind-hearted, fun-loving girl who just needs someone to believe in her as much as we do. After all she's been through, she's ready to know what forever feels like,' the shelter said. For more information, check out the shelter's website. Fishers is about a 20-mile drive northeast from downtown Indianapolis.
