RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) â A new flyover bridge in southeast Raleigh is getting some attention for all of the wrong reasons.
A concerned driver believes the wall holding up the new flyover bridge traveling from Interstate 40 east under it at Interstate 440 west is slightly leaning. CBS 17 took those concerns to the North Carolina Department of Transportation to get answers.
David Morris said he was "stunned" to see a giant vessel seemingly suspended over the surface of the sea. It's a truly "superior mirage."

Optical illusions can be quite mind-bending and fun to look at. That’s exactly what this Reddit user from Bavaria, Germany, i spin bubbles, captured while photographing his cat. In the photo, it looks like his cat has lost its head in a basket. The picture has gathered up over 10k upvotes and many comments are quite amusing, while others are just confused and wondering how this happened.
Apparently, the secret is that there is not one, but two cats in the photo: one named Koda, lying in the basket, and the other named Lilly, turned away. We talked with the owner and he told us more about the cats and their story.

Itâs MLK Day but most of the news is about a Second Civil War, a reality TV version where grown men join armed gangs in the rural hood and call themselves militias and Boogaloos like 21st century KKK, then âliberateâ the Capitol and take selfies in front of actual heroes.
Everyone needs some fantasy to hide the inconsistencies in the real world and keep their identity intact. But maybe we would all be better off loosening up during this American identity crisis.
What version of freedom was the Capitol mob thinking about? Isnât there a social contract between the people and government that says we negotiate our freedoms and restrictions through a democratic process? Or maybe they believe that the democratic process was subverted by a cabal of rich liberals, in which case we should figure out why intelligent people believe in conspiracies.
