Concerned driver stops traffic to help a kid get up a snowbank on a busy street

Snow doesn’t stop school busses from running in northern states. Outside of a blizzard, the snow plows run early in the morning just in time for busses to collect little kids to take them to school. But while the roads may be cleared up and sidewalks shoveled, the discarded snow collects on the side of the road which creates an obstacle for people who need to get from the road to the sidewalk.

In a video uploaded to social media by Memezar, a school bus drops of two little boys right in front of a snowbank likely caused by snow plows. The older boy climbed up the snow bank just fine but the younger one was struggling and help from the other child just wasn’t doing the trick.

It didn’t seem as if the bus driver could see the child struggling or maybe assumed he would make it up the tiny snow mountain because the driver drove away. Taking away the only thing protecting the boy from traffic–the flashing stop sign.


A driver on the other side of the street could see the boy struggling and attempted to alert the bus driver but was unsuccessful. The bus drove away leaving the small child vulnerable as cars begin to speed by. But the quick-thinking concerned driver, blew his horn and put his own life at risk by using his own car to block traffic.

In no time the man scooped the boy up and placed him on the sidewalk next to the other child. Thanks to that kind stranger, the child left the situation uninjured and commenters can’t get enough of the driver’s actions.

“Thank you sir for taking time to help this boy. Bless you,” one person says.

“I would be livid about the bus leaving my child on a road that busy without waiting until they are safely off the road. That man is wonderful and caring. Thank you,” another commenter writes.

“Thank you for helping this Child. You have a kind heart,” someone says.

The entire video is a roller coaster of emotions from watching the boy struggle to seeing him helped to safety. You can watch the whole thing below.

Tate McRae Was Struck In The Face By A Fan’s Balled Up Socks During Her London Concert, Leaving The Singer Visibly Grossed Out

Uproxx cover star Tate McRae is basking in well-earned fame. With the release of her new album, Think Later, the musician is gaining a heap of new doting fans and odd admirers. On Friday, December 8, McRae learned how strange the public can be.

During her album launch party at Kingston Przym in London, McRae was hit by an object someone threw from the crowd. In a video captured by a concertgoer, when McRae begins to open her eyes following the closing note of her song “You Broke Me First,” an attendee hurls a balled-up pair of socks toward her. When McRae’s eyes fully opened, she’s struck squarely in the face, which left her looking visibly disgusted.

“What was that? Was that a sock,” shrieks McRae.

People online commended McRae for laughing the incident off. However, she was sure to take to her Instagram stories to reprimand the attacker politely. She posted a screengrab of someone writing, “Why’d you have to hit her up like that?!?!? You should know it isn’t normal.”

Although McRae wasn’t seriously injured, as was the case for Bebe Rexha, she clearly does not support the growing trend of throwing things at entertainers.

Why Is ‘Poor Things’ Rated R?

Poor Things Emma Stone
Searchlight Pictures

Emma Stone has a new movie out, and it’s her most daring yet. It’s called Poor Things, and in it she plays a young woman who’s brought back to life, Frankenstein-style. Unlike the titular character in Bride of Frankenstein, she doesn’t immediately freak out, leading to disaster. Instead she winds up roaming the planet, getting into all kinds of erotic roundelays.

So is this movie R-rated? You betcha. But why exactly? Per the film’s IMDb page, it features lots of nudity, mastubration, sex with multiple partners, and more things that wouldn’t pass muster were it even a PG-13.

Stone has earned some of the best reviews of her career for Poor Things, with critics praising how far is pushes the boundaries of good taste — especially in an age when most mainstream movies are powerfully sexless. The film’s director, Yorgos Lanthimos — who previously directed Stone in The Favouritespoke about that very issue at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year.

“It’s weird, isn’t it? Why is there no sex in movies?” Lanthimos asked. He said Stone had “no shame about her body, nudity, engaging in those scenes. And she understood that right away. The great thing about myself and Emma is that now we’ve completed four films together, so there’s a shorthand. We can communicate without having to explain everything or talk too much about things.”

Poor Things is currently in select theaters. It expands nationwide on December 25, and will no doubt make for some awkward Christmas Day family moviegoing adventures. You’ll have to wait a good long while for it to be streaming.

Mushy-Brained Trump Claims He Was Just Using ‘Sarcasm’ When He Couldn’t Identify Who Was Currently President

The right loves to harp on Joe Biden’s age and his alleged mental decline. They do so while ignoring someone who’s only a few years younger than him, and clearly much worse. In recent months Donald Trump has done things like mix up who’s currently president, claim Joe Biden wants to start “World War II,” and let slip that he’s “waging an all-out war on democracy.” But is his brain really turning into mush or is he just being funny? Trump is claiming the latter.

Per Mediaite, the former president went on a late night tear Friday, which included him addressing charges that his mind is going.

“I never confused Crooked Joe Biden with Barack Obama, except in the form of a sarcastic joke, which the Fake News knows and fully understands,” Trump posted on his rinky-dink Twitter clone. “Sarcasm is a very dangerous thing for me to use!!!”

What could have prompted this outburst? Perhaps it was Megyn Kelly, who recently co-moderated one of the GOP primary debates he skipped, telling Glenn Beck that he’s not doing so hot, gaffe-wise.

“This is what happens when you’re 77 years old!” Kelly said. Kelly said Trump has repeatedly confused Biden and Barack Obama. “Any of us could have a slip of the tongue, but it’s happening to him repeatedly.”

Even though Kelly admitted she’d take Trump over Biden “any day of the week,” that probably wasn’t enough for the big guy, who already despises her.

This isn’t the first time Trump felt compelled to assure supporters that his mind isn’t melting. The other week he laid out a wildly incoherent excuse for his repeatedly confusing Biden with Obama. In the meantime, he’s also been letting slip that he’d definitely be a “dictator” if re-elected, but only for one day, so no one need worry much.
