Not Like Us — Unfiltered Stories That Break the Script

Want stories that don’t follow the usual playbook? The "Not Like Us" tag gathers pieces that surprise, irritate, or make you sit up and rethink what you thought you knew. Here you’ll find dramatic sports finishes, political twists, weird cultural moments and straight-up human drama — all written so you can get the point fast.

Take sports: we cover buzzer-beaters and transfer sagas that change locker-room chemistry. Read about Tyrese Haliburton’s last-second shot in "Haliburton's Buzzer-Beater Lifts Pacers Over Thunder" or the messy summer around Alexander Isak in "Alexander Isak Transfer Saga Throws Newcastle United Into a Summer Dilemma." These aren’t routine match reports — they focus on what shifts momentum, money and moods.

Politics and public life show up here too. Stories like "Kenya Orders Color-Coded Waste Sorting in Households" and Junet Mohamed’s comments on Raila Odinga’s AU bid appear because they force a rethink about policy and priorities. You’ll see the clear stakes: what changes daily life, or how a single decision echoes across communities.

Culture and entertainment get the same treatment. From Patrice Evra’s raw moment with Sir Alex Ferguson to Nollywood buzz in "Kolawole Ajeyemi Applauds Toyin Abraham’s Alakada: Bad and Boujee," the tag highlights personal clashes and unexpected support. These pieces show human reactions — proud, awkward, funny or tense — and why they matter.

What you’ll find here

Short answer: stuff that breaks the routine. Expect:

- High-drama sports recaps and transfer breakdowns that explain why a club’s season could flip.
- Political moves and local policies that touch daily life, served with clear context.
- Entertainment moments and celebrity reactions that spark conversation.
- Hot takes that don’t fit neat categories — weird, bold, or unpolished.

Each post in this tag aims to give you the why, not just the what. Why was that goal huge? Why does that policy matter to your neighborhood? Why did that celebrity reaction go viral? You get quick context and clear takeaways so you can follow the story without needing a background degree.
