La alcaldía Gustavo A. Madero busca hacer historia con la realización de una intervención artística monumental que busca romper el Récord Guinness del mural histórico más grande del mundo realizado con pincel “Futbol”.

Actualmente en proceso de conclusión, el mural ha sido desarrollado durante 90 días por artistas mexicanos y cubrirá más de 200 metros cuadrados sobre la avenida Centenario, uno de los senderos más importantes de la alcaldía, como parte de un proyecto integral de recuperación urbana y el marco del Mundial de Fútbol 2026.

La obra, que gira en torno a la temática del futbol, será evaluada oficialmente por Guinness World Records el próximo domingo 24 de mayo.

La iniciativa fue presentada esta mañana por el Guinness World Records Official Attempt, el Consejo Cultural Continua en Movimiento A.C., la Fundación Intercultural Libertad Creativa y Objetiva A.C., así como la Fundación Elena Poniatowska Amor A.C. –sn–

The Man Who Sued Everyone (Including Guinness): Inside Jonathan Lee Riches’ Legal Chaos

Dear Cherubs, Jonathan Lee Riches is what happens when a filing fee meets unlimited imagination and absolutely no intention of subtlety. Over the years, he became infamous for launching thousands of lawsuits from prison, targeting everyone from presidents to pop stars—and yes, even institutions like Guinness World Records.

THE MAN WHO SUED EVERYONE, INCLUDING REALITY
Riches’ reputation comes from an almost surreal volume of legal filings submitted while he was incarcerated in the United States. According to publicly documented court records and summaries, he filed thousands of civil complaints, many of which read less like legal arguments and more like chaotic crossovers between celebrity gossip and alternate history fan fiction.

Among his more widely reported targets were George W. Bush, Britney Spears, Michael Vick, Steve Jobs, and even abstract entities like the Eiffel Tower. At one point, he even attempted legal action involving Guinness World Records, reportedly in response to disputes around “most litigious person” style labels. Spoiler: the courts were not entertained.

As noted in reporting compiled by sources like Wikipedia and federal court summaries, these cases were consistently dismissed as frivolous, legally insufficient, or failing basic procedural requirements. Judges did not so much “consider” his claims as they did swiftly send them into judicial oblivion.

Low-key, the legal system treated his filings like someone spamming the “submit” button on reality itself.

WHEN COURTS STOPPED PLAYING ALONG
Eventually, the pattern became impossible to ignore. Courts across multiple jurisdictions began dismissing his cases en masse, often citing the Prison Litigation Reform Act rules designed to prevent abusive or repetitive filings. In simpler terms: the system basically said, “we are not doing this with you anymore.”

In some instances, courts reportedly imposed restrictions on his ability to file new lawsuits without permission. That’s the legal equivalent of being put on “internet probation,” but for courtrooms.

What makes Riches so widely discussed isn’t that he ever won landmark cases—he didn’t—but rather the sheer scale and creativity of his filings. It’s giving legal chaos energy with zero filters and maximum persistence.

According to commentary on thisclaimer.com, cases like his highlight how open court systems can be both powerful and vulnerable: they allow access to justice, but also occasionally become stages for absurdity when abused. It’s a reminder that procedure matters just as much as imagination.

Today, Riches remains a reference point in legal discussions about vexatious litigants—people who file so many baseless suits that courts must step in to protect the system itself. In internet terms, he basically achieved “ban speedrun any%,” but through federal court orders.

So while Guinness World Records may not be adding a “most chaotic litigant” category anytime soon, Jonathan Lee Riches already occupies a permanent niche in legal folklore: the man who sued basically everything except, ironically, common sense.

SWANSEA: Girls across the UK break World Record with giant friendship bracelet

Girls across the UK have come together to create what is believed to be the world’s longest friendship bracelet, in a landmark moment marking 150 years of Girls Friendly Society (GFS).

Made from more than 4,000 hand-braided segments, the bracelet was officially measured at a special celebration held at Dylan Thomas Community School, Swansea, on 22 April 2026. The final length of 1,362.41 metres surpasses the previous record of 852.19 metres.

The event brought together girls, volunteers, partners and supporters from across Wales and beyond. It marks the first time the full bracelet has been assembled in one place.

Each segment of the bracelet was made by a different person – girls in GFS groups, corporate volunteers, members of the public who wove around 50 metres at the Magpies Festival in York, and supporters as far afield as Cambodia. Together, they represent the friendships, confidence and sense of belonging that GFS has been building for a century and a half.

Heather Smith, Chief Executive of Girls Friendly Society, said:

“This bracelet is more than a measurement. It’s a powerful symbol of what girls can create when they feel supported and connected. Every section was made by someone who cares about the same thing we do: giving girls a safe space to belong.

“As we mark 150 years, this moment captures both where we’ve come from and where we’re going -and the thousands of girls whose lives are shaped by friendship, confidence and the knowledge that they matter.”

The initiative launched last summer, when GFS invited girls and supporters to create bracelet segments. Over 2,000 packs were ordered through the organisation’s fundraising platform, with GFS groups contributing hundreds of additional metres.

Girls Friendly Society currently supports around 600 girls across the UK. The bracelet project reflects both the reach of the organisation and the strength of the communities it serves.
