Anyone who has ever been married knows that there are some days when it can feel impossible to keep going. When you feel like throwing in the towel, walking away, would be such a simple and elegant solution that you really, truly think about taking it. Caring for another person day in, day out, is...

We’re all doing the best we can with technology these days, and it’s been harder for some of us than others. The older a person is, the more set they’ve been in their ways, the tougher time some have had with switching to online meetings and happy hours and consultations – and this attorney, who...

It should be no secret at this point that absolutely everything in the world has a light and dark side. Science is no exception; for every amazing advancement and breakthrough it has made, there is something that happened in the shadows. And yeah, sometimes those things are even worse than you could possibly imagine. Like...

I don’t know about you, but I love a good weekend jaunt to a brewery. The beer is interesting, there’s usually a nice patio, and if you live in a city known for brewing, there’s a good chance you can hop on a tour bus and hit up more than one – which makes it...

Everyone likes to think that they’ll be able to keep looking in the mirror and recognizing the person they see there – that, even as you get older, you retain something of your youthful self. It turns out there are some simple things you can do every day that will help you age slower, and...

There’s no question that our society has a bit of an obsession with helping people appear younger than they really are – I mean sure, age is just a number, but why not fool people into thinking yours is lower if you can? Impressions and appearances can matter, even if we wish they didn’t, and...

If you grew up in the United States, there’s almost no chance you don’t know who the Peanuts gang are. Even if you’re too young to realize that they were born as comics, and even though there isn’t an updated version on Nickelodeon, the holiday specials have pretty much ensured that Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the...

We don’t hear a ton on the news or in our daily lives about quantum computing per se, but the majority of the technological advances that have changed our lives over the past several decades are thanks to increased computer power. Now, physicists have confirmed the existence of a particle they’re calling an anyon, and...

It’s kind of sad when the things people dream up don’t come to be until after they’re gone, but I like to think that somehow they always knew it was a solid idea and it would eventually come to fruition. That’s been the case with several of Nikola Tesla’s inventions, of course, and now an...

Let me preface this article with the cold, hard fact that not everyone is lucky enough to have a good father or father figure, and still more people have sadly lost their father too early in life to ever watch them become a grandfather. If either of these are you, I see you and I...

Being a good neighbor when everyone is behaving and in their own, single-family homes can be tough enough, some days, and people who share walls or buildings or other close-type quarters have my eternal sympathies. This person lived next door to a commercial unit that was rented to the city, who in turn rented the...

Most of us want to be good friends, when we can. We want to do right by other people, and if we can make someone feel better instead of worse, we usually do. That said, throwing a test at school is a big ask, especially for those of us who care about our grades. These...

There’s an episode of Seinfeld when George kicks Jerry out of his car because he won’t stop teasing him, and later he says that’s something he “always wanted” to do. Maybe it’s a fantasy of some, but I think most of us like to think of ourselves as good friends, ready and willing to offer rides...

It’s a brave new world out there, and one of the things families, friends, and people in other sorts of relationships are navigating is how and when to share streaming service login information, and when and how to cut that off if there’s a falling out between parties. This poster is the friend of someone...

Listen. I know that everyone can be lazy, and that we all have those down days when we don’t feel like being a responsible adult and taking care of ourselves and our space. That said, across the board, it seems like while the women in relationships have days like these, the men in those relationships...
