There aren’t very many people in the world who despise Disney, but there is also a pretty big gap between the casual Disney fan and the giant Disney lover, don’t you think? Even so, if you’re someone who enjoys Disney a little or a lot, these 13 memes will make you do something between smile...

There’s a trend going around on Twitter where people imagine where different people, or groups of people, would take you after they say “I know a spot…” As these types of things go, this one is pretty funny (and strangely good at calling large groups of people out, too). If you want to know what...

Sometimes a trend catches on in the Twitterverse and everyone wishes it would go away. It’s not the funny, or it’s annoying, or it just won’t stop. If you ask me (and tons of other people) the recent spate of tweets detailing different people who “know a spot” and where they take you is pretty...

If there’s one thing it seems like Disney (and Pixar) love to do with their films, it’s to make the adults in the room cry (and the kids wonder wtf is going on). From Bambi to Up and too many in between to name, who among us hasn’t broken down in the fact of animated beauty and loss?...

For those of us who aren’t part of the queer community, but who hope to be the best allies to those who are, some terminology can be confusing or evasive. And while you’re probably comfortable with the meanings of terms like homosexual, bi or pansexual, and asexual (among others), you may not be as familiar...

Most of the time when you watch a game show the contestants have been well-vetted and do far better at achieving their goals than you ever would, sitting at home on your couch. There are sometimes, though, when you sit watching, stunned, at the idiocy on your television screen. If you love taking those moments...

We all experience a brain fart now and again – when you open your mouth, sure your mind will be there for you the way it always is, and suddenly…it’s not. But while you can definitely understand exactly what happened to these 14 game show contestants, you’re still going to cringe at the really, really...

Pretty much everyone who loves history and a sick beat and fun things in general is geeking out over Hamilton right now. Whether you’re discovering it for the first time on Disney+ or coming back to it like an old friend, it’s delightful, and honestly, none of us can get enough. If you’re out there reading everything...

There are many things that have come to light, or have gotten much needed attention, during the recent movement for social justice. One of those things is just how poor our education is in America when it comes to the plight and contributions of Black people throughout history. If a Black person contributed to history...

Here’s a protip from someone who has been on Twitter pretty much since its inception (and who is old enough to remember the introduction of MySpace (yikes!) – always take a moment to vet who you’re speaking with online before you let loose. You’ll thank me when you don’t turn out to be the person...

You may never need to know how to find food, build a shelter, create clean water, or complete any other survival tasks to save your own life…don’t you think it’s better to have an idea how to do it, just in case? I mean, when it comes to the whole be prepared thing, I think...

Now that J.K. Rowling has alienated a good number of her readers because of her stance on feminism and how it relates to the rights of trans women, we don’t have to pretend that there’s nothing bad about Hogwarts or the rest of the world she created anymore. If we imagine it to be a...

If you’ve had a dog, you’ve probably wondered what the answer is to this question. Butts are pretty gross, after all. That’s where poop comes out, but then again…dogs love poop. All kinds of poop, but from what I can tell, mostly cat poop. https://www.instagram.com/p/BHXaADYAl1a/ So, why is this a pooch’s preferred method of greeting?...

Gone are the days when celebrities or well-known artists are inaccessible by the masses, or when the people who hire or employ or admit you to school never really know what you’re like in your private life. With social media, most of us have to assume that anything we say could come back to bite...

No one wants to think that they’ll be caught in a situation that turns out to be life or death, but the truth is, some of us will – and we won’t be prepared. It’s definitely better to have your ducks in a row, or to have thought through how to handle something, and never...
