For me, it was the day something happened to my back. I couldn’t move, couldn’t rock my baby to sleep, and I had zero idea of what I had done to make it happen. These 15 people have some similar moments, and boy, do they make me feel the slightest bit better. #15. I could...

It is a well-known fact that bird people are not like dog people or cat people. You can decide for yourself whether that is a good thing or a bad thing, but they’re…different. That said, if all birds were as hilariously adorable as these 20, I might consider becoming one myself. #20. I would love...

Sure, piranhas look scary with all of those sharp teeth. Sure, Hollywood wants to paint them as man-eating horrors that’ll turn a river red with blood within seconds. It turns out, though, that they’re not the villains we’ve tried to cast them as all of these years – and to blame we have none other...

You might remember the beluga whale secret agent – he showed up in the news a bit ago after Norwegian fishermen encountered him and removed his harness, only to find it had a Russian stamp on the inside. Spy theories abounded…but it seemed just as likely that the animal had been raised and trained for...

You know that feeling when you get a new haircut and style and you walk out of the salon feeling 10 years younger and 20 pounds lighter and ready to take on the world? Well, I don’t know whether or not dogs have a similar experience, but looking their best certainly can’t hurt when it...

I can’t really say that I hope to have to put any of this information to use at some point in my life, but the details of these 15 murder attempts are crazy and true – and, since they have happy endings, they make for interesting reading! #15. Nosey neighbors. I always used to hate...

If you came here thinking there would be a simple answer to a simple question, you were not correct – there’s a lot that goes into coming up with a response, starting with the definition of dangerous. In a now-infamous paper published in 2010, 16 parameters of harm were considered when classifying the harmfulness of...

With restrictive abortion bans or “heartbeat laws” sweeping the country, people are talking about abortion in ways they haven’t since the passage of Roe v. Wade, or at least since 1992’s Planned Parenthood v. Casey supreme court decision. It’s so easy to believe that we live in a bubble – that the decisions people make...

There are few celebrity couples as adored these days as Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas – they’re young, they’re hip, and they’re both at the top of their games. And after someone mentioned that Joe’s brother Nick, dressed up for a MET gala, kinda sorta resembled Game of Thrones villain Littlefinger – well, their responses...

I don’t know about you, but I am not a fan of wasps. I’m not a fan of anything that possesses a stinger and the ability to hurt me at its discretion (understatement), but I have come to terms with the fact that bees are both essential and make delicious honey, so they get a...

There are some celebs that can be a bit disappointing offscreen (and more who work hard to cultivate a mysterious persona), and then there are those whose personalities are so big and bright they can’t help but shine pretty much always. Emilia Clarke is definitely the latter. You probably already love her; whether you’re into...

“On or about May 25, 2977, you fired a proton torpedo at a design flaw in the industrial celestial object, leading to its complete destruction and the deaths of most crew members.” Heads up, Star Wars fans – your favorite boy-who-could is in big trouble with the Pittsburgh, PA, legal system. The Jedi was charged...

I mean, if you haven’t seen Avengers: Endgame, and you’re an Avengers/Marvel fan…what are you even doing with your life? Answer: you have two kids under two and a rush of deadlines (that’s me). If you have seen the film, though, and you’re looking for funnies and community and shared lol’s, well, these 15 #spoilerwithoutcontext tweets...

Jimmy Kimmel and other late night hosts are famous for exposing the general uneducated stupidity of human beings by asking random questions to strangers on the street. That said, his most recent foray into public with the question “should Homo Sapiens be saved?” might take the cake. Because y’all. There are a lot of people...

If nothing else, this post will make you feel a lot less alone – like, if you think crazy things in the shower, there’s a 1000% chance that other people do, too. Because I scrolled through these and nodded my head to preeeeettttty much every single one. #17. Just get in already. #16. Eardrums beware....
