No one likes to be told what to do, and if you know anything about birds, you probably know this goes double for our feathered friends. Australian Isaac Sherring-Tito saw this truth on full display as he walked down a Katoomba street one day, only to be accosted by pieces of a spiky, anti-bird system...

No one likes to get a ticket, but having to fork over some hard-earned cash might be less painful if you knew for sure those funds would be used to help kids and teachers in need. Enter Las Vegas, who will remove the middle man and just allow you to donate school supplies instead of...

I’m still trying to wrap my head around a world where “social media influencer” is like, a job. It is, unfortunately. And apparently finding the perfect background is an important part of being the best in your field. Which is why so many influencers have taken a liking to the picturesque lake in the city...

Some movies make you so glad you turned them on and spent your valuable time watching them. Others make you wish you’d turned them off the moment you realized they had no redeeming value. Others? You don’t know how to feel, because you’re too busy asking yourself wtf you just watched. If that’s something you’d...

Movies, like all forms of art, have a way of getting under our skin and into our heads; sometimes they stay with us in ways that make us feel warm and fuzzy, and other times in ways we wish we could forget. These 13+ people had experiences in the latter category – and if one...

A lot of times, whether or not a television show runs one season, or five, or twenty doesn’t necessarily have to do with the quality of the program. Sometimes the audience just doesn’t find the show until it’s already too late. For these 20 shows, that definitely rings true. They’ve got legions of devoted fans,...

You buy food for your dog because you believe that you’re taking care of one of their most basic needs in the best way possible, but what if the bag you pick up at the store is could end up shortening your pup’s lifespan? I don’t know about you, but I would be pretty upset....

It’s summer! Your kids are thrilled to be out of school or daycare, to not have to put on a coat and hat every time they leave the house, and, yes, to spend all of the time possible in the swimming pool, lake, ocean, or other body of water. And even though you also probably...

It’s that time of year again – you’re ready to break out the bbq grill, slap on some burgers, steaks, brats, ribs, or all of the above, only to open up the lid and find that whoever put it away last winter didn’t clean off the grime. It certainly wasn’t you. You would never, I...

In America, people are allowed to express their opinions in public, regardless of how sane, popular, or offensive said opinions may be. However, other people are also allowed to respond to your opinions with their own thoughts. That’s free speech right there. Now, assault is a crime and you run the risk of charges being...

If you have kids, there’s a 100% chance they will, at some point, ask you why the sky is blue. If you don’t have kids, hey. There’s a good chance you asked this question at some point, and even if someone gave you the correct answer, you’ve probably forgotten what it was. And sure, you...

Men and women who breed, rear, and sell livestock for a living know that there’s nothing more important than protecting their investment. Cattle ranches exist largely in states where winter comes early and stays well into the spring, meaning that many calves will be born while there’s still snow on the ground and temperatures are...

There are faceless figures popping up on the streets of cities around world. Staged in provocative poses, the lifelike sculptures are meant to challenge people to question their reality. https://www.instagram.com/p/BvcC375lULV/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BeY_HBUHecO/ The reactions he gets run the gamut, and artist Mark Jenkins loves the conversation his “urban theater” starts with people everywhere his installations go....

Climate change is affecting society in all kinds of unexpected ways, and one of them is that all of the snow days that are scheduled into a school year are going unused. When I was a kid (forgive me), we used 3-4 or more snow days a year, but in the past 5 years here...
