I literally think of this every time a plastic bag breaks.

The irony of growing up in the "recycle, reduce, reuse" era is getting old and realizing how much is now designed so I CAN'T reuse it.

Want a stout coffee can for your old oil? 90% of them are made from plastic and the ones that aren't are made of scrappy thin aluminum.

I have coffee cans in my garage older than I am that are still functioning perfectly!

I swear the entire purpose of that movement was to brainwash us away from perfectly good reusable containers for the convenience of the manufacturers - no more cleaning and sanitizing glass bottles.

ohh. you actually do have to romanticize your life and hang out with your friends and fall in love and go outside and eat good food and do the little things that make you happy because if you think too long about things that you can’t control it
will kill you

If ants could speak, the tunnels of some colonies would echo with cries of, “The queen is dead, long live the queen!”

Utterly devoted to their matriarchs, these social insects sometimes go through regime change, when a usurper infiltrates an established ant colony, kills the host queen, and persuades the resident workers to serve her instead.

But as scientists report, some of these so-called parasitic queens employ an even more devious strategy, one that seems lifted straight from Greek tragedy: manipulating worker ants into killing their own queen, who is, biologically speaking, also their mother.

Few movies were more important to me growing up than Stand By Me. My dad showed it to me, and it's just one of those untouchably perfect films about the joys and anguish of that crucial moment right before you're about to become the person you end up being. I'll never get over it

The NY Post knows that a visual like this can create a false and harmful narrative. They know people will see a picture of a Black man above a picture of the suspect and assume he’s the shooter. He’s NOT. Joseph Oduro was the instructor and he’s a survivor.

If you watch a video of someone trying to drive through an intersection while kids are crossing the street, and your reaction is "we already have stuff to warn drivers," I'm not sure how to help you.

Crossing guards exist because so many people are willing to commit life-threatening antisocial behavior with their cars.
