A surprising number of neurodivergent adults have lived in a near-constant state of low-grade existential overwhelm since childhood without ever realising that other people do not experience life this way.
The Rolling Stones qui reprennent la chanson d’Amy Winehouse, c’est comme boire un verre d’un excellent pinard, ça se savoure et réchauffe les coeurs.

A rare bit of bit of light relief from Britain’s foreign office. What silly Brits have asked the embassy to help them with abroad:
Finding somewhere to get blonde highlights in Jordan, seeking a refund for a bad meal and a request to help with the temperature of the hotel shower
Millie Bobby Brown revealed she got food shamed on the Stranger Things set for eating something totally normal in England.
Millie: “They’d be like, ‘mate, what the fuck are you eating?’… it’s like you live in the 1800s.”
Millie: “I would hide in a corner because they’d be like, ‘what is that?’
And I was just like, it’s a jacket potato with beans and cheese. It’s nothing.”
She said it’s a completely different story filming in England.
Millie: “Everybody’s like having jacket potato.”
I kid you NOT. Not trying to be biased but this is like the best LE doll in like a LONG time. Her outfit is so stunning, face card, and she has the best nylon I’ve ever felt on a doll.
This is so much better when you realize Slash is only on stage because Gosling tried to put up multiple unrealistic hurdles for the performance and they flew Slash in from Thailand the night before to make this happen.
Nothing tops the feeling of watching this live as it went out on Pebble Mill. I saw this performance from Paul Shane and knew I was witnessing something very special. It must have been how people felt when they watched the Apollo moon landing live on television.
Arnold Schwarzenegger says Stallone's paintings sell for several hundred thousand dollars, and reveals how Stallone taught him to paint bolder
Host: “What do you admire about him?”
Stallone: “Oh, stop. I do everything little. Like this, you know, and I make fine lines and make everything very accurate.”
Arnold: “He says, 'Arnold, you got to be more daring. Got to open up a little bit.' So I go up to his house and he has this big paintbrush with 15 kind of different colors. Goes in there like this and he starts smacking it down on the canvas.”
Arnold: “And I said to myself, 'Can you believe the balls this guy has? He just makes a commitment with all this paint.' And then all of a sudden in no time he creates this really colorful unbelievable kind of modern type of a painting.”
Arnold: “These big paintings go like sometimes for several hundred thousand dollars.”
half the fun of cat ownership is the random scavenger hunts, like, where is my small friend sleeping today? are you in the laundry basket? are you under the bed? have you curled up behind the shelf or on top of a cupboard or crept into a shopping bag? have you discovered a secret portal to another dimension and gone to have adventures with a tiny mechanical dragon? where are you, cat??
Like serious , how we went from this to printed on fabric , plastic jewelry, no beading no embroidery, no gemstone on collector barbies these days ? These people really sabotaged the Barbie brand
Made this mistake of skimming through some "audience reviews" on RT today, and I'm not surprised to see folks claiming that they're forcing "diversity" into the series, because these same viewers love to remain ignorant of actual history.
There's a reason why, in my review, I pointedly address the fact that the show's Black doctor, Dr. George Tann, was in fact a very REAL person who saved the Ingalls' lives and is the sole reason we even have this story to begin with. Otherwise, they would've been wiped out by malaria. Also, expanding on the experiences of the Osage Nation (a very real aspect of the Ingalls living on stolen land in a very contentious period of history for indigenous peoples) just makes sense. These are all real, authentic, and true aspects of the American frontier experience. Just because you love whitewashed shoot 'em up westerns does not make you knowledgeable about the era at all.
Just reread the Odyssey and even though it is 2,700 years old, it's still very much a modern story. A guy goes on a work trip and it takes literal necromancy in the actual underworld before he'll admit he's lost, gets waylaid by hot immortal women, blames the ocean, comes home and murders everyone who hit on his wife. Men have not changed. Bless them.
My sister's hamster escaped and we thought it died until we found it SIX MONTHS LATER living in the walls absolutely thriving. We only discovered him because my dad was convinced we had a poltergeist since he kept hearing scratching and finding his hidden candy stash empty. Dad set up a camera to catch the "ghost" and instead caught Butterscotch, this hamster, squeezing through a hole, stealing a Snickers, and disappearing. We tore open the wall and found a full hamster paradise. He'd stolen socks for bedding, had a stash of probably 50 nuts and candies, and somehow found water from a leaky pipe. He'd GAINED weight. This hamster lived better in our walls than he did in his cage. We tried to put him back in the cage and he looked legitimately depressed, so now Butterscotch free-roams the house and my dad leaves out "tribute" snacks. The hamster runs this house now. We are his subjects.
