Following someone on Instagram and liking their content is often the first step to a real-life flirtation and—I’m speaking off the cuff here—a real-life marriage.

During the 16 months Jessica Sunderland was incarcerated at the Riverside Correctional Facility in Suffolk County, New York, jail officials refused to give her the hormones she had been taking for two years.

Wisdom is a Laysan albatross and at least 68 years old, which makes her the oldest known bird in the world and also probably one of the most tired.

This was a really hard year, OK? Trying to make sense of all the bullshit is exhausting and damn near impossible, so it follows that increasingly, it seems we’d be searching for our answers in the stars.

Courtney Dauwalter is an incredible athlete. She has run 159.32 miles in 24 hours, breaking the American women’s world record, and won last year’s 238-mile Moab 240 race in 58 hours, beating the second place competitor, a man, by 10 hours.

Disney Channel released the trailer for its upcoming live action Kim Possible movie, and I can safely say that I—a 28-year-old woman—am thrilled.

Mason Ramsey, aka Walmart Yodeling Boy, aka King of the Bale, aka lil Hank Williams, aka my sweet, sweet summer child, is out with a new video this week for his cover of “White Christmas.” Twelve-year-old Ramsey, who is famous for a viral video in which he yodels “shedoome, shedooyoo” in Walmart and taps his feet, is…

Alleged sexual predator and confirmed bad person Julian Assange is apparently also a terrible roommate. The Ecuadorean embassy in London has housed the WikiLeaks founder since 2012 after he showed up claiming asylum as part of an effort to escape extradition to Sweden over pending sexual assault and rape charges which…

In a lawsuit filed Thursday, a woman identified as Jane Doe accused police of shackling her to the bed while she gave birth to her baby in a Bronx hospital. “They handcuffed her wrists to the bed and shackled her ankles,” The New York Times reports, and it was only an hour into her labor that they removed some of the…

Former Fox & Friends host and current haunted doll Heather Nauert is Donald Trump’s nominee to be America’s next ambassador to the United Nations. Nauert, 48, was named to replace outgoing ambassador Nikki Haley. How unlucky for us!

The Big Bang Theory is a CBS sitcom about a group of geeky adults that has run for 12 staggeringly long years. In that time period, it has attracted critical ire, many Emmys, and earned its stars million-dollar salaries. But now this show is dying and I, a pop culture critic with a heart made of onyx who has never…

Once upon a time, when I was a little baby unpaid editorial intern at Billboard I was asked to work their annual Women In Music event, which mostly meant helping white ladies at Ticketmaster find their seats and compiling a gift bag for Taylor Swift. It was held in the middle of the afternoon on a Wednesday in a teeny…

To put it bluntly, the Grammys did an awful job of recognizing the artistry of women at the 2018 show. Quelle surprise.

If you’re interesting in snagging the honored title of that guy in the ugly Christmas sweater as this year’s holiday parties, this Gold Box is for you. For just $21, men and women can embarrass themselves and everyone associated with them by purchasing one of these downright unattractive sweaters. Some are just tacky,…

There’s a very cute and slightly worrying picture making the rounds on the Internet of a seal that appears to have affixed a playful kitty cat tail to the wrong end of its body.
