If there's one thing health and fitness people will do, it's talk about gut health. I understand that it's important for your large and small intestines to function regularly, but I wish there were other ways to talk about it. Something about the word “gut” rubs me the wrong way. It hits my ear the same way “moist” does for so many others. I know it's supposed to be a sanitised way to describe your bowel movements, but I feel like

Whoever said dogs were "Man's Best Friend" forgot to include penguins, raccoons , salmon, and all animals in the animal kingdom. Animals are the light of our lives. They deserve parades and non-toxic cakes celebrating their existence. Disney's Animal Kingdom is just that; a theme park devoted to celebrating animals 365 days a year. They say it's not a zoo, but it's totally a zoo. Animal Kingdom is 33% depictions of wildlife in Asia and Africa, 33% Pandora the World of Avatar, and 33% DInoland U…

If fast food is so bad for you, then why does it feel so good? Popeyes and Raising Canes are definitely guilty pleasures of mine, but they really shouldn't be! After all, any kind of unhealthy food is fine in moderation. People freaking out about the dangers of fast food makes me think about the damage the movie Supersize Me did to our collective critical thinking skills. Morgan Spurlock (yes, I know his name) really thought it was a hot take that eating at McDonalds every day for a month would…

Nothing says “relatable” like showing off your billion dollar home and appliances that only 1% of the world can afford!…

Landlords : you can't live with them and I wish we could live without them, but most of us can't. I'm lucky that I haven't had any horrible landlord experiences yet, but I'm sure one is on the horizon. From the horror stories I've heard, I'm confident that at least 50% of landlords are fully incompetent at their jobs, and that honestly sounds like a generous estimate. In the tradition of horrible landlord stories, Buzzfeed writer Tim Unkenholz shared a painfully hilarious exchange he had with h…

This week, ABC released promotional photos for their new version of Beauty and the Beast starring HER, and I could not be more excited. The special's cast looks so good that it might override how much I hate the Broadway version of Beauty and the Beast . Before you townsfolk get out your pitchforks and form a mob over my bad take, let me explain. As a former theatre kid , I saw more high school productions of Beauty and the Beast, the musical, than anyone should legally be allowed to be subject…

I used to love weddings. And I mean, in theory, I still do. But they've gotten completely out of hand. I used to think the events were a celebration of love. An opportunity to get loved ones into the same room, lubricate them with alcohol, and let the games (and fun) begin. Nowadays, I'm not so sure.
