Yesterday, the long-awaited first Sunday of the football season commenced. To that I say, thank God, because summer sports don't hit the same. You've got baseball every day, which isn't as easy to get invested in. You don't have that one special day a week where your team plays: every day could be a great day in baseball, but you don't have the psychic powers to know which day that will be. In football, you have your weekly special day to watch the big game. No matter what happens, you know The…

Tumblr might seem like an outdated platform to the millennials who abandoned their blogs several years ago, but Tumblr still exists and it's thriving (even without your highly aesthetic sea foam-tinged vaporwave gifs). If you know where to look, there's plenty of gold to be mined from the depths of Tumblr . We've rounded up some of the best posts, funny comments, and shower thoughts for anyone who can't be bothered opening the site.

Queen Elizabeth II lived a long life. There's no denying that a ninety-six-year existence is impressive. A lot can be accomplished and experienced in that amount of time: marriage , parenthood, wars, imperialism, etc. But a ninety-six-year life also leads to a different sort of prolificness - the ability to be trending on Twitter for a week straight. Mentions of the deceased matriarch have been going strong since the news of her demise, and while not all of the memes, jokes, and tweets are tast…

Here we go again

We can't lie. Lately it feels like every day is a struggle. First of all, you have to wake up, and if that wasn't already harrowing enough, then you have to get out of bed. Once you've made it that far, it's time for those daily hygienic rituals that help others perceive you to be a functioning member of society. I don't know about you, but I'm not Patrick Bateman when it comes to my morning routine. I'm dragging my feet and using the drugstore branded lotion. Exercise ? Fat chance. The only ex…

Career advice can go wrong so quickly. On the one hand, there's your grandpa telling you to go to the office of your local Fortune 500 company, give the desk receptionist a firm handshake, and as for a job. On the other hand, LinkedIn influencers are infiltrating all corners of social media, giving inspirational speeches about how with a little bit of elbow grease, anyone has the potential to be mistreated by their boss. This case is a strange combination of the two; it's where boomer and influ…

When we talk about relationships, it feels like people are usually discussing ones of the romantic variety. But there are many other types of relationships. The relationship you have with your toilet, for example. Or your friendships, the people who are your blood family, or perhaps your chosen family. I, personally, have a relationship with my coworkers. It's usually positive. But we have our little ways of communicating with side-eyes, smiles, and sometimes the odd eye-roll that lets us know…

Naming kids is actually a huge responsibility

"The Lord's choice of fast-food."

The horror!

Good day, programmers . Today is Sunday, which hopefully means you're only looking at programming memes and not doing any actual programming today. After all, it's essential to have a healthy work-life balance. But I know as well as anyone that sometimes, work has to come before life. When you have something necessary and time-consuming to do, the workday is often not long enough. It's a sad reality, and we all find different ways to deal with it. Suppose you're reading this during the workweek…

Can you refuse being someone's MOH?

Seasoning

It's my firm belief that spiders are judged too harshly. The eight-legged creatures are straight-up maligned and misunderstood! While I can understand that people get the heebie-jeebies from the arachnids, can we just talk about how cool they are (when they aren't deadly)? First of all, spiders kill bugs we hate. Bugs that cause disease and discomfort, like mosquitos, and bugs that are just plain gross, like cockroaches and earwigs. They are our allies, y'all. Spiders are also freaky. If they w…

Voila

A rough way to live
