It's been another busy week on our dying planet Earth. And we've been watching the madness unfold on Twitter. There have been loads of posts, both tasteful and tasteless about September 11th. We're still grappling with the hubbub that has followed the death of Queen Elizabeth II , and those tweets probably won't be stopping until well after her Monday funeral. But more enjoyable than users reporting about current events are the fun tweets that poke fun at the current events, and the tweets that…

Margarita in Gatorade is no joke... But these memes are!

OMW to Blockbuster

Nothing like memes to take celebrities down a peg.

I never thought it would happen to me. As a child I was taught to hate cats. My mom had some weird grudge, probably because she grew up with small dachsunds who could definitely die at the paws of even the prissiest house-dwelling feline. One day, however, she found a black cat in the backyard. She named her “Spooky Boo,” and was very obviously developing a fondness for the creature. Eventually, she discovered that the cat had five, maybe six kittens in our compost box. A smelly but warm and co…

Can you refuse being someone's MOH?

As I scroll near-mindlessly through my Instagram feed, there's an emptiness that comes along with the visual proof that my peers and I are growing old. Every night I sit here on my Ikea couch, fake-watching TV, trying to pretend that this is “me time” and “ self-care ” when I'm really just wasting away while recovering from my demanding daily duties. The banality of my existence feeds both my depression and anxiety, but I'm too damn tired to do something that is actually gratifying with my time…

If you're on the hunt for easy and clever humor, we have to recommend the bird app. Twitter is a sort of intensely productive joke factory, and one that could probably benefit from its users taking a day off or two. It's true that some of the time it churns out some incredibly annoying content that we try to avoid, but it's usually possible to find some clever jokes, hot takes, and unexpectedly astute shower thoughts at any point while doomscrolling through the app. Globally, over 206 million p…

It's time to BeReal. Caring for p lants makes for a pretty good coping mechanism. Sure, it's gratifying to keep a thing, anything alive, but there are selfish reasons for flexing our green thumbs, too. After a couple rough years of social distancing and spending most of our time at home, many of us likely developed new hobbies (read: addictions) while twiddling our thumbs at home. For some people, that hobby was baking one million loaves of bread and gaining 10 pandemic pounds. For many of us,…

Having fun on the internet seems easy, but it's actually more complicated than you'd think. Boredom has a way of removing creative faculties that help you decide on something interesting to research, or a fun game to play. Then there's the fact that the internet is far from consistent in its content offerings. Take Twitter, for example. The website was created to allow people to share short messages with groups of friends or specific networks - something similar to a group text. The site has de…
