These days, going on the internet often feels like you're stuck in a machine specifically designed to make you have a bad time . The algorithm shows you content guaranteed to make you mad; sure enough, you read it, get angry, and post about it more, feeding into the monster. One would think that eventually, you'd have a bad enough time just to quit these hostile social media platforms altogether, but the anger they induce gets addicting. It is fun to be outraged, especially when you're outraged…

One of the greatest movies of the 20th century is about a man who magically turns into a dog. I'm not talking about The Shaggy Dog or its remake starring Tim Allen. No, I'm referring to the greatest hidden gem Disney+ has to offer, The Shaggy D.A. As the title so cleverly suggests, it is a movie about a man who is running for District Attorney and can't stop turning into a big white fluffy dog . The best part of this movie is its action sequences. If you haven't seen the viral clip where a man…

Dogs are an S-tier pet if there ever was one. They are called man's best friend for a reason; doggos are uncritical, love you unconditionally, and are generally a blast to be around. Dogs might not be for everyone, but if you're an extrovert who wants even more social interaction in your life, then these furry friends are perfect for you. Even if you're more of an introvert, having a sweet, cuddly, and quiet dog around you is a welcome distraction from all the annoying people in the world. Alth…

That warm fuzzy feeling

Halloween season is almost here, so it's time to celebrate all of the vermin in the animal kingdom. Sure, black cats, bats, and spiders typically get the publicity for this upcoming month, but many different animals deserve a chance to shine as Halloween Monster Animal of the Year TM . For instance, raccoons . If Universal Studios had not featured black cats as horror icons and instead made raccoons a monster animal in their B movie horror flicks of the 1930s, I guarantee raccoons would be the…

Cats are the bomb, but cats have their fair share of haters who can never keep it to themselves. These cat haters all have the same blanket excuses for disliking cats. One of these excuses is, "when you die, your cat will eat your dead body." Well, to that, I say, I'm glad she will. If my cat didn't gobble up my corpse in a desperate bid at survival, I would be disappointed, to say the least. But let's not think about that morbid side of cats. Let's think of positive things! Sunshine, rainbows,…

Nowadays, it's increasingly challenging to find memes for the whole family. Ten years ago, wholesome memes comprised a much more significant portion of the meme ecosystem. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. Now, so many memes you come across are either depressing, catastrophizing, or just plain rude. Extremely online people might not think there's a market for solely wholesome memes. However, they'd be wrong! I can't tell you the number of people who tell me, “I only want to use social m…

Even if you don't have a doggy of your own, you likely see dogs every day. When I'm walking to work and see an incredibly excitable puppy lunging toward me, I often feel conflicted about how to proceed. While, on the one hand, I'd love to pet the dog and give it all of the affirmations it deserves, I know most dog walkers usually don't want to get stopped by randos. It's a brutal world out there for us dog lovers without pets of our own. One of my favorite dog-related activities is looking at p…

It is wild that nearly every kid I knew wanted to be an animal scientist or a marine biologist when they grew up. I guess it makes sense since animals are one of the four interests children consistently have across generations: animals, books, sports, and pink. If you meet a kid that doesn't possess at least one of these interests, you have just met an individual in the 99th percentile of uniqueness. Kids and adults love animals, and I don't blame them. Animals love you unconditionally unless t…
