Snowy owls are diurnal!

Google search: Unlike most owls, snowy owls are diurnal. They are most active during the day. I am now going to research snowy owl behavior displays, to see if I find anything relevant about what this one is doing here.

I imagine a massage from Nicki Minaj would be incredibly expensive.

Reason #4985 why the word "shocking" should be banned from journalism 5ever.

It was a medical problem, according to the original video and the cat's owner. The cat had some sort of dislocated jaw problem. Before the owner took the cat to the vet (where the issue was fixed), they decided to take one last shot of the funny faces it made. The cat doesn't seem to be in any pain, though!

Public school teacher here. Believe me, many of us try to educate students about this stuff, and debunking basic things. But when the system itself and sometimes kids' own parents are fighting against what is true and right, it can be difficult to break through that crusty crust of denial.

My cat Mr. Jacks loves this. He's enormous and has long hair, so it's helpful to get all we can with the vacuum attachment.

Look, I'm one of those people who sniffs at everyone wearing sweat pants/yoga pants and oversized hoodies to class (I wore a nice outfit EVERY day to college...just graduated last year). BUT. Being on a plane is totally different. There's issues with swelling, and sleeping, and honestly if it's longer than an hour why…

Spelling and grammar are not taught because teaching these subjects alone, without any context, has shown to be ineffective and a waste of time. They are integrated into reading, writing, and speaking so that there is context; for example, you use writing and revision to learn spelling and grammar instead of taking…

WEENIES.

My best friend and one of her other friends met in a similar circumstance. In college they found out that this frat boy was sleeping with both of them (#notallfratboys, I'm dating a perfectly nice one!). Now, neither girl was in a relationship with him, but after figuring out what he was doing, and out of the shared…

Noooooo, grow more leeks! They are so good but so expensive...

I love me a grilled chicken vegeta

I truly don't understand why more northern states don't use grits in cooking! I'm a northern girl myself, but my family ate grits once in a while; the texture is great and you can use them as anything from a side to a meal bed to substitute mashed potatoes to breakfast to dessert.

Shoes do come in varying-ish widths! My mom wears a size 9 narrow. There's narrow, regular, and wide. You just have to ask! Buuuuuuut you won't find those options in every brand for every size, so that is a Thing.

Man, I think ANYtime someone references GoPro in an unnecessary way is just getting attention/part of a secret or not-so-secret advertisement. "Me Doing SomethingSomething with my GoPro," like it's so necessary to put that in the title/interview. You put that shit in the description, after "Camera used:" like everyone…

I just can't see the point of buying expensive clothes for children, even full-priced regular clothes. They grow out of it in two seconds!

There was a Cracked article that talked about how in America, our culture trains us (in general) to feel good when others' succeed. They cited some research and showed a video of a guy winning the million on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? where the crowd just keeps going insane the more money he wins and almost always…

Has anyone ever seen the barely-censored hentai mags before? Someone sent me a link to one once and it's kind of funny what they do to stay within legal limits. Technically, all porn has to blur genitalia, regular and animated. But a lot of times you'll see the tiniest little black bars on the tips of penises and…

Ughhhhhhhh, this happened to my sister. Once with a leather jacket that she bought at Banana Republic. Our family is full of smart shoppers, and she got the jacket on super super sale brand new. At Dillards, trying on a pair of new shoes, she said she'd have to pass on them because they were expensive, and the shoe…
