We wanted to understand the economic rationale for buying Greenland. So we talked to three unvaccinated UFC fans at a Jersey Mike's in Toms River.

I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

A big loss for St. Louis 😔

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a raging snowstorm, and Agatha Christie novel, a crackling fire, a kettle on the stove, and a basket of emotional support pastries.

Betty White will once again grace Americans' lives, not on TV, but on your mail. The US Postal Service will honor the beloved American TV icon with her own stamp next year. cnn.it/4hUbv8c

very unlikely i will ever parent an actual child but having a very clever orange cat has given me a reasonable approximation of having a perpetual two-year-old

This.
Anyone else get baffled by that often asked question - how do you arrange your bookshelves?

There is no arranging. I, erm, I just put them on there.

That’s it.
