I frequently convince myself, while stubbornly exploring the limitations of my wasabi tolerance, that sushi is indeed a healthy meal. At the very least, compared to other meats, fish contains more heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids and less artery-clogging saturated fat. Right? But still, some types of sushi...
I was recently perusing r/IdiotsInCars when I stumbled upon a seemingly ordinary dash cam video of a seemingly standard car crash. The alleged “idiot,” in this case, recklessly merges in front of a driver with the dash cam installed, who proceeds to crash directly into the side...
Bad news, Mother Nature: Researchers at the University of Exeter and Plymouth Marine Laboratory recently examined 50 animals from 10 different species of dolphins, whales and seals, and they found so-called microplastics in every single one of them. “It’s shocking — but not surprising — that every...
A little while back, a couple nutrition experts told USA Today that the ultimate hangover cure is an omelette for breakfast and soup for lunch. *checks to make sure I read that right* Look, yes, when you get into the science of it, their reasoning seems sensible:...

My nights are mostly spent competing with both my girlfriend and our 70-pound pitbull for bed space. We have a queen bed, which was (kinda) enough when it was only the two of us. But when we adopted our dog, he insisted on taking up as much...
I’m currently in the midst of a chaotic move, and let me tell you: I’m one more heavy dresser away from blowing my brains out. Now, I admit to taking the cheap (and painful) route: My girlfriend and I rented a small moving truck for about $140,...
Call an ambulance if you catch me wearing anything other than House Pants at home, because that means something has gone terribly wrong. My House Pants — a pair of hand-cropped gray joggers — have become a vital part of my being, and I wear them, without...
Less than two weeks ago, as Earth and its people spiraled increasingly closer to imminent devastation, an international committee of 37 scientists released a strongly-worded report urging humanity to adopt a new, planet-friendly diet. The researchers argue that ongoing global food-related crises — namely, climate change, environmental...
We’ve written before about how to protect your skin against wintry weather. But because winter officially blows, frigid temperatures can also wreak havoc on your hair and scalp. To help you help your hair survive the winter, we asked hairstylist Natalie Rose Dixon for some tips: Easy...
Warning: Hard liquor might be carb-free, but drinking too much will still expand your waistline, destroy your liver, and in entirely hypothetical cases, make you puke in the back of a taxi (I’m so, so, so sorry, sir). But that never stopped anyone from going shot-for-shot with...
Here’s an unfortunate beard fact: Facial hair wicks away moisture, allowing it to evaporate before being absorbed into the skin. The end result is a dry, flaky (and super itchy) face. Worse yet, facial hair also catches oil and dirt near the hair follicles, which clog pores...
