There are still some segments of society hung up on the issue of ending cannabis prohibition due to an unfounded fear that the seed-bearing plant is somehow a “gateway drug” that leads to a life of vice and crime. But the real gateway substances that we should all be worried about, and perhaps the ones […]

We’re bringing this claim to your attention because a growing number of observers, websites and analysts are concluding that Hurricane Harvey was “engineered” and made into a “weather weapon” through a combination of ground-based temperature manipulation tools and “chemtrail” seeding.

Dating back to the end of the Ice Age, certain art pieces found on cave walls have resembled what is known today as a handbag or purse.

North Carolina is the one state where the law explicitly says you cannot revoke consent once it’s given. A bill that would remove this “unacceptable loophole” has little traction.

al-Anbar province: numerous flights by US-led coalition planes airdrop weapons and supplies for ISIL in terrorist-held areas.

We have not been in a position to corroborate this report by FARS  News.  Iraq’s […]

Fish. They swim around without emotion and, let’s be honest, don’t pay taxes. But according to a highly cited study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, they might be good for something after all: helping us humans procreate. I’ll give you a second to take that in. According to the study, 501 couples were surveyed for from […]

We can’t emphasize enough how important it is to stay hydrated for kids and adults. Severe cases of dehydration can cause problems such as disorientation, heat stroke, or seizures. This time of year, the temperatures are hotter and we can easily lose water from being in the heat. Hanging out outdoors, exercising, and illness are all contributors to dehydration, […]

Some things are just out of your control. Your dishwasher stopped working, your favorite jersey got a hole in it, and whenever you eat curry for dinner you get crazy weird nightmares about John Waters chasing you with an ax. And while we can’t fix your dishwasher or repair your jersey, we can explain why […]

Viparita Karani is often called Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose, but viparita actually means “inverted,” and karani means “in action.” We can interpret that to mean that the pose inverts the typical actions that happen in our bodies when we sit and stand. There are many benefits to inverting the actions in your body. Here are a few. The first […]

For most of us, a day of thunderstorms on a summer Saturday means staying inside with a cup of tea and a good movie. For others, though, a thunderstorm may be a brutal trigger for a headache.

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte is thinking of dumping his smartphone over fears that the CIA is constantly eavesdropping on his conversations and might use his private information to eventually assassinate him. “I know, the US is listening.

In a hideous reflection of China’s already-prevalent ‘Social Credit’ system – which is a rating assigned to each citizen based on government data regarding their economic and social status – The Washington Post reports that Facebook has begun to assign its users a reputation score, predicting their trustworthiness on a scale from zero to one. Under the guise of its effort to […]

Watermelon is a summertime staple, and if you’re like me, you live for the point when the sweet fruit is finally in season. But apparently, there’s a way to make watermelon even better!

An official state of emergency has been declared in Florida as there has been some kind of toxic red tide outbreak in Southwest Florida.

After more than 125 years of mystery, scientists think they have reconfirmed the final resting place of the world’s forgotten ‘eighth wonder’, clearing up much of the uncertainty from previous studies.

Sometimes in the most eco-conscious families, eating sustainably might not be something you make part of your daily routine. Even when your family eats a healthy, nutritious diet, that doesn’t mean that it’s eco-friendly at the same time. Many of the issues that the planet is suffering from are related to food production and the […]

Are these statues ancient representations of alien beings? Undoubtedly, the original meaning and purpose of a great deal of ancient artwork have been lost over time.

They’re a popular delicacy across the world and considered an aphrodisiac by many. But while lots of people enjoy eating oysters, it seems there’s one thing people don’t really know about them.

Chauncy had come to the grocery […]

I’m not sure the last time I sat through an entire advert on YouTube. I feel I’ve become pretty good at hovering the mouse over the ‘Skip Ad’ button so I can hit it as soon as the 10 seconds are up, almost like a ‘test your reactions’ game. While adverts are now an inevitable […]

“Papers, please?” That’s a question you might hear from authorities trying to verify who you are if you lived in an authoritarian police state.
