Even the perfect marriage (if there was such a thing) would have its daily frustrations. Funnily enough, most fights aren't caused by big decisions but the simple, day-to-day questions, such as “What do you want for dinner?"; “Are we free Friday night?"; and “What movie do you want to see?"

Here are some hilarious tweets that just about every married couple will understand.

Deep reading can boost your critical thinking and help you resist misinformation – here’s how to build the skill

The average American checks their phone over 140 times a day, clocking an average of 4.5 hours of daily use, with 57% of people admitting they’re “addicted” to their phone. Tech companies, influencers and other content creators compete for all that attention, which has incentivized the rise of misinformation.

Considering this challenging information landscape, strong critical reading skills are as relevant and necessary as they’ve ever been.

Flight attendant reveals the one extremely common passenger request they will always say no to

There is a specific type of anxiety that comes with boarding a plane. You are holding up the line, the aisle is narrow, and suddenly you have to hoist a 30-pound suitcase above your head while 100 people watch.

It is a humiliating struggle, and for many passengers, the natural instinct is to look at the flight attendant for help.

The decision to put a pet to sleep is perhaps the hardest choice an owner ever has to make. You agonize over the timing, fearing you are waiting too long or acting too soon. For Alexandra Blumenfeld (@alexblumy) and her family, the time had seemingly come for their 11-year-old dog, Brinkley.

Brinkley had been battling a terminal cancer diagnosis for a year. Recently, his condition had taken a sharp turn for the worse. He was exhausted, breathing heavily, and scans revealed internal bleeding and tumors.

When meaningful work is paired with opportunities to be intellectually and creatively stimulated, it becomes a career people genuinely feel lucky to have. In a Reddit thread, people shared the jobs they love and find deeply fulfilling.

These '80s and '90s TV commercials are blasts of nostalgia.

Why these innocent, soothing '80s and '90s TV commercials hit people like nostalgic comfort food

If you were to play a TV commercial from the 1950s next to one from the 1980s and another from the 2020s, the differences in vibe would be startling. There are countless contributing factors, ranging from the evolution of filmmaking to the influence of social media and streaming platforms.

But if you were to say, "They don’t make them like they used to," about ads from the '80s and 1990s, you'd be right in the most literal sense. Advertisements are, at their best, works of art, and it only makes sense that they would evolve.

Happiness expert reveals the one big perception shift that can make you happier and more successful

Americans are obsessed with happiness. We spend billions of dollars on books, courses, and therapy trying to find it. But according to Arthur C. Brooks, a Harvard professor and social scientist, we might be looking for it in the safest places, when we should be looking in the riskiest.

In his work, including The Happiness Files: Insights on Work and Life, Brooks proposes a radical shift in perception: You should treat your life like a startup.

Woman comes up with creative hack to combat dangerous (and obnoxious) LED car headlights

If you have driven on a highway at night recently, you know the feeling: You are cruising along when suddenly, your rearview mirror lights up with the intensity of a thousand suns. You aren't being abducted by aliens; you are just being tailgated by a modern sedan.

Since Toyota first introduced LED headlights to the U.S. market with the 2008 Lexus LS 600h, drivers have been locked in a cold war over visibility. While LEDs are great for the person driving the car, they are often a nightmare for everyone else on the road.

Half of Americans say they've cut their screen time. And it's Gen Z leading the way, not Boomers.

A survey released in 2026 found that 50% of Americans say they’ve cut their screen time. Less time in front of phones, pads, laptops, televisions, everything. However, the generation leading the charge isn’t Boomers or Gen X, who have lived significantly longer without the Internet or social media, but the generation born into an already-online world.

Out of all the generations surveyed, Talker Research found that 63% of Gen Z made it a point to unplug and cut their screen time, followed by Millennials (57%), Gen X (42%), and then Baby Boomers (29%). Their reasons varied, but the folks surveyed said that having digital disconnection helped them feel more productive (42%), aware of what’s going on in their daily lives (33%), and present for their loved ones (33%).
