We'd like to introduce you to another person bringing attention to the special relationship between fathers and daughters.

Ukrainian artist Snezhana Soosh has created a series of paintings that beautifully show this amazing bond.

“I always wanted to have a tender and loving relationship with my own father, but he didn't know how to show his love, so most of the time was distant and cold," Soosh told The Huffington Post.

“I was observing other fathers with their daughters and so loved each tender moment they had together. I think I drew what I lacked and very much wanted � to feel loved and protected by my big papa." Her paintings do a beautiful job at celebrating a wonderful relationship and showing the tender side of masculinity.

Scientists created a black hole in a lab to test a theory—then it unexpectedly began glowing

Black holes are the most mysterious cosmic objects that NASA has ever studied. The most intriguing thing about a black hole is that gravity and spacetime are so strong in it that even light can't escape.

Recently, scientists have created simulated black holes to help their understanding of the phenomenon. The black hole analog replicates the theoretical radiation emitted by the real thing, as per Science Alert and can help scientists study the black hole in actual detail.

George Harrison's elaborate prank on Phil Collins may be the funniest joke in rock history

Beatle George Harrison was pigeonholed as the "Quiet Beatle," but the youngest member of the Fab Four had an acerbic, dry sense of humor that was as sharp as the rest of his bandmates.

He gave great performances in the musical comedy classics "A Hard Days Night" and "Help!" while holding his own during The Beatles' notoriously anarchic press conferences. After he left the band in 1970, in addition to his musical career, he would produce the 1979 Monty Python comedy classic, "The Life of Brian."

Woman notices something odd in a news photo—25 years after her brother vanished

When someone close suddenly disappears, their family clings fiercely to hope—even if the search stretches across decades. A woman who had spent years desperately searching for her younger brother, Tommy, discovered an astonishing lead after 25 years of uncertainty. Ahead of Thanksgiving, a seemingly ordinary detail in an online news story changed their lives forever.

For decades, the sister had carried deep sadness about Tommy’s disappearance in 1999. According to CNN, Tommy had vanished along with his vehicle without leaving any trace. Over the years, she anxiously scoured reports of unidentified remains, fearing the worst. However, her fortunes changed dramatically after coming across an article in USA Today, which featured a hospitalized man whose identity was unknown, as he could neither speak nor communicate effectively.

Receptionist delivers perfect comeback after customer demands a 4th-floor room in a 3-floor hotel

Working the front desk requires more than just good grooming and bookkeeping skills—it often means navigating truly bizarre customer demands. In June 2021, a Reddit user shared a story in the r/MaliciousCompliance community about one particularly entitled guest who insisted she had a reservation on a floor that didn’t even exist.

"Customer had a reservation for the 4th floor at a 3-floor hotel so I took her to the roof," the hotel employee wrote in the caption of the now-deleted Reddit post, according to Bored Panda.

Scientists puzzled by Earth's 'heartbeat' that causes tremors every 26 seconds

Although Earth might seem like a stable, flat surface where we live our lives, seismologists have discovered that it’s far from passive. In fact, Earth has a 'heartbeat' that pulses every 26 seconds, according to Discover Magazine. Known as "microseisms," these faint seismic tremors resemble tiny earthquakes, though they aren’t exactly the same. For decades, scientists have been baffled by these mysterious tremors, and despite many theories, no definitive explanation has been found.

Rude passenger steals a man's plane seat—so he teaches her a perfect lesson

Air travel is stressful enough without entitled passengers making it worse. Whether it's armrest hoggers or seat recliners, there's always someone who makes the journey unpleasant. But one airline passenger took things to another level—flat-out refusing to move from a seat she didn't pay for.

Reddit user u/compile_commit shared the wild story, which involved his cousin flying from Ahmedabad to Kolkata on Indigo Airlines. He had specifically booked an exit row aisle seat and even paid extra for it. However, when he boarded, he found a woman already sitting there, completely unwilling to move.

These 16 non-political questions can predict whether you’re a Democrat or Republican

Recent polls suggest that Republicans and Democrats have slightly different tastes that have nothing to do with politics. If you like cats, The Beatles, and Starbucks, you tend to vote Democrat. If you're into Toby Keith, Budweiser, and Dunkin' Donuts, you tend to vote Republican.

But a new quiz from the Pew Research Center uses 16 non-political questions to place people into one of nine political typology groups. These questions avoid hot-button issues and instead look at deeper values and beliefs. Curious where you land? Take the quiz before scrolling further.
