To raise awareness for their brand, an art supply company created this viral campaign featuring real people using technology to create beautiful abstract art. Sixteen disabled individuals in China (home to the world’s largest disabled population) were invited to participate in the project, which involved using advanced brainwave scanning technology in conjunction with detonator-equipped, paint-filled balloons. The video seems to show that by concentrating really hard, the participants were able to trigger the colorful explosions, resulting in some very unique pieces.

A student’s brilliant homework answer just outsmarted her teacher’s ridiculously sexist question

It takes a significant amount of confidence for a child to correct an educator, but one 8-year-old girl from Birmingham, England, recently did so with just seven letters. Yasmine, a young student whose quick wit is currently circulating online, was faced with a seemingly simple English assignment that carried a heavy dose of outdated gender bias.

The homework in question was a word puzzle designed around the letters “UR.” One of the clues provided by the teacher was the phrase “Hospital Lady.” The intended answer, which fit the puzzle’s constraints, was “nurse.” While most children might have filled in the expected term without a second thought, Yasmine had a different perspective: she wrote “surgeon.”

NBA star Michael Jordan opened a fourth North Carolina health clinic for the uninsured

Michael Jordan is widely considered the greatest of all time on the basketball court, but he is currently building a different kind of legacy in his home state of North Carolina. In a continued partnership with Novant Health, Jordan recently celebrated the opening of his fourth medical clinic specifically designed to serve the uninsured. This latest facility, located in Wilmington, opened its doors in February 2025 and marks the second clinic Jordan has established in that city alone.

The 7,300 square foot facility is a significant addition to the community, featuring 12 patient rooms and a dedicated team of primary care physicians.

The one key aspect to a healthy marriage that can make your relationship last for a lifetime

Everyone wants to know the secret to a marriage that goes the distance. While pop culture often focuses on the sparks and the romance, a growing conversation among relationship experts suggests we might be looking at the wrong thing. According to Harvard professor and relationship researcher Dr. Arthur Brooks, the foundation of a lasting bond isn't actually what most people think.

During an appearance on the podcast The Drive hosted by Dr. Peter Attia, Brooks explained that while passion is a natural part of the start of a relationship, it isn't the primary goal for the long haul. Brooks stated that “the goal of your marriage is not passion, it's friendship.”

Confident woman with a large facial scar reveals how she handles rude comments

Kate Bogner is currently making waves online for her refreshing and unapologetic stance on body confidence. As a child, Bogner was diagnosed with a rare condition called scleroderma en coup de sabre. According to the National Scleroderma Foundation, the name translates to “the cut of a sabre,” which describes the appearance of the scar on the skin. While the foundation notes that the causes of this autoimmune disease are unknown, the physical impact can be life-altering, particularly when it affects the face.

Now in remission and working as a holistic health coach, Bogner is using her platform to address the unwanted attention her scar often attracts. In a recent video that is resonating with thousands, Bogner revealed that she has frequently been told to "get bangs" to hide the line running through her forehead. Her response is a masterclass in self-worth.
