Two guys held hands, walked around Moscow and filmed the reactions of those around them. These interactions occur in broad daylight, in Russia’s biggest city – imagine the sort of abuse they would suffer during nighttime, or in more rural areas. It’s frightening to think about.

There's a surprisingly spicy reason for 'Groundhog Day.' And yes, it's all about sex.

According to legend, if the groundhog sees his shadow on February 2nd, there will be six more weeks of winter; if not, an early spring is predicted.

Of course groundhogs – also known as woodchucks – don’t emerge at this time just to be furry weather predictors. So what’s the real reason? Research into groundhog biology shows they have other priorities in early February than mingling with the people of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

In a viral TikTok that has since been deleted, user @ta.mia.a shared her experience at a BMW dealership. She arrived ready to buy, but a salesman’s dismissive attitude ultimately cost him a commission and ignited a massive online conversation about racial profiling.

Sociologist Tressie McMillan Cottom shares why political self-care isn't about disengaging

With the political and social conflict facing Americans today, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. A lack of power or direction can lead to depression and feelings of helplessness.

In an interview with PBS News, Tressie McMillan Cottom, a sociologist at the University of North Carolina, explained why self-care that involves pulling back isn't the solution to political exhaustion. Instead, she suggested that taking appropriate action can help people feel energized, even when the political arena seems damaged beyond repair.

Defendant catches beloved judge off guard  when asked if he was 'coerced' into pleading guilty

Few individuals outside the legal profession enjoy finding themselves in a courtroom. Even more distressing is trying to navigate the role of defendant. With the pressure of potentially losing a court case that could result in jail time, most would find it an uncomfortable, if not frightening, experience.

In this instance, the judge presiding over the case found himself in an uncomfortable position. Judge J. Cedric Simpson of the 14A-1 District Court inadvertently found himself part of the defense after the defendant claimed the judge was the reason he pleaded guilty.

Brothers vs. Sisters: Who is actually kinder to their siblings? Science finally has an answer.

I once threw a butter knife at my brother. In my defense, I missed.

Science would describe this as direct aggression. History suggests that males are generally more predisposed to direct, physical aggression than females. We have centuries of documented stories and research to confirm that men are usually the ones starting the fights.

In 1999, Genesis quietly revamped a '70s classic with Peter Gabriel and it remains sadly overlooked

The biggest "what if" in progressive rock history dates back to late 2004. The five members of the beloved '70s lineup of Genesis—singer Peter Gabriel, singer-drummer Phil Collins, keyboardist Tony Banks, bassist/guitarist Mike Rutherford, and guitarist Steve Hackett—met in Glasgow, Scotland. They were there to discuss an ambitious reunion tour focused on their 1974 album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.

Those talks fizzled, leaving the band’s core later-era trio to organize the Turn It On Again Tour in 2007 instead.

A counseling professor unpacks the difference between letting go and making up

Two in five Americans have fought with a family member about politics, according to a 2024 study by the American Psychiatric Association. One in five have become estranged over controversial issues, and the same percentage has “blocked a family member on social media or skipped a family event” due to disagreements.

Difficulty working through conflict with those close to us can cause irreparable harm to families and relationships. What’s more, inability to heal these relationships can be detrimental to physical and emotional well-being, and even longevity.
