In 1994, Julia Sweeney’s popular Saturday Night Live character, Pat Riley, was given a movie adaptation entitled It’s Pat. The film revolves around the androgynous and obnoxious Pat, who falls in love with Chris, another person of indeterminate gender played by Kids in the Hall star Dave Foley. Meanwhile, Pat’s neighbor, Kyle (Charles Rocket), develops an attraction to Pat and becomes obsessed with finding out Pat’s gender. This has a negative effect on Kyle’s relationship with his wife as he be

Researchers have recently discovered an uncharted island in the northwestern Weddell Sea, which was previously designated an Antarctic “danger zone.” Upon their discovery, they mapped the island, which now appears on nautical charts. They announced the discovery in an April press release from the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), a German polar research center. According to the press release, “A 93-strong international expedition team has been exploring the northwestern Weddell Sea in the Antar

Kevin James first met Billy Joel around 2009, while attending one of his concerts in Florida. The King of Queens star got to talk to Joel backstage that night, and the two immediately clicked over the fact that they were both from Long Island. James and Joel have been friends ever since, and Joel’s asked James to make a number of appearances at his live shows over the years. These comedic guest spots usually take place at major venues such as New York’s Madison Square Garden and Long Islan

We’re just a week away from the start of June, one of the most energizing and fortunate months of the year. And while 2026 has certainly thrown all of us for a loop so far, June is expected to bring some well-deserved blessings and luck, especially to a few specific zodiac signs. “This June is arguably the luckiest month of the year, containing the celebrated annual Venus-Jupiter conjunction, arriving early in the month on June 9th,” says Rachel Ruth Tate, professional astrologer and Host of

Pluto retrograde is the main character today, and most people are going to feel it in their bones before they can name it. The Sun trining Pluto means transformation is available and accessible — the kind that actually sticks. But Mars is squaring Pluto at the same time, stargazer, which means some of that change is going to feel forced before it feels good. Add the Moon caught between Venus and Saturn, and you’ve got a day where what you want, what you feel, and what you’re obligate

The following three albums were released in the hardcore punk scene of the 80s. But they remained relatively underrated at the time. Even the most punk rock of the punks may have forgotten about these albums. If you didn’t, that’s great! But for everyone else, here’s a reminder. ‘Skag Heaven’ by Squirrel Bait Skag Heaven, released in 1987, is the only album by Squirrel Bait, whose members went on to form other influential punk bands. They disbanded s

“100% of our testers had an orgasm.” That’s the claim for luxury sex toy company Womanizer’s Enhance, clit sucker. Quite the claim, so duh, we had to try it out for ourselves. When it comes to clit suckers, everyone’s using them. Not to sound too freaked out, but last time my lover used it on me, I flipped it and put it on the tip of his dick. The moan he let out??? Ungodly. So, just know when I say everyone’s using them… we quite literally all are.  Quick refresher: Clit suckers started t

While the 80s are sometimes considered a bit stale in terms of groundbreaking album releases, the later years produced some great work. Inching toward the 90s when grunge and alt-rock would take over, 1989 gave birth to several significant albums. The following four made an impact for their groups, from an innovative hip-hop debut to a return to moody authenticity. ‘Doolittle’ by Pixies Pixies released their second album, Doolittle, in April 1989. This crucial album h

Some bands debut new songs on the radio or during concerts. Others choose to go straight to the internet for a social or streaming debut. Then there’s Sublime, who are more the “here’s our new song from a Taco Bell parking lot” kind of band. In a new clip shared to YouTube, Sublime singer Jakob Nowell—son of late Sublime founder Bradley Nowell—is seen crooning the band’s new song, “Can’t Miss You”, while sitting in the grass outside of a New Yor

You’ve heard of an artist having the number one album in the country. But have you ever heard of an artist securing three of the top albums? With a hefty trio of albums releasing on Friday, May 22nd, Drake made history by securing the three top spots on the Billboard 200 with ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and Maid of Honour. This was the first time such an honor had ever taken place since Billboard started its charts back in 1956. In the UK, the Toronto MC pulled off a similar feat, notching three a

Zach Galifianakis’s satirical talk show Between Two Ferns ran for 21 episodes between 2008 and 2018. During that time, he conducted awkward interviews with a number of celebrities, many of whom gave viewers the impression that they weren’t happy with Galifianakis’s behavior. Among the big names Galifianakis welcomed over the years were Bruce Willis, Justin Bieber, Brad Pitt, and Barack Obama. But although it absolutely seemed like it at times, Galifianakis is adamant that he never intended t

When a show’s been around for as long as The Simpsons, it’s fair to assume that its longevity has come with a ton of accolades. Throughout its 37-season run, the hit animated series has earned countless awards and nominations and featured some of the few cartoon characters to have received stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. On top of all that, The Simpsons has quite a few Guinness World Records that pertain to it, which we’re gonna do a thorough examination of today. Let’s begin with the re

Most erectile dysfunction (ED) meds are going to get your body ready for bedroom fun, but your mind? Absolutely not. If you didn’t know, your mind is your biggest sex organ—no BS, sex researchers swear by this. So, why do most ED meds skip the most important sex organ if the point of taking them is.. Sex? Who knows. But BlueChew is quietly making full-body treatment the new men’s wellness standard with its new BlueChew Gold.  (opens in a new window)

Wedding Crashers, released in 2005, follows divorce mediators John Beckwith and Jeremy Grey (as played by Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn), who crash weddings for the purpose of seducing women. However, after attending the wedding of one of the U.S. Treasury Secretary’s daughters, the pair’s perspectives on things begin to change.

Nobody is sleeping normally anymore. People are trying popular methods like taping their mouths shut, wearing bizarre looking sleep masks, and using magnesium pills. But then there are sleep hacks to sleep max. Some of these hacks feel ridiculous right off the bat. Others sound fake until you realize sleep researchers have been recommending versions of them for years. And not every viral sleep trend deserves attention. But considering how exhausted everyone seems lately, it’s not shocki

A popular Rockstar Games insider claims that GTA 6 pre-orders are not going live on May 18, 2026. According to the reporter, the Best Buy email sent out about Grand Theft Auto VI had the wrong dates. Best Buy GTA 6 Pre-Order Leak Reportedly Had Wrong Dates Screenshot: Rockstar Games Another day, another GTA 6 pre-order rumor. Yes, I know I’m getting tired of this as well! However, this latest update comes from Ben “videotech,” who is pretty well known and considered credible in th

One guy who owns a ton of Pizza Hut franchises has a bold idea that he thinks will revitalize the once-beloved pizza chain. And to be honest, it might just be crazy enough to work. Tim Sparks is the president of Deland Corporation, a private restaurant management company. He’s been converting Pizza Hut restaurants into “Pizza Hut Classics,” which are retro-focused based and resemble the Pizza Hut you went to in the ’90s. Sparks wants to bring back the dine-in experience that us older Pi

Stealing the 800-year-old skull of a beloved saint from a basilica in broad daylight really raises questions about whether your priorities are in line. There are better things to steal. Money, for instance. A candy bar. It also raises some questions of personal taste. If you’re stealing the thing, you had better not put it in an empty apartment next to the flat screen TV sitting on the floor. And yet these thoughts and more did not prevent such a crime from happening, as The Guardian reports

When Wikipedia first launched, there was an understandable fear that its open-source nature would turn humanity’s largest repository of knowledge into a pile of nonsense dominated by propagandists and lunatics. Instead, Wikipedia somehow evolved into one of the most reliable information sources on Earth, a digital Library of Alexandria fueled by obsessive volunteers and endless debates on the validity of a citation. Now, in the middle of the AI-content apocalypse, that idea of a shared object

There’s a sleep sweet spot, and missing it is aging you faster than you think. We’re not talking puffy eyes and some deeper wrinkles. Your brain, your organs, your blood, your heart. Biological aging, across the board, is happening faster than it should. A sweeping new study published in Nature mapped how nightly sleep duration connects to biological aging across multiple organ systems at once, and the findings are hard to brush off. Using 23 biological “aging clocks”
