Gossipable!

When one group of tourists embarked on a whale-watching trip in Quebec, they had no idea just how thrilling it would be. Sure, these trips usually take you to locations where tour organizers can guarantee you'll spot a more common humpback whale, but the truth is, you never really know what nature has in store for you. Well, this lucky group came up close and personal with a fin whale, the planet's second largest mammal, surpassed by only the blue whale. Eric Mouellic captured the encounter, which happened near where the Saguenay and St. Lawrence Rivers meet in Tadoussac, on camera — so you can experience this once-in-a-lifetime sight from the comfort of your own home. The magnificent creature can first be spotted in the distance, but then he swims closer and closer to the inflatable boat, passing right beneath it. It's amazing just how clearly visible the intricate white markings along his body are. And his fin and tail come so close that they're basically touching the...

It's 2016, which means women are kicking a$$, running for president, and, sure, carrying c#ndoms. Duh. While there shouldn't be a stigma against anyone who's prepared for safe s#x, c#ndom company Sustain wanted to address the weird tab00 that targets women in particular. So to demystify this age-old double standard, CEO of Sustain, Meika Hollender, took to the street to ask men how they feel about women who carry c#ndoms on the regular. Click to continue

Boss fights are awesome. Let’s put that out there. They’re often the most memorable aspect of any game they’re in, exhibiting plenty of spectacle while demanding immaculate technique and timing in return from the player. In the past, there have been many quality boss fights, but not all of them have been impressive enough to become etched into our memories quite like those featured below. Click to continue

It’s one thing to get a movie recommendation from a friend or family member, but what are the underrated favorites of the people that make your favorite movies? I reached out to filmmakers of every genre to get their one recommendation of an underappreciated movie you absolutely have to see. If you’re yet to watch these underrated gems, you now know what you’re doing this weekend. ADAM MCKAY - The Big Short A movie that very few people have seen: Idiocracy by Mike Judge: a movie that was inexplicably buried by the studio that released it. The great Mike Judge predicts the Trump phenomenon in this comedy that hilariously follows through on the anti-intellectualism and consumerism that have swamped America for the past few decades. I believe it’s the Dr. Strangelove of our time. Click to continue reading

There’s a reason so many people talk about broken hearts and break ups so often…drum roll, please…BECAUSE THEY ARE HORRIBLE. Sure, let’s joke about Taylor Swift or the culture of subtweeting, but when two people part ways, it’s a substantial loss, no matter how you slice it. In cases of losing a loved one to death, we’re much more comfortable with labeling what we experience as grief. But someone doesn’t have to bite the dust for us to grieve them. Psychologists usually split up the grieving process into different categories: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. So for you kiddos out there hurting (or screaming, depending on the stage you’ve hit), I’ve put together a comprehensive music playlist for each level you’ll hit while staying in Heartbreak Hotel. 1. Denial aka: Nah, we’re fine!!!! It’s seriously fine….right? I Don’t Believe You – Pink Nope, you still love me. Losing You – Solange I don’t know why Solange doesn’t get more love. I know it’s almost blasphemous t...

15. “Just Got Paid” Every time I cashed my minimum wage check from Blockbuster Video back in 2000, I would crank this song in my Geo Tracker to let everyone know of my recent financial blessings. 14. “God Must Have Spent A Little More Time On You” This was one of the group’s most popular ballads so you have to respect that, however there were others that were much better.

1. I Want You – Kings Of Leon I’m a huge Kings Of Leon fan. Honestly, couldn’t even really tell you why. But. This. God. Damn. Song. It’s audit#ry l#be. But it’s also somewhat haunting. Very n#stalgic, passionate, maybe-we’re-about-break-up s#x. I WANT YOUUUUUUUUUUUU! 2. Canna Butter Kisses – Elli Ingram Click to continue reading

Being a pre-teen girl in the 90s was awesome. Pedal pushers were a thing. And so we’re temagotchis, and neon friendship bracelets. We watched Saved By The Bell reruns, felt a kindred relationship with the characters from Rugrats and Recess, lived for Boy Meets World, and gave our hearts to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. If you were a pre-teen girl in the late 90s and early 2000s however, you have a special relationship with a lot of the (pop) music that was coming out. You spent way too much time in the mirror perfecting J.Lo’s dances, performing solo to Britney’s songs, and fighting with your friends over who got to be the lead singer in every girl group from Destiny’s Child to TLC. You associate every single song with many good  memories, and the nostalgia is sometimes so strong that you scream whenever you’re out and hear these songs again. It was really really difficult to decide who would get on this list. And I’m sure I’ll miss out on a few timeless tracks. But the following ar...

Oh, so you’ve got a crush? Maybe it’s the beginning stages of a relationship. Maybe you just really, really think that barista is cute and you fantasize about the life you could have together every time they call out your name. What? Totally normal. Totally okay. For those entering (or already residing in) Crushtown, USA, here are some songs to compliment all those butterflies you’ve got swarming your body. 1. “Solid As A Rock” – Ella Fitzgerald Oh yes, we are getting OLD SCHOOL WITH IT. I’m a big Fitzgerald fan in general, but damn, when that crushing starts up I’m all into ultimate throwback jams like this. I call it swoon music. Your heart just kinda swoons and sighs, like a giddy schoolgirl. *heart-eyes emoji* 2. “Just In Time” – Dean Martin Click to continue reading

Break out the drinks and the popcorn and settle in for a long night because these seven films are the cream of the terrifying crop. 1. THE BIRCH A young boy, bullied beyond his ability to withstand it, finally appeals to the power of an ancient woodland being for protection and vengeance. He gets more than he expects. A fantastically produced piece with wonderful effects, visuals, and acting. Extremely imaginative and loaded with great concepts that will have your imagination jumping.

After a devastating few weeks for the LGBTQ community in light of the Orlando massacre, Sunday’s Pride march came at a passionate time. New York City law enforcement planned for the largest Pride march in the cities history and amidst the mourning a beautiful moment was captured below. “This parade is monumental for us because of the Orlando shooting. It hit really close to home. We wanted to walk in the parade in honor of the 49 victims, said FDNY EMT Julianna Arroyo, from Station 20 in the Bronx. “At the same time, I wanted to give [girlfriend, now-fiancée] Erika something positive to remember from the parade.” Erika was surprised, and the crowd was overjoyed. Love is love, and love is so good! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Seriously. This is beyond. The luckiest woman in the world has walked down the aisle to her gorgeous, emotional husband in a video that has gone viral via Daily Mail. Gabriel Deku, 25, was (clearly) overwhelmed when he caught a glimpse of his beautiful bride-to-be, see the video below. The wedding congregation broke out into loud cheers when they saw his reaction, while his best man encouraged him to keep it together, “Come on, stand up, stand up. This is your moment, man. You look at her.” Wedding filmmaker John De Rienzo, told the Daily Mail: “This has to be one of the most heartfelt, emotional bridal entrances we have ever filmed.” All. The. Feels.

As we all know, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are the best couple in Hollywood since Brad and Jen vibes. (Controversial, I know, but I am a Jen fan at heart, get over it). Anyway, Lively and Reynolds have been giving us #relationshipgoals for what seems like forever, even though their love affair started off at an awkward double date with different partners (it’s like a rom-com ready to roll). The genetically blessed couple were friends first, although Reynolds recently revealed he felt sparks at that fateful double date. Funnily enough, Lively didn’t! (lol awks). In an interview with EW, she noted, “[That date] went well for him. I don’t know about fireworks for me. [laughs].” Apparently there was some serious friend-zoning going on before they realized they were meant to be together 4eva. “No, yeah, we were such good friends for so long and we both got to know each other as friends so when we were both single, we were still trying to find each other’s [perfect date],” Lively continu...
