A few weeks ago a young feller was recalling an interweb exchange he had, in which he floored someone with a story that was meant to provide an airtight case for moral ambiguity. I don’t really remember the details of the story, but it was something to do with a man with cancer (or who […]
Let’s be honest ladies – even a PhD isn’t an excuse to look like a sad mushroom in lab. Just because your day is filled with cleaning up rodent poo doesn’t mean your beauty shouldn’t shine forth! I have been working in an animal laboratory for over 10 years now, and I have picked up […]

Gallo Research Institute estimates up to 130% of families experience deep distress around the holidays, mostly due to scheduling snafus. Thanks to a new app ToodleDoodle […]
It is with great heaviness of heart I report a recent phenomenon scouring the Christian community: couples who are unequally faceboked.
