Many people consider various courses in business ethics and business to be a waste of time, but in fact, they are not. Of course, there is a lot of useless information there, but the main thing they teach is the ability to separate personal and business behavior. In fact, this is the cornerstone of professionalism – to behave in certain situations at work differently than in personal communication. This is especially true when an employee gives in a 2-week notice, and the manager perceives it as a teenager in love who was abandoned by their beloved....

I love pink and glitter as much as the next person, but I don’t need everything that I own, including razors, power tools and underwear, to be exuding femininity .

I recently finished a large commissioned painting and I wanted to share the process of how the piece was developed and executed. Since it was a commissioned piece, the concept was something I discussed and worked out with the client beforehand. We talked about what she was looking for, elements she liked and might want to include, and I started from there. The finished piece is done in oils on a birch panel, with areas of exposed wood, acrylic and ink, 36×48 inches....

There are a few threads doing the rounds, where netizens answer questions like, “What is the scariest story you know that is 100% true?...

While all people are destined to go through some kind of hardship in their lifetimes, few things could compare to the terror of war. Even though the genocide of Jews during World War II is one of the most heartwrenching tragedies in human history, some ties that were torn apart by the terrors of war are being mended as history unfolds, and gaining a brighter future. While the family of Eliahu Pietruszka was torn apart by the Holocaust and left Eliahu believing he was the sole family member who survived, it turns out that his little brother managed to escape as well, and even found a way to leave a testimony for his elder brother, so the family ties could be reconnected even after his passing....

Ireland doesn’t exist. Bay leaves do absolutely nothing for your food. Lint rollers leave your clothes slightly sticky on purpose so they pick up even more lint—meaning you’ll keep buying refills forever and remain trapped in the lint industrial complex. And lotteries ? Obviously designed to catch time travelers who “coincidentally” nail the winning numbers. Sounds silly, but that’s the entire point of r/LowStakesConspiracies. It’s a subreddit where people share hilarious , harmless theories just for the fun of it—no alien cover-ups or government scandals required....

Still, differences ought to be celebrated and folks online choose to do that by pointing out what’s normal in Europe (and other places, really) but might look weird to the average American....

Cheating is incredibly heartbreaking, no matter how you look at it. But while sometimes the betrayal is impossible to miss, other times it’s much harder to spot.

Of all the awesome quotes that Breaking Bad has to offer, this one somehow chose to haunt me forever - Jesus Christ, Marie, they’re not rocks. They’re minerals!

While free might be one of the best words in the dictionary, folks gotta understand that very little truly comes for free . If it’s not money, then it’s private data or time or engagement or whatever. Makes the idea of something really being free even that more tempting. However, folks do have to be careful with it or else they will end up coming off as super entitled like this couple who flat out demanded (and expected) their new next door neighbor to babysit their kids....

The Christina Aguilera Ozempic saga has another chapter, this time thanks to a sultry Instagram photoshoot that was quickly thrown into the pyre that fuels the ongoing speculation about her weight loss.

The clock ticking louder and louder as the seconds pass. But to many, it becomes their reality as the lights turn off in the surgical theater and the doctors do all they can to extend life.

It’s funny how the most ordinary stuff can surprise you. The kind of little design details and everyday tricks that feel obvious once you see them, but somehow never make it onto your radar until the exact moment you need them. Sometimes it’s a quick fix, sometimes it’s a smarter way to use what you already have, and sometimes it’s just one of those small discoveries that makes you think, wait, why didn’t I know this sooner?...

Gentle Violence includes a series of exhibitions through which the human body is being presented in an educational and artistic manner, while the surgical treatment is being aesthetically reinterpreted.
