Most folks recognize that things do change, bit by bit, but it can be hard to actually pinpoint the major differences without seeing a direct comparison. The “NYC Before and After” Instagram page shares cool pics of how New York City has looked in the past and how it looks now. More info: Instagram Looking southwest down Henry St from Market St in Two Bridges, Manhattan. Off in the distance of the old photo loom one of the most iconic fixtures in the history of New York City’s skyline: the Twin Towers....

Do you know that feeling when you have a collection of awesome pictures ready for Instagram, and the only things missing are some downright good Instagram captions? It can be a real headache to decide whether it should be a positive quote or just a cute caption to fill up the space. Or perhaps you want to study them and learn how to make your own clever captions? Picking out a caption from endless lists or coming up with it on your own might be a difficult task....

There’s a special place in h**l reserved for villains disguised as lovely, sweet ladies. And it would seem that particular place is getting fuller by the day. There’ve been a flood of stories recently about mothers-in-law behaving badly. Many can be found in a naughty corner of the internet aptly called JUST NO MIL. The online community is somewhat of a virtual support group for anyone dealing with nasty, cruel, toxic, entitled or downright monstrous mothers-in-laws /moms....

Have you ever wondered what Europe looked like before or during the Second World War (WWII)? Take a look at our “before and after” or “then and now” images and see what the war did to the people, the monuments and the landscapes. Head over to our site for an interactive version of each image and many, many more! More info: re.photos Burning Peterhof Palace after the Nazi invasion. 1941 September....

Learning “how the sausage is made” is one of those classic parts of growing up and getting a job that still even applies if we take it literally . Generally, your workplace will frown on you giving out “secrets” that make them look bad, but if you don’t work there anymore (and any NDA’s have expired) then it’s fair game. 99% of Black Friday deals are not in fact Black Friday deals....

There are a few popular sayings about this, but I like the line from Ridley Scott’s American Gangster (2007), where Denzel Washington’s character Frank Lucas explains, “The loudest one in the room is the weakest one in the room.” And to really drive the point home, we can take a look at a thread on Reddit , asking men to share the most pathetic or ridiculous things another guy has done in an attempt to assert dominance over them....

It’s impossible to miss the “true crime” category while looking for your next podcast obsession. True crime podcasts are everywhere, trying to keep you on the edge of your seat while you’re on the subway, in the car, or at work. They’re like an addiction for people who love murder mysteries. These shows are more than just entertainment, though. They’re also a way for people to learn about the criminal justice system and how it works (or doesn’t)....

Weaponized incompetence is a phenomenon when someone knowingly or unknowingly demonstrates an inability to perform certain tasks, thereby forcing others to take on more responsibilities. It generally occurs in two domains—at work, between colleagues, or at home, between partners. This time, we’re going to focus on the latter. Whether it’s doing the dishes, folding the laundry, or taking out the trash, you can find plenty of women online who are sharing everyday situations that leave them picking up the slack....

Talented artist Lee John Phillips has undertaken a project of epic proportions to celebrate the memory of his late grandfather. Phillips estimates that it will take him about 4-5 years to draw all 100,000+ items left behind in the shed by his grandfather, who passed away roughly 20 years ago. Everything from large tools to jars full of nails, nuts and bolts will be covered! Phillips has been numbering each object in his meticulous project, and has drawn nearly 4,000 at this point....

This cutie and her beast are the adorable three-year-old Siena and “Buddha,” her two-year-old Doberman. The unusual couple have been gaining popularity on social media through the photos of their antics, and because many consider a Doberman to be an unusual companion for a little girl. “Dobermans are also known as ‘Velcro dogs’,” Tara Prucha, Siena’s mother, told Today. “They just want to be with their one human. And he has obviously chosen my daughter....

Bryan Ware, an inventive dad in San Francisco, has come up with a brilliant way to reuse leftover crayons that get thrown out by restaurants and schools – he melts them down and recycles them into new crayons for children at hospitals. He came up with the idea in 2011 when celebrating his birthday at a restaurant. His waiter had brought his two sons some crayons, and he wondered where the crayons go after they’re done with them....

In ancient times, a popular plot was known when an evil stepmother charmed, for example, an old king, and then, having gained complete power in the kingdom, began to oppress his offspring. Usually, a princess played this role, but here the stepmom happened to face, let’s call it, the “crown prince.” This story is, well, quite long, but at the same time very instructive and exciting. Personally, I sooner or later expected the author to finally lose his temper and lash out at his evil stepmom – but I am really glad that reality turned out to be more indicative....

There are thousands of “follow your dreams” success stories out there. So much, in fact, that it has become a bit of a cliché in today’s world. However, despite some people being skeptical about many of them as they often involve some form of change, risk, or discomfort, it doesn’t negate the fact that they happen and that people are better off as a result. A tattoo artist and avid anime fan, inkbypnut on Twitter , recently decided to sell his entire anime collection to finance his anime tattoo shop....

This story comes from a single and childfree 37-year-old man who is a dad to two dogs that are German Shepherd mixes. Since the author has four sisters with ten kids in total, you can suspect he gets to babysit every now and then. In fact, “I babysit A LOT,” Dogloverforeverr wrote in a post on AITA . “I have just one super strict rule at my house: no chocolate,” he said and added that not only is it ‘deadly for dogs,’ but he doesn’t ‘like it anyway’....

A friend of mine became a DMV examiner about a year ago. He told me many funny things he encountered at his job. Though my career as a designer is fun but sometimes when you hear what others go through on a workday that is different than yours, it can be even more amusing. I drew the stories he told me. I hope you enjoy this post. Thank you. Anyone can write on Bored Panda....

My name is Maija Astikainen and I’m a photographer from Helsinki, Finland. I’ve been photographing pet dogs for several years for my project ‘One-Dog Policy’. I’m interested in the way we think of pets as something in between human and animal, and started exploring that in my photography project. Pets are often humanized, treated as family members and “furry babies”. Simultaneously they represent fragments of wild nature in our homes, and humanlike creatures just like us....

James Van Der Beek moved his fans to tears after sharing how he navigated one of the most difficult conversations a parent can face—telling his children he has cancer. The 48-year-old Dawson’s Creek star appeared on the Today show yesterday (July 30), where he recounted informing his six children of his stage 3 colorectal cancer diagnosis . Van Der Beek first revealed his condition publicly in November 2024, months after initially receiving the news himself....
