Look, adulting is hard but, at some point, you have to grow up and get on with it. Doesn’t mean you can’t keep the playful kid inside you alive, just do your laundry at least once a week, wash the dishes so you don’t get roaches, and, if you have kids, keep them alive. One woman turned to an online community to vent after she finally decided to match her manchild husband’s lack of effort around the house, only to have him explode at her for it....

When we tie the knot, we agree to stand by our partner “for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health.” But if the wedding hasn’t actually happened yet, there’s still time to back out, right? Well, that’s what one woman’s family believes. A happily engaged man recently posted a story on Reddit detailing how his fiancé’s family expected her to simply leave him after he broke his leg....

Whether you’re those high school sweethearts who’ve been together for what seems like an eternity, a couple with kids, or someone who’s been in a relationship for only a few months – breakups are never easy. When there’re no obligations involved, it can be hard to accept the idea that you’re now going to have to build a new life; yet you know that sooner or later, you’ll be able to concentrate on your “grief” and focus on your own happiness to help yourself move on....

Losing your loved one is one of the most painful things to experience – whether it’s sudden or known. It seems like your life is falling apart and you will be alone for the rest of your life. However, it’s no surprise that even after the most heartbreaking experience, people move on and step back into the world and start dating. And while it’s totally normal to want to move on after the passing of your partner, it’s also important to be empathetic and not act like this Reddit user’s husband....

I like my dog and all, but Tonkey’s rise to fame has got me wondering what she’s got, that I don’t. 8 weeks ago I created Tonkey her own Instagram account for the sole purpose of making friends myself. The way it was supposed to go down: post photo of cute dog, cute dog attracts good-looking friends, good-looking friends want to hang out with me. But I’ve created a monster— like Victor to Frankenstein— and now Frankenstein’s famous, leaving her creator alone in the shadows....

2,207,520,000 seconds in an average lifetime. Each second may be a special moment in the making, yet most of the time, our minds aren’t set up in seconds but rather minutes and hours. The next 5 minutes, the next 5 hours, the next 5 years. Like an addictive series being binged, the question persists – what’s coming next? Once you have it, what then? What’s next? But that constant dance between the natural progression of time and the time-traveling capabilities of our brains make it really difficult to stop and give into the state of ‘being’ – releasing all that’s been and shall be....

Life changes as you age (and, hopefully, even mature ) and you’ve got to learn to adapt. Roll with the punches, try not to cling to your past lifestyle too hard, and instead focus on the things that really matter in life. You’ve got to do what makes you happy and not care about what everyone who isn’t a loved one thinks so much. Easier said than done, right? Yours truly turned 30 recently, and all things considered, I’m okay with that....

Graphite or “black lead” is Đorđević’s material of choice, “since it is hard and fragile at the same time....

The world is full of surprises. Anyone can find something to marvel about but let’s admit that one thing rarely misses the eye. And of course, it’s cute fluffy animal babies. You may ask where’s the surprise in that. Well, no matter how cliched it may sound, it sure is a surprise when something like a puppy falls down from the sky. That’s exactly what happened with this cute furball in rural Australia....

Abby Lee and Matt Kay are a young Australian couple who have the same problem with their parents as everyone else: they won’t stop rushing them to have babies! So, the moment they added one more to the family, Matt and Abby celebrated it with a newborn photoshoot… that wasn’t exactly what their parents were expecting!

When we have an emergency on our hands, when our lives or the lives of our friends and family are in danger, we’ve been drilled to call 911 (or another emergency number if you’re living outside the United States).

We’re Rafał and Aleksandra, a couple who travel by bikes to hardly accessible locations and take pictures of landscapes, different cultural traditions and different ways of life. For our last trip we chose Georgia – a remote, unknown and visually amazing country. On June, we set off on a journey around Svaneti Region. We traveled through the high Caucasus Mountains, avoiding huge cities as much as we could. We started the trip in Jvari and our main goal was to reach Ushguli, located at the foot of Shkhara, the highest inhabited village in Europe....
