It is easy to become a backseat parent, especially when the parent in question is a social media influencer. Content creator and dad Jordan Driskell recently faced a wave of varying opinions about his parenting methods after posting a video that showed him walking his 5-year-old quintuplets on a leash. The original post was captioned: “Come walk a mile in my shoes,” and it quickly went viral, garnering over 3 million views and more than 7,200 comments. Jordan – who has posted videos to TikTok oddly referring to his kids as “pet sperm” – mentioned in a follow-up post that this is his most popular video ever, thanking people for “blowing it up.” Most of the comments, however, were not kind. Many compared the children to dogs. One user asked: “Are they rescues?” Another bl...

Jae-lynn Chaney, a prominent plus-size travel influencer, is taking a stand against discriminatory airline policies that force larger passengers to pay double for their travel experience. Through her activism and petitioning efforts, Chaney is urging airlines to implement comprehensive customer-of-size policies that prioritize the comfort and well-being of all passengers. Chaney’s advocacy stems from her personal experiences of facing discrimination and challenges while flying due to her size. She highlights the unfairness of having to pay two fares for the same travel experience that smaller-bodied individuals receive for one fare. Despite acknowledging that changing these policies may lead to increased ticket prices for all passengers, Chaney emphasizes the importance of addressin...

It’s truly unbelievable how cruel some people can be to dogs. A sweet pup named Riona suffered as much as anybody after being brutally set on fire by her owner last year. But almost exactly a year after that horrific incident, Riona is finally going to her new home. Last June, residents in Nutbush, Tennessee witnessed a shocking site as Riona, a pitbull mix, ran down the street engulfed in flames. The smell of gas made it clear that she had been intentionally set on fire. “All you could smell was gas,” Mallory Mclemore of Bluff City Veterinary Specialists told Memphis Commercial Appeal. “She was burnt and covered in diesel fuel… It confirmed she was set on fire via witness statements,” Ginger Natoli, founder of the Tails of Hope Dog Rescue, told Newsweek. “We have obtai...

Written by Alex North and Hy Zaret in 1955, this song is one of the most iconic ever, with its influence spanning decades. Originally performed by Todd Duncan, it has since been covered by over 670 artists in different languages, but The Righteous Brothers’ 1965 version brought it lasting fame. Their rendition is often considered the definitive version, with its soaring vocals and emotional depth capturing listeners around the world. The song’s emotional intensity, highlighted by its powerful high notes, continues to resonate with listeners. On a video of the song, which has reached 76 million views, one fan even commented: “I swear I can feel the chills going up and down my back when he hits those high notes. I feel like crying knowing that this amazing man is gone.” In...

No ego. No self-indulgent ornamentation. No nonsense. Meat Loaf’s performance of the National Anthem at the 1994 All-Star Game is arguably the best rendition ever. There are countless classic renditions of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” For me, Chris Stapleton’s heartfelt performance at Super Bowl 2023 stands out among the best. But I find it hard to argue against those who believe that the legendary Meat Loaf, with his iconic version of the national anthem at the 1994 All-Star Game in Pittsburgh, is truly the best of all time. Accompanied by the Penn State ROTC Color Guard, Meat Loaf’s performance in 1994 was no coincidence. Dressed in a rainbow brocade vest The rock ’n’ roll star, who had a major resurgence in the ’90s, was hotter than a microwave that year. Thanks to an album...
