During the tornado of media coverage for the new movie “Twisters,” released in the U.S. on July 19, all eyes have been on … Brisket. That’s right—the star of the promo tour doesn’t even have a cameo in the film, but the Papillon-looking mix served a crucial role while actor Glen Powell was shooting the movie in Oklahoma: best supporting mutt. Powell says he adopted then-puppy Brisket from animal rescue organization the Labelle Foundation in Los Angeles in July 2023. The adorable canine has seemingly been by his side ever since (and Brisket even has his own Instagram account, of…

Everyone and their moms (that is, if mom is on TikTok) have been drooling over the latest breakfast trend: Scrambled pancakes. This viral breakfast involves pouring pancake batter into a skillet, but instead of letting it form into a flapjack, you scramble it all up like you would eggs. The result is a plate of delicious pancake pieces that you drizzle syrup over and fork into—no knife required. While this TikTok trend seems like a pretty ingenious way to eat pancakes, it happens to be wildly similar to the original Austrian breakfast called Kaiserschmarrn. Both recipes look like the type…
New research from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shows that sealed bottles of tattoo and permanent makeup ink can contain millions of potentially dangerous bacteria—even those bottles that have been labeled “sterile.” If you’ve gotten a tattoo or permanent makeup recently, or are planning to, that’s a rightfully concerning thing to read. So should this new study make you rethink getting inked? “The presence of bacteria in tattoo and permanent makeup ink is indeed a cause for concern,” board-certified plastic surgeon Joel Kopelman, MD, FACS, tells Well+Good. “When these inks are contaminated, they pose a significant risk of…

I don’t know about you, but I love to round out a meal or snack with something fruity. While a bowl of pineapple chunks or cup of peach yogurt, for example, are definitely a couple of my staples, there’s great things to be said about switching it up. And where better to look for inspiration than your favorite childhood treats? That’s right: you can make some pretty healthy snacks with fruit using stuff like Fruit by the Foot, Gushers, and more as your blueprint. And you can make those fit better with your adult tastes and nutritional needs with a…

It happened again: you were out playing a casual game of pickleball with friends when that one person lost their temper over a missed point. They even hurled their racket across the court and nearly got you all kicked out—not to mention their shouting on the car ride home about how they “totally had it” and “could have hit the ball if you hadn’t been in the way.” Even if this exact scenario doesn’t sound familiar, it’s likely that you’ve known someone—or are someone—who consistently expresses themselves using aggressive communication. An intimidation tactic, aggressive communication can create discord among friends,…
