It’s not controversial to say that boobs are really, really great. The biological function of breasts work to keep babies fed, of course, but somewhere along the way, boobs have become so much more. For better or for worse, our boobs are a part of us — and we’re not afraid to wear our love for them on our sleeve (or, rather, or chest). Maybe you’re thinking that breasts are breasts are breasts....

From diet and exercise to making time for self-care and relaxation, you might be taking steps to make your health a priority. But are you forgetting about your brain? According to a poll conducted by Neuriva and The Harris Poll, nearly all Americans — 89 percent of them, to be exact — would like to improve some aspect of their brain performance. It’s never too early (or too late) to start living a brain-healthy lifestyle....

Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell’s daughter, Grace Warrior, is such a cute baby — have you seen her 10-month-old photo shoot? Adorable! — and is already having a blast playing with animals at the Australia Zoo. She may not have celebrated her first birthday yet, but she is already showing off one more special trait: her resemblance to her famous grandpa, the late “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight Wednesday, Bindi and her mom, Terri Irwin, shared how the sweet little girl reminds them of Steve, who died in 2006....

You can already get a home COVID test, a giant container of condoms and a pretty sweet percussion massager on your next Costco run, but the bulk retailer’s health and wellness benefits are going to have an even greater impact once Costco pharmacies are clear to administer COVID-19 vaccines. Per a statement on Saturday, February 20, from Costco: “Costco is firmly committed to helping protect the health and safety of our members and employees, and to serving our communities....

Ethical non-monogamy has gained more visibility in the modern dating scene, but there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding what the heck that even means. Many people who are curious about consensual non-monogamy — and those who are actively considering a test run — still have only a vague idea of the essential principles. While a key tenet is freedom to explore and have affection with different people, there’s a lot behind the scenes that make these relationships successful....

Most of us don’t get to the spa as often as we’d like, so that means we have to make our own bathrooms feel as luxurious as possible. And with the right products, you totally can (and you just might not miss going to the spa as much either). We’re sure you’re stocked up on night creams and towels, but there’s one key beauty tool your routine is missing to transform your space into a spa-like sanctuary....

Happy National Handwriting Day, everyone! Or rather, unhappy and hotly controversial handwriting day? That would honestly be more accurate. Because, for one thing, isn’t teaching handwriting somewhat antiquated? It sure hasn’t been especially popular in recent years with its exclusion from Common Core in public schools, and with so many kids learning to “write” on iPads and tablets well before they can pen a sentence. So why are any schools even teaching cursive — and should they bother?...

A day after John Legend tore out all of our hearts with his “Never Break” dedication to wife Chrissy Teigen at the Billboard Music Awards, he did it again with beautiful words for her on Instagram. We don’t often see fathers openly mourn pregnancy loss the way he does in this message, and it’s just one more way this family is making others feel like it’s OK to grieve. “This is for Chrissy,” Legend begins the post, accompanying a video of his performance at the BBMAs on Wednesday night....

While Prince Harry has returned to the UK on multiple occasions since formally stepping away from his role in the royal family in Jan. 2020, his wife Meghan Markle has never made the trip with him — until now. Multiple sources, including a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have confirmed that Harry and Meghan just made a joint stop in London on a personal visit to a woman close to both their hearts: Queen Elizabeth II herself....

Weddings are momentous occasions, and as such, there’s a particular etiquette that guests are expected to follow while in attendance. For example: don’t wear white attire, sit quietly through the ceremony no matter how long it is, and politely eat whatever food is served, because it likely cost the bride and groom a pretty penny per plate. According to Reddit, one mom and her son recently had some trouble with that last rule....

Update: On Wednesday, March 18, Arielle Charnas shared with her fans that after undergoing testing earlier this week she has indeed tested positive for COVID-19. She shared a list of her symptoms on Instagram and told her followers that she’s self-quarantined and resting, along with her husband (who is also feeling sick) and her two daughters (who are not showing any symptoms). But perhaps most importantly, Charnas (finally) acknowledged the immense privilege of being able to get tested for the novel coronavirus in the first place, and the fact that so many people who may be infected simply do not have access to testing or care....

Teenagers are incredibly busy people. For them, life is a never-ending cycle of excitement, activity and emotion. And really, why shouldn’t it be? There are activities worth trying, relationships worth forming, and opportunities worth seizing. Life is theirs to embrace. Even now — as so many of us spend our days inside our homes — the bustle of teenage life hasn’t slowed. Amidst all the banana bread recipes and TikTok dance videos, it can be hard to find a spare moment....
