Who doesn’t love a good man-befriends-animal story?
This one about Henry the Blue Jay will tug at your heartstrings.
Posted to Twitter by planetary astronomer Alex Parker, the story of the bird’s transformation from scruffy little bird to grasshopper-catching virtuoso, is an interspecies friendship story for the ages.

Millennials are blamed for ruining almost everything these days. They’re held responsible for messing with the diamond industry, department stores, and even the U.Seconomy, according to various media outlets. Now they’ve been accused of coming for the classroom.
A recent article from the Times Higher Education written by an anonymous assistant professor accuses millennials of being unwilling “take responsibility” for their education.

An op-ed published by the San Diego Union-Tribune calling dogs “parasites” is getting a pretty bad reaction online. That’s probably because it’s a terrible take.
The first half of Chris Reed’s editorial — titled “Let’s be honest America: Dogs are parasites, not man’s best friend” — suggests that humans have doted on their dogs a little too aggressively. A fair point. The doggy spa services he references in the piece are probably wasted on our canine companions.
But then the piece takes a dark turn. Dogs, Reed argues, are “parasites” conning humans into feeding and caring for them with their adorable antics. To make this incorrect point, Reed references Stephen Budiansky’s 1999 Atlantic article “The Truth About Dogs,” which argues that various canine manipulation tactics are to blame for our love of these furry deadbeats.

The wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was a beautiful spectacle all around, but one aerial shot of the newlyweds making the rounds on social media was particularly stirring. The photo, from the Sunday Times Twitter account, went viral online, and Press Association photographer Yui Mok shared more about how it came to be.

There are two types of people in this world: those who live at inbox zero, and those whose inboxes are ruled by utter chaos.
People are sharing screenshots of their unread emails on Twitter and they’ll either fill you with horror, or make you say “same.”
Some people’s inboxes are so chaotic, they’re nearing the 100K unread email mark. Quite the achievement, tbqh.

Like Marvel superheroes, women are all power, all the time, and can seriously obliterate a pair of shoulder pads.
Looking for an “afternoon pick-me-up,” MTV’s chief TV critic Inkoo Kang called out on Twitter for photos of women in suits on Tuesday, paired with a “gang’s all here” image of the kickass women of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Kang wrote she was inspired by Thor: Ragnarok actor Tessa Thompson’s “boxy plaid.”
