Dogs are slobbery balls of energy that are in a constant state of motion when they’re not being adorable on the couch or patiently begging for food. Sometimes though, they start being cute on the couch more than they should and pack on weight. We’re all prone to weight gain, but when it comes to … Read more
It’s only when you’ve been working the same job for a couple months that you start to realize what aspects you could improve on. Foot rests for under your desk and a wrist support at an office, a rechargeable thermos for those that work in tough conditions, and bike accessories for those with a commute. There’s … Read more
The more we learn about our own bodies, the more interesting our technology becomes. We still don’t know everything there is to know about the brain and the nervous system, but there’s plenty that we do have a pretty firm grasp of understanding on. Bone conduction has been a rising market for some time now, with headsets, earpieces, and even advertisements being played through glass on trains.
When you have to go the entire day with everything you need on your person, you know how important having a good bag is. Whether it’s a messenger bag with shoulder padding, a backpack with comfortable straps, or a purse that won’t cut into your shoulder, you’re going to use it enough to know quality when you wear it. The only problem with backpacks is that they’re meant to hold a lot, so we put a lot in them, weighing us down.
Have you ever smashed your hand with a hammer and then had someone ask you a stupid question? If you have, you now know what it’s like to be on your period around literally anyone. It’s not that women are crazy during that time of the month, they’re just in excruciating pain, feel like they’re bloated, and have munchies to an insane degree while still having to live life like nothing is happening. As one such being, I can attest this to be 100% fact, and there’s only so much you can do to deal with it.
There are a lot of sounds we are attuned to. We know when Twitter goes off, when a text comes in, and the faint sound of our ringtone in our pocket. However, those are just things in the digital world, as we also keep an ear out for car horns, people calling our name, birds chirping, and the other normal background noises of life. When we listen to music or watch a movie, we’re usually engrossed in the sounds that come from it, completely shielding our ears from the outside world.
There’s nothing better than having an outfit that not only looks put together, but is functional in every way imaginable. This might mean having a backup battery hiding in your pants, or a tomahawk tucked away in your wallet while still looking cute as button or rugged as a lumberjack. However, there are obvious differences when it comes to quality of the things you choose to wear.
When you carry a big bag, it’s hard not to stuff it full of things that aren’t a must-have during the day, but keep around anyway for just in case scenarios. Most days, you really just need your laptop, charger, and day planner, with space somewhere for your keys and wallet. However, finding a bag that … Read more
Keeping excess weight off is a lifelong battle. We run, lift weights, eat less and take supplements, but a few days of slipping can put us on the fast track to gaining weight again. You can’t take a pill and watch the pounds fall off, but there are a few methods to burn more calories while seemingly doing nothing. That sounds like it might be too good to be true, but a NASA scientist developed one of these methods, so there must be some validity to it, right?
If you’re alone at night, there’s always the fear that you’re going to be attacked when you least expect it. Not knowing any form of self-defense always heightens this fear, as you never know if you’ll be able to fend off an attacker should something actually happen. Having a taser or pepper spray is handy, but there’s a chance a sticky situation could become stickier very quickly with either of those items in the heat of the moment.
