Saying that a celebrity «doesn’t age» goes beyond praising someone for their looks.

Pets love the darndest things.

17-year-old Taylor Swift stan claims they are terrified of Sabrina Carpenter’s dancing: ‘You guys are disgusting and weird for defending a literal weirdo’

Stan Twitter is such a funny place to spend your teenage years. It can be a good outlet for teens with nowhere else to scream about how Nicki Minaj outsold Cardi, but it can also take over their lives if they’re not too careful. I was able to balance being on RuPaul’s Drag Race stan …

Woman finds a lost cat with a collar, owner says they moved away 5 years ago and to do with the cat as they please: ‘I’m pretty sure we used to have a cat named Ginger back when I lived with my parents’

How could you forget a pet? Every single pet I have ever had has been etched into my mind, never to be forgotten. Pets are family members if you’re doing it right, and they shouldn’t be left outside to roam all day without supervision, with nobody caring whether they live or die. A recent viral …

It’s so lame when you do your job to the best of your ability, go above and beyond for customers, and after all that, they still don’t appreciate your services. It’s one thing to do a mediocre job and get called out for it, but when you grind and grind and objectively succeed, it’s so …
