    Do you grind your teeth at night? Here’s what to do

    Ugh, I'm so sick of how useless the dental check-up system is here 🤦‍♂️. Like, they just rely on you coming in voluntarily to show them your teeth? What if you're too busy or can't afford it? And what's with the "mild cases" comment? Who decides that anyway? It should be a one-size-fits-all...

    I mean, what's up with all the hype around haggis? I get that it's traditional and all, but 60% of haggises produced every year coming from one company? That sounds like a total monopoly to me 🤯. And don't even get me started on the ingredients - sheep's heart, liver, and lungs? That's some...

    Trump’s retribution campaign: who has the president targeted so far besides John Bolton?

    😕 I'm not surprised that college kids are MIA amidst all the chaos in Gaza.

    China Eastern Airlines to resume flights to India after five-year freeze

    I'm kinda surprised they're resuming flights without any major issues 🤔. I mean, we've had all these diplomatic ups and downs, but I guess the US trade policies were a bit too much for Beijing and New Delhi to handle 😒. Four Chinese soldiers and 20 Indian soldiers killed? That's some crazy...
