Of the checkered but considerable assortment of powers in the American fraternity boy’s arsenal, goofiness is the best one by a long shot—and the Delta Sig bros at Transylvania University have made the best of their considerable goofiness to send 37 children from their local Big Brothers and Big Sisters to go see…
While human people are sleeping, my baby awakes. She whines and wriggles over to my listless body. Leading with her pale, swollen cheeks and newly cut teeth, she pounces on my chest. My flesh of my flesh uses her sharp talons to pull the wound on my breast into her mouth. Then, she sucks my blood.
That warm, fuzzy feeling I’m getting—is it asphyxiation at the hands of an art director or just my eyes rolling so far back in my head that all the blood vessels just pop?
Last Saturday, as part of an annual community event helping families get ready for the new school year, an Iowa barber gave free haircuts to kids in exchange for them reading him a story. What’s that? Something’s in your eye too? Crazy.
Golden State Warriors’ unofficial mascot Riley Curry, along with her parents Stephen and Ayesha, welcomed a new baby girl into the family on Friday. Here’s hoping the family’s real MVP will be able to share the spotlight.
The most adorable cast members of Black-ish met the most adorable cast members of Fresh Off the Boat and now I find myself wanting to take all of them home with me and watch them strike hip hop poses all day.
I clicked on a link promising photos of the new Gerber baby with my eye roll already beginning its exaggerated arc because—I don't know? I'm an asshole? I think it's weird that one baby's cuteness is held above all other babies' cuteness? But then the photo loaded and—good god, you guys. THIS FREAKING BABY.

Today, she's back in New York and a nominee for the American Humane Association's Hero Dog Awards. Cue…
Amy has been fighting cancer for the past year and a half. Unfortunately, according to the above video's description, it has become terminal. Her family doesn't know how much time they have left together, so to thank Amy for being an amazing force in their lives 50 of her closest friends and family members gathered…
The Sochi Olympics are over, but our love for baby-faced, puppy-rescuing skier Gus Kenworthy lives on. He recently stopped by Elle for an interview, but because he is the guy who took home the Sochi strays, he also did a video Q&A with several rambunctious (adoptable!) puppies at his feet. My favorite is the pit with…
The Office may have ended last spring, but Olivia, an 11-year-old from Portland, Oregon, is just catching up on all of the episodes now. The little viewer recently gave B.J. Novak (who acted and wrote on the show) a very nicely organized list of all the lessons she learned from the series and the whole thing is pretty…
Last week, American freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy won a silver medal in the slopestyle event at the Sochi Olympics. The following day, he won our hearts by announcing plans to adopt a family of stray puppies he found living near an Olympic media center. The next thing Gus Kenworthy should win? President. Because on…
A young man (who has chosen to stay anonymous) recently received a very concerned voicemail from his grandmother after she read about the disturbing treatment of gay people that's currently dominating news about Russia and the Olympic Games in Sochi. The grandson — who is gay — is about to go traveling and his bubbe…
After seeing his parents interact with a local Applebee's on Facebook, Chip Zdarky noticed that unlike Chili's, the prettiest girl in school with 12 billion likes, Applebee's was mostly talking to itself. Just like the lonely but very friendly kid you sometimes encounter in a middle school lunch room, Applebee's was…
Is there anything cuter than a baby Steve Zissou? How about a baby Luke Skywalker or a baby Tom Hanks in Castaway? No! There isn't! These are literally the cutest things anyone can think of!
It isn't often that Atlanta, Georgia sees a lot of snow, but that changed this holiday season for the kids of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, a pediatric hospital, where the staff arranged a special surprise snowfall for the patients on the evening of December 2nd.
The hunt for this year's best Halloween costumes is over, everyone. These two tiny children have taken the prize with their representation of Breaking Bad's Walter White (complete with a photoshopped goatee, hat and glasses) and Jesse Pinkman.
I very much enjoy making fun of Burning Man attendees. I did it last year. I did it before I worked at Jezebel, when I lived in the Bay Area (I pray all of you will one day experience the glory of a burner-free San Francisco weekend). I hope I live to do it again. There's just so much to work with, especially now that…
Here's a heartwarming compilation of parents finding out their children are happily pregnant. It's one big, beautiful circle of life, my friends. Adorable overpopulation, ahoy!
Chances are that we've reached peak Sophia Grace and Rosie, but I can't help it — I still find them pretty damn adorable. Ellen had them out interviewing celebrities on the the MTV Movie Awards red carpet this past Sunday and there were so many cute moments like when the girls met Ester Dean, the songwriter behind…
