The Batman effect.
A female experimenter, appearing pregnant, boarded the train. In the experimental condition, an additional experimenter dressed as Batman entered from another door. Passengers were significantly more likely to offer their seat when Batman was present (67.21% vs. 37.66%).

It is a truth universally acknowledged that you should not get to the end of a 1300+ page 5th book in a series and be told there are four more still forthcoming.

Don't waste precious experience only to prove someone else wrong.

Probably a sign your team is not in great shape when your local broadcast is showing graphics like this.

This shit is legit and I don't care what anyone says
TikTok horse girl who competes in "hobbyhorsing" is slamming critics who tell her that riding a fake horse is not a real sport.
This may be the funniest thing I've seen all month.
The wood stick horse rider posted a video of herself panting and hyperventilating after performing her "dressage routine."
"'Hobbyhorsing is not a sport, it’s easy and everyone can do that' Oh yeah?" the girl said on
"This is me after my dressage routine… I was passing out, couldn’t breathe, almost throwing up, dizzy, shaking, whole body burning in pain."
