Women, the reason you can have a credit card in your own name and don’t need a man’s signature to open a bank account is because of Gloria Steinem. RIP to this queen.

To anyone who was in the big crowd at Charing Cross station in London around 12/1am yesterday (NYE) who pushed, shoved, shouted and or did any similar actions, I mean this in the kindest way. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck YOU.

We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran. Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

2. I feel like in the wake of all of Justin Bieber's 2010s controversies, people always forget this bonkers one that occurred when Justin Bieber visitedthe Anne Frank House in Amsterdam in 2013. Before leaving, he wrote in the guest book: "Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber."
