A pair of beaded fan pull extenders with some big "why isn't everyone talking about this?" energy. You'll never have to guess whether you're pulling the cord for the light or the fan! These also add a good foot of length to your pulls, which is super helpful for the shorties out there.
A truly clever neck reading light bookworms will praise until the end of time for its sheer wisdom. You'll be able to read in the dark without straining your eyeballs or committing to the awfully bright big light.

Gen Z's latest obsession — coming out as ‘graysexual': What it means, and how they're discovering they're ‘gray'
They're not gay — they're 'gray.' A surprising number of people are choosing to identify as 'graysexual,' with many now sharing the moment they realized they were 'gray.' Graysexuality exists in what many describe as a 'gray area' between being allosexual – experiencing regular sexual attraction — and asexual — experiencing none. Those who identify as graysexual may feel sexual attraction rarely, inconsistently, or only under specific circumstances. Reddit users are posting in the r/Graysexuality subreddit — a growing online community of over 8,300 members — about their experiences dating and being intimate. 3 On platforms like TikTok and YouTube, videos exploring the term are gaining thousands of views. georgerudy – In one post, user @The_Archer2121 explained that they had spent much of their life assuming they were just a 'late bloomer.' Crushes came 'decades apart,' rarely lasted long, and they often didn't feel sexual attraction — even to their own boyfriend. As Dan Beeson, a graysexual man from London, told Cosmopolitan UK, 'Graysexual… is not 'I just don't fancy it tonight'. For me, it's being completely devoid of sexual desire in bouts, which can last months, and then one day waking up and realising that instinct has returned.' 'I'd been aware my drive for sex wasn't as regular as others, but I just put it down to my own relationship with sex. That may still be true, but finding out others were having similar feelings and there was at least a community of some number of us was reassuring,' he added. 3 It's not the same as simply not being 'in the mood,' and it's not a phase. lordn – Others online chimed in with similar stories. One user said they only ever felt 'true' sexual attraction once in their life, explaining, 'When I see someone attractive, I don't have that 'I'd hit that' internal feeling. I just want to be near them.' Another recalled being pressured to experiment with sex in college, confused about why their peers seemed to experience desire so intensely and frequently. 'Ended up getting married (not a good life choice), and things didn't go well in the sexual department.' 'I was constantly ridiculed and pressured into doing things that I didn't want to do.' That mismatch in sexual expectations eventually led the person to discover graysexuality through online communities. One person wrote that their attraction would 'turn on' only every few months, making them flip-flop between identifying as allosexual and asexual, until they found graysexuality — and a sense of peace. Interest in graysexuality is growing rapidly — especially with Gen Z. On platforms like TikTok and YouTube, videos exploring the term are gaining thousands of views. Creators like podcaster Mark (@notdefining) have helped bring nuance to the identity, describing it as 'a bit of sexual attraction… but to a low degree.' Many assume that graysexual people don't want romantic relationships or are simply repressed. But as psychotherapist Jane Czyzselska explains, 'It can be hard in both queer and wider culture to confidently own a sexuality that acknowledges desire differently.' She encourages those exploring the label to reflect on what contexts spark or suppress desire, and to trust their own changing boundaries. 'No one should tell you who you should be or who you are,' she says. 3 Those who identify as graysexual may feel sexual attraction rarely, inconsistently, or only under specific circumstances. Koegelenberg Coop/ – The term graysexual first appeared on the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) in 2006 and has since become an important identity for those who never quite fit into the binary of sexual or asexual. Some people who identify as graysexual may also relate to terms like demisexual — sexual attraction only after a strong emotional bond — queer, or pansexual. As one Reddit user summed it up: 'I was so repressed in this regard out of pure confusion… It was such a relief to finally have a word for how I feel.' The rise of identities like graysexuality comes amid what researchers are calling a 'sex recession' — with younger generations reporting fewer sexual partners and less interest in sex overall. But rather than a simple lack of desire, experts like writer Carter Sherman argue it's more nuanced, involving social media pressure, body image issues, and political anxieties.

Hearts Break As Dog Keeps Sister's Collar Close All Day After Her Death
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When members of one family were forced to say goodbye to their beloved pocket bully Lucy, they weren't prepared for what their other dog, Reggie, would do next. In a video that has gained viral attention on TikTok, Reggie was captured walking slowly across the backyard patio, quietly carrying Lucy's collar in his mouth—something he did all day after her death. The caption read: "His sister just died and he walked around all morning with her collar." It wasn't long before the moment struck a chord with viewers, receiving more than 145,000 views and thousands of comments and reactions. "That's so sad but so lovely too," wrote one user. "And that's me sobbing while at work. Dogs are too precious for this world," added another. A third viewer commented: "Bless, just wants to feel safe so her collar is his safe thing." Shani77 said, "That's given me goose bumps," while viewer CB shared sympathy with the owners, too: "l hope you are doing good and l know how hard it is to miss a pet." Others offered their condolences. "Animals grieve too. Poor little angel," said one TikToker. Reggie the dog carries the collar in his mouth down the path. Reggie the dog carries the collar in his mouth down the path. @pippa7927/TikTok Do Dogs Feel Grief? While grief is often thought of as a human emotion, there is evidence that canines feel it, too. A 2022 study published in Scientific Reports surveyed 426 Italian dog owners who had lost one pup while another remained. The majority reported significant behavioral changes in the surviving dog, including reduced playfulness, altered sleep and eating habits, and increased clinginess or fearfulness. These shifts were especially pronounced when the canines had shared a close bond, regardless of how long they had lived together. The study also noted an emotional ripple effect: owners' own grief often correlated with shifts in their dogs' behavior, suggesting that emotional changes in their humans impacted canines, too. This isn't the first time a pup's heartbreak has prompted sympathy online. Earlier this year, a dog owner shared how her pet, Archer, still uses his friend Niko's bed months after he died. And a cat grieving for his canine friend was caught on camera looking at the picture of the family's 13-year-old German shepherd after his death.
