Mental-health tip: you can use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapies to improve your mental well-being. You don't need a professional therapist for this. Many of us struggle with mental health issues. Some of us may really need to see psychologists or psychiatrists or require medication, but most of us don't.

The rich, faced with no alternatives and the threat of starvation, reluctantly set aside their pride. They often ate popcorn secretly at night to avoid being seen consuming what was considered a poor man's food. This dynamic led to popcorn's popularity in theaters, where darkness provided the anonymity for people... 1 0 replies
