Everyone has their own coping mechanism for when things get rough, but there's one surefire way to make anyone feel about 90% better: show them pictures of adorable animals. The power of painfully cute animal pictures is not to be underestimated. Don't believe me? Check out the latest photos from r/aww right now and tell me that your heart doesn't feel lighter and there's not a smile on your face. I dare you. And for good measure, have a look at last week's photos too. 

Another week, another Sunday, and this one is especially full of cheer! Christmas just happened, new years is approaching, and to help you get into the joyous spirit even more, for this week's tumble treat, we've collected for you some purrfectly hilarious cat posts. 

We know no better way to celebrate the tail-end of the year and start the week on the right paw than with some hiss-terical cats. And tumblr cat hilarity is just extra special in its own tumblr way. Because tumblr users love cats almost as much as the users on this website do, and that really means something.

So, enjoy the week, friends. We hope you had an amazing Christmas and that you'll have a happy new year!

This guy tells the story of how he managed to keep a cool temper (thanks to his wife), and go on to outsmart what was arguably his worst customer of all time. Fair to say that this choosing beggar got so destroyed by this pro revenge that there's no way he'll think about trying his scam on someone else anytime soon!

When Homer Simpson said "It's funny cause it's true," he created an entire gene of comedy and memes. It's the most relatable kind of meme because, well, we can all relate to something being true. Here are the latest memes and pics from r/technicallythetruth, where all the funniest and truest memes live. Have a look at last week's memes for more laughs. 

It's time to meet twitter's coolest gang of good boys and girls - The Golden Ratio! 

They are an ever-expanding group of golden retrievers (+ 1 Labradoodle) who will steal your heart in one second. They are floofy, they're best friends, they love cuddles, and they're so cool they even have their own fandom, which we have definitely joined. "The dogs are famous for their affinity for waffles and carrots, and can be identified by their allegiance to treat types," as their fandom page says, and there are so many of them, they're even divided into their own mini-gangs - teams Cronch, Roasty, Chaos, Foreign Object, and team Theif for the bad boys in the group. 

Their owners love them and spoil them to no end, and we love to see it. So, come fall in love with us. We promise, this is one gang that you'll definitely want to join. 

This new manager did their part to break the cycle of homelessness and help out the guy camped out behind their restaurant by giving him a job. Reminds us of this donut shop manager who handled a customer's angry review. Here are some wholesome memes to go with the theme of people helping each other out.

The four day weekend that many people have for Christmas is the perfect time to binge-watch The Lord of the Rings trilogy. That is, if you haven't used lockdowns and quarantines to do that several times already. For the rare breed that's exhausted their binge-watching abilities, we offer this sizeable collection of hilarious and mostly-fresh Lord of the Rings memes. They're the perfect compromise for fans of all things Tolkien - and will help keep you from burning out until the next marathon viewing of your favorite movies. 

As with everything in life, relationships come with risks. Sure, you could fall desperately in love, get married, and live happily ever after. I mean, that's the dream, right? Alternatively, you could fall for someone, and just as you finally feel secure, they dump you in a soul-crushing, heart-wrenching act of cruelty, causing you to lose all faith and hope in love. It's a real gamble. And the truth is, being dumped suck. It can bruise your ego, make you feel rejected, and question whether or not what you had was real for the other person. But some dumpings are more brutal than others, and these Redditers are sharing the harshest reasons their exes ended their relationship. What's the worst reason someone broke up with you? Or that you dumped someone?

We all know kangaroos as bouncing Australian creatures that carry around their joeys in pouches, but they've never been considered particularly intelligent. That is, until a recent study showed that they might be a lot more intelligent than previously thought. 

Well, according to Imgur user, daianaaaa, this beautiful senior kitty adopted her, not the other way around. And sometimes, it is the pets who decide who their human will be, and when you've been chosen, it's the best feeling in the world. To be chosen is an honor. 

Daianaaaa was chosen by Molly. A 20-year-old stray who also happens to be blind. Our hearts feel so warm knowing there are people out there who see older animals in need of some love and providing it for them. 

If you're considering getting a pet, please consider adopting instead of shopping. The animals know you've rescued them, they just do and you can feel their gratefulness for it. 

Thank you, daianaaaa, for giving Molly a loving forever home! 

In an effort to try to recognize everything at a glance, eyes sometimes throw information at us that doesn't exactly make sense. Strange perspective can give us things that shouldn't exist, for instance, a valley inside of a fence post, or a cat with a human butt.

The Jewish tradition of eating Chinese food on Christmas is well-documented in the media, but have you ever wondered how that started? Well, it's a lot more than a trope. Twitter user @kehillahjewess composed a brilliant thread to demystify the holiday ritual on Christmas Eve, and the historical roots are pretty damn fascinating. Turns out the stereotype goes way deeper than the simple fact that Chinese restaurants are some of the only businesses open on the Christian holiday.
