In a famous episode of Sex and the City, Miranda chokes on Chinese food alone in her apartment for an agonizing 20 seconds—I counted each painful one—until she finally hurls her body over a box to eject the chunk of meat from her throat. Once she regains control of her airway, she calls Carrie (who screens the call because she’s stressing about Big). After she finally picks up, Miranda shouts, “I’m gonna die alone, Carrie!”

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

If you woke up one day to find that noise-triggered killer aliens have possessed the entire planet, you might think that the last thing you’d need is, say, a cat that might attract their attention. But for the main characters of A Quiet Place: Day One—the horror franchise prequel that hit movie theaters June 28—a service cat named Frodo is a big reason an unlikely duo can evade the extraterrestrial creatures.

Increasing state cigarette taxes has proven to be an effective policy to decrease smoking rates, and it appears that is also true in Kentucky. Nearly 30 percent of Kentucky adults smoked in 2011, two years after the legislature had doubled the cigarette tax to 60 cents a pack. Following a 50-cent increase to $1.10 in 2018, the state’s adult smoking rate fell to 17.4% in 2022, the last year for which a rate is available.

Aurora, CO

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears.
