Do you ever feel like you’re always in a rush, constantly getting things done at the latest possible time? It could be paying a bill, cleaning our home or even recording a podcast! Well you’re certainly not alone in that respect. According to Deacon Joseph Ferrari, who specialises in the area, 20% of us are chronic procrastinators.

And a 2020 survey by Micro Biz Mag found that just 15.6% of people say they never procrastinate. So it’s something that affects almost all of us from time to time. And of course it can be a cause of stress and anxiety when we actually get around to doing whatever it is we’ve been putting off. So let’s discuss some ways of beating that pesky habit! 

Why do we procrastinate anyway? If we’re hardwired like that, does it mean that it's impossible to stop procrastinating? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

In recent years, dating has become a lot more structured. Terms like "green flags" and "red flags" are now part of everyday language, and the criteria for evaluating potential partners have become more specific and defined.

Of course, the main idea behind these colour codes is to help you figure out if someone is right for you based on how they behave. But lately even the flag system has become a little less straightforward, with the introduction of "beige flags" and "yellow flags". Now beige flags refer to boring or insignificant traits, while yellow flags can have a more meaningful impact on a relationship.

Are they good or bad? What are some examples? How do yellow flags differ from red flags? Why is she considered a pop culture icon? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

We spend a lot of time in bed, and there’s nothing better than snuggling up in fresh, clean sheets. But not everyone seems to share the same standards when it comes to hygiene.

A survey commissioned by Pizuna Linens, involving over 2,000 people in the UK, found that 45% of single men wait up to four months before washing their sheets—while a shocking 12% admitted to only doing it when they remembered! In contrast, 62% of single women wash their sheets every two weeks, but even that falls short of expert recommendations. To maintain good hygiene, specialists advise washing your sheets at least once a week.

But why is it so important to wash them frequently? And what’s the best way to do it? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

If you were a WWE fan in the 2000s, a mere mention of the name Dave Bautista is likely to get you feeling all nostalgic. During his wrestling career, Bautista became well known for his muscular build.

And even after quitting the WWE, he stayed in the spotlight, going into acting and being recognised as the “best wrestler-turned-actor” out there, according to the likes of ScreenRant, AVclub.com and a prominent Reddit thread with over 1800 comments. After he put a lot of weight on for a role in Knock at the Cabin in 2023, fans were shocked to see him looking super slim at the premiere of The Last Showgirl at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2024.

Do actors often go to such extremes to lose weight for roles? Do actors sometimes go in the opposite direction and gain weight for a role? What about female actors? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Cellulite is a regular source of insecurity among women. That’s been especially true since women’s magazines came along, pretty much labelling it public enemy number one. In our collective minds, it’s become inextricably linked to being overweight or having gone through pregnancy.

In reality, cellulite is the result of a number of factors, and hormonal changes in particular. The first thing to know is that there are actually three types of cellulite: aqueous cellulite which is flexible and slightly visible; adipose cellulite, which is soft and limited to a certain part of the body, and fibrous cellulite, which is hard and painful to the touch, sometimes coming with a purplish-blue colour.

What do those three types have in common? Can cellulite have negative health consequences? So what techniques are out there for getting rid of cellulite? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
