List of unusual deaths This is a list of unusual deaths. This list includes unique or extremely rare circumstances of death recorded throughout history, noted as being unusual by multiple sources. Some of the deaths are mythological or are considered to be unsubstantiated by contemporary researchers. Oxford Dictionaries defines the word "unusual" as "not habitually or commonly occurring or done" and "remarkable or interesting because different from or better than others."[1] Some other articles also cover deaths that might be considered unusual or ironic, including List of entertainers who died during a performance, List of inventors killed by their own inventions, List of association footballers who died while playing, List of professional cyclists who died during a race and the List of political self-immolations.

2011 Comic-Con Cosplay Winner: Lady Two-Face - My Modern Metropolis - StumbleUpon Out of all the cosplay costumes at this year's San Deigo Comic-Con, this one easily takes the cake.

Her name is Meagan Marie and according to her website, she works at Crystal Dynamics by day, reads comics at night, and runs around in costumes on the weekend. Photo credit: R.Sanque

This Comic Reveals the Hidden Struggles of Living with Invisible Disabilities Originally published on Empathize This and republished here with their permission. Editor’s Note: The text below the comic was submitted by a reader to the original publisher. The author uses the term “female-bodied,” which doesn’t reflect our preferred language, as the term implies that a female body is made up of particular parts. The unspoken struggles and stigma of living with invisible disabilities come out from the shadows. With Love, The Editors at Everyday Feminism I am 31 and female-bodied. On bad days, they all collide – I struggle not to feel angry (or at least not to show it), I feel like I’m in a fog, and my joints are so stiff I can’t get up without someone picking me up off the ground. No one wants to believe that a woman who looks like she’s barely old enough for college – just a girl, just a girl – has chronic and recurring pain. And I can’t show that irritability, because then I’m being unreasonable, I’m being a hysterical female, I’m wrong, wrong, wrong. Panel 1 Panel 2

Problem Gambling 35 תמונות חריפות שמדגימות איך הסמארטפונים השתלטו לנו על החיים מאז נכנסו הטלפונים החכמים לחיינו לפני קצת פחות מעשור, אפשר לומר שהחיים של כולנו השתנו. הסמארטפונים שינו לחלוטין את פני התקשורת וזמינות המידע כפי שהכרנו אותם, אבל גם יצרו משוואה מאוד פשוטה: ככל שהם הולכים ונהיים חכמים יותר, אנחנו, הבעלים שלהם, הולכים ונהיים טיפשים יותר. הטרייד אוף המשונה הזה נשמע קצת קיצוני, אבל בפועל, כבר היום, 8 שנים אחרי לידתו של האייפון הראשון, אפשר לראות את ההשלכות הברורות של מכשירי הקסם הללו על הצורה בה אנחנו חיים, מתנהלים ובעיקר – מתקשרים אחד עם השני כשהמגמה היא ברורה: הרבה פחות דיבורים ותקשורת ישירה עם בני אדם, הרבה יותר טקסים, סמיילים, משחקים, תמונות וסרטונים. סדרת התמונות והקריקטורות המעולה הבאה, מציגה עם המון סרקזם ועוקצנות את פניו החדשות של הדור שלנו, דור בו השיחה הפרונטלית מתה בשיבה טובה בלי שאפילו נערכה לה הלוויה ראויה, דור של מאות מיליוני בני אדם שהפעמים היחידות בהן הרימו את ראשם מהטלפון והביטו ישירות בעיניהם של החברים ובני המשפחה שלהם או התפעלו מהכוכבים בשמיים ומהנוף מסביב הן רק ברגעי המשבר הנוראיים הללו בהם הם נשארים ללא סוללה ובלי שקע חשמל נראה לעין.

mental_floss Blog & Now that's a nasty breakup I'm probably lucky: I haven't broken up with (or been broken up with by ) that many people. Those few occasions where actual face-to-face breaking-up was necessary were often awkward and often painful -- and sometimes both -- but thankfully, revenge was never a part of the equation. Here are some examples of just how revengefully wrong breakups can go: More nasty breakups, after the jump.
