DEAR ABBY: At 63, I am the youngest sister of four siblings. We grew up in the turmoil of Dad’s alcoholism and hoarding, as well as physical and emotional abuse from both our parents. One of my sisters, “June,” was sexually assaulted by my brother. She’s 71 now and hasn’t worked since she was in her early 30s. She supports herself on Social Security and a pension from her ex-husband. Her ex-husband recently passed away, and the pension stopped. She now expects my sister and me to pay her rent because she’s “too old to be working anymore.” Abby,...

Shoppers beware: there’s fungus among us. They say if you lie down with dogs, you’ll get up with fleas. And now, a retail worker warns that if you try on unwashed clothes, you’re at risk for contracting this icky skin disease. “When you buy new clothes, please wash them,” begged content creator May Ricketts, in a viral video. “I know [that when] you buy something new, you just want to wear it — but I got ringworm for working in the fitting room of a big clothes retailer.” Now that’s enough to make your skin crawl — quite literally....

I’ve been trying to rent out my apartment, and this Section 8 applicant is really testing my patience. She started by bombarding me with texts and then claimed she couldn’t afford the $35 Zillow application fee. I told her we still needed to see the application before making a decision, and then she insisted on coming over with the deposit even though I hadn’t agreed to anything yet.

A friend of mine just helped his mother secure a Section 8 apartment in a great neighborhood. The place is beautiful, but the upfront costs? Absolutely insane. The landlord required $15k upfront, including a broker fee, just to allow her to rent under Section 8.

Siblings Glenda Jo Yoder, 13, Darrell Yoder, 10, and Devon Yoder, 9, were thrown from the carriage when a Mercedes-Benz GLA rear-ended it Wednesday morning in the rural town of Bremen, about 20 miles south of South Bend, WIBC reported . The siblings all died at the scene, according to the Marshall County coroner’s office. NY’s Amish communities, vaccinations and the battle for the ‘greater good’ The 17-year-old driver of the car was not injured. A medical helicopter and...

I get it—landlords can show a place when selling, but how often is reasonable? I’ve had nearly 15 showings since February, plus an open house. I work remotely, and buyers have walked in during meetings, asked me about the building like I’m the leasing agent, and one even let their kid run around my living room.

Zach Wilson and his fiancée Nicolette Dellanno enjoyed a getaway to Hawaii ahead of their June wedding, as seen in photos posted to the social media influencer’s Instagram on Wednesday. The Dolphins quarterback and Dellanno recently attended a wedding in Maui, where they enjoyed some R&R with friends. “Celebrated love in Hawaii🌺🤍,” Dellanno, who is a New Jersey native, captioned her post. She looked stunning in a strapless pink dress that included a sheer, lace bottom for the nuptials. Wilson, 25, was all smiles while wearing a flower print button-up shirt and khaki pants. Why Zach Wilson was a...

I’m planning to retire early next year, and thanks to a mix of deferred comp and a small payout, my income for that year should be similar to this year’s. But now I’m considering a “retirement gap year” — taking a break in 2025 and maybe going back to work in 2026.

If you’re into gardening, you know that the best deals are hard to come by—especially for quality garden soil. Well, guess what? Home Depot's Spring Black Friday (April 3–16) is here, and they’ve dropped the price of Miracle-Gro Garden Soil to just $2 per bag! 😍 Normally it’s around $5, so this is an absolute steal!

Prince Harry was dramatically escorted from his hearing at London’s High Court on Wednesday after a supporter appeared to disrupt proceedings. The Duke of Sussex, 40, was taken out of the courtroom by an entourage of bodyguards after an unnamed woman in her 50s shouted out in defense of the royal. The woman in question had initially attracted attention by arriving late to the court to witness Harry and his legal team attempt to win back taxpayer-funded UK security protection. After her tardy arrival, the woman continued to cause a scene in the quiet courtroom by moving around in...

I’m 21, a new mom, and in college full-time. My boyfriend works part-time but hours are super inconsistent. We’re currently living with my sister, but it’s not a safe or stable place for me or the baby—she’s constantly threatening to kick us out or drops rent responsibilities on us last minute.

My old workplace had the best lunch system: 11:30-2:00 window, coverage swapped, zero drama. Fast-forward to new management: "EVERYONE MUST LUNCH AT EXACTLY 12:00. NO EXCEPTIONS."

I finally got a job, and guess what? Now I don’t qualify for benefits. I get that assistance isn’t meant to last forever, but how does it make sense that working 40 hours a week still isn’t enough to live?

Rather than something old, something new — this bride’s wedding was nearly ruined by drugs and doggy doo. Most gals need a big day disaster like they need a champagne cork to the head. Well, unlucky for newlywed Jade Jensen, she suffered both — and then some — just moments before walking down the aisle in March. “Hilarious things that happened on my wedding day,” Jensen, 27, a paramedic from Australia, wrote in the closed caption of a TikTok tell-all. She shared the explainer vid after teasing social media with the tea on her pre-ceremony chaos in a separate...

Wild salmon are swimming quicker due to painkillers and other drugs dumped in rivers and the sea, reveals new research. Traces of a sleeping pill shortened the time it took for juvenile salmon to navigate through two hydropower dams along their regular migration route that usually slow up the journey, say scientists. Levels of clobazam — a medication often prescribed for sleep disorders — also increased the river-to-sea migration success of juvenile salmon in the wild, according to the findings of the largest study of its kind. An international team of international researchers, led by the Swedish University of...

I had no idea that SNAP could offer so many hidden perks! Here’s what I’ve discovered:. ✨ Farmers Market Match – Some states actually double what you spend at farmers markets. I spend $5 in SNAP and get $10 worth of fresh produce.

I’m right there with you. At 38, I woke up last month realizing my high school reunion is in two years—and suddenly it felt like yesterday I was cramming for prom. The scary part isn’t just losing our youth; it’s realizing how fragile the world feels when the people who shaped us start fading.

Let’s be real: most of us don’t look our best after a night of heavy drinking . So when one man woke up with a swollen face and puffy eyelids, he figured he was just paying the price of partying. But it wasn’t last night’s liquor coming back to haunt him. Instead, it was a rare and deadly heart condition — and one well-intentioned mistake nearly cost him his life. Three months, no answers When the swelling didn’t let up, the 33-year-old Chinese man sought medical help — but doctors came up empty. Initial testing found no problems with...

Lately, I’ve been wondering—does love change with age? I don’t fall as hard as I used to. That all-consuming obsession, the impulsive choices—it’s like that version of me doesn’t exist anymore. Now, I’m more practical. I see love differently, maybe more realistically. I don’t know if I believe in soulmates anymore.

Holy mackerel. An Upper West Side salsa dancer reeled in a shocking $6.45 million verdict after slipping on a slop of slimy fish guts outside a gourmet grocery store — a nasty spill that’s sent her to the operating room at least 12 times over the last decade. A Manhattan jury awarded the woman the massive windfall Tuesday, finding that Citarella on the Upper West Side was at fault when she dislocated her knee in the 2014 slip-and-fall that’s since hindered her running, salsa dancing and amateur bodybuilding hobbies. “It’s been a long, long, long process,” said the plaintiff,...

One thing Americans can be sure of: At any given time, somewhere out there, a government decision-maker is finding new and inventive ways of flushing your hard-earned cash. The latest: Government watchdog OpenTheBooks found that the feds spent an eye-popping $4.6 billion on new furniture and decorations for government buildings since October 2020, even though only half the federal workforce was consistently showing up for work in person as of last year. In 2023, the Government Accountability Office found that 17 of 24 federal agencies used 25% or less of their headquarters’ buildings. So the feds blew billions in...

I keep seeing people say they change out all their cat litter once a week, and I just don’t get it. Like… does anyone actually do that? My litter box is huge, and I pour in three to four full bags at a time. If I dumped it all every week, that would be insanely expensive—easily about $120 a month just on litter.

Tried Nemat Amber Perfume Oil on a whim, and I’m obsessed. First, it hits with a soft amber, then melts into a gentle musk, and finally settles into a warm, woodsy base. It’s subtle, comforting, and never overpowering.

A Boston doctor who strangled his wife and dumped her body in a pond during a night of drinking in 2020 broke down and cried when he was convicted, to the disgust of his in-laws. Ingolf Tuerk’s head shot down as he began to weep when he was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter inside Norfolk Superior Court on Thursday, according to video by NBC Boston. “He is guilty of voluntary manslaughter,” the jury foreperson announced. Tuerk, the former head of urology at St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center in Brighton, had been on trial for murdering his wife, Kathleen McLean, inside...

These days, Rachael Kirkconnell is doing just rosy. After splitting with Matt James in January after four years together, the influencer, 28, is getting candid on how she’s moved forward with life. “I’ll say it’s night and day – at least that’s how it feels right now,” Kirkconnell exclusively told The Post while promoting her partnership with Each & Every . “It was a tough start to the year but we’re doing really well over here. I think I would have to attribute that to being really intentional about putting a lot of self love and self work back...

A couple was “caught in the act” in the middle of an Italian restaurant. A man and woman were dining at San Marino restaurant in England’s North West last Saturday when they were seen on camera planting glass in their meal before refusing to pay. The woman complained to the restaurant about a sharp object in her pasta, claiming that it “almost broke” her veneers. They allegedly refused to pay the $139 bill, attempted to receive compensation, then left the restaurant, the Sun reported . The family ordered a penne San Marino pasta, a chargrilled lamb shish kebab, garlic...

So here’s the deal: I’m in a marriage where the love seems gone, but we’re still sticking it out—for the kids, family, and all those other reasons you can’t just walk away. But honestly, it's hard to face a “failed” marriage every day. Here's what’s worked for me:

My dog of six years caught a cold, and my mom gave him Tylenol. By the next morning, he was gone. A simple online search would’ve told her that dogs can’t have Tylenol, but she never bothered to check. She’s given him grapes and chicken bones before, too. I was away at school, and my family didn’t even tell me until a week later—after they had already buried him. I never got to say goodbye.
