Woman sparks debate by looking after children on a plane while her husband relaxes
Woman sparks debate by looking after children on a plane while her husband relaxes
A woman has sparked debate after revealing that she takes care of the kids on a flight while her husband gets to sit back and relax. It’s no secret that in heterosexual relationships women are more likely to take on the majority of unpaid labour, including child care, cooking and cleaning. One wife sparked outrage after revealing she made her husband a second dinner after he refused to eat the first one she prepared for him, and now another husband has come under fire for letting his wife do all the child care. In a viral Instagram video, influencer Maria Roberts shared a clip showing her sitting in between her two children on a flight, taking care of them and making sure they were settled. The clip then showed her husband, Lou, who sat across the aisle and appeared to be watching his screen without a care in the world. Roberts captioned the post: “As Lou likes to say, ‘I would switch with you, but they refuse to sit next to me’.” The video has been viewed 18.5 million times and in the comments section, Instagrammers debated the unequal workload between the husband and wife. One person commented: “I cannot believe that in 2023 women still accept this behaviour.” Someone else added: “I hate that this is still a standard we are promoting. Even young children can learn that Dad is a good option and don’t need to always be with [their] mom. Please for the love of God stop reinforcing that dads are incapable.” Another commented: “Nope, nope, nope… I did this one time. After that, I bought two seats together, one row behind the other. He got one kid and they had their own bag of snacks and activities and I had the other. I was never doing that again.” “The headphones in is so triggering lol,” another pointed out.

Major ocean discovery could unlock history of evolution
Major ocean discovery could unlock history of evolution
Scientists are learning new things all the time about the early days of life on Earth, and a new discovery could change our understanding of evolution in our oceans. Algae are among the most vital life forms of the planet today – and new research into algae’s ancient ancestors makes for intriguing reading. Palaeontologist Tom Harvey from the University of Leicester believes he’s found fossilised phytoplankton which was key to the makeup of the oceans 500 million years ago. A new study authored by Harvey and published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B focuses on samples he found in rock from Newfoundland, Canada, While there’s more known about the early animals that dominated the food chains at that time, the smaller organisms around 500 million years ago are still relatively unstudied. Harvey’s research focuses on the microscopic creatures – and it all came about by chance. While he was actually looking for animal skin in rocks using a microscope, he instead stumbled upon collections of geometric clusters, which he later concluded were ancient forerunners to algae. “The cells were quite big, they formed quite a large colony that has this amazing geometry,” he said. “It was just too mysterious. I didn’t even want to hazard a guess.” According to Harvey’s findings, it’s evidence that the animals at that time filtered seawater for phytoplankton – which would mark the earliest evidence of them doing so, which is vital to the makeup of ocean ecosystems. Like today’s life forms, it’s thought that chemical signals sent by nearby animals caused the ancient samples to divide and grow. It also fills a space in the records of phytoplankton and helps to paint a well-rounded picture of evolution over time, given that the phytoplankton we see today only traces back around 200 million years ago.

Latines Love Horror, But We Rarely See Ourselves In Spooky Movies & TV
Latine moviegoers can make or break a horror movie at the box office: Latines represent 26% of horror movie audiences, compared with 20% for other genres, according to the Comscore/Screen Engine PostTrak Audience Survey. Despite this, Latine representation in horror films and TV shows remains disproportionate to our love of spooky stories.
