Sure, there are old-school commercial jingles that live in our heads rent-free. But a special few have actually gone on to become full-blown chart-toppers. “We’ve Only Just Begun,” made famous by the Carpenters, is one of those songs.

Back in the early 1970s, Crocker National Bank (later acquired by Wells Fargo) sought a way to expand its brand beyond that of an institution for business moguls to regular folks, primarily young newlyweds.

The Apple series Shrinking centers around actor Jason Segel, who plays a therapist juggling grief, fatherhood, and experimenting with unconventional therapy practices with his patients. It also stars Harrison Ford, who plays Segel’s mentor and boss and happens to be in the first chapters of living with Parkinson’s disease.

Actor Michael J. Fox, who notably has Parkinson’s in real life, was so moved by Ford’s “human” and “accessible” portrayal of the condition that he called up Bill Lawrence, his former Spin City boss, who also co-created Shrinking.

And, as he shared in an interview with the LA Times, Fox didn’t mince words:

If you’ve ever tried to make a cat do something it doesn’t want to do, you’ve likely experienced the terror that a cat’s wrath can invoke. Our cute, cuddly feline friends may be small, but the razor blades on their feet are no joke when they decide to utilize them. Even cats who love us can get spicy if we try to manhandle them, so we can imagine how things will go with cats who don’t know us well. But sometimes it’s necessary to handle a cat even if it’s resistant to the idea.

This is where Vancouver veterinarian Dr. Uri Burstyn comes in. His “How to pick up a cat like a pro” video, in which he demonstrates a few ways of picking up and handling a cat, has been viewed over 23 million times since he shared it in 2018. Unlike many viral videos, it’s not humorous and nothing outrageous happens, but the combo of Burstyn’s calm demeanor and his repeated instructions to “squish that cat” has endeared him to the masses. 

When an older employee was asked to train a 25-year-old to do the same job she’d been doing for as long as the young recruit had been alive, she had some choice words. And it became a vital lesson in not getting exploited.

The TikTok creator, who goes by The Unobsolete (@theunobsolete) centers her content around helping people “fight age bias” in the workplace. She explained how she had been “passed over” for a promotion that she had rightfully earned over the past two-and-a-half decades and was instead expected to train someone “fresh out of grad school” who presumably would then do the job for a fraction of the price.

“They expected me to teach her the job they said I wasn’t good enough for.”
