1 [People are having way too much fun filming their lives like a Wes Anderson movie on TikTok]( Even if you aren’t a fan of Wes Anderson [movies]( in general, you gotta admit the man has a rich, distinct cinematic style that is uniquely his own. You can always spot an Anderson movie for its satisfying symmetry, vibrant color palette and planimetric composition that makes every frame feel more like a standalone painting than a film still. The result makes even the most humdrum event feel like something out of a [storybook](. And this is why folks on TikTok are taking the film auteur’s aesthetic and running absolutely wild with it. The wholesome trend seems to have begun with Ava Williams ([@avawillyums]( who filmed herself on a [train]( and perfectly nailed that signature Wes Anderson style. Warm hues, curated shots, chirpy music and all.

A student hands in the assignment with the following opening paragraph: "I am sorry, but as an Al language model, I am not able to complete this assignment. However, I can provide you with some guidance on how to approach this essay." Will you consider this a pass or fail? A- or F? How would you grade an essay if you knew a human student had not written it? In a recent Twitter post, a student was caught by their teacher for using [ChatGPT]( a software that can answer questions and assist with tasks, such as composing emails, essays, and code.

One gets revved up by the idea of crowds, public spaces, going out after 10 p.m.…while the other would find those things an absolute [nightmare]( and much prefer to be in jammies well before 10 p.m. as they recharge with a book in silence. Sure, we’re all humans, but when viewed through this lens, it almost seems like we’re looking at two completely different species. And as it turns out, one couple decided to take this idea and run with it, making for one hilarious [nature]( show spoof. In a [video]( posted by “[Holderness Family Laughs]( a Youtube channel that routinely delivers side-splitting parody videos, we see Penn Holderness giving his best [David Attenborough]( narration while his introvert wife, Kim, leaves her natural habitat of home and goes “out into the wild.” (Better known as just out to you extroverts.)

Take for example an enormous 620,000 square mile build-up of trash floating in the ocean between California and Hawaii, which has miraculously become a floating home to a myriad of sea creatures, otherwise known as the [Great Pacific Garbage Patch](. Swirling ocean currents called [gyres]( act as whirlpools sucking in piles and piles of litter into condensed areas, and the debris collects in patches in the center of the gyre. Though there are five of these garbage patches across the globe, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch—made of trash from countries in Asia and North and South America—contains the most plastic, according to [USA Today.]( [Read the story]( 5 [13-year-old autistic magician wows judges on 'Britain's Got Talent']( Cillian O'Connor, a 13-year-old from County Meath, Ireland, wowed judges on [“Britain’s Got Talent”]( on April 15 by making cards appear out of nowhere, making milk disappear and conjuring up a huge jar of jelly beans for Simon Cowell. The appearance would have been incredible for any magician, let alone a teenager, but O’Connor’s was even more remarkable because he has autism spectrum disorder and dyspraxia. [Social anxiety]( is prevalent in people with autism, with reports showing it could be as high as 50%. Further, dyspraxia is a[neurodevelopmental]( condition that makes it difficult for people to perform motor skills. Every magician needs two things: being comfortable in front of an audience and above-average fine motor skills. O’Connor believes that magic has helped him to develop both.
