Artist Photoshops Cat Faces Onto All Kinds of Stuff and It’s Pretty Funny

Are you ready for cats, cats, and more cats!

What else do you need in life, really? As I’ve said many times before, we work for them, they are our overlords, they KNOW it, and if you dare to speak out against them, you will pay dearly…I think you know what I’m talking about…just keep your mouth shut and play by the rules…

Anyway, an artist on Instagram who goes by the handle koty_vezde uses Photoshop to make some hilarious mash-ups where he incorporates cat heads into just about everything from other animals to food to anything else you can imagine…

Are you ready for this? Let’s check it out!

1. Watching from above.

That’s a little bit creepy.

2. The elusive enormous cat with antlers.

You don’t see that very often.

3. A sea cat!

Deep below the surface…

4. Are you hungry?

I don’t think I’d be able to take a bite of that! Too cute!

5. Yes! Cat alpacas!

It doesn’t get any better than that!

6. Freshly hatched!

Welcome to the world!

7. A cat-o-saur.

A truly ferocious beast.

8. Check out this family portrait.

They look very serious…and kind of spooky.

9. You knew this was coming.

Hey, it looks pretty good!

10. Care for a kitty breakfast?

If so, dig in!

11. In the great outdoors.

Just take all the majesty in…

12. A very wise cat…

That you shouldn’t mess with.

Those are great!

The “Style Not Size” Series Shows that Body Type Doesn’t Really Matter in Fashion

Denise Mercedes and Maria Castellanos are entrepreneurs, models, and friends who have made quite a splash on Instagram with their “Style not Size” series – a collaboration between the two women, both of different height, shape, and ethnicity, showing off side-by-side displays of the same outfits, and absolutely rocking every one of them.

The idea here is simple but expertly achieved; fashion isn’t about having this or that body type, it’s about crafting your look and having confidence! Try as you might, there’s just no way to say who wears it better in any one of these. Here are just a few examples of this killer set!

10. Serving looks

I’m also impressed by how clean that kitchen is…

9. Keep it 100

Got good moves, too.

8. Natural light

Scroll to the last one for a bug attack.

7. Go, go, go

Here they are showing off some selections from American Eagle.

6. Looking snappy

Get it, girls.

5. Bilingual

It’s gettin’ hot in here.

4. One, two, three

Follow the rules.

3. Pop and lock

The music choice is…interesting!

2. Beach day

Golden sands and hot fashion.

1. Dip in

Nothing like a little bit of style on the rocks.

Check out their feeds for more great shots, as well as links to their stores and other projects! Their “style not size” series is just the beginning of what these two talented ladies are up to.

What has your experience been trying to look good and feel comfortable in your own body?

Woman Recreates Cliché Travel Instagram Photos in Her Apartment During the Shutdown

2020 has really sucked so far.

And if you’re a person who regularly travels for business or pleasure, you know that’s it’s been a big adjustment being stuck at home and pretty much not being able to go ANYWHERE.

Travel blogger Sharon Waugh is based in South Africa but she, like all of us, is also stuck at home. So what’s a travel enthusiast to do…?

Waugh decided to spend her time recreating cliché travel photos that you routinely see people post on Instagram in her apartment and they are funny and totally spot-on.

Take a look at her photos. We think they’re great!

1. High on the mountaintop…

But now in your kitchen.

2. The Sydney Opera House.

Nice placement with the dishes, at least…

3. Jump for joy!

But do it inside for now.

4. Oh, to be at the beach…

Don’t try to surf with that ironing board.

5. Come right this way.

Doesn’t quite have the same look to it, does it?

6. Getting out in nature.

The great indoors.

7. Yayyyy! Oh, wait…

Hmmmm, well, this will have to do for now.

8. The Taj Mahal.

I love this one!

9. All the love in the world.

We’ll get back to it soon!

10. Definitely an “influencer” photo.

Get out of the road!

11. Close enough…

Gotta do the best with what you have.

12. Nailed that pose!

The lighting works, too!

Those are great!

Let’s hope that we can all travel to REAL places sooner than later.

Where is the FIRST place you want to go when it’s safe to travel again?

Funny Reasons Why Kids Didn’t Want Their Food

Children. You can’t live with them and you CERTAINLY can’t live without them. It’s the law!

Well, until they’re like 18 or something. And even then they might stick around.

So… can we be honest. Kids are more spoiled today than they’ve ever been, and these Instagram posts prove it. Because there’s NO way my kid (who doesn’t exist) would ever be able to act like this.

But hey, let’s judge these parents! That’s fun!

1. Like, seriously, just untwist them.

It’s not even that hard.

2. OK, we can see how this would be confusing.

Totally makes sense.

3. Eggs must be uniform.

From now on. Get to work chickens!

4. She’s got a point.

I mean, just look at that devious smirk.

https://www.instagram.com/p/3Zy—v0Ed/

5. Million-dollar idea right here.

Spicy grapes!

6. Look, Ma, it just tastes better this way OK?

I’m not surprised you don’t understand.

7. You’re an animal!

Who puts lotion on carrots?!

8. We can see the resemblance.

It’s uncanny now that you mention it.

9. This makes perfect sense.

I wouldn’t want to eat kitty cats, either, Mom.

10. Get this kid some LSAT prep books, baby!

We’ve got some serious logic going on here.

11. Hmm. Who’s gonna tell her?

Not me!

12. This kid might be onto something.

Christmas, upgraded!

13. Circles = far superior to squares.

Everyone knows that, Dad.

Okay, I actually feel a little bit bad about judging those parents. Because how you can deal with these small little people who are so unreasonably dumb?

People say kids are just highly creative? No, they’re not. They’re ignorant and quite stupid.

Get a job, kids! And buy your own food!

What do you think? Should kids have to get jobs when they’re 5 and buy their own food? Let us know in the comments!

Things People Probably Shouldn’t Have Texted to Their Boss

There are pros and cons to living in our connected world. With greater ease of instant communication comes more of a chance that we’re going to accidentally misuse it; like, say, sending your boss a text ABOUT your boss that you MEANT to send to your girlfriend and now you’re not sure if you’re still going to have a job tomorrow. Oops.

I need some kind of app that asks me if I’m ABSOLUTELY SURE I meant to send my message to certain contacts. We all need it.

Here are 13 examples of exactly why we all need it.

12. Can’t handle it

Why would you text this to your boss?

View this post on Instagram

#bosstexts

A post shared by Holly Ann (@hollyannweb) on

11. Love is love

Clearly someone hasn’t read the handbook on office romance.

10. A reasonable request

Did you mean to say that?

9. Sass

I’m gonna need some popcorn to watch whatever happens after this.

View this post on Instagram

Texts from my boss. #bosstexts

A post shared by Rachel Gonzalez (@roxyholiday) on

8. Sick of your crap

Some details maybe don’t need to be shared with anyone at all.

7. Don’t show weakness

Look we’re all thinking it but don’t say it out loud.

6. Texts from last night

Texting your boss should require a breathalyzer.

5. Self-evaluation

It’s always worse when there are pictures involved.

4. An adorable mess

Who could possibly be offended by this?

3. Happy birthday?

I don’t know who’s in the wrong here but it’s all-around miserable.

2. Party time

Hold on, why does your boss call you “Peewee?”

1. Behind your back

I wouldn’t count on that vacation.

Let this be a cautionary tale to us all. Maybe change your boss’ name in your contacts to just “CAREFUL!”

Have you ever done something like this?

Tell us about it in the comments.

I water it about once a week with just about 1 tbs of water.

Here are Some Incredibly Annoying Interactions With Social Media “Influencers”

This whole “influencer” culture absolutely baffles me.

These people are famous for what?

And we’re supposed to follow them why?

Plus, apparently a whole lot of them are totally annoying. Are these people serious?

Let’s go to the evidence…

1. Free tickets needed.

"Influencer" wanted free tickets to a CHARITY event from ChoosingBeggars

2. Free rent, please!

Bachelorette contestant wants free rent to be "live-in influencer" from ChoosingBeggars

3. That’s kind of sad…

World-famous model will promote your club for a $25 bottle of vodka. from ChoosingBeggars

4. Gimme gimme gimme.

If you give me your products for free, I will write good reviews because I’m a social media influencer (This person wrote that instead of an actual review. They thought the review section is where you can solicit business) from ChoosingBeggars

5. Shaming.

A beauty influencer posted screenshots of her demanding PR for a $17 eyeshadow palette in an attempt to shame an indie brand, instead she just came across as catty and childish from ChoosingBeggars

6. Thanks, but no thanks.

Makeup Brand DMed beauty guru about sending her their product for free and in turn she would post a video using the product on her page. The company replied rudely when she told them she has a fee for doing that. from ChoosingBeggars

7. Sounds like a scam to me…

An ‘influencer’ I know from ChoosingBeggars

8. I’ll give you exposure!

My friend does nails from home and entitled “influencer” wants to trade exposure for free nails, takes to insulting her job and kids when her offer is declined. Will post backstory in comments from ChoosingBeggars

9. “Oh boy” is right.

"Influencer’s" Agent asking for a free wedding package. Oh boy. from ChoosingBeggars

10. What a deal.

I sell spaghetti themed merchandise on Pinterest and some CB wanted me to pay for social influence. from ChoosingBeggars

Have you had any infuriating interactions with so-called “influencers”?

Tell us all about it in the comments. Ugh!

This Artist Makes Interesting Photo Collages of People Who Live Very Different Lives

Art challenges us to see things from a new perspective. Turkish artist Uğur Gallenkuş is based in Istanbul, Turkey and is known for his photo collages.

A digital artist, Gallenkuş focuses on poverty, war zones, and refugees. He uses his art to spark conversations between their lives and those of people who are more privileged.

Here are 21 of his most powerful works.

21. Turkish-backed Syrian rebels

20. Refugee in the Aegean Sea

19. Child Laborer vs. Student

View this post on Instagram

A child carries bricks to an oven near Nyamlel, South Sudan on March 22, 2018. Child labour has been on the rise in South Sudan, a country where 60 percent of the population is under 18 and Unicef says that over 70 percent of children don’t attend school. In Nyamlel, up to 30 children work in the brickmaking business and they make between 50-100 South Sudanese Pounds (1 USD = 240 SSP on the black market). A brick factory owner said that he hires children because they are cheaper and he additionally thinks he is helping families survive. The economy of South Sudan is one of the world's most underdeveloped with South Sudan having little existing infrastructure and the highest maternal mortality and female illiteracy rates in the world as of 2011. South Sudan exports timber to the international market. The region also contains many natural resources such as petroleum, iron ore, copper, chromium ore, zinc, tungsten, mica, silver, gold, diamonds, hardwoods, limestone and hydropower. The oilfields in the south have been significant to the economy since the latter part of the 20th century. South Sudan has the third-largest oil reserves in Sub-Saharan Africa. The country's economy, as in many other developing countries, is heavily dependent on agriculture. . Photo: Stefanie Glinski @stephglinski @afpphoto . #ParalelEvrenSavaşBarış ?

A migrant rests in front of a police barricade after Turkish riot police blocked the road towards Edirne on September 21, 2015 in Istanbul. A new march by migrants trying to reach Europe overland from Turkey was blocked by police outside Istanbul today. Around 700 mostly Syrian men, women and children from a group that had been blocked for the past week at Istanbul's main bus station set out overnight on footfor the northwestern city of Edirne, 250 kilometres (150 miles) away. At the end of 2015, in an agreement between the European Union and Turkey, Turkey agreed to prevent migrants from crossing into Europe on the condition of some terms and payment of 3 billion euros. As a result of this obstruction, the migrants chose to reach Europe through the Aegean Sea by illegal means. . Photo: Ozan Köse @ozannkoseee @afpphoto . #ParalelEvrenSavaşBarış?

The most important characteristic of Homo Sapiens is that can think. Sometimes having different thoughts (or even thinking) can be dangerous and deadly, depending on the time, geography and the government you are in. For those who have never known you, you are a target to be destroyed. Societies that have peaceful thoughts on art, philosophy or problems are always win. Those who put pressure on those with different opinions are always doomed to lose. To think is good. If you don't think, you're not a homo sapiens.

The devastation across Gaza can still be seen nearly one year on from the 2014 conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants. United Nations official figures said that the 50 day war left at least 2,189 Palestinians killed, including more than 1,486 civilians, and 11,000 injured. 67 Israeli soldiers and six civilians were killed. Money pledged by the international community six months ago to rebuild Gaza has not materialised leaving many Palestinians impoverished and still suffering. .

15. Together vs. Separate

View this post on Instagram

A two-year-old Honduran asylum seeker cries as her mother is searched and detained near the U.S.-Mexico border on June 12, 2018 in McAllen, Texas. The asylum seekers had rafted across the Rio Grande from Mexico and were detained by U.S. Border Patrol agents before being sent to a processing center for possible separation. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is executing the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy towards undocumented immigrants. U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions also said that domestic and gang violence in immigrants' country of origin would no longer qualify them for political asylum status. Honduras is one of the poorest and most violent countries in Central America. The country experienced a coup d'état in 2009 and is one of the most unequal countries in the world, while the poverty rate stood at 64.3% in 2018. Drought and crop failure in the Central American dry corridor and Climate change in Honduras has been a factor in the formation of the caravans. Many communities have become refugees or immigrants for political, religious and economic reasons in throughout human history. And it will continue to be. It is a fact that there will be and will rises mass migrations in the future due to problems caused by war and global warming. According of the UNHCR (UN Refugee Agency), we are now witnessing the highest levels of displacement on record. An unprecedented 70.8 million people around the world have been forced from home. Among them are nearly 25.9 million refugees, over half of whom are under the age of 18. There are also millions of stateless people who have been denied a nationality and access to basic rights such as education, healthcare, employment and freedom of movement. In a world where nearly 1 person is forcibly displaced every two seconds as a result of conflict or persecution with we're live. .

An orphaned boy walks past a wall with drawings depicting rocket-propelled grenade launchers, in Bol, Chad on 13 October, 2018. A humanitarian crisis is underway in the Chad Basin, caused by a complex combination of political conflict and environmental factors. Lake Chad—once one of Africa’s largest lakes and a lifeline to 40 million people—is experiencing massive desertification. As a result of unplanned irrigation, extended drought, deforestation and resource mismanagement, the size of the lake has decreased by 90 percent over the past 60 years. Traditional livelihoods such as fishing have withered, and water shortages are causing conflict between farmers and cattle herders. Jihadist group Boko Haram, which is active in the area, both benefits from the hardship and widespread hunger and contributes to it. The group uses local villages as a recruiting ground, and the protracted conflict has uprooted 2.5 million people, exacerbating food insecurity. .

In March 1993, Israel closed its border with Gaza, causing a massive rise in unemployment. With more than 800,000 people contained in the Israeli-patrolled, 8 km wide strip of land, bloodshed increased sharply. The violence reached a peak in May, when 30 Palestinians were killed and hundreds injured. The peace agreement signed in Washington D.C. on 13 September 1993 promised limited authority for the Gaza Strip and a withdrawal of the Israeli army. via @worldpressphoto .

Hands of refugees stretch out as they scramble for donations in the Balukhali camp on September 18, 2017 in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. According the @UNDP, 26 people on Earth own the same wealth as the 3.8 billion who make up the poorest half of humanity. 1 out of 4 urban residents live in slum-like conditions. Children under the age of 18 are half of the world’s 1.3 billion people facing multidimensional poverty.

A Serbian paramilitary couple celebrate the fall of the Croatian city of Vukovar. Fall from 1991. . The Battle of Vukovar was an 87-day siege of Vukovar in eastern Croatia by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA), supported by various paramilitary forces from Serbia, between August and November 1991. Vukovar was defended by around 1,800 lightly armed soldiers of the Croatian National Guard (ZNG) and civilian volunteers, against as many as 36,000 JNA soldiers and Serb paramilitaries equipped with heavy armour and artillery. During the battle, shells and rockets were fired into the town at a rate of up to 12,000 a day. At the time, it was the fiercest and most protracted battle seen in Europe since 1945, and Vukovar was the first major European town to be entirely destroyed since the Second World War. When Vukovar fell on 18 November 1991, several hundred soldiers and civilians were massacred by Serb forces and at least 20,000 inhabitants were expelled. Most of Vukovar was ethnically cleansed of its non-Serb population and became part of the self-declared Republic of Serbian Krajina. Several Serb military and political officials, including Milošević, were later indicted and in some cases jailed for war crimes committed during and after the battle. The battle exhausted the JNA and proved a turning point in the Croatian war. A ceasefire was declared a few weeks later. Vukovar remained in Serb hands until 1998, when it was peacefully reintegrated into Croatia with the signing of the Erdut Agreement. It has since been rebuilt but has less than half of its pre-war population and many buildings are still scarred by the battle. Its two principal ethnic communities remain deeply divided and it has not regained its former prosperity. (Source: Wikipedia) .

3. Wasteland vs. Forest

Men walking on a pipe over a stream near a tannery, in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Almost all of Bangladesh's 200 plus tanneries are concentrated in Hazaribagh, a densely populated, odious neighbourhood on the banks of the Buriganga River. Residents of Hazaribagh's slums complain of illnesses such as fevers, skin diseases, respiratory problems and diarrhoea. They blame the tanneries for polluting the air, water, and soil and therefore causing their afflictions.The lives of the tannery industry's estimated 20,000 workers are harsh with many dying before they turn 50. Everyday these factories discharge thousands of litres of foul-smelling liquid waste into the river. However, with almost one billion USD a year in export sales, the leather industry is one of Bangladesh's most profitable sectors and there has been limited progress in cleaning it up. For 60 years of operations an unrecorded amount of chromium sulphate, lead, organohalogens, lime, hydrogen sulphide, sulphuric acid, formic acid, bleach, dyes and oils have been discharged into the river. We have known for a long time that the climate crisis is threatening our lives badly in every possible way and that it needs to be treated like the emergency it is. Now we need world leaders who believe in science and who should fight to protect our planet for future generations from the dangers of this climate crisis. Educating ourselves on this climate crisis is one of the most important steps in taking action. It’s not yet too late to educate ourselves on the facts of this global climate crisis. Let’s each do our own part from now on, to protect our planet from further destruction. . Photo: GMB Akash @gmbakash . #ParalelEvrenSavaşBarış ?

2. History vs. Regular Day

Associated Press photographer Eddie Adams was on the streets of Saigon on February 1, 1968, two days after the forces of the People’s Army of Vietnam and the Viet Cong set off the Tet offensive and swarmed into dozens of South Vietnamese cities. As Adams photographed the turmoil, he came upon Brigadier General Nguyen Ngoc Loan, chief of the national police, standing alongside ­Nguyen Van Lem, the captain of a terrorist squad who had just killed the family of one of Loan’s friends. Adams thought he was watching the interrogation of a bound prisoner. But as he looked through his viewfinder, Loan calmly raised his .38-caliber pistol and summarily fired a bullet through Lem’s head. After shooting the suspect, the general justified the suddenness of his actions by saying, “If you hesitate, if you didn’t do your duty, the men won’t follow you.” The Tet offensive raged into March. Yet while U.S. forces beat back the communists, press reports of the anarchy convinced Americans that the war was unwinnable. The freezing of the moment of Lem’s death symbolized for many the brutality over there, and the picture’s widespread publication helped galvanize growing sentiment in America about the futility of the fight. “Still photographs are the most powerful weapon in the world.” – Eddie Adams .
