There are days when the maxim “No good deed goes unpunished” feels unbearably weighty, when having done the right thing, the good thing, becomes a burden you wish you could shrug off. Writer-director India Donaldson’s gorgeous and subtle debut Good One is about one of those days, specifically the kind of moment that makes you wish you could turn back the clock, just by a minute, and rearrange the whole scene.

The Graphics Interchange Format, or GIF, was first developed by computer scientist working at CompuServe back in 1987. And while it has swelled or dipped, the debate over how to pronounce the acronym for those minute looping animations became a thing once the GIF really took off. Is it a hard g like in graphics? Or a soft g like giant? Answering that question depends who you ask and whose authority on the matter you believe in.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Orphan: First Kill
Whether or not you’ve watched 2009’s Orphan, there’s a good chance you already know how it ends. After 13 years, the horror film’s shocking, albeit silly twist is just too good not to be spoiled: The titular orphan (played by Isabelle Fuhrman) isn’t the nine-year-old she appears to be.

It’s a result of a confluence of factors but mostly comes down to young Koreans’ frustrations with high costs of living and low quality of life.

What is squirting? Squirting, according to some scientists, refers to the emission of clear, colourless fluid from the bladder, similar to urine in composition, but not urine. Skene's glands, located on the vagina's front wall, are believed to be involved in the mechanisms of squirting. ADVERTISEMENT

Now that both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have made their vice-presidential choices, pundits and armchair analysts alike will be watching to see if J.D. Vance and Tim Walz can be effective fighters on the stump. That reflects the role of modern running mates. As Jonathan Alter recently observed in the New York Times, “Vice-presidential nominees are meant to be attack dogs.” That wasn’t always the case, however. The running mate as an “attack dog” is a modern invention — not widely used until the late 1980s and 1990s.
