The most dramatic part of Ciara Murray's story about giving birth to son James is that she doesn't remember it at all. That's because at the time of her Caesarean section, Murray had been in a medically-induced coma after having a stroke almost two weeks earlier. When she woke from the coma on November 10, 2015, she learned that baby James had been delivered on October 30. Surprise!

Ciara Murray, from Fermanagh, Ireland, had experienced a healthy and normal pregnancy for the first 37 weeks, according to the Independent. But on October 29, she suffered a massive stroke, and had to be taken to the hospital, where the following day doctors removed the blood clot from her brain that had caused the stroke, and also deliver her baby via C-section. She was put into a coma by the doctors "to give her body time to heal," while her husband, John, took the baby home and cared for him.

She reportedly didn't wake up until 10 days later, though. When she woke, a nurse told her she'd had the baby. She told the Independent,

I couldn't believe it. John brought him into me and it was just amazing.

I could hardly move but he just lay there on my chest. He was just a wee tiny bundle but he was perfect.

I just felt so lucky that he was doing well because I was so worried about him.

Her recovery was far from complete, but she had a dedicated husband and a sweet, healthy baby. For more details on the recovery process, check out the rest of Ciara Murray's story in the Independent.

As she signed climate legislation into law, Swedish Deputy Prime Minister and Climate Minister Isabella Lövin seemed to parody one of Donald Trump's much-maligned photo ops. Remember it?

The time eight white men stood around signing an executive order that could limit women's access to reproductive health around the globe?

Now here's the Swedish politicians' photo.

"You can interpret it as you want," a Lövin spokesperson told BuzzFeed News. "It's more that Sweden is a feminist government and this is a very important law that we just decided on."

But the look on Lövin's face sells the parody—she's got that perfect "please take me seriously because I'm not smiling" expression. The number of people in the room is the same. And the way they're all looking down at the paper is evocative of the self-satisfied smiles of the Trump administration.

The comments in the Twitter announcement contained several (science) workplaces following suit:

The difference, of course, is that the Swedish signing has the "goal of phasing out fossil fuels by 2045," according to the Huffington Post.

Different country, different politicians, different priorities... same pose.

Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has explicitly criticized Trump over climate change, saying "The position we hear from the new [US] administration is worrying," according to the Guardian.

Meanwhile, Lövin herself has said she wants Europe to take over where the US left off, since "the US is not there anymore to lead."

The world's best runway walker is Filipino model-actor-comedian Sinon Laresca, who can strut in six-inch heels and rock his hips better than any other being on planet earth.

At the end of January, as a tribute to Miss Philippines Maxine Medina in the Miss Universe pageant, Loresca recreated her fabulous strut, which instantly became iconic on its own.

The video went crazy-viral on Facebook with over six million views, and the internet crowned him Miss Universe.

Loresca showed off his skills by hosting his own pageant in the street, complete with an evening gown competition...

...and of course, a swimsuit strut.

Loresca takes his crown seriously, keeping up his strut with six inch heels on the treadmill.

"This is how I work out!" he writes.

Here's to the King!

Jaime Primak Sullivan is an author/publicist/mom with a large internet following. Recently, she watched her 8-year-old son Max take a ball to the face during a basketball game. Then, to make things worse, some bozo in the crowd tried to shame her for her instinctive mom reaction. But instead of giving this jerk a piece of her mind, she contained her anger—channeling it into a thoughtful Facebook post about the pressure put on young boys not to show their emotions, and the damage it does to the men they become. It's a must-read for anyone who care about parenting.

Sullivan's post reads:

Last Saturday my 8 year old son Max was playing in his school basketball game. Somewhere is the shuffle he was hit in the face with the ball. I saw it happen like it was slow motion. I saw his eyes widen and then squint from the pain - he looked around trying to focus. I knew he was looking for me. "Max got hit in the face", I said to my husband as I instinctively jumped up from the bleachers. In that moment, I saw Max start to run around the court in my direction as the silent cry began. He couldn't catch his breath. My feet couldn't move fast enough. As soon as we connected, I got down on one knee. "Catch your breath buddy." He tilted his head back. "Max, breath. It's okay." He finally took a breath, and I wrapped my arms around him as he cried into my shoulder. A voice came from behind me - "You need to stop babying that kid." My mind registered the sentiment, but I kept my focus on Max. I cleaned his face, and wiped his tears. Once I knew he was okay, i sent him back around the court to join his team on the bench.

I climbed back up on the bleachers. My hands shaking. i was so angry. I fussed about it all the way home. My husband blew it off. "Who cares what they think?"

This notion that boys can never hurt, that they can never feel, is so damaging to them long term. The belief that any signs or gestures of affection will somehow decrease their manhood - this pressure to always "man up" follows them into adulthood where they struggle to fully experience the broad scope of love and affection. The only emotion they healthily learn to express is happiness then we wonder why they are always chasing it.

They're taught that sadness is weakness, that talking about their fears or short comings makes them less than. They don't mourn properly. The struggle to grieve. They're afraid to cry. It all spills into the way they husband and father and I hate it.

Love is a verb. It is something you do. It is not the same as babying, coddling or spoiling. It is something my son deserves. I will always love him when he is hurting and my prayer for him is that he is alway open to receiving love so he can love in return and keep that cycle going.

In the first 18 hours since Sullivan's post was published, it has received more than 12,000 likes, and been shared more than 2,000 times. She's continued to wade back into the comments, answering questions and responding to everyone who wants to support or criticize her parenting.

Speaking as someone who once took a basketball to the face during gym class, I can confirm that it hurts. I felt that I had to contain my tears to be a man. I was 16, but the point still stands.

When Kiersten Miles started nannying for little Talia Rosko, she probably didn't expect to be giving the baby girl part of her own liver. But just three weeks into her new job, that's exactly what she decided to do.

Talia had a rare, life-threatening liver disease that caused her liver's central bile duct to be destroyed and bile to build up in her liver. Some doctors predicted she might not live past her second birthday.

But, luckily, Miles decided to step in and help. Last month, the nanny donated a portion of her liver to Talia, a decision which the Rosko family says saved their daughter's life.

“Especially for a baby who can’t really ask for help, it didn’t seem like that much of a sacrifice,” Miles told The Washington Post, “because I’d be saving a life.”

After talking to her own mother and to Talia's parents, Miles spent the next few months undergoing evaluations to see if she would be a good match for Talia. When she found out she was an eligible donor, she made what Farra Rosko calls a "surreal" sacrifice.

“I was very taken aback,” Talia's mother Farra Rosko told The Post. “I didn’t know that she was this selfless — I’ve come to find out that this is who she is. She really is an angel on earth; I know that sounds silly, but she really is.”

On January 11, medical teams removed part of Miles' liver and rushed to implant it into Talia. The nanny said the first time she saw Talia after the surgery, "It just reminded me why I did it all."

After news of the donation spread, Miles was overwhelmed with positive messages. She took to Facebook to thank everyone for their support.

Talia's mom says that she'll be able to taper off medications over the next year, but will probably have to take anti-rejection drugs for the rest of her life. Either way, her life has been saved, all thanks to her very generous nanny.

Yay for happy endings!

Having to hold a baby can almost be a full-time job: pick them up and now you have no hands to do anything, put them down, and they won't stop crying to be picked up again. Some people have the ability to hold a baby on their hip while they use one hand to do something, but there are times you need both hands.

In this viral Facebook post, a woman named Claudia Sorhaindo showed the ingenious hack her niece/babysitter, J'ann, came up with for holding the baby while also making a sandwich—just put that sucker into your shorts.

It's like a Baby Bjorn, only lower.

Sorhaindo's text reads,

So I had to run out the house for a quick min, so I asked my niece to babysit Baby Ava. A few min later I received a text saying that J'Ann wanted to make a sandwich but didn't want to let baby Ava out of her sight 👀👀
Lord send help this was her solution 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 like really 😜😂😂😂😂😂 creativity at its finest 😂

Proof that when there's a will, there's a way. Even if that way is a pair of shorts.

Dating is hard for everyone, even very hot people like debonair actor Idris Elba. That is why Elba sat down with some dating experts—AKA small children— to seek their wisdom and sage advice on the ways of love and romance just in time for Valentine's Day.

Warning: watching Elba interact with small children might be enough to make your ovaries explode. You have been warned.

“It doesn’t matter about you, it matters about the girl,” says one kid who is going to be very popular with the ladies in a few years. Another told Elba to "take the girl somewhere nice where she likes, like a girl concert, and you pay for everything and you agree with everything she says." These kids get it.

The video was made to promote a charity auction Elba is participating in with Omaze. This Valentine's Day, you can enter to win a date with Idris Elba by donating at least $10 to W.E. Can Lead, a nonprofit that helps schoolgirls in Sierra Leone become a new generation of dynamic female leaders. Click here to enter.

Comedian Patton Oswalt is known for engaging his haters in Twitter battles that can rage for days—once he gets going, he will never quit. And considering he's one of the most savagely witty people on Twitter, it usually doesn't end well for the troll in question. But Peoria realtor Tony Brust must be regretting his decision to harass Oswalt more than any of the rest, because it just cost him his job.

As The Chicago Tribune reported, the feud started on Monday, when Oswalt tweeted the following joke in support of Sally Yates, the acting attorney general who was fired for refusing to enforce President Trump's Muslim ban, which she believed was illegal.

Brust responded with a tweet saying, "Oh s**t, the little troll has an opinion again."

Many of Oswalt's fans and colleagues joined forces to clown on this guy, including comedy writer Chris Conroy.

Instead of engaging Oswalt or Conroy in a substantive political debate (or better yet disappearing forever), Brust decided to respond by making a crack about Oswalt's wife, true crime writer Michelle McNamara. McNamara tragically died in her sleep last April, leaving a 7-year-old daughter. Brust quickly deleted his tweet, but the damage was done.

And of course, Oswalt noticed. He was not happy.

After that, Twitter came down on this schmuck like a ton of bricks. Soon, he had deleted his account. Oswalt couldn't have been happier.

At this point, you might assume Brust would take a well-advised break from social media, and forget this ugly chapter of his life. But unfortunately at him, he had made his cruelly tasteless joke from a public Twitter account in which he clearly identified his employer. And his employer wasn't pleased with all this new publicity. That same day, Brust was formally terminated.

Oswalt makes a good point. Trolls everywhere probably think they can get away with saying and doing whatever they want now, because Trump does. But they're in for a rude awakening, and so is he.

Eminem features on Big Sean's new song "No Favors," and he straight-up calls President Trump a "b*tch," going in and both the president and his one of his scariest cheerleaders, Ann Coulter.

(Sorry Big Sean, it's Eminem's song now.)

It's a political statement that's pretty damn fun to dance to.

Here are the lyrics, because it goes by so fast:

And f*ck Ann Coulter with a Klan poster
With a lamp post, door handle, shutter
A damn bolt cutter, a sandal, a can opener, a candle rubber
Piano, a flannel, sucker, some hand soap, butter
A banjo and manhole cover
Hand over the mouth and nose smother
Trample ran over the tramp with the Land Rover
The band, the Lambo, Hummer and Road Runner
Go ham donut or go Rambo, gotta make an example of her
That's for Sandra Bland ho and Philando
Hannibal on the lamb, no wonder I am so stubborn
I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando
Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch
I'll make his whole brand go under

Fans on Twitter are pumped, stanning like Stan.

And non-Eminem fans hilariously dissent.

This is Eminem's second diss track for the Donald, having released an eight minute "Campaign Speech" in October.

Oh, Eminem. What a snowflake.

This is Brian Ray, a 31-year-old from Los Angeles. To call him a Britney Spears"fan" would be a tremendous understatement:

Ray has devoted much of his life—and savings—to transforming himself into a Britney Spears look-alike. He spent over $80K on plastic surgery including a nose job, teeth veneers, fat injections, laser hair removal, lip fillers and Botox injections, the Daily Mail reports. On top of that, he now spends $500 a month on lotions and creams to maintain that youthful Britney glow.

This is what he used to look like (Brian is pictured on the left, next to his idol who he's met three times):

Ray's love for Brit extends far beyond the superficial. He also knows all her dance choreography, performs in nightclubs as a Britney impersonator, and his friends even call him "Britney."

He doesn't sing, but he does a mean lip-sync:

And it's good that he's putting them to use, because those lips cost a lot. Here he is getting ready for lip injections:

Bryan, who runs a marijuana edibles company, told the Daily Mail that his Brit-obsession started young:

I love making modifications to my face and body with the art of plastic surgery, fillers and countless other cosmetic procedures. Ever since I was young there was something about Britney Spears and the qualities she had that I thought was the perfect package. Britney will always be one of my biggest inspirations, I love that she was the biggest star in the world went through an incredibly hard time and came out on top.

He's addicted to her. Doesn't he know that she's toxic? (Her words!)

Ray has met Britney three times, including during her 2007 meltdown. He recalls:

She was going through a dark period and was speaking in a British accent while waiting in line at a pharmacy, she acknowledged me but wasn't too friendly.

Anyway, I'll leave you with this:

I really don't know how to put in to words how I feel about all this. So I'll let Britney say it for me:

It ain't easy keeping up with how the kids talk these days, with their slang and their "abbreves" and, most insidiously, their emoji. How are parents expected to keep up with their teens' wordless correspondences?

Well, leave it to Washington state reporter John Hopperstand, youth culture correspondent, to dig in to what the teens are saying. Um, a lot of it is wrong.

Let's break it down.

Teens are absolutely roasting this brave attempt to crack their secret code.

While off-base, this newsman gave the youths some hot new lingo.

When it comes to emoji, grownups, there's no need to think too hard.

In all the excitement/dread over Donald Trump's inauguration as president, somehow we missed the unveiling of Madame Tussauds' official wax figure of the man. For years, this museum and tourist trap staple has created perfect replicas of each new president, painstakingly rendered in wax. For their Trump statue, Madame Tussauds' sculptors outdid themselves, spending twice as long as normal. But it was worth it. Their creation is both eerily realistic and totally horrifying.

Like the man himself, you don't want to believe it's real, but you have no choice. And Madame Tussauds couldn't be prouder of their accomplishment.

Seeing it being sculpted is even more disturbing.

And of course, everyone has jokes about this thing.

I think I've finally figured out what makes Wax Trump so accurate and so unsettling at the same time. It's that the real Donald Trump already looks like he's made of wax.

You'll never get this thought out of your head now. You're welcome.

Tattoos are cool and a great way to tell the world that you have some unresolved issues with your parents (I have 3)! But imagine someone dragged you against your will to a tattoo parlor and gave you a really ugly tattoo you never requested. And you can't do anything about it because you're a cat and you can only speak cat.

That would NOT be "cool" at all.

Warning: This post contains images of animal cruelty. If you are highly sensitive to the feelings of animals, you are a good person but also maybe don't read ahead.

This is the story of a hairless Sphynx cat in Russia whose owner is a tattoo artist. According to Oddity Central, this guy thought his cat looked too basic with his plain, boring cat-body, so he did this:

As if this could be worse, it's reportedly the cat's third tattoo. A video of the guy tattooing his cat, who clearly could not consent to this, has gone viral. You can watch it here, but it's pretty awful. I warned you (twice):

I'm not even a cat person but after watching this I want to join PETA and become a vegan and adopt all of the cats. All of them!

Apparently I'm not alone, because the video has reportedly sparked a huge backlash on social media (in Russian so I'll just have to believe it). Many have called tattooing a cat "animal cruelty," because that's what it is.

And the experts agree. Elizabeth Skorynina, who runs an Animal Rehabilitation Center in Russia, said:

Any person who has a tattoo can tell you that’s it is a painful -process, and for animals it’s even more so. Sphynx cats have very sensitive skin and any irritation causes them discomfort and pain. If the tattoo artist uses muscle relaxants like xylaxine, the animal’s life is in danger. It switches off all motor functions, but the brain operates normally, so the cat feels everything! Plus, any anesthesia is dangerous, especially if used more that once a year.

If I were this guy's cat, I'd start sharpening my claws in case this happens again.

On Craigslist, what you see isn't always what you get. A "huge sunny bedroom" might actually be a literal shoebox with a hole in it. And a flat screen TV might actually be a wooden board in a trash bag.

Most of us have been burned by false advertising at some point, which is why the internet is losing their minds over one guy's refreshingly honest and hilarious ad for a 2002 Oldsmobile Olero.

Twitter user Snapchat: kel12121 (probably not his real name) tweeted a screencap of a Craigslist ad that had him "fucking dying" and trust me you will be too:

The ad has been retweeted 42K times. That's how much people are loving this honesty.

Here's a closer look at the car, which lives up to this description:

And here's the ad:

Thinking of buying this car? Let's answer some questions you might have:

Is it pretty? Special?"Nothing special or pretty about this car."

Is it rusty?"Rust on the side. I even zoomed in on the rust so you can see it. This bitch rusty."

How much?"This shit is $900. You're getting $900 worth of car."

What about the check engine light? Or this light? Or that light?"Its gone be some lights on in this muthafucka."

Will I find something wrong with it?"You damn right you gone find something wrong with it but as for now it cranks."

But for how long?"This car will last you at least ALL SPRING 2017."

Twitter is LOVING the honesty, bruh.

And this guy wishes all car ads could be this honest:

I just wish all people could be this honest, and I'll start by updating my OkCupid profile. About me: "this bitch rusty."

Dr. Sandra Lee, a dermatologist known on the internet mostly as Dr. Pimple Popper, digs things—cysts, lipomas, hematomas, etc.—out of people's skin all day, for a living. But even she still gets excited about a good ol' fashioned dilated pore of Winer, which is basically just a really huge, old blackhead that has hardened, and is just begging to be removed. SO SATISFYING.

Here's the actual description of a Dilated Pore of Winer: "Named after the Doctor who first described it, a dilated pore of Winer is a hair structure anomaly that appears as an enlarged solitary comedo."

Imagine being lucky enough to have an unsightly skin anomaly named after you!
