Some cats are lap potatoes. Others? They’re pure muscle wrapped in fur, built like sprinters or gymnasts. If agility were an Olympic event, these five would own the podium. Abyssinian — The Acrobat • Nickname: The Parkour Artist • Lean, long-legged, and wired like a coil. • They don’t walk into a room — they scale it, bounce off the fridge, and perch on the curtain rod like it’s natural. Oriental Shorthair — The Gymnast • Nickname: The Springboard • Insane muscle-to-bone ratio; can leap 6+ feet straight up. • Combine that with curiosity, and suddenly every shelf is a jungle gym. Bengal — The Sprinter • Nickname: The Wild Card • Descended from Asian leopard cats, they’ve got that wildcat engine. • Known for lightning sprints and gravity-defying vertical jumps. Savannah Cat — The High Jumper • Nickname: The NBA Draft Pick • Hybrid of domestic cats and servals. • Famous for jumping up to 8 feet in the air — like dunking on your living room. Turkish Van — The Swimmer • Nickname: The Aquac...

  Sheer dresses have been terrorizing red carpets for what feels like centuries and it seems designers are still not sick of showing off people's chonies as a fashion statement. Jenna Ortega sported this red look and her signature scowl at the Givenchy Spring 2026 show for Paris Fashion Week. The colour suits her quite well but the design feels played out. Charlize Theron also attended the show wearing an outfit from the new collection: What do you think of these 'fits, Peckers? Source: Pascal Le Segretain / Getty

  ► Madonna (67) is getting in on the grifting education game by offering an online course for $30.00 / a month. The course, "The Mystical Studies of the Zohar" is a master class taught by her and some dude at the Kabbalah Center. Um, okay. The name of the class is better suited as the working title for movie mash up of Ghostbusters & Big. Wasn't Zohar the name of the carnival machine in Big? Anyway, Madonna will share the wisdom she's accumulated over the years about Kabbalah, such as the proper shade of red to use for the string bracelet and how to tie it correctly. Actually she said, “I hope this course inspires people to ask more questions about life, and how they can make a positive impact on the world."  The only question I want this course to answer is why she keeps spending money on lousy plastic surgery.   Read More   Comment : According to a press release, "she wants people to enroll so they can accelerate spiritual growth and manifest your h...

Welcome book sloots, to another edition of The Peckerwood Book Club! It's that time once again. What books have you been reading? Tell-tell-tell. Which ones did you love? And which ones made you throw them across the room and exclaim, "Drek!" For my part, I'm always busy enjoying the outdoors in the summer, and while I still keep active in the fall and winter, reading is my absolute favorite pastime during the cold weather months. It's when my Guilt Pile™ of books is hungrily devoured - one after another - and with such speed that I'm usually left wanting around early January. So I'm hoping that I'll find plenty of good recommendations in the comments, and not just for me. I can't be the only one who's a wintertime reading omnivore.  Remember, reading a great, or even just decent, book is  a hell of a lot better for your soul than doom-scrolling when you can't get to sleep at night . For me, r eading before bed cleanses my emotional palette...

 (Full disclosure: I'm not 100% sure if this Chevy is a '55 or a '56, but I chose '55 just because, so please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) 1955 was an eventful year. A 15-year-old Black girl named Claudette Colvin didn't give up her seat on a bus to a white woman. She was pulled off the bus and physically harassed as she was taken to the police station, but she became a plaintiff in a case that led to bus segregation being ruled unconstitutional. The Broadway smash hit "Peter Pan" starring Mary Martin was shown in its entirety on NBC, becoming the most-watched TV special up to that time - and it was IN LIVING COLOR! In 1955, Marian Anderson became the first Black performer to sing at the Metropolitan Opera in NYC, and Nat King Cole had a gigantic hit with a lovely little song that seems appropriate for this time of year: Happy Open Post darlings!
