Betty White chalked up her happy life to kindness ... and hot dogs. Here are a few other ideas to consider trying as we begin 2022. huffpost.com/entry/happy-li…
Be curious about the world and the people around you. Never stop learning or asking questions. Be willing to admit you might not have all — or any — of the answers and that the answers might be different depending on who you are or where you’re at in your life.
Say you’re sorry whenever it’s required, even if (especially if) it’s hard. Recognize you probably could (and should) say it more often than you do. huffpost.com/entry/happy-li…
Allow yourself a few vices, whether it’s Betty White’s aforementioned hot dogs or Hallmark Christmas movies or an occasional handjob from a stranger, and enjoy them without regret or apology or explanation to anyone, even yourself.
Find something you love to do — cooking, traveling, reading, visiting petting zoos, dancing — and do it whenever you can for no other reason than you can and it brings you joy; it calms you; or it lets you feel at home in your body or your head.
Don’t compare yourself or your life to anyone else because that’s just asking for the worst kind of trouble. You aren’t them. They aren’t you. And you have no idea how gnarly their demons might be. huffpost.com/entry/happy-li…
This list is by no means complete and hopefully, you might have a few tips or tricks to share in the comments section to help get us through 2022 (even if it means having to go on without Betty White).

Omicron has raced ahead of other variants and is now the dominant version of COVID in the U.S., accounting for 73% of new infections last week, federal health officials said Monday. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…
Researchers around the world are working tirelessly to learn everything they can about this newest iteration of the virus, which boasts a “Frankenstein mix” of mutations, including more than 30 on the all-important spike protein. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…
Right now, there are still more questions than answers about the variant. We do know that there has been a surge of cases in recent days, and experts believe the variant is more transmissible. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…

"The Daily Show" host Trevor Noah says a New York City hospital and doctor botched an operation last year, causing “permanent” and “severe” injuries that have left him disabled.
huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
In a lawsuit obtained by People on Sunday, Noah accused Dr. Riley J. Williams III and the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan of being “negligent and careless in failing to treat and care for [for him] in a skillful manner.” huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
Noah’s lawsuit also alleged his injuries are “permanent, severe and grievous” and leave him “lame” and “disabled.” huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…

It’s Black Friday and millions of Americans are dropping cash on some of the biggest shopping deals of the year.

But the distinctions between Black Friday and Cyber Monday will be blurred as shoppers ditch risky in-store shopping for online deals. huffpost.com/entry/best-bla…
So why do we give special names to these two days following Thanksgiving anyway? And what is the difference between them?

Here’s what you need to know about shopping on Black Friday vs. Cyber Monday, especially amid the pandemic.
huffpost.com/entry/black-fr…
While Black Friday ads are now “leaked” as early as late October, the same isn’t necessarily true for Cyber Monday.

“We might not see Cyber Monday ads at all, but if we do, they’ll most likely come out the weekend before,” said Julie Ramhold, a consumer analyst at DealNews.

Thanksgiving for Corinne Oestreich growing up was what it is for most children ― with one important distinction. "My family worked really hard to keep the narrative of the dinner between Indians and Pilgrims out of it," she writes. huffpost.com/entry/native-a…
As a Lakota and Mohawk living in an established settler community like the Bay Area, the only time Oestreich was exposed to the story of a dinner between Pilgrims and Indians was when she was in elementary school. huffpost.com/entry/native-a… Image
When Oestreich and her brother got older, they sought information from elders about Thanksgiving and their cultures. “We wanted to honor our ancestors with respectful knowledge and practice,” she says. However, they had to fight the "anger that came creeping in along with it." Image

At least six Republicans who attended the Jan. 6 rally in Washington, D.C., that turned into a deadly insurrection were elected to office Tuesday. Three were elected to state legislatures, and three won positions at the local level. huffpost.com/entry/january-…
Although most have claimed they didn’t breach the U.S. Capitol on that day, all were participants in the demonstration leading up to the attack, an event falsely claiming then-President Donald Trump hadn’t really lost the 2020 election.
Their victories on Tuesday are a possible sign of things to come: HuffPost previously identified at least 57 state and local GOP officials who attended the Jan. 6 rally, many of whom will be up for reelection — and will likely keep office — next year. huffpost.com/entry/57-gop-o…

The Texas Medical Board took “corrective action” last month against a doctor-minister who prescribed hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 without adequately explaining the consequences to the patient, @HoustonChron reported. huffpost.com/entry/stella-i…
Dr. Stella Immanuel made international news last year when she called hydroxychloroquine a “cure” for COVID-19 in a viral video shared by then-President Donald Trump. She told the Chronicle in August 2020 that she had treated more than 400 patients with it.

Clinical trials had shown the anti-malarial drug to be ineffective against COVID-19, and health experts cautioned the public against taking it as a COVID treatment due to associated health risks, including heart problems.
