The Chinese New Year is February 5th, and we're going into the Year of the Pig. Pigs are associated with wealth (yay!) and good fortune, meaning that this year should be a lucky one. And, hey, we could all use a little good fortune right about now.

The Chinese Zodiac also says that the Earth Pig (2019's snout-faced mascot) enjoys life and entertainment, so we've rounded up some fun stuff to express your inner piggy. They also "aren't the most romantic people and might need to work on that"—so we've thrown in a few pretties to sweeten the deal.

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

Videos Of Squirrels Trying To 'Vape' Are Going Viral—And We Don't Know Whether To Laugh Or Cry

Some viral videos come along that leave us unsure whether we should laugh or cry. In the case of squirrels trying to vape, crying is unfortunately the more likely outcome.

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media.
