Life hacks: they permeate social media with lists and videos of tips and tricks to help make your life a little bit easier. Sponge storage, school supply organization...popcorn kernels?

The last one is the life hack that recently went viral on TikTok, where TikToker @sidneyraz share his hack to get rid of the unpopped kernels of popcorn out of a microwave popcorn back before pouring the rest of the fluffy popcorn into a bowl.

The secret? Using the air vent as a make-shift sieve. Before fulling opening the bag, shake the bag, vent down, over the trash or another bowl and the unpopped will fall out while the popped kernels will be too big to fit through the opening.

@sidneyraz

this whole time there was a solution #inmy30s #popcorn #tipsandtricks

Reactions were quick to pop up—pun fully intended—starting with people talking about how they didn't realize people could do this with the unpopped kernels.

Others were asking, if this is such a helpful way to use it, why don't they write that on the pack?

However, there were those who were not interested in this new solution.

Some actually enjoy eating the unpopped kernels at the bottom of the bowl.

And many people really love the half-popped kernels more than unpopped or fluffy.

No matter your popcorn texture preference, this method will at least separate the unpopped kernels in or out, as the case may be.

TikToker Speaks Out About Just How Difficult It Is To Get A Divorce In Mississippi—And Wow

While we're well into the 21st century, it's becoming increasingly difficult in the United States for women to execute what should be basic social rights, like getting a divorce. But states like Mississippi and most of the "Bible Belt" are making it practically impossible for people like Nurse Hadley Vlahos to fully separate from a former partner.

Though Vlahos is known on TikTok and YouTube for being a hospice nurse and wrote about end-of-life care in her New York Times bestselling book, The In-Between with How to Let Go to follow, she's now dedicating much more of her platform to documenting her three-year process of just filing for divorce, not including all that happened in the years before and in the year and a half since.

Trump's Bonkers Quip About What He'd Do If He Coached In The WNBA Just Resurfaced—And It's A Doozy

President Donald Trump is raising eyebrows again after a resurfaced clip showed him trying to bring NBA star LeBron James into the debate around transgender athletes while mocking the WNBA.

The WNBA has been at the center of controversy after Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham said she wants "to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.” She called her beliefs "common sense," stressing that "it’s really important to protect children, and that’s little girls who are also involved in that category."

Trump Hit With Reality Check After Giving Himself An 'A+' On The Economy In Delusional Interview

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed in an interview with Fox News that he should be given an "A+" for the current economy after claiming the "costs are all coming down now."

A recent Gallup poll found that 55 percent of respondents felt their finances were worsening, a level of pessimism exceeding that seen during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2008 financial crisis. This comes as the highly unpopular war in Iran continues to rage, sending gas prices surging. Americans have spent an additional $59 billion on fuel since Trump launched the war.
