| Every day, a staggering 27,000 trees are cut down to make toilet paper. This brand is changing that. |
| Toilet paper is the one disposable product we use daily. It’s wasteful, but it’s not exactly a product you want to reuse |
| Fortunately, honeycomb found a solution: toilet paper made from bamboo. |
| Bamboo’s short fibers are perfect for tissue that’s soft and absorbent. Better yet, it takes just 3 months to grow to full size, meaning it can create 1000s of rolls in the time it would take a single tree to grow back. Honeycomb feels just like regular toilet paper, but doesn’t harm trees. |
| To make it easier to give them a try, honeycomb is giving readers 30% off your 1st shipment for the next 24 hours. Use code UP30. |

| “Whaaat? There’s a name for us? I have never felt like a real boomer—or Xer! I feel normal for once!” |
| The Silent Generation. Baby boomers. Gen X. Millennials. Gen Z. Gen Alpha. Social science and pop culture commentators have spent decades grouping and analyzing the different generations, assigning various qualities, habits and tendencies to each age group. |
| But some people don’t identify with their generation, or at least these particular categories of them. Those on the cusp between two generations often feel like neither aligns with who they are. |
| That’s where Generation Jones comes in. |

| Making her cameo appearance as the iconic dagger-wielding Elektra took some serious work. |
| Folks who follow Jennifer Garner on social media are well aware and fond of her often adorable antics, down-to-earth sense of humor and heartfelt kindness. But let’s not forget—she’s also pretty badass. |
| And nothing proves this quite like a recent video the actress posted to her Instagram showing the incredibly intense workout she endured to get ready for the return of her Elektra persona in “Deadpool and Wolverine.” Seriously, some of these exercises look Olympian level. |
| When Ryan Reynolds and “Deadpool” director Shawn Levy approached Garner about joining the film, she was, as she put it, “fit but not Marvel fit.” Plus she hadn’t worked with sais—Elektra’s signature weapon—in two decades. |

| You can tell by the way they interact with people and ideas. |
| There are some obvious ways to determine if someone is highly intelligent, like when you see them work out a complex trigonometry problem on a blackboard or when they can easily explain the science behind mRNA vaccines or dark matter. |
| But there are also those we meet at social gatherings who immediately make us think they are very smart. Usually, it isn’t because they are making a long-winded speech about the fall of the Roman Empire or explaining quarks. We know they are intelligent because of the way they interact with people and ideas. |
