Video: Doberman Trains Grandma How to Give Proper Scratches
Instagram video shows how Doberman teaches grandma the right way to scratch him
In a hilarious video on Instagram, a Doberman named Arlo teaches his grandma the right way to scratch him. The clip begins with the pet and dog grandmother sitting on a couch while the owner seems to be recording the moment. As per the first step on 'How to Train Your Grandma,' Arlo stares into 'her soul.'
When that doesn't work, he proceeds to the next step, 'Slap the air like you just don't care.' He moves his left front paw up and down heavily, which gives him loving scratches from grandma. Arlo doesn't want her to stop, so he implements the third step, making it 'personal' with a 'side eye.' He makes a similar gesture with his paw and gives a side eye to his grandma to earn more scratches.
Arlo looks proud as an on-video line reads, 'That's the ticket!' Further, the grandmom stops petting her for a while as she concentrates on her device. This makes the dog jump to the fourth step— 'The 'Slap and Judge' —make your face say it all.' After succeeding in enjoying grandma's attention, he moves to the final step. Now, he waves his paws and ignores the old lady, who again obliges to give proper scratches to the pet. At the end, the video mentions that the training has been completed.
Meanwhile, viewers have gone gaga over Arlo's antics in the clip. A user wrote, 'She loves her grandfurbboy and Arlo knows it lol,' while another stated, 'He is so gorgeous. Love how they connect with their hooman.' Many called the dog 'cute,' 'smart,' and 'funny.' Since the upload, the Doberman train scratches video has received over 15K likes.

Channel 4's Bonnie Blue Documentary Reviews See Critics All Saying The Same Thing
On Tuesday night, Channel 4 aired its original documentary about one of the most polarising figures online today, Bonnie Blue. The adult content creator was previously one of the most-followed porn performers on OnlyFans, notably staging an event where she had sex with 1,000 men in the space of a day as part of her work. However, Bonnie – whose legal name is Tia Billinger – was eventually banned from the platform after announcing plans for another stunt which were deemed to be a breach of OnlyFans' guidelines. As the title suggests, 1,000 Men And Me: The Bonnie Blue Story, followed the lead-up to and aftermath of Bonnie's most infamous stunt, as well as examining her impact online. This last point seems to be an issue for critics, though, with many reviews criticising the doc for not being in-depth enough when it comes to its subject or her motivations. Here's a selection of what's being said about Channel 4's documentary on the porn performer… The Guardian (3/5) 'Although [director Victoria Silver's] six months in Billinger's company doesn't provide much in the way of decisive evidence or insight, it does show the star to be as steely in her approach to her career as she is Stakhanovite in her labours [...] But, Silver remains essentially unconfrontational in her approach, and no match for one as robust and unfazed by other people's opinions as Billinger.' The Independent (2/5) 'Sad, uncomfortable, and prurient viewing [...] With little new information gleaned and far too much time taken up by TikTok and Instagram clips of Blue's that already exist online, the documentary feels like little more than a prurient exercise to capitalise on one woman's infamy. Although, maybe it's simply impossible to ever truly know who Blue is.' The Times 'One of the most banal things I've ever seen. Gang bangs are very, very dull, it turns out.' The Mirror 'The new Bonnie Blue documentary may be the worst thing I've ever seen on Channel 4 [...] Bonnie is allowed to say the same things over and over, and many questions are left unanswered. As a viewer, I still had lots of questions, and that is why I feel it is such a weak documentary.' The Telegraph 'It is an uncritical film, with director Victoria Silver occasionally asking the gentlest of questions – 'In terms of feminism, are you not maybe sending us backwards?' – but failing to challenge the answers, as if she is slightly in awe of her subject. The sex scenes are shown briefly, but are edited to look almost glamorous.' The Standard (2/5) 'Profoundly sad viewing [...] who is Bonnie Blue? Is she the provocative adult content creator cheerfully banging her way through man after man in one of her infamous stunts? Or is she Tia Billinger, the girl from Derby who likes doing jigsaws at home? She doesn't seem to know – and by the end of 1,000 Men and Me, the new Channel 4 documentary about her own life, neither do we.' City AM 'Fleeting shots of the hanky-panky are frankly a welcome break from Blue's sexism and wilful ignorance about the dangerous messages she is sending about the roles of men and women in society. In general, the doc is too sympathetic to a dangerous character; it might have been better to have commissioned a multi-voice piece focusing on a broader picture of the sex industry or for director Victoria Silver to have appeared more in the piece to share her own views to provide more balance.' iNews 'The documentary sets out to answer the question of whether Blue is a 'dangerous predator', pandering to male fantasies and perpetuating the patriarchy, or an empowered, sex positive businesswoman having the last laugh. In the end, it's inconclusive. But perhaps that's because she's both.'

Justin Timberlake says he's been diagnosed with Lyme disease
LOS ANGELES — Justin Timberlake has been diagnosed with Lyme disease, the former NSYNC star said on Instagram Thursday. Timberlake shared the news in a post commemorating his Forget Tomorrow tour, which wrapped in Turkey on Wednesday, adding that the disease 'can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically.' Review: Justin Timberlake arrives in Chicago, an artist grown upThe 'SexyBack' singer, who described himself as a private person, wrote he considered ending the tour when diagnosed, but wrote that he 'decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going.' Lyme disease is transmitted by Ixodes ticks, also known as deer ticks. It can cause flu-like conditions, neurological problems, joint paint and other symptoms. In the vast majority of cases, Lyme disease is successfully treated with antibiotics. 'I honestly don't know what my future is onstage, but I'll always cherish this run! And all of them before! It's been the stuff of legend for me,' Timberlake wrote. Timberlake canceled and postponed multiple shows throughout the tour's run, citing health issues including bronchitis and laryngitis. Six of his U.S. shows were postponed from October and November to February, the singer announced on Instagram. Timberlake ultimately canceled the last show of the U.S. leg of the tour in Ohio due to the flu in February. Representatives for Timberlake did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment. Timberlake pleaded guilty to driving while impaired in New York's Hamptons in 2024. As part of his plea deal, the singer gave a public safety announcement in September, urging drivers not to get behind the wheel after drinking. The 10-time Grammy winner ended the post thanking his wife, Jessica Biel, and their two sons, Silas and Phin, saying 'nothing is more powerful than your unconditional love. You are my heart and my home. I'm on my way.' Exactly how often Lyme disease strikes isn't clear. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cites insurance records suggesting 476,000 people are treated for Lyme disease in the U.S. each year. Black-legged ticks, also called deer ticks, carry Lyme-causing bacteria. The infection initially causes fatigue, fever and joint pain. Often — but not always — the first sign is a red, round bull's-eye rash. Early antibiotic treatment is crucial, but it can be hard for people to tell if they were bitten by ticks, some as small as a pin. Untreated Lyme can cause severe arthritis and damage the heart and nervous system. Some people have lingering symptoms even after treatment.

‘And Just Like That...‘ to End With Season 3
Things happen fast in New York City. One week, you're celebrating Carrie and Aidan's breakup, the next you're mourning the loss of your favorite show. In a shocking move, HBO has announced that And Just Like That... will end with season 3. The last episode will air on Thursday, Aug. 14, with no hope of a season 4. 'And just like that... the ongoing storytelling of the Sex and the City universe is coming to an end,' began a statement form showrunner Michael Patrick King, posted on Instagram on Friday. 'While I was writing the last episode of And Just Like That... season 3, it became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop.' Michael continued, saying that he, alongside Sarah Jessica Parker and HBO execs Casey Bloys and Sarah Aubrey, mutually decided to end the series with a two-part finale. 'SJP and I held off announcing the news until now because we didn't want the word 'final' to overshadow the fun of watching the season,' he wrote. 'It's with great gratitude we thank all the viewers who have let these characters into their homes and their hearts over these many years.' It's unclear if And Just Like That... was canceled by the network or naturally came to an end on its own. Viewership for the show's third (and now final) season had reportedly been declining, and it's possible that all the 'love to hate it' discourse became too much to ignore. Or maybe Sarah Jessica Parker and her fellow co-stars, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, Sarita Choudhury, and Nicole Ari Parker were simply ready to say goodbye. Whatever the reason, it sounds like this might be the last time fans ever get to see Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda on their screens—note Michael's use of the term 'Sex and the City universe.' It's truly the end of a television era. And Just Like That... will end with a two-part series finale, with part 1 airing on Thursday, Aug. 7, and part 2 airing on Aug. 14.
