Sleeping on yellow stained pillows leaves the internet divided
We all have our comforts to get the best sleep possible, but it turns out a yellow-stained pillow is a staple for a lot of men and it's sparked a debate online. A photo of a yellow-stained pillow from Getty Images went viral went it was posted to Twitter/X by user Cam Thomson (@largemotorcycle). "Gf is mad at me because I have revealed to her The Yellow Pillow. Fellas, i’m sure you all know that this thing is magic," he wrote in the caption. He added in a follow-up tweet: "It’s not my fault the pillow is yellow and bestows upon me the most peaceful slumber." “To me, it’s my most comfortable pillow and a sign of a well-loved item,” Thomson told NBC News, but it has since been "tucked away in storage," as his girlfriend wanted him to throw it away. The tweet quickly began to do numbers, receiving 4.5m views, and over 63,000 likes and prompting a discussion where it there was an apparent gender divide as men were particularly attached to their yellow pillows from their childhood which apparently "give[s] you the best sleep of your life." "Part of being a man is using the same pillow since the age of 10 and never washing it," one person wrote. While another person said: "My life has been a downward spiral since I threw away mine when I was like 23." "I got rid of my yellow pillows maybe a year ago and I legit haven't rested comfortably since," someone else added. A fourth person commented: "Women will never understand the male attachment to their yellow pillow." While the women aren't exactly fans of the yellow pillows and make it known in the discourse. One person wrote: "If you go to his house and see these leave." "Yuck. This is just like my husband’s pillow. He calls it “seasoning," another person said. Someone else added: "Why do all men have a yellow pillow. WASH IT" As this debate roars on, the real question is... why do pillows turn yellow in the first place? It's all to do with the accumulation of moisture such as sweat, drool, wet hair, and even skincare products, according to Sleep Foundation. But a yellow pillow could also hinder your sleep due to the presence of allergens where things such as dust mites, and mildew build up in the pillow and cause allergic reactions. Your skin may also break out when using a yellow pillow due to the bacterial buildup on the surface you rest your head on each night. It is recommended that pillows should be replaced in one to two years or sooner if they begin to discolour.

Surprise discovery shows major feature on Jupiter that experts had previously missed
Despite being by far the largest planet in the solar system, experts are still making surprise discoveries about Jupiter. The planet is only beaten in size by the Sun and as technology has evolved, scientists have sent multiple probes to investigate Jupiter. Despite all the scientific work that has gone into investigating the stripes and swirls that give Jupiters its well-known appearance, experts have only just discovered the existence of a high-speed jetstream above the clouds around the planet’s equator. The jetstream is a whopping 3,000 miles wide and was discovered thanks to the infrared data gathered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) currently orbiting the Sun. Its discovery is giving experts an insight into how the planet’s atmosphere works, as well as its ill-understood weather phenomena. Ricardo Hueso from the University of the Basque Country in Spain is the lead author of the study, published in Nature Astronomy and explained: “This is something that totally surprised us.” He added: “What we have always seen as blurred hazes in Jupiter’s atmosphere now appear as crisp features that we can track along with the planet’s fast rotation.” Scientists have long been aware of light and dark clouds that are known as zones and belts that travel around the planet in different directions and at differing altitudes, but how this occurs has left them baffled. Analysis of the data collected by the JWST revealed the jetstream that was previously only just visible but very hazy. Data confirmed that it sits around 25 miles above the clouds and travels around Jupiter’s equator at around 515 kilometres per hour (320 mph). The researchers compared their data with that collected from the Hubble’s observations of the lower cloud levels and concluded that the jetstream may form part of a weather pattern. Planetary scientist Leigh Fletcher from the University of Leicester, explained: “Jupiter has a complicated but repeatable pattern of winds and temperatures in its equatorial stratosphere, high above the winds in the clouds and hazes measured at these wavelengths.” He added: “If the strength of this new jet is connected to this oscillating stratospheric pattern, we might expect the jet to vary considerably over the next two to four years – it'll be really exciting to test this theory in the years to come.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter How to join the indy100's free WhatsApp channel Have your say in our news democracy.
