Hollywood has lost one of its hidden giants. Dan Tana, the legendary restaurateur behind the West Hollywood hotspot that carried his name, passed away at the age of 90 in Belgrade, Serbia.
For decades, Dan Tana’s wasn’t just a place to eat—it was the beating heart of late-night Los Angeles. The little yellow house on Santa Monica Boulevard was where stars, moguls, and everyday locals could sit side by side, sipping wine and digging into veal parm at 2 a.m. It was cozy, class

People Don’t Quit Jobs — They Quit the Pain
When employees walk away, it’s rarely because they landed their dream opportunity. More often, it’s because they’re escaping something that’s been eroding their well-being for far too long.

A place that makes them feel unseen when they work hard, unheard when they speak up, and undervalued when they give their all.

Remembering Dr. Danielle Spencer- What's Happening Star Dead at 60
On August 11, 2025, we lost a true icon. Dr. Danielle Spencer—beloved actress, trailblazer, veterinarian, and survivor—passed away at the age of 60. For many, including myself, this loss feels personal.

A company called TNT Crane & Rigging has just been forced to pay a $525,000 settlement after a deeply disturbing federal investigation revealed shocking levels of racism in the workplace. But here’s the kicker: this nightmare unfolded back in 2023.
That’s right. In 2023, five Black employees came forward with allegations of racial harassment so severe that it triggered a full-on lawsuit by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)—and in 2025, justice finally c

Could The TEA App Be Crossing the Line? Why It’s Unfair to Men and Violates Health Privacy
So we know by now that the dating world is already messy and even just straight CRAZY, but a new app called TEA is stirring up more drama than solutions. Marketed as a place where women can “spill the tea” about men they’ve dated, the app allows users to post unverified stories about men, including personal details and even claims about their sexual health (STDs). While this might sound like a way to warn others, it crosses dangerous legal and ethical lines.
