Iâve been consuming some random aughts content recently and I must say that while our current political landscape is in shambles, itâs interesting how leftward our cultural landscape has shifted since then.

Must report that I have been in MAGA country for four days now and drove 2 hours deep into Tennessee and I have not seen a single Trump sign, bumper sticker or MAGA hat.

I first saw Star Wars in 1997 when I was in second grade and thought it was an old movie. Realizing now that at the time, Star Wars had been out as long as Talladega Nights has been out now.

Solidarity with E. Jean Carroll and all survivors who face legal retaliation and criminal prosecution for speaking the truth. This is both remarkable and utterly unsurprising. Survivors have been jailed, retraumatized, harassed, and sued into silence for far too long.

Lots of terrible things happen in every war but Iâm not going to soon forget the dozens of little girls killed in the opening salvoes of this war. The recourse to warâeven âjustâ airstrikesâshould be regretted by leaders and citizens because every war kills innocents.

This is unsettling. The

confirmed and suspected case count is at 958 already in DRC, with 5 confirmed cases in Uganda. (Uganda doesnât often disclose suspected case numbers.) This has all the makings of an ugly and protracted outbreak.

GOP primaries show Trumpâs hold over that ever shrinking minority of the electorate that approves of him. He owns the party. And that means the party owns him â so now letâs see if their extremist embrace of emiserating corruption & dictatorship wins general elections or if Trumpism is a death grip.

Extremists have used the ongoing war and genocide in Israel and Palestine to promote their white supremacist narratives. They don't care about Jews or Palestinians or Muslims. They see us all as "invaders" who are "replacing" them.

(Not trying to be rude, I'm genuinely curious) What kind of food would you say is uniquely Australian? We have a lot of Australian cafes in New York, but it's mostly regular brunch food (eggs, avo toast, etc.).

We know divorces are expensive, but breakups can be, too. For Bustle, I spoke with three women about the total costs of their breakups...all of which totaled around $20k!!!

Juniper Blessing was only 19 years old when she was brutally murdered. Stabbed 40 times. Stabbed in her hands as she desperately tried to defend herself. This was a hate crime. Every person pushing anti trans rhetoric contributed to this. Shame on all of them.
