The mail is a little slow these days, another side effect of the covid-19 pandemic, as many Americans enter the fifth month of lockdown. Mail carriers—especially the underfunded United States Postal Service—have dealt with an influx of package deliveries and few additional resources and while businesses deal with a…

On Sunday evening, Alex Morse, the 31-year-old openly gay mayor of Holyoke, Massachusetts, issued what can loosely be termed an apology after news emerged that the College Democrats of Massachusetts had accused him of “inappropriate sexual relations with college students.” And his apology, if it can be called that,…

On July 30, a sizable amount of documents were unsealed from a defamation suit between Ghislaine Maxwell and Virginia Giuffre, a woman who was allegedly trafficked by Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein when she was a teen girl, and who wrote a memoir about her time with the pair. The documents, which were unsealed by Judge…

It is personally not my vibe to have a questionably-intentioned reality television couple create an HGTV theme park for middle-class Disney adults and home renovation fans in my town. Still, Chip and Joanna Gaines have successfully transformed Waco, Texas into their personal strip mall through the fortune and fandom…

Covid-19 mask mandates for businesses and localities have turned the fight against a deadly pandemic into an ideological battleground. But while many of the skirmishes are purely partisan, there’s another factor that can determine one’s propensity to wear a mask out and about in public: Good old-fashioned sexism.

Another day, another example of a company failing to practice the inclusivity it appears to preach.

Rachael Ray and her family are safe after escaping a sudden fire Sunday night at their home in Lake Luzerne, New York, ABC10 reports. Warren County Sherriff responded to a call about a “major house fire” after 7:30 p.m. Its immediate cause is unknown, but local investigators do not believe foul play was involved.

Madison Cawthorn is a handsome guy, if your tastes run towards toothy, muscled blondes. In interviews, the 25-year-old Republican practically gleams with youthful vigor, his locks swept back and gelled à la Richard Spencer. Cawthorn’s age is his selling point; he paints his relative inexperience as a key motivation…

It seems Walt Disney World was being a tad presumptuous when they reopened in the middle of a pandemic, just as Florida’s cases started to spike. People did not, in fact, flood back into the Happiest Place on Earth, and thanks to the smaller crowds, the theme park will cut back on hours. I can only imagine this will…

Donald Trump is a narcissist, and so it stands to reason that he would do anything possible to get his giant face hammered into stone in the Black Hills along with a bunch of other possibly better (????) but still definitely racist presidents.

600 years ago, in what was either Smarch or Blipril, all anyone could talk about was Tiger King and potential husband-murderer Carole Baskin. Now it’s summer (maybe), we’ve collectively moved on from Tiger King, and all anyone can talk about is a different kind of pussy, Baskin included. My brain! The discourse!…

Last week, a photo went viral showing a crowded hallway full of maskless students at a high school in Paulding County, Georgia, and to the surprise of absolutely not a single person, the school ended up reporting a covid-19 outbreak. But don’t worry, they’re closing the school...for two whole days.

Amidst rising hostility from Poland’s far-right government towards its queer community, thousands turned out in cities across the European nation to protest the dubious arrest of a prominent local trans activist.

Hulu decided to cancel its modernized, gender-swapped High Fidelity adaptation after one season last week, despite it being, in my opinion, a perfectly fine and sometimes even good TV show. Can that Kat Dennings Hulu show, Dollface, say the same? Honestly, I wouldn’t know. I’ve never seen it, unlike High Fidelity,…

Under the shadow of the United States’ unfathomable covid-19 death toll, which rose for the fifth consecutive week this past week to more than 160,000, ABC News reports, Donald Trump has pushed through a number of executive orders that will still likely fail to provide meaningful relief to those who need it most.
