I am so confused what the point of this is. Several of them seem to have ordered their outfits from the old International Male catalogue.

A father and son who have gone viral recently for launching an OnlyFans together have posted a bunch of new videos. 41-year-old Dean Byrne has been making OnlyFans content with his 18-year-old son, Bray. Now, they’re quite the infamous duo.

They started out posting workout videos and fans demanded them to post shirtless. The fans kept pushing for more and more skin and the duo decided to launch a joint OnlyFans after getting the approval of their mother/husband.

They’ve insisted their content is “not weird” and have spoken out about their “close bond”, and how they view each other as more of friends than a parent and child. As they’ve got more and more popular, they’ve now launched a YouTube channel, with their first video having just dropped.

In an interview, Bray said he’s seen his dad’s most explicit adult content, and brushed that of like it was very regular. Alongside this, their content has just kept coming. They’ve recently shared a bunch more videos together on Instagram, giving a taster of their more explicit content elsewhere.

Another showed Dean and Bray working out together. The dad and son have previously said that their love for working out together was partly how they decided doing OnlyFans was natural progression for them.

“We both workout together, we both go to the gym together, we’re always horse-playing about, fooling around, often topless, it’s not new to us,” Dean said. “It’s not weird. It’s not uncomfortable, or strange in any way. So we just thought we’d share some of that.”

Let's continue the discussion while we await season 2.

What are some wintery non-Christmas films to watch while we are all snowed in?

Any fans here?

I saw the film this afternoon and loved it. It's doesn't have a big IMDb rating; it hasn't even reached a 7, but I loved it. I think people find it weird and off-putting, but I think it's amazing. The biggest surprise was her loyal brother William nude in bed with another guy before he takes the vow of celibacy that Anna Lee enforced with the Shakers.

One person on IMDb who gave it a 1 complained that they didn't even mention their furniture style they are known for. Seriously.

But all this plus Christopher Abbot's ass.

Man tackeld and shot several times on the ground.

Everybody ready in the central and atlantic and northeast regions? Looking like a humdinger.

I’d love to see him play Richard Pryor in a biopic.

Personally, my favorite is Casey Affleck and my LEAST favorite is fucking Rami Malek.

The Thin Man.

Carry on with your memories of Pine Valley, Llanview and Corinth here.

Does anyone feel depressed listening to/watching this podcast? The actors all seem broken.

Surely you cunts remember the MANY threads a long time ago (mid-2010s maybe?) about the batshit mom who was swilling vodka straight from the bottle, and drove her minivan into oncoming traffic on NYC's outskirts (pretty sure on the Taconic, but I'm not 100%). Well, it fucking happened again! This time with a NYPD 'frau! Do we think Tiffany had a drink or ten en route home, at this Holy Smoke whatever at nearly midnight?

--------------

An off-duty New York Police Department sergeant who was driving the wrong way down the Taconic State Parkway on Thursday night killed a 61-year-old man when her car slammed head-on into his vehicle, the state police said. The sergeant, Tiffany Howell, 47, was driving a 2021 Infiniti south in the northbound lane in Mount Pleasant when she crashed into a 2024 Toyota RAV4 driven by Manuel Boitel, a doorman who worked in Manhattan and lived in Peekskill, N.Y., according to the state police and his family.

Mr. Boitel was taken to Westchester Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. Sergeant Howell, who lives in Warwick, N.Y., was taken to the same hospital but did not appear to have life-threatening injuries, the state police said.

She has not been charged, but the state police said they were investigating the circumstances around the crash and asked that any witnesses call with tips. The state police said they had informed the state attorney general’s office about the crash. Under state law, the office of special investigation under the state attorney general’s office must investigate any instance in which an officer has caused the death of someone “or in which there is a question whether an officer has caused a death.”

The state attorney general’s office said it had opened a “preliminary assessment” of the crash. Sergeant Howell has been placed on desk duty and was stripped of her gun, according to the New York Police Department. She joined the department in 2008 and was assigned to a unit that developed strategies for addressing juvenile crime. The crash happened at 11:39 p.m. Thursday, the same night Sergeant Howell had been scheduled to host a party for the Holy Name Society, a police fraternal organization. Sergeant Howell is listed as a treasurer of the group, which was founded in 1914 and promotes itself as the “largest and oldest religious fraternal organization in the N.Y.P.D.”

Sergeant Howell did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. Her name was listed among a group of officers hosting the party Holy Smoke, which was to be held at Mom’s Cigar Warehouse, a tobacconist and lounge in Scarsdale, N.Y. The party, for which tickets were sold for $150, promised an open bar, “premium cigars,” music and a buffet-style dinner.

A person who answered the phone at the lounge said there had been a party Thursday night but that he did not know if it had involved police officers. The person declined to provide more information but said he would give a reporter’s name and phone number to his boss. It was not immediately known on Friday whether Sergeant Howell attended the party.

Mr. Boitel’s son, Marvin Boitel, 36, said his father had been heading home from work in Manhattan, where he had been a doorman for 30 years. He had finished an eight-hour shift that ended at 11 p.m., Marvin Boitel said. “He was a caring, loving father who worked his whole life,” Mr. Boitel said. “He tried to make sure that he always had food on the table for us.”

After months of speculation, the mystery surrounding Aaron Rodgers’ alleged wife has reached new levels of intrigue.

Friends, family, and teammates are all baffled by the quarterback’s secretive love life, which he has managed to keep entirely hidden.

This has fans wondering whether his marriage is real, and why nobody, not even those closest to him, has met his bride.

“She’s like a phantom,” the wife of one of Rodgers’ teammates told the Daily Mail. “We all want to meet her, to invite her out, get to know her. But we haven’t met her yet. We don’t even know who she is.”

Tiffani Thiessen rose to fame as Kelly Kapowski on Saved by the Bell in the ’90s, but she’s barely changed since her teen idol days. The brunette beauty, who played the iconic Bayside High cheerleader on the beloved teen sitcom from 1989 to 1993, continued her role as Kapowski on the short-lived series Saved by the Bell: The College Years. She finally married Zack Morris in Saved by the Bell: Wedding in Las Vegas in 1994. (Yes, over 30 years ago!) Of course, her post-Saved by the Bell years led Thiessen not too far away from Bayside High. She landed on Beverly Hills, 90210 as the troublemaker Valerie Malone, where she caused chaos for 5 seasons before departing. These days, Thiessen is thriving as a social media influencer and actress known for sharing her delicious recipes online.

ATLANTA (AP) — A group of Buddhist monks is persevering in their walking trek across much of the U.S. to promote peace, even after two of its members were injured when a truck hit their escort vehicle.

After starting their walk in Fort Worth, Texas, on Oct. 26, the group of about two dozen monks has made it to Georgia as they continue on a path to Washington, D.C., highlighting Buddhism’s long tradition of activism for peace.

The group planned to walk its latest segment through Georgia on Tuesday from the town of Morrow to Decatur, on the eastern edge of Atlanta. Marking day 66 of the walk, the group invited the public to a Peace Gathering in Decatur Tuesday afternoon.

The monks and their loyal dog Aloka are traveling through 10 states en route to Washington, D.C. In coming days, they plan to pass through or very close to Athens, Georgia; the North Carolina cities of Charlotte, Greensboro and Raleigh; and Richmond, Virginia, on their way to the nation’s capital city.

The group has amassed a huge audience on social media, with more than 400,000 followers on Facebook. Aloka, who is named after a Sanskrit word meaning enlightenment, has its own hashtag, #AlokathePeaceDog.

One of the hottest guys ever!

They always have so much to complain about you but it's rare that we ever hear you speak about them. They really hated that you were hippies and blame you for pulling up ladders for them.

Were they always such conservative young Republicans?

I just watched Sunset Boulevard for the first time- wow. Gloria Swanson's great comeback. She deserved to win the Academy Award.

Because he won’t show his face. He’s with his “Heated Rivalry” co-star Francois Arnoud, who he’s reportedly banging.

#TeamUndisclosedIllness

I don’t think she looks any different.

Well?

Much MUCH more about everyone's favorite mid century soprano, socialite, actress-singer, and To Tell The Truth star!

And, assorted bitching, pissing, kvetching, and moaning about the dreadfull state of the American Theater and specifically, the dismal current status of the Broad Way...

But, no shit about Audra. Or Gypsy. Or Follies. Or....

Just got back from the theater and I’m absolutely spent. I’m so used to giving and now I get to receive. And give, Timothee did because I’m in tears. Serving up Timothée Chalamet at his most infectiously charismatic, Marty Supreme is a propulsive epic that realizes its sky-high aspirations even while it critiques its indelible hero's toxic ambition. Even with a uniformly excellent and eclectic cast and some over-the-top situations, it’s hard to take your eyes off Chalamet. He’s that mesmerizing. He’s him!

The movie and Chalamet’s performance both reach true greatness among 2025’s best cinematic achievements. Yes, Timothee can be a little much and insufferable with his marketing push and his Kardashian blow-up doll but we can all relate to the desperate need to prove that we are the person we believe ourselves to be. He’s obnoxious but can back it up in talent in spades. This RizGod has rizz to spare.

Marty Supreme is the role Chalamet was born to play. It’s a true banger of a star turn thats so straight fire that it’s bound to be remembered in years to come like early Brando or De Niro performances are. Timmy definitely ate. Pure lighting in a bottle that leaps boldly out of the starting gate and never slows down until it hits the finish line.

Run, no, sprint to your theater to catch this masterpiece by a master thespian before it’s gone. It’s infectious. Catch it before it’s too late! Mr. Chalamet, tear down that wall, clear some space on that shelf for your Oscar!

Years ago, my husband had to deal with a terrible boss—conniving, gaslighting, plotting evil bitch.she made his life hell. He was stayed in that job during the 2008 recession, but then was able to escape and find another in 2010.

He still gets nightmares about her—def PTSD.

We recently found out that she has cancer and it’s not looking good for survival.

Should he send a card that says “Bad things happen to evil people.”?

Chris Pine is in the dark about the future of the “Star Trek” franchise. During a Sundance interview at the Variety Studio presented by Audible, the actor was asked about Paramount’s new leadership and what they have in store for the space franchise. The answer was simple: “You probably know more than I do.”

Is anyone else following the 'We're Knot Done Yet' podcast which started this past Spring, and hosted by Knots Landing stars Donna Mills, Joan Van Ark and Michele Lee ? They also started broadcasting on YouTube back in September (WARNING: visuals of Joan Van Ark and Michele Lee may be disturbing for some viewers).

Overall, it's okay. Seven months in and it feels like they've talked about all they could possibly talk about regarding their time on the show, and what they wish to share about their private lives. The format is pretty simple:

The three hosts introduce themselves, and this gives Lee her chance to make a 'sex joke' of some kind, because they know how funny it is to hear (and barely understand) an 83 year old woman talk sex ! Very cutting edge. JVA reminds Lee they all 'love her', while Mills quickly wants to move on to the podcast.

The next twenty minutes is chatting about the show (JVA and Mills are interesting, while Lee derails every topic to talk about her and try to make everyone laugh). Sometimes they have a guest for the next 30 minutes, though not always connected to the show. Brian Austin Green, who was with the show from 1985-89 was very interesting. Lee doesn't like this part, because she can't usually steal the spotlight - they all ignore her and her improper outbursts.

They wrap the show (usually about thirty minutes long) by telling each other how much they love each other, and can't wait for next week. Hmm.

The most recent episode is where the three talk about their upcoming plans for the holidays. Mills reminded them that between Thanksgiving (she'll be spending it at her son-in-law's family's home) and Christmas (they're all going to Colorado), she has her big birthday coming up and they're all going to Hawaii to celebrate. (She doesn't say her age, but she turns 85 on Dec 11). JVA didn't offer much and indicated it was going to be a 'low key' holiday season for her and her family due to some 'family things' going on ( I hope it's not illness). Lee babbled on about something I couldn't understand (her dentures are awful).

Liza Minnelli is standing by her decision to use an AI voice-cloning company on her first new song in 13 years.

“Today, my first EDM single since The Pet Shop Boys era [was] released on ElevenLabs, a Six Billion Dollar techno behemoth do[ing] amazing things,” she wrote in a Facebook post this week.

On its website, ElevenLabs describes itself as a “curated group of pioneering artists using new technology to expand their sound.” It says users can generate full songs in a matter of minutes using artificial intelligence, while also offering public figures the ability to license their AI-cloned voices.

The 79-year-old EGOT winner went on to emphasize that her new dance track, “Kids Wait Till You Hear This,” does not use AI to generate her actual voice.

“We used AI arrangements. Not AI vocals,” she wrote. “A few trolls didn’t bother to read the truth, check with me or my partners. The shoutouts are all mine!”

The new song features Minnelli speaking various phrases over a techno beat. It’s one of 13 tracks featured on ElevenLabs’ recently released The Eleven Album, which highlights a variety of artists, including Art Garfunkel, blending their signature sound with AI features and arrangements.

In a statement to NBC News, Minnelli further defended her decision to work with the company, saying she was interested in “using my voice and new tools in service of expression, not instead of it.”

“This project respects the artist’s voice, the artist’s choices, and the artist’s ownership,” she added.

$40M to sit a camera and light in front of someone talking or to use the same equipment to follow someone around? I guess the Trump Organization did the accounting on that one.

And as always, hot Rory Gibson being hotly hot.

Finally, Gio's violin string got popped! I'm sure it was beautiful music.

Strike a pose

I stumbled across a YouTube video earlier of a married gay couple who own and live in a historical crooked house in rural England.

They dub themselves "The Crooked Men" which - given their orientation - is perhaps a strange choice of nickname, but they seem nice enough.

I've linked a video below where they appear with a (rather shouty) American woman and give a tour of their home. I felt DL may be interested, given some here seem enthralled by Miss Nicolas Fairford, who pales in comparison to this couple.

They seem a slightly less pretentious version of that Canadian couple who are renovating a chateau in France.

"Victoria/Posh named her first born Brooklyn, because he was conceived in Brooklyn, NYC, and Melanie/Scary named her first born Phoenix, because she was conceived in Phoenix, AZ."

Dataloungers, any suggestions?

Yes, I feel like being an old grumpy cunt this morning.

Daily annoyances of life thread.

The child actress, infamous for playing the Sunshine cadet Daisy on The Golden Girls, as well as Lucy's granddaughter on Life With Lucy.

After the news that she married her dog last weekend, I dove into some of her music, which is pretty good. She also seems to have a nice fanbase including self-proclaimed fans Bill Murray, Elvis Costello, Anne Hathaway, Kristin Stewart and Ringo Starr.

Why is she not a bigger name in the industry?

In honour of the "Sussudio. Phil Collins" thread (which, the OP claims, is the worst song ever) I feel there are many more (un) deserving candidates for that title.

So let's have a roll call of the songs that will live in infamy. I nominate the one linked here...

A TV show about the NYPD is now a legal drama starring the city and Dr. Phil’s son

• McGraw registered “Behind the Badge LLC” in Sept. 2024, about two weeks before Mayor Adams was charged with bribery and campaign crimes that were eventually dismissed by the President Trump’s Department of Justice.

• The contract for the show was signed on the day after a judge dismissed the federal corruption case against Adams.

• “Dr. Phil” McGraw, who hosted a “Behind the Badge” segment on his daytime talk show, made waves last year when he and a camera crew embedded with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for raids in Chicago and Los Angeles.

• ("McGraw Media” or “Producer”) is a foreign corporation having its principal place of business at 4245 Kemp Boulevard, Suite 406, Wichita Falls, Texas 76308-2828.

• But Adams was happy to share his thoughts, praising the Dr. Phil progeny and oddly claiming that it’s all good, despite his own office penning the letter terminating the contract with McGraw on his last day in office.

• The arrangement gave McGraw access to shadow officers and produce a multipart series meant to showcase NYPD work. A separate consulting firm linked to him, Fairfax Digital LLC, quietly collected $500,000 from Adams’ 2025 reelection campaign. State records show no Texas company by that name,

Examples?

Who are the celebs you fancy despite no one classing them as movie star attractive? Mine are Steve Carrell, and Charlie Day from Its always sunny in Philadelphia. It must be the overall package that I like; cos their look isnt what I'd ever fancy. Who are your oddball crushes?

She wakes up early every morning

Just to put her wig on

Because she cares, yeah

Her day, oh, wouldn't be right

Without her salad

She's never had potatoe salad

She's just like you and me

As she stands there suing for money

Part 3

It’s odd to see TV series like Kate and Allie and remember how different life was - and how much we saw as a given we took for granted. Housing, medical care, work/life balance. - so many things are a huge struggle to achieve these days. Yes, we’ve progressed technologically, but in regard to quality of life, we’ve definitely regressed as a society. What happened?

And this isn’t a pining for the good ol’ days nostalgia, I’m talking about the major drop in quality of life for the average American. The fact that Trump is POTUS is symbolic of that inner rot. I also look at how many major stars of the 80s died too young. I feel like as a country we burned ourselves out the last forty years.

Go!

I knew things would get bad with the Bari Weiss taking over, but I never imagined I'd watch them and the broadcast with a fluff piece on Marco Rubio and Tony DeKoupil signing off with "Marco Rubio, we salute you!"

What the actual FUCK???

It's more OnlyFans cosplayer than Dolph Lundgren.

I DK what the hell they were thinking. The point is that he transforms into someone else, not just take off his shirt.

It makes sense!

This some fucked up shit!

This country has the WORST goddamn taste in dogs, I swear.

Labrador Retrievers—those obese, generic oafs—spent 31 years at the top before being dethroned by, of all things, FRENCH BULLDOGS?

In terms of popularity, labs are followed only by their longhaired doppelgängers (Golden Retrievers) and their soft butch equivalent (German Shepherds).

Whatever happened to Dalmatians? Afghans? Chow chows? Pekingese? I rarely even see Old English sheepdogs nowadays (despite knowing of several growing up).

Will the Dems manage to regain the majority?

Will Susan Collins finally lose?

It's usually on a Tues. night. Why on Sat.? And can you imagine what kind of shit show this will be?

Talking about personality, character, personal interests, temperament, and so on, rather than appearance.

Is there a better way to launch this thread than by celebrating Julie Andrews' 90th?

Looks like this is a straight up revisit of the actual Muppet Show and not related to more recent attempts to make the show more "modern" or adult.

I am watching with a cautiously optimistic attitude......it seems like they might be striking a decent balance here between past and present. But I admit, I sobbed a bit when the theme music played. 😭

Today's photo of performative weeping features more gaudy rings than Liberace's bathtub.

I was with my ex for 20 years and during the last 10 I slowly grew to despise him. He was blindsided when I left but not a day goes by where I am not relieved I did not leave.

The author's story below brought back my own memories. To me, Bella's last name says it all.

It also sounds like she deliberately missed a lot of clues and just embraced being an upper middle class soccer mom

PART 1

NY TIMES | Was I Married to a Stranger? I thought I knew my husband of 20 years. I didn’t — and still don’t. By Belle Burden |June 30, 2023, 12:00 a.m. ET

When the lockdown started in March 2020, my husband and I decided to quarantine with our two youngest children, then 15 and 12, at our house on Martha’s Vineyard. We arrived on March 15 and settled in for a long stay, unpacking sweaters and boots, textbooks and cellos.

My husband set up his home office on a card table in the living room, rising at 4 a.m. to pace and worry over the markets. He chopped three different kinds of wood and built gorgeous fires. He made me whiskey sours as the sun set (we believed reports that whiskey would kill the virus). Our older daughter learned to make gnocchi; our younger daughter learned to play Fortnite. We delighted in the off-season use of our house and seeing the island for the first time in late winter light.

A week later, on March 22, at 6 a.m., my husband told me he wanted a divorce. He packed a bag, got in his Jeep and boarded a ferry. We had been married for nearly 21 years.

When he reached New York City, he laid out his narrative: He thought he had wanted our life but didn’t. He thought he was happy but wasn’t. A switch had flipped. He didn’t want our house or our apartment. He didn’t want any custody of our children.

I had no idea he was unhappy. My husband had been a man who went to bed at 9 p.m. and tracked his sleep cycles on a phone app. He was the first to leave a dinner party. He worked, played tennis and came home and watched more tennis on television. He wasn’t affectionate or adoring, but I felt a current of abiding love. He never flirted with other women in front of me. We didn’t bicker. He seemed content and invested in our life. He designed an addition to our garage and planted blueberry bushes in the year before he left.

This (feels like) it won't end well.

Is it really as bad as the shit being reported?

Yay!! Lot of dead people!!

Offering a startlingly candid view into the philosophy guiding vaccine recommendations under the Trump administration, the leader of the federal panel that recommends vaccines for Americans said shots against polio and measles — and perhaps all diseases — should be optional, offered only in consultation with a clinician.

Dr. Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who is chair of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, said that he did have “concerns” that some children might die of measles or become paralyzed with polio as a result of a choice not to vaccinate. But, he said, “I also am saddened when people die of alcoholic diseases,” adding, “Freedom of choice and bad health outcomes.”

In the case of an infectious disease, a personal choice to decline a vaccine may also affect others, including infants who are too young to be vaccinated or people who are immunocompromised. But a person’s right to reject a vaccine supersedes those risks, Dr. Milhoan said.

“If there is no choice, then informed consent is an illusion,” he said. “Without consent it is medical battery.” The polio and measles vaccines are widely acknowledged as staggering successes in public health, credited with preventing disability and millions of deaths worldwide. The polio vaccine in particular has strong bipartisan support, including from President Trump and some Republican lawmakers, who have invoked the horrific time before the vaccine was available.

But Dr. Milhoan said that making the vaccines optional, rather than requiring them for entry into public schools nationwide, as is now the case, would ultimately restore trust in public health.

Outside experts had sharp words for Dr. Milhoan, saying the changes in vaccine policy he was suggesting would result in unnecessary deaths among children.

“He has no idea what he’s talking about,” said Dr. Sean O’Leary, chair of the infectious disease committee at the American Academy of Pediatrics. “These vaccines protect children and save lives,” Dr. O’Leary said. “It’s very frustrating for those of us who spend our careers trying to do what we can to improve the health of children to see harm coming to children because of an ideological agenda not grounded in science.”

After months of speculation surrounding a family rift, Brooklyn has now taken to his Instagram Story to call out his parents for controlling “narratives in the press about our family” and “trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped.”

“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed. I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”

What do you think is going on?

Why don't we pick up some grinders on our packie run? I know I'll be hungry later.

See picture below. :

Shot him on the ground

This time with problematic Karamo. It's a shame that's he pulling this stunt while Queer Eye is celebrating its 10 year anniversary, and its final season on Netflix. Why end a tremendous decade long run with this unnecessary drama?

Queer Eye’s Karamo abruptly pulled out of a cast interview with CBS Mornings just one hour before airtime, citing fears of being “bullied.”

The Queer Eye cast reacted to the move live on the air as Gayle King read his statement.

And that is a fact!

Anybody follow Nathan on IG or other platforms? He's not only smart, but when a really stupid MAGAt posts something, he WILL rip them to shreds if they are toothless or look trashy. He's hysterical.

No, I am not him, have never met him, but he is good source to cut through the mainstream news bullshit.

How do you keep the sex spicy?

I’ve been with my partner for 10 years. Sadly the sex has become mutual masturbation. It used to be so much more exciting.

I know friends who opened their relationships with mixed success. Others added drugs, with mixed success. Not sure we want to do either.

Any other advice?

Is anyone else here a fan?

I've always liked her work

Have a preference? Who gets you hotter than summer in Ho Chi Minh city?

For me, on the west coast, everything under the sun except for my actual ethnicity. (i.e. Mexican, Jewish, Armenian).

I don’t mean discreet moistened eye corners. I mean blubbering like a baby.

For me it’s Stan Rogers’ “Mary Ellen Carter.” Gets me crying without fail every single time.

What’s yours?

Has he come out yet?

That’s a shame.

Wow! Over 40 years ago!

I learned recently that Jim Hartung died a few days ago. He, Peter Vidmar, Bart Conner and Mitch Gaylord in their tight uniforms entertained my active imagination many evenings.

Any memories of these guys ??

And he smashed Randy "Macho Man" Savage as well?

Two hours and that's it!

Carry on here….

Bill Maher complained about certain Donald Trump critics on his recent podcast episode, claiming that people are so obsessed with Trump that they make their hated of him their “whole personality.”

On Monday’s episode of Maher’s “Club Random” podcast, the comedian told guest John Stamos that the way Trump has dominated the national conversation “for over a decade” is a “phenomenon we have never seen before.”

“Maybe I’m the Trump whisperer… He’s a guy from New York, OK?” Maher added. “He doesn’t want to be with a bunch of fucking rednecks and simpletons, you know? Does he like ass-kissers? Yes, he does.”

It’s about a surgeon who decides to leave Boston and become the local Doctor for a small town where he spent summers growing up. He’s a damaged, cynical person while the locals are all sweet, open and loving people, mostly elders. It’s a dramedy and it’s surprisingly charming. And very clean and wholesome. They don’t even say any “bad words” on the show.

The small town is absolutely charming and beautiful and part of why I enjoy watching.

It has positive vibes and energy, and in these times we are in, it’s been comforting to me. I figured I’d recommend it.

The first episode is a bit of slow , introducing us to everyone, but episode 2 is when it gets very cute and charming. Episode 3 just came out this week so I’m watching it now. The cutest!!!

It’s actually an American remake of a British show called Doc Martin. Only very different but the premise is similar.

*fans caftan*

I'm one of Guinan's large flat-topped hats.

After living as a Caucasian white male for 40 years, I’ve finally dropped the “Cauc” and am now just Asian and a lesbian woman.

As a newly minted Chinese lesbian, I want my home to be an Asian domicile that’s reflective of who I am now. Please help me redecorate with exotic and exciting stylings from the Orient! I’m open to any and all suggestions. Ni hao, style mavens! 🥠

Many were worried that Ethan Hawke is far too tall to represent Hart, but as can be seen in this still from the movie, with Hart and his unrequited love, tall WASPy music student Elizabeth Weiland, they seem to have adjusted Hawke accordingly.

Man was Hart tiny, or what?

It’s that time of year to put in your predictions. Some will make me sad and others will have me walking around that day with a smile. So, since there seems to be a consensus that celeb deaths come in threes(not true), let’s choose 3 celebs that might have some sort of connection. Just for the fun of it for such a morbid topic. Connections could be obvious or maybe not so much.

I’ll start with a popular one.

Donald J. Trump - Executive Branch

Clarence Thomas - Judicial Branch

Mitch McConnell - Legislative Branch

Or

Frankie Valli

Frankie Avalon

Frankie Grande

His boobs are nice and round

Miaow?

“Tanya” makes me imagine a loud, ignorant person with body odor.

“Dwayne” is the male version. Same trashy image.

What’s been your experience on Reddit? I gave it a try, and wow, r/askgaybros and r/askgaybrosover30 are something else. Half the posts sound like they’re written by emotionally stunted freshmen who just discovered what anal is. The lack of basic knowledge about gay life, culture, HIV, sex, relationships, is genuinely shocking. And the closet cases? Too stupid to live.

The first time I answered one of those painfully clueless questions, I ended up with –55 karma. I didn’t even know what Reddit karma was at the time. Apparently, it means Reddit decided I wasn’t fit to post for a while.

So seriously, are there any worthwhile subreddits, or is the whole site just the world’s most pathetic group chat? Moments like that make me appreciate what a great bunch of ossified bitches you all are, DL. Gracias.

President Trump says CNN and the Wall Street Journal and many other news outlets are fake news. What do you think the penalty for lying to the American people should be?

I had forgotten all about this one.

This looks good. Looking forward to what is revealed about Dorothy, Arlene, Truman, Sinatra, and more.

First they came for the closets. Then they took the bath tubs. Now, hotels are stripping away the only thing separating us from the animals: the bathroom door.

Guests are waving goodbye to the luxury of a fully-closable opaque barrier between the restroom and bedroom, checking in to find sliding barn doors, curtains, strategically placed walls and other replacements that aren’t as proficient in the art of noise and smell containment.

In some cases, they’re not even good at hiding the view.

Meredith Maines, who earlier this year was pictured with King Charles' aides in London, has left after ten months of working for the Sussexes. This marks the eleventh major departure in the couple's PR and Communication department since moving to the US in 2020. Additionally, the Sussexes had to cut three staff members of their Archewell Foundation just before Christmas due to the charity's financial difficulties.

Call it what it IS.

I feel so bad for the guy my god...... There's no winning for him in this. Not against Taylor Swift's PR machine not to mention her millions of worshipping cultists.

There's no recovering from all this, he's finished. Hollywood had ONE seemingly genuine and good-hearted person who tried to do good and this is what they did to him.

Now in snowy Hokkaido!

Wall Street Grapples With New Risk: A European Buyers’ Strike

By Geoffrey Morgan and Julien Ponthus 01/24/2026 09:00:00 [BN]

(Bloomberg) -- US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told the elites gathered in Davos that the Trump administration believes globalization is “a failed policy” that left America behind. A day later, his boss, President Donald Trump, predicted the US stock market would double from records he openly took credit for.

There’s a stark tension lurking between the lines spoken by the two American billionaires: Foreign investors have had an insatiable appetite for US stocks over recent years, playing a huge role in driving benchmark indexes to the records Trump likes to boast about. Europeans, in particular, have been voracious buyers.

And while Trump lowered the temperature toward Europe, concern lingers on Wall Street that his belligerence and belittlement of the continent could take some of the biggest buyers of US equities out of the market. There are signs, in fact, that’s already beginning to happen.

“We are seeing more clients wanting to diversify away from the US. We saw that trend start in April 2025 but it has somewhat accelerated this week,” said Vincent Mortier, chief investment officer at Amundi SA, which is Europe’s largest asset manager with €2.3 trillion ($2.7 trillion) in assets under management.

He said any disentanglement will end up being a “long and complex process,” where clients need to figure out how they want to depart from main benchmarks, how they want to hedge against the US dollar.

European investors own roughly $10.4 trillion in US stocks — and more than half of that total is owned by investors in the very eight countries Trump threatened with tariffs, a move that contributed to a 2.1% drop in the S&P 500 on Tuesday.

To put those numbers in context, Europeans own 49% of all US stocks held by foreigners — a big enough chunk to pose a threat to the market, Scotiabank portfolio and quantitative strategist Hugo Ste-Marie wrote in note.

#OliviaWilde says Gen Z wants to see less sex in movies and TV because they “don’t want to see inauthenticity anymore.”

“The way that sex has been portrayed in film for a long time hasn’t been particularly realistic,” Wilde tells Variety at #Sundance.

Nearly half of Gen Z (48.4%) says there’s “too much sex and sexual content in TV and movies,” per a recent UCLA study.

[quote]Business leaders projected optimism this week about artificial intelligence creating jobs despite stark warnings from global economic officials and rising worker anxiety about the technology's disruptive potential. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang characterized the current AI buildout as "the largest infrastructure buildout in human history," predicting six-figure salaries for electricians, plumbers, and construction workers without needing "a Ph.D. in computer science."

[quote]The optimism stood in contrast to warnings from International Monetary Fund Managing Director, who described AI's impact as "hitting the labor market like a tsunami." The IMF calculates that 40% of jobs globally are affected by AI, rising to 60% in advanced economies.

[quote]As Davos wrapped Thursday, Elon Musk offered a philosophical note: "For quality of life, it is actually better to err on the side of being an optimist and wrong, rather than a pessimist and right."

What the fuck is wrong with these stupid autistic little bitches?

They're the ones obsessing over age gaps. They call themselves "queer" and then proceed to feel entitled to tell gay men who, what, and how they should feel.

This is what feminism has led to?

Any fans here?

Minaj attacked Lemon, who is gay, online after he was criticized by the Trump administration for reporting on a protest inside a Minnesota church.

"Kristen and I were in that dressing room with our pencils, while Matt Bomer was sitting in the other corner, wanting to say hi to us," he said. "And we're like, 'We're in the middle of something.'"

Will Pedro Pascal finally shatter his glass closet?

He seems like a pompous ass and he talks gibberish, but he certainly seems very satisfied with himself. Acts like t he rest of us are just dumb if we don't "get" his perspective on the economy. Meanwhile the dollar is circling the drain.

Barron Trump was on a FaceTime video call a year ago with the woman, who cannot be named, when he saw a man repeatedly punch her, Snaresbrook crown court in Greater London was told on Wednesday.

In the transcript of the call to the emergency operator on 18 January 2025 in which he alleged an assault, Trump said: “This was happening about eight minutes ago. I just figured out how to call someone … it’s really an emergency.”

In the call Trump appeared to be frustrated by questions about how he knew the alleged victim. He said: “I mean these details don’t matter, she’s getting beat up.”

He was then asked by the operator: “I need to take information from you so how have you come by this information?”

He said: “Uh I got a call from her with a guy beating her up.”

The operator said: “How do you know her?”

Trump replied: “I don’t think these details matter, she’s getting beat up but OK fine, also I met her on social media, I don’t think that matters.”

The operator said: “Can you stop being rude and actually answer my questions. If you want to help the person, you’ll answer my questions clearly and precisely.”

After saying he did not know the name of the man allegedly carrying out the assault, Trump said: “Sorry for being rude.”

Give us your wisdom. Did they wait too days after meeting to move in together?

It sounds like there *might* be a little brutal truth in it, but...but...what's your prediction?

"My book began as a series of recorded conversations with my dearest friend, Michael Feinstein, over the past 15 years. I used to say, 'Michael, tell it when I’m gone!' Yet, as countless people I loved lost their lives to drugs and alcohol, I knew it was time to open up and truly let you inside my heart."

"In these pages, I share my loves, heartbreaks, triumphs, the laughter that keeps me going, and my lifelong challenges with what we now call SUD (Substance Use Disorder) - and yes, how I’ve thrived in recovery for over 10 years. If my book helps even one person find their way to healing, then telling my story is worth it. I'm taking all the tremendous love you’ve shown me over the years and giving it right back to you."

Even hate watch it? I do kind of find her mysterious, in that she says almost nothing publicly. We all know she hates her husband but he doesn’t seem to know. She doesn’t care that we know. She is still very good looking at 55. Her son seems very gracious when (very rarely) talking filmed. It was hilarious when young Barron Trump spoke with a thick Slovenian accent. Her marriage makes her seem corrupt through and though. At least we know that she doesn’t have sex with her husband and hasn’t no doubt since Barron was conceived.

He-Man is supposed to be a huge gigantic guy like the guy in the middle of the photo. (Dolph was 6’5”). Nicholas should have only played Prince Adam and they should have used a huge guy to play He-Man. This just looks stupid.

An imperfect but highly original movie starring Mimi Rogers who gives a haunting portrait of a pleasure seeking woman drawn into a mysterious Christian cult.

Mimi received controversy due to her personal adherence to Scientology, but according those involved her being a Scientologist played no part in her casting.

Surprisingly, for a preachy film it does not judge the moral actions of its characters but keeps things ambiguous so the character's slide into fanaticism and hyper-religiosity seems credible.

One weakness is the film feels as if it was written as a stage play, and this becomes especially obvious in it's third, and devastating, final act.

When Joan Crawford was asked during an interview how she liked working with Lucille Ball on the show, her response was, "And they call ME a bitch - Lucy can out-bitch me ANY day of the week!"

William Frawley appeared on My Three Sons (1960) for a few seasons, which started after I Love Lucy (1951) wrapped, but it was produced by Desilu. Since this show was filming in the same studio, and since Frawley still held a grudge against Vivian Vance, he would hurl empty movie cans through the window at her, and pull other assorted pranks.

Pretty much everyone who worked with Lucy thought she was abusive. That is except for Carol Burnett, Gale Gordon and William Frawley. Carol Burnett was almost BFF with Lucy, but she dio admit Lucy had a tough side. In interviews she would say Lucy had a tough side because she had to be like that to successfully run her show, but she was just being honest. Lucille notoriously favored and doted on Gale Gordon; it she was abusive with everyone else she worshipped the ground he walked on. And ironically, though she fought with everyone else, she was thick as thieves with Bill Frawley. It was Vivian Vance Frawley hated.

Lucille Ball was notoriously abusive to her co-stars. Joan Blondell made an appearance on the show, and Ball told her she "stunk" in-between takes. Blondell responded in front of the audience: "F--k you Lucille Ball!"

According to the Lucille Ball biography "Ball of Fire", Dede Ball, Lucy's mom, and Lucy were at a social event, and they were introduced to a guest. At one point in the conversation, Dede warned the guest, "Be careful with Lucy! She's a bitch!", and Lucy replied, " No I'm not! Only when I'm working." To which Dede replied, "When else does anybody see you?"

Gossip columnist Liz Smith did not like Lucy at all either: "I'm sorry I ever met her", she said.

In the Lucille Ball biography, "Ball of Fire", Candy Moore said Lucy would routinely embarrass her in front of co-stars and other actors on the set when they were at rehearsal by teasing her and making oft-color jokes. (Today, in the Me Too era, we would call this sexual harassment). She also said Lucy was very abusive to her directors.

With a great cast, this may be good!!!

I'm the tureen lid. When Jeanne forgets to put me back on, all true cinéastes shiver.

Hawt.

Gotta say for the last 10-15 years nearly every gay man I’ve spoken with in private kept saying that the over reach of the new Queers is going to result in backlash against gay men. That gay men will bear the brunt of the backlash as being homosexual is so intrinsically threatening to young men.

Well here it is, just as we said, and there is no such rise in nonbinaryphobia….. as it doesn’t exist, non-binary I mean. The fantasy of a queer identity that is really for some anxious autistic females to play at being victims on social media has real costs to us. As they back away from that identity in droves…having expended nothing and achieved nothing.. we are left with the hangover.

I think the article itself completely misunderstands homophobia and totally skirts around the real issues. But hey, it is the NYT’s and they’re still a combination of conservative corporate stooge and progressive woke mindset.

I put this in the Disco thread, but my mind is so effectively blown that I thought it needed its own.

I love how they make sure to tell the audience that Joan doesn’t need money and no matter how much money the studio offers her, she simply doesn’t want to work - I guess outside of an episode on a sitcom that has run its course. Her agent tells us how the studio is flooded with letters demanding more Joan Crawford pictures! lol Joan reportedly drank a lot during production because she was scared to death of Lucille Ball. Joan is totally white knuckling it through the episode. This was towards the end of the series. Vivian Vance returned for a few guest appearances.

I kinda wish Joan had tried to do a sitcom like Bette Davis did. It would have been a camp classic.

[quote]The Republican National Committee voted Friday to move forward with holding a midterm political convention, an unusual GOP festival that President Donald Trump would headline in hopes of rallying supporters to focus on the critical fall fight for control of Congress.

[quote]To fulfill Trump’s wish of staging a political convention later this year, Republican leaders had to change party rules that previously only called for a convention during presidential election years. They did so by unanimously passing a resolution Friday during the party’s winter meeting in Santa Barbara, California, an RNC official said.

[quote]A memo obtained by CNN said the rule change allows for the “possibility of an America First midterm convention-style gathering aligned with President Trump’s vision for energizing the party this fall.”

Should the Dems do the same? Or, not a convention per se but a televised gathering to rally the voters. Lay it all on the line. Democracy depends on it.

If his manic social media behavior lately is any indication, Donald Trump is still dreaming big about that arch that nobody asked for.

The president shared a trio of renderings Friday of what he apparently wants the (very much unapproved) arch to look like. All three images feature prominent Corinthian columns; two have statues in addition to the columns; and one, presumably Trump’s favorite, is absolutely drowning in gold ornamentation.

No caption accompanied Trump’s post.

Trump told Politico construction is expected to begin in early 2026, though it's unclear the president can unilaterally move such a project forward without the approval of Washington, DC's city officials.

Has the world ever been crazier or as uncertain / upside down as it is now?

I hope this haunts him. To the point where it shows up in his obit.

What an excellent season. I couldn't find a post about it. Insanely popular in the UK, this season was so much better than the UK Celebrity season. Rachel and Stephen are so fun to watch.

The terrifying and dangerous career of Zoomer Influencing has claimed another young life. This time it's Indonesian Influencer Lula Lahfah, 26.

The influencer was found dead Friday evening inside an apartment building in the Dharmawangsa neighborhood of South Jakarta, according to security officers at the scene.

The news was confirmed by a Metro Jaya Police spokesperson, who said South Jakarta Police are still processing the crime scene and coordinating with Lula’s family as the investigation continues.

CNN reports Lula had been dealing with several health issues and even spent New Year’s in the hospital for physical discomfort she was experiencing.

They are preparing for a post-Trump world (he’s half-dust)

They will need a scapegoat to absolve themselves of their own culpability.

The story about the Lauder heir being responsible for the Greenland fiasco coming out… it creates a very convenient narrative

Blake Lively sent a letter to former lover Ben Affleck asking for a favor.

“I’m writing with a zero pressure ask. I’ve just come out the other side (well almost) of the most upsetting experience I’ve ever had on a movie. The making of doc of this film would be more interesting than the movie could ever be. It’s like if Wild Wild Country, Fyre Festival and Going Clear had a baby with The Room … Room also works though,” Lively wrote.

She added, “Anyway, I ended up rewriting and restructuring the entire script, I also ended up having to direct the movie via the chaotic clown ‘director’/actor/producer/financier/studio head at the center. Yes that’s all the same person. oh and did I mention he and everyone he had on the movie is in a cult. If I would’ve just formally directed it, it would’ve been much easier, but having to troubleshoot through his taste, ego and preexisting decisions made it so difficult and that’s not even touching on any of the wild HR issues and beyond. Anyway, now I’m in a bake off with him in the edit. He’s been editing since, I kid you not, July, and they gave me 10 days to do my own pass. We have a bake off in 12 days. But I have a friends and family preview in NY on Saturday in the meantime so I can get one round of notes or feedback before we duke it out.”

Lively then asked Affleck if he would be “willing to watch the movie and give me any ideas or notes.”

“If your wife or kids are around, I’d love their opinion also (fyi it does cover domestic violence so no one is caught off guard). I’m such a fan of Jennifer’s, I’ve told her as much every time I’ve met her, and it would be an honor to have her take,” Lively added. Affleck was still married to Jennifer Lopez at the time of the email.

Lively reiterated that there was “zero pressure” to do what she asked but that she “just really want this to work after all I’ve put into it. This movie nearly killed me. And I can think of very few people who would be as prescriptive and insightful as I know you would be.”

The actress also alleged that Reynolds asked Matt Damon for his input as well: “Ryan asked Matt to watch also so I think he’s watching this weekend. Good men showing up. I’m beyond grateful for that. Also. can you believe Jason Bourne is watching my movie!?!?! I’ll get you an autograph one day. Don’t worry.”

Trump is the lowest form of slime and should have his teeth kicked in. He also suggested the U.S. should have “put NATO to the test” to advance his domestic agenda on immigration after provoking outrage with his comments that NATO troops “stayed off the frontlines” in Afghanistan.

“Maybe we should have put NATO to the test: Invoked Article 5, and forced NATO to come here and protect our Southern Border from further Invasions of Illegal Immigrants, thus freeing up large numbers of Border Patrol Agents for other tasks,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform Thursday night.

I don't think she's much of an actress, but I kind of like her vibe. Not charismatic, but certainly a peculiar presence. I guess that, along with nepotism and co-headlining a successful franchise is enough to give someone a pretty strong career - at least for now.

I've been laid up with the flu for the past week and have gone down the YouTube rabbit hole watching police bodycam videos, everything from DUI arrests to drunks getting kicked out of bars to ex-girlfriends stalking their ex-boyfriends. Most of the videos are hilarious (and most take place in Floriduh, of course), and I love how all the people who get arrested inevitably shriek, "I didn't do anything!" as the handcuffs are placed on them. It's also fun watching deadbeats without a dime scream, "I'm calling my attorney," as if these WalMart rejects have a lawyer on retainer.

Anybody else get oddly entertained by these?

The chair of the federal government's vaccine panel has spent the past 24 hours casting doubt on the need for polio and measles vaccines.

CNN’s Harry Enten said Monday that Democrats have “no real light at the end of the tunnel.” (Watch the video below.)

In a chat with “News Central” anchor John Berman, Enten, CNN’s senior data reporter, broke down the history-making vulnerability of the Democratic Party after last week’s election. It will likely be one of just a few times in the last 90 years that Democrats don’t hold power in either the White House or any chamber of Congress, he said. What’s more, President Joe Biden has the lowest approval rating of any departing Democratic incumbent since Jimmy Carter in 1980.

“When you make the comparison to Jimmy Carter on popularity, you know that you’re in bad shape,” Enten said.

It all adds up to gloom and doom for a party reeling from Republican Donald Trump’s victory over Democrat Kamala Harris, a Republican flip in the Senate and a likely continuing majority in the House.

“The bottom line is, everywhere you look, the Democrats are in this deep, dark state because they have no heir apparent, the incumbent president’s unpopular, and they hold no levers of power in Washington, most likely come January,” Enten said.

“For Democrats, there’s no real light at the end of the tunnel,” he added.

Enten and Berman mentioned that the party has at times rebounded from weakness fairly quickly, but right now any sliver of optimism is sunk in a pit of despair.

“It’s always darkest before it’s pitch-black, as John McCain once said,” Enten said.

The Washington National Opera on Friday announced that it’s leaving the Kennedy Center, where it has performed for decades, in the latest high-profile departure following Trump’s efforts to reshape the iconic venue.

“To ensure fiscal prudence and fulfill its obligations for a balanced budget, the WNO will reduce its spring season and relocate performances to new venues,” the Washington National Opera said in a statement. “This is a decision centered on doing what is best for the WNO going forward after an amicable transition.”

Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran

Jan 21

The World Economic Forum held annually at Davos has always been a marvel of collective self-esteem: thousands of powerful people flying in on private jets to discuss the world’s problems—most of which are sitting in the room. I went there once. ABC News sent me in January 2018 to cover President Donald Trump’s first trip to Davos. I remember two things: How beautiful that place is, and how the attendees even then sensed that Trump’s arrival sounded the death knell to their hopes for a better, more cooperative world, a vision that somehow still clung to the conference, despite the billionaires, the jets, the feverish networking.

Davos sits high in the Alps. Wood and stone chalets tucked into pine forests, peaks rising sheer and serene. On a sunny, day, those mountains reach into an impossible electric blue sky and nearly blind you; the human drama below them seems puny and temporary. It makes one think—or should.

Donald Trump went to Davos this year and did what he usually does: he ranted. Trump always mistakes volume for power, domination for leadership, and grievance for strategy. We are all used to it. But this time, it seems different.

The speech Trump that delivered in Davos was not simply a rambling, campaign-style entertainment, or even a laundry list of his many boiling resentments. It was something far more consequential than that. It was a declaration—explicit, unembarrassed, and revealing—of a worldview that marks the end of an era for American power.

Henry Kissinger—a keen-eyed, aphoristic student of history and power—once said that “Trump may be one of those figures in history who appears from time to time to mark the end of an era and to force it to give up its old pretenses.” He was 95 years old when he said that, and he was right. Trump fits Kissinger’s description perfectly.

What Kissinger did not say—because it is not always true—is that such figures are often builders, sensing in their historical moment new opportunities for power and stability, success and coherence. They replace what they destroy with something new.

Napoleon ended dynasties—and built the modern centralized state. Franklin Roosevelt rejected generations of laissez-faire economics in America, and wrote a new social contract for our country: the New Deal. Deng Xiaoping ended Maoism in China, and invented state-led capitalism with harsh political control.

Donald Trump is an ending without a beginning.

Christopher Nolan is weighing in on Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s latest film, The Smashing Machine, which is underperforming at the box office, and the Dark Knight director is showing his support for Johnson.

Nolan recently appeared on an episode of the podcast The Director’s Cut with Smashing Machine director Benny Safdie, who was in Oppenheimer, which won Nolan his first best director Oscar. During the discussion, Nolan praised Johnson’s performance as “heartbreaking.”

“I think it’s an incredible performance,” Nolan continued. “I don’t think you’ll see a better performance this year or most other years.”

This is a terrible time to be having one. But did you ever wake up one day and burn your whole life down? Or maybe just change careers?

"This is the [sic] one of the biggest honors of my life," says Smith.

Jaden Smith is to become the men's creative director at Christian Louboutin, a new role created for him by the French fashion house. The New York Times reports that Smith will move to Paris to undertake the position and will oversee the creation of four collections a year across shoes, leather goods and accessories, along with developing campaigns, events and immersive experiences. His first capsule arrives online and in stores in January, with a full debut collection due to launch at the men's fall shows that same month.

"This is the one of the biggest honors of my life, and I feel a lot of pressure to be able to live up to everything that Christian has done for the house, and also stepping into such a serious role," Smith told WWD. "When he reached out to me, I was just blown away, because of how similar we are and how much we like to do things in a similar manner. I can't wait to show the world what we've been working on."

Louboutin will move aside from the men's side of the business and focus on women's, instead. Speaking to the Times, he said Smith's approach to the work has already impressed him.

"We will start a conversation, and then eventually it needs to go to the team. So Jaden will lie on 15 to 20 big pillows with his computer, and in the nicest way, he makes you understand that he needs to be by himself and do his thing," he told the newspaper. "Then, not even an hour later, he has a presentation. He's so quick at illustrating what we have been discussing or what he has in mind. It's not by accident that he's a musician. The computer is like his piano."

In addition to making music (his most recent album CTV3 dropped in 2020) Smith has a long history in the fashion world. He has previously modelled for Louis Vuitton, created a denim line with G-Star in 2018, and established his own brand, MSFTSrep

Just a few days ago he led Erika Kirk's Turning Point jamboree in a heartfelt prayer. Why must the authorities persecute this penitent follower of Christ???

For most of its history, fur was the ultimate status symbol. But in recent decades it's also become controversial due to concerns around animal cruelty. Now, it’s making something of a comeback as climate-conscious consumers weigh up the merits of wearing vintage fur over faux alternatives. CNN Senior Style reporter Rachel Tashjian explains why.

Mostly, it's vintage fur...

Federal prosecutors announced Friday that the head of a South Los Angeles charity was arrested on wire-fraud charges, accused of stealing more than $23 million meant to help people experiencing homelessness — and spending some of it on luxury travel, including stays at a Maui resort featured in HBO’s “The White Lotus.”

Authorities say Alexander Soofer, 42, ran Abundant Blessings, a Hyde Park-based nonprofit that received more than $23 million in homelessness funding between 2018 and 2025. Prosecutors allege he pocketed at least $10 million for a $7 million Westwood home, private jet trips, designer shopping and a vacation property in Greece.

He should have pulled a Katie Couric and done it live.

It’s a game where you have to make a chain of words.

Chris Noth reveals Sarah Jessica Parker cut him off after sexual assault allegations emerged against him:

“We’re not friends, I think that’s pretty obvious… you know me, you’ve known me all these years, give me a call so I can give you the real scoop about this. […] I just know if it had been on the other hand, I wouldn’t have done that.”

Grindr has become central to a case that has left many grappling with questions about consent, responsibility, and accountability.

Call me naive, but I had no idea that people actually comment on celebrities Instagrams and make fun of their appearance(s) And I am not talking troll accounts, but real , normal people using their main Instagram accounts.

I could not do that to someone-

Kelly Bensimon came across in my feed and I watched it- I could see immediately that she fucked with her cheeks so I looked at the comments and EVERY comment is making fun of her face.

I kind of dislike the crazy bitch, but I could NEVER do that make fun of someone's appearance.

We are a vicious species.

He's obviously the wrong PM for the times, and I'm not sure why Labour can't put someone stronger and more dynamic in charge of the party.

I'm from the US so I confess I don't know nearly enough about the British parliamentary system to know how this works, but I do know that sometimes in the past when ruling parties have had unpopular PMs in charge (Thatcher, Johnson, May) they've been able to remove them before they lose a major election to another party.

Is it just because there's not enough incentive for other party members to get rid of him yet, and so they're being loyal to him for that reason? It seems from here like there needs to be a strong move soon against Farage and the Reform UK party or the UK is going to be in the same pickle we're in in the USA.

An image of a woman arrested by US authorities and shared by the White House, external has been edited using artificial intelligence, experts have told BBC Verify. In the original picture posted by Noem the woman appears to be expressionless but in the later, AI-manipulated image, she is shown to be crying. The White House’s post on X has now gathered almost five million views.

The AI-manipulated image was shared about 30 minutes after the original was posted by US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. When we asked the White House to comment on the image they directed us to an X post by deputy communications director Kaelan Dorr.

“Enforcement of the law will continue. The memes will continue. Thank you for your attention to this matter,” Dorr wrote.

The world is a truly scary place these days, and with the holiday season upon us once more, I think we need to lighten our hearts a little. So...

Three men arrive in heaven at the same time. St. Peter comes out to greet them. "Sorry about this guys," says St. Peter. "God didn't realize just how many people would get into heaven, so we have a new policy. You now have to tell me the story of how you died, and if I think it's sad or interesting enough, I'll let you in."

He walks up to the first man who is a nerdy, bookish sort in a bad business suit and says, "Tell me your story."

"Okay," says the man. "I thought I had a wonderful life. I had a beautiful wife and we had a lovely place on the 34th floor of an apartment building. I came home from work early today, and I saw my beautiful wife sleeping naked in bed with another man's clothes on the floor. So of course I started looking for the bastard who slept with my wife."

"Like I said, I lived in an apartment. There weren't that many places to hide, but I couldn't find him anywhere! Just when I was about to go confront my wife, I see him. The bastard was hiding outside the window, holding onto the windowsill. I go up to him and started stomping on his hands over and over again, but he wouldn't let go. I finally kicked him in the face and he fell. Unfortunately, he landed on a bush and bounced to safety. In my anger, I grabbed my refrigerator and throw it out after him. However, the cord from the refrigerator wrapped around my leg and pulled me to my death."

St. Peter nods and says, "You're story is acceptable. Welcome to heaven." He goes to the second man a brawny working-man type and says, "What's your story?"

"I'm a window washer," says the man. "I've been a window washer for over 20 years. Well today, I'm washing the windows of the 35th floor of this apartment building when my scaffolding breaks. I thought I was going to die, but I manage to catch myself on the windowsill of the story below. All of a sudden this maniac comes out and starts mashing my fingers. I try my best to hold on, but he kicks me in the face and I fall. Once again, I thought I was going to die, but I land on this hedge and bounce away no worse for the wear. I look up and BOOM. Dead. Last thing I saw was a refrigerator."

St. Peter holds back a chuckle and lets him into heaven. He goes to the third man, a ridiculously handsome fellow with sandy-blonde hair, and asks, "What's your story?"

"Alright," says the man. "Picture this. You just got finished banging some dude's wife. He comes home. You hide in the refrigerator."

Investigators in Colorado confirmed Friday that the 2005 shooting death of journalist Hunter S. Thompson was a suicide, following a review requested by local authorities at the behest of his widow.

The probe, announced in September, was opened after Anita Thompson contacted the sheriff for the Aspen area, Michael Buglione, with “new concerns and potential information regarding the investigation” into Thompson's death, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation said.

The bureau did not explain what that information was, but it noted that the review found that his body “was not moved or ‘staged’ after death.”

The Instagram unfollowing between the Beckhams comes amid a tumultuous time for the famous family.

Back in 2022, Brooklyn married Nicola in an elegant wedding in Palm Beach, Fla., where they were surrounded by their family and friends. The happy occasion also marked the start of a rumored family rift between Brooklyn and Nicola and the rest of the Beckham family.

At the time, rumors swirled of tension between Nicola and Victoria, because the actress opted not to wear one of the Spice Girls alum's wedding dress designs, despite originally planning to. A source told PEOPLE earlier this year that the rumors of a clash were real, while a second insider told PEOPLE that the dress situation is "far from the truth."

A source also told PEOPLE that the drama increased when Victoria allegedly hijacked a dance at Brooklyn's wedding, despite her son and Nicola's planned moment for the song, which was performed by Marc Anthony as a gift to the newlyweds.

Back in May, David celebrated his 50th birthday with a star-studded celebration in London. Victoria, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, all attended, but Nicola and Brooklyn were absent, despite receiving an invite to the event.

A source told PEOPLE shortly after that Brooklyn and Nicola opted to skip the event because of Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnball, whom the insider claimed was once linked to Brooklyn. However, Cruz replied to a commenter on an Instagram post at the time saying that "Brooklyn and Kim never dated," which was something another source also claimed to PEOPLE, and Turnball similarly denied the rumors herself.

The Beckhams' tension has played out in the public eye in recent months, with members of the family sharing cryptic posts on social media.

Brooklyn shared a video of himself and Nicola riding a motorcycle, captioned with a loving tribute in which he said he would "always choose" her, in May, and just hours later, Cruz shared a family photo on his own account, writing, "I love you guys more than anything, mum & dad, you gave us life and cared for us no matter what. I cannot tell you how blessed we all are to have you in our lives."

The film follows an actress desperate to reclaim her career. She is drawn into the glamorous world of a wellness mogul only to uncover a monstrous truth.

Too late, assholes.

The FCC released new guidance Wednesday that stipulates that daytime and late night talk shows will be expected to comply with equal time rules.

Bill and Hillary Clinton have officially refused to testify in the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee's investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — defying subpoenas and risking being held in contempt of Congress.

The former president and Secretary of State were scheduled to appear on Capitol Hill for closed-door depositions Tuesday and Wednesday. But, in a letter to House Oversight Chair James Comer, attorneys for the Clintons said their clients would not be complying.

The letter, obtained by POLITICO, claims both Clintons have already provided all the information they have regarding the late Epstein and his co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, who is now serving a 20-year sentence for her part in the sex trafficking scheme.

So if I had read through reply 17 of 30, it would take me directly to reply 17. But lately it has been taking me to earlier replies, like reply 12. So I find myself reading replies that I had read earlier in the day. What has happened, Muriel?

The 11-year-old Pennsylvania boy who allegedly shot his adoptive father on Tuesday, Jan. 13, allegedly accessed the gun in his family's safe. Clayton Dietz, who is now facing murder charges, allegedly got mad at his adoptive father, Douglas Dietz, when Douglas took away his Nintendo Switch and told him to go to bed.

Clayton turned 11 on Tuesday, Jan. 13, and was arrested that day and charged with criminal homicide, according to online court records.

Dietz is being tried as an adult, according to online court records.

A decorated Marine veteran was fatally shot at his home during a Facebook Marketplace sale — and he spent his final moments describing his attackers to police over the phone before heartbreakingly texting his family goodbye. Michael Ryan Burke, 42, was gunned down during a sale-turned-robbery involving a cellphone at his home in Columbia, Missouri on Sunday, according to the

Three 18-year-olds and a juvenile male have been arrested and charged with murder in Burke’s senseless killing. Alexis Baumann, Kobe Aust, Joseph Crane, all 18-year-old locals, and an unidentified male juvenile were all charged with second-degree murder, first-degree robbery and burglary. Burke’s college pal and fraternity brother, Jerry Reifeiss, described the veteran’s final moments in an interview with KRCG13.

Reifeiss said that it was hard to fathom Burke was killed during a Facebook marketplace robbery, but likened his resolve in his final moments to the same courage that pushed him to enlist in the military.

He said that Burke held on long enough to call 911 and describe the quad of attackers. He also managed to text his mother and sister “I’m dying and I love you” before he was rushed to a local hospital, where he died.

It was a career pivot to say the least.

Ryan James Wedding, 43, was once an aspiring snowboarder who competed in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. He came in 24th for Canada in the men's parallel giant slalom.

But federal prosecutors alleged Thursday that Ryan Wedding had chosen a different path following his snowboarding career. He had become a major trafficker of cocaine into Canada and the United States, a ruthless leader of a criminal drug enterprise who would stop at nothing to keep his business — "The Wedding Criminal Enterprise" — running smoothly.

"He chose to become a major drug trafficker and a killer," U.S. Atty. for the Central District of California Martin Estrada said during a news conference.

He remains on the loose.

"Ryan Wedding is still at large," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Krysti Hawkins.

Prosecutors announced a sprawling superseding indictment Thursday charging Wedding with conspiracy to export cocaine, with running a continuing criminal enterprise, and with three murders in connection with the operation as well as an attempted murder. The superseding document amends and replaces the original indictment.

"An Olympic athlete-turned-druglord is now charged with leading a transnational organized crime group that engaged in cocaine trafficking and murder, including of innocent civilians," Estrada said.

Prosecutors alleged that Wedding — who was known by many aliases, including "El Jefe" and "Public Enemy" — ran the drug trafficking organization from 2011 to 2024 along with his second-in-command Andrew Clark. Clark was arrested this month in Mexico.

They moved 60 tons of cocaine per year, Estrada said, calling the enterprise "extremely prolific." It was a billion-dollar organization, federal prosecutors said. Prosecutors said as part of their investigation they seized more than a ton of cocaine, dozens of rounds of ammunition and more than $3 million in cryptocurrency.

They moved the cocaine from Colombia through Mexico and into Southern California. From there they distributed it to Canada and other parts of the United States, working with a Canadian drug transportation network helmed by Hardeep Ratte and Gurpreet Singh. The cocaine was stored in Los Angeles stash houses before it was taken to Canada in trucks, prosecutors alleged.

Together Wedding and Clark ruled their enterprise with an iron fist, Estrada said.

"They were killers. Anyone who got in their way they would target with violence, including murder," he said.

The duo would hire contract killers and take out hits on people who they believed got in the way of their business.

In November 2023, Estrada said, they ordered the killings of an Indian couple visiting Canada who they believed had stolen a cocaine shipment. It was a case of mistaken identity. The couple was shot to death in front of their daughter — who was also shot but survived.

In April 2024, Clark and another co-defendant, Malik Damion, ordered the killing of another man in Ontario who was shot to death in his driveway. One month later, Wedding and Clark allegedly had another man killed over a drug debt as he sat in his car in the driveway of his home.

The killings were all execution-style, Estrada said.

As part of a joint investigation, 12 people were arrested in the U.S., Canada, Colombia and Mexico in connection with the drug trafficking enterprise.

Authorities are offering $50,000 to anyone who has information leading to the arrest of Wedding.

Like him but I hope not

Speaking of players with big butts ...

"There's no easy way to get into this, is there?" Anthony Recker laughed. "Just dive right in."

Former big league catcher and current MLB Network analyst Anthony Recker was known for a few things during his career. His solid defense, his ability to hit some clutch home runs and, well, how can we put this: His larger-than-life behind.

It may be one of the most talked about in recent baseball history -- there are websites, Facebook groups, Instagram pages, X and even Tumblr carousels dedicated to it.

"I had nicknames as a kid, it just comes with the territory," Recker said. "A hereditary gene more than anything else. I don't even wanna know what my nicknames were. When I was a kid, when I was 10 years old, teammates were calling me bubble butt."

Recker, of course, keeps all of his muscles in pretty good shape throughout his body. You can’t just have strong glutes and nothing else. It’s all about making sure everything flows together for baseball success.

“If you are strong in your glutes, you have to connect it all,” Recker told me. “Your core, your back – up through the spine. Into the shoulders. Everything. Down into your hamstrings, which connect to your glutes. All of that helps you from a power perspective and power output.”

Like Sadler, Recker reiterates that the ground is where most hitters get their force. Pushing off that with a big lower half is essential to success at the plate.

Still, as much as Recker would like to point out other areas of his body or maybe talk about his dingers or that time he pitched a 1-2-3 inning as a position player, he seems to understand that his behind is front-and-center. Behind-and-center? Even other former players he never played with know him for it.

"I was working on MLB Network one morning, the first time I met Cliff Floyd," Recker said. "And he's like, 'I know you!' And he starts telling me about all these websites and stuff. I'm like, 'OK, whatever.' You know, it's out there. It's seen. People find it. It is what it is."

And no, as seen with Raleigh, Recker, Griffey Jr., or many of the thousands of players who've used it it reach the highest level of the sport, it can never be big enough.

A new twist.

Please help.

Thank you in advance.

Sad.

Just finished reading her biography. Just a sad, tragic life that rivaled Judy's. From a controlling, stage mother parent (though I do think Agnes loved Karen in her own way) to horrible self-destructive behaviors mixed with perhaps some mental illness.

And just like Judy, a voice that could bring you to your knees and uplift you to the sky in the same song. When she sang, her tone seemed to be intertwined with the passion and struggle of every gay man. A clarion call for us all to stand tall and proud.

I'm stunned there aren't more Karen Carpenter drag queen impersonators. But where the fuck are the Garland ones hiding, while we're at it?

I was always hesitant about cooking fish in my air fryer, but I took a chance tonight. WF had a sale on swordfish. I Googled a recipe, and after ten minutes, it came out perfect in the air fryer. It wasn't dry, but moist and flavorful.

What surprising things have you made with your air fryer?

Just added. Such a grownup show which is why, at the age of 12, I didn’t find it especially interesting.

But now I love it. It’s charming and of a mature vintage you never see on sitcoms anymore. And so very authentically New York. The opening tags of them walking around the city were great.

This tag was filmed when St. James was pregnant and covering it with a bag.

Such a sad story. This mama’s boy Marine tried to sell his old iPhone on Facebook Marketplace, and foolishly had the buyer come to his house. The buyer turned out to be a group of teenagers who shot him and took the phone. While they ran off to sell it at a Walmart kiosk for less than $200, the victim called 911 and then texted goodbyes to his family. He died soon after.

Who's with me?

Last year Canada was the only Western country that stood firm against Trump's tariff threats, and now Carney's the only Western leader that dares to call out the orange elephant in the room while European leaders eagarly gobble down everything the said elephant excretes on their knees.

I didn't think it could happen to me, but it did. And while I feel a bit shell-shocked, I also feel...relief.

I recently started counseling again, specifically to help with a lapse back into my persistent, lifelong depression after having a period of remission for much of this year. I made so much progress this year in so many arenas, and depression was one of them. I've also lost over 60 lbs, been sober for almost 11 months, moved to a new place and thought I had made some huge strides in my life.

However, I found myself sliding back down into depression over the past 3 months. It was a gradual slide back down but about a month ago I realized I was feeling about as dismal, hopeless and depressed as I was at the beginning of this year. With the holidays upon us, having fractured relationships with the very few family members I do have left, absolutely zero focus at work whatsoever and an inability to get anything done either (work-wise), brain fog, forgetfulness, I began to fear I might fall back into drinking and decided it was time to try counseling again.

I've been meeting with a new therapist whom I like quite a bit, and today about 3/4s of the way into the session, she asked me if I'd ever been diagnosed with ADHD in my life. I said no, but that I'd often joked to others about my ADHD tendencies. I also told her that my brother and two other close family members had it, and she told me that from what she'd observed, she believed that this was something I also have. As she is a licensed clinical therapist and not a psychiatrist, she urged me to get official testing done through my insurance to receive an official diagnosis and in the meantime, we'd be working on some (non-pharmacological) coping strategies during our sessions. Once I receive a diagnosis, there is the potential to take some medication to help me so I can actually be effective again at work.

It all makes a lot of sense to me now. As I said, in the past, I joked about my "tendencies" toward ADHD-type behavior, but being a woman, I hadn't seriously believed I actually HAD it. But so many things now fit. I don't know anyone else who usually has 3 things going on at once while sitting on the couch in the evening (watching tv, scrolling through and/or commenting on DL, looking at things on Marketplace, while having a Mahjohhng game going on in the background and switching between all these things. And of course, there are the things I open a new tab in my browser on to find out more about XX, which is a frequent thing I do as well.

I just had to share with DL, because this is the place I come to every day and is my constant companion and weirdly dysfunctional comfort mechanism day in and day out.

Stephanie Lanciani has been going to Disney World with her friends Katie and Deanna for over nine years.

Their other friends, Ashley and Sarah, are also Disney lovers, and the group of five would often share tips and tricks about the park, specifically relating to accessibility, as they are all plus-size.

Their love for going to Disney theme parks and the need for accessible information inspired them to create their social media page, Plus Size Park Hoppers, where they document their visits, test out rides to see if they're size-inclusive and review Disney-affiliated restaurants and shops.

It all began after they learned about the new Avatar ride at Disney's Animal Kingdom, Flight of Passage, which opened in 2017. The ride straps two people side and side and flies them through the air as they soar over Pandora.

However, they heard it wasn't as size-inclusive as other rides in the park. Unsure of whether or not they could comfortably ride, the friends looked for information online from other plus-size creators.

“We were looking on the internet for other people who look like us, trying the ride vehicles," Lanciani, 33, exclusively tells PEOPLE. "There wasn't a lot of content out there for varying body types, and so I remember thinking then, ‘We could do that. We could help show people if they could fit on rides or not.' "

Unfortunately, they found out the ride would not support them airborne and were warned it could collapse if two of them were seated side to side.

Each of their videos highlights a ride, attraction, or restaurant and the different accessibility options for those of varying body types. The information they share includes where the test-seats are located, which restaurants have booths or chairs with arms, and other accessibility information that helps others determine their best options at Disney World.

They also often coordinate outfits, sharing fun "outfit of the day" videos with their 250,000 followers.

While their videos often reach their target audience, sometimes they go viral and reach a different demographic, leading to mean comments and online bullying.

While Lanciani admits some of the comments can be “brutal,” she says the “good outweighs the bad.”

Now, they take trips down to Florida once a month and stay there for about a week or two. When they’re there, they plan meetups with their followers so they can all traverse the park in herds.

“Something that's stopped us is traveling to another country as plus-size people in general, you don't know what the bathrooms are like, you don't know what the restaurants are like, what the hotels are like. Are they going to fit people like us?" Lanciani shares.

"We thought, ‘If we're having these concerns, other people are having these concerns.’ We want to go and travel to other places. So if we can do it, other people can do it.”

They were cast for a very important reason: the pay-or-play contract. The combination of Johansson, Pattinson and Stan equals at least $50 million in fixed compensation costs that must be paid, even if the film were to be canceled. It's a sunk cost.

This is critical because as we all know, WB is for sale. And Netflix is making the first steps toward backing out of the merger.

When the merger collapses (buy $NFLX, short $WBD, thank me later), all film production at Warner Bros instantly goes on ice as the company seeks another buyer (it will be private equity). Only films before cameras or with an enormous sunk cost will be allowed to continue. Everything else will be shelved, and that includes James Gunn's Superman sequel. That was why Gunn was only able to cast a little known actor for Brainiac, because the industry expects film to be shelved.

This article seems to think so.

I was watching “sailor of the king” and wondered if the director had a crush on Hunter the way he filmed him homoerotically throughout the picture. Then I found out the director was none other than the former husband of Hayley mills, Roy boulting.

I must say though that I think Hunter was filmed beautifully in this film in both his uniform and half naked for the second half. He looked like a fantasy with his body glistening with sweat and a slight smattering of chest hair.

I’ve revisited some of his movies lately because they were mentioned in other threads and it’s curious that he wasn’t selected for some of those sexy male roles like brick in “cat on hot run roof”. He really would have been good in some of those Tennessee Williams pictures.

What a delightful, powerful little Norwegian film. Please watch this (if you’re a mature adult).

I finally watched it and I loved the movie. It’s part family drama, partly about the creative process, partly about generational trauma and partly about the way one place can hold so many memories and experiences for us, and mean so much to us (in this case, the family home that’s been in the family for generations now).

Stellan Skarsgard is so good I don’t see how he could lose the Oscar. He gives such a lovely performance from his first scene all the way to the end. Renate Reinsve is absolutely remarkable and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas gives my favorite performance in the film. Elle Fanning is good but she’s the weakest link in the movie.

A wonderful film.

The story goes that these became especially popular in American suburbia especially during the 1970s. When couples would arrive at parties, the husband would put his car keys in a bowl and at the end of the party the wives would pick up a set of keys from it not their own and fuck whoever was the owner. It memorably formed a key plot element in the 1997 film "The Ice Storm" (and the earlier Rick Moody novel it was based on), and has also been shown on "That 70s Show" and "The Simpsons."

But this article from SF Weekly says researchers have never been able to find people who actually attended one. is it a great urban myth, or do you know directly of it ever happening?

A shopkeeper's daughter turned into one of the most powerful women in the world, Margaret Thatcher is a polarizing figure in history.

Rising quickly through the ranks of the Conservative Party, she eventually challenged and eviscerated Sir Edward Heath as party leader in 1975; a cunning move that marked the beginning of a new era in British politics. As Prime Minister, she pursued a bold agenda of economic liberalization, privatization, and reduced government intervention.

Greatly admired abroad, her legacy remains divided at home. Fans credit her with reviving the British economy and restoring national confidence, while critics argue her policies deepened social divides and weakened public services.

So, let's discuss the life and policies of Baroness Margaret Hilda. Thatcher.

A friend from college is a Brit and he was living here in nyc at the time — we have stayed in touch. He went back to the UK after 9/11 and has lived in Kent for 20+ years.

He recently asked me to ship him some melatonin gummies because he has insomnia for the first time in many years (he broke up with his longterm boyfriend and he’s truly shattered, poor thing). He’s used them before but when he went to the chemist there were none there. He looked around more — nothing.

So I bought him three containers and was about to ship them to him along with a book I think he’ll like, but I googled it and apparently the reason it’s not available anymore is it’s become prescription only. It’s not a controlled substance however.

Vanna White and John Donaldson have tied the knot!

The Wheel of Fortune icon, 68, and her longtime love announced their marriage on Instagram on Wednesday, Jan. 21. "Surprise! We got married!" White captioned a photo from their big day. She continued, "John and I have been in love for more than a decade, and a little while back, we wanted to make it official in a private ceremony. We’re excited to share this new, joyful chapter in our lives with all of you! Love, Vanna and John."

White was first introduced to Donaldson in 2012 when a friend brought the real estate developer to one of her barbecues. White told PEOPLE in 2019 that she was instantly smitten.

"I remember looking at him and thinking, 'He's really cute,' " she recalled. "We ended up talking for a long time that night."

"It just works," she added of their breezy relationship at the time. "He lets me be me, I let him be him ... There is no drama in our relationship."

In October 2023, the TV star opened up about why she and Donaldson hadn't said "I do" after so many years together.

“I mean, we've been together 12 years, and I feel like we are married,” she told PEOPLE. “Do we have to get married? No, because we feel comfortable in our relationship. You know what I mean? I know that he's the one. He knows I'm the one.”

Vanity Fair has hired Olivia Nuzzi as its next West Coast editor, the magazine announced on Thursday.

The magazine said in an announcement that Nuzzi would focus on “editing stories across platforms and topic areas, with a focus on events, industries and culture of the Pacific region.” She will also write for the magazine.

Nuzzi’s hiring is one of 12 new roles the magazine unveiled Thursday, part of its newly installed global editorial director Mark Guiducci’s attempt to revamp the glitzy Hollywood and culture-focused publication. Semafor reported last month that Guiducci had spoken to Nuzzi about a role

Taylor Swift is such a mean girl cunt. Her facade is falling.

Taylor Swift called “It Ends with Us” director Justin Baldoni a “bitch” in a 2024 text exchange with Blake Lively, according to court documents obtained by Variety.

“I think this bitch knows something is coming because he’s gotten out his tiny violin,” Swift wrote in a message to Lively while sending a screenshot of a People magazine story about Baldoni being raped while trying to preserve his virginity. The New York Times exposé about Baldoni and Lively’s feud was also set to be published at the time.

“It’s rings different when he doesn’t end the story by saying ‘Did I always listen when they said no? No.’ like he did with me. But that must not’ve tested well in the focus group,” Lively wrote. “He’s being honored at the vital voices for women event on Monday.”

“This is so disgusting, and I hate that he’s clever about this shit,” Swift wrote.

“This inspiring event celebrates men who are using their platforms, influence and leadership to elevate women, combat gender-based violence and promote gender equality worldwide,” Lively explained of the event.

“Well not him, her,” Swift responded.

“He’s not. He just has a team. Yeah. Her. And his publicist Jennifer Abel. And the comms people at his studio,” Lively added.

“He needs to be beaten by his OWN words,” Swift wrote in a message.

In another message, Lively wrote, “Can you imagine feeling as confident as these predators that you’re going to always get away with it. Him accepting an award as an ally for women.

“And Scooter going about he world with his head held high as he co owns and funds a crisis PR company that silences women.”

“It’s like a horror film no one knows is taking place,” Swift wrote in a message.

“Oh but they will. It’s the only thing that can come of this. The good that protects other women from this happening to them,” Lively responded.

In messages a year prior, Lively referred to Baldoni as the “doofus director of my movie” in a message to Swift, adding that he is a “clown” who “thinks he’s a writer now.”

In another message, Lively asked Swift — who was allegedly already on her way to visit while Baldoni was present in Lively’s home — to endorse a revised version of the script she was proposing and didn’t need to read it if she couldn’t. (In Lively’s deposition, she said, “I sent Taylor the script on her way to my apartment because Justin was still there, and I asked her to read them. I told her she didn’t have to, I didn’t want her to feel pressure to do that, but I hope that she would.”)

Swift allegedly replied, “I’ll do anything for you !!”

In a later message, Lively allegedly wrote to the singer that she was “so epically heroic today” and that she “recapped every moment” to Reynolds. “I kept remembering stuff- You making shit up about me and lenses. And referring to yourself as my doll. This clown falling for all of it. But also resisting it. You are the world’s absolute greatest friend ever.”

I find that recently I start watching TV shows or movie, a lot of times within the first 10-15 minutes I turn it off. It’s not that they are necessarily bad, but I find I don’t have the mental energy or interest to watch the rest. I don’t know if it’s my attention span that’s shot but most new programming is not worth it. I don’t have a problem at the movie theater, just the stuff readily available on streaming platforms.

I feel like the constant chaos of the world has me mentally burned out. Anyone else?

There's a new documentary about him.

Guys I just want to ask one question...

Would our country be dastardly and evil enough to kill Greenlanders if they revolt against this inevitable coup...

This possibility right now truly scares me.

I guess Soleil Moon Frye was too busy and they called Glenn.

Luckily Glenn could fill in for the Punky Brewster star on tonight's episode.

She has her dog with her.

In the first 5 minutes she was already twerking with some rapper named Lil Rei. Who is that?

I need to know. I love kerouac.

I just saw a promo for “Hollywood Squares”, airing on CBS.

1. She’s now appearing on the all-but-dead network television

2. She wasn’t even given the coveted center square slot

Pity, pity…

This is hilarious.

Aka as Lana from Three's Company...

It’s a brilliant PR strategy for herself.

The masochistic nature of her romances is surprising given her reputation as a strong black woman. Safely engaged to Steadman Graham since 1992, it looks like she may never find true love:

"Winfrey's high school sweetheart Anthony Otey recalled an innocent courtship that began in Winfrey's senior year of high school, from which he saved hundreds of love notes; Winfrey conducted herself with dignity and was a model student. The two spoke of getting married, but Otey claimed to have always secretly known that Winfrey was destined for a far greater life than he could ever provide. She broke up with him on Valentine's Day of her senior year.

In 1971, several months after breaking up with Otey, Winfrey met William "Bubba" Taylor at Tennessee State University. According to CBS journalist George Mair, Taylor was Winfrey's "first intense, to-die-for love affair". Winfrey helped get Taylor a job at WVOL, and according to Mair, "did everything to keep him, including literally begging him on her knees to stay with her". Taylor, however, was unwilling to leave Nashville with Winfrey when she moved to Baltimore to work at WJZ-TV in June 1976. "We really did care for each other," Winfrey would later recall. "We shared a deep love. A love I will never forget."

When WJZ-TV management criticized Winfrey for crying on air while reporting tragedies and were unhappy with her physical appearance (especially when her hair fell out as a result of a bad perm), Winfrey turned to reporter Lloyd Kramer for comfort. "Lloyd was just the best," Winfrey would later recall. "That man loved me even when I was bald! He was wonderful. He stuck with me through the whole demoralizing experience. That man was the most fun romance I ever had."

According to Mair, when Kramer moved to NBC in New York, Winfrey had a love affair with a married man who had no intention of leaving his wife. Winfrey would later recall: "I'd had a relationship with a man for four years. I wasn't living with him. I'd never lived with anyone—and I thought I was worthless without him. The more he rejected me, the more I wanted him. I felt depleted, powerless. At the end, I was down on the floor on my knees groveling and pleading with him". Winfrey became so depressed that on September 8, 1981, she wrote a suicide note to best friend Gayle King instructing King to water her plants. "That suicide note had been much overplayed" Winfrey told Ms. magazine. "I couldn't kill myself. I would be afraid the minute I did it, something really good would happen and I'd miss it."

According to Winfrey, her emotional turmoil gradually led to a weight problem: "The reason I gained so much weight in the first place and the reason I had such a sorry history of abusive relationships with men was I just needed approval so much."

Winfrey later confessed to smoking crack cocaine with a man she was romantically involved with during the same era. She explained on her show: "I always felt that the drug itself is not the problem but that I was addicted to the man." She added: "I can't think of anything I wouldn't have done for that man."

Winfrey was allegedly involved in a second drug-related love affair. Self-proclaimed former boyfriend Randolph Cook said they lived together for several months in 1985 and did drugs. In 1997, Cook tried to sue Winfrey for $20 million for allegedly blocking a tell-all book about their alleged relationship.

In 1985, before Winfrey's Chicago talk show had gone national, Haitian filmmaker Reginald Chevalier claims he appeared as a guest on a look-alike segment and began a relationship with Winfrey involving romantic evenings at home, candlelit baths, and dinners with Michael Jordan and Danny Glover. Chevalier says Winfrey ended the relationship when she met Stedman Graham.

Winfrey and her partner Stedman Graham have been together since 1986. They were engaged to be married in November 1992, but the ceremony never took place.

But ever so charming as well...

Donald Trump unleashed fresh social media attacks against European allies and threatened crushing tariffs on French wine, underlining the stakes for high-level meetings planned in Davos this week.

In a flurry of comments and posts early Tuesday morning, Trump took a swipe at President Emmanuel Macron for rejecting an invitation to back his latest peace initiative and suggested the US would impose duties on France’s politically sensitive agriculture sector.

“Nobody wants him because he’s going to be out of office very soon,” Trump told reporters Monday local time, after being informed Macron would decline his invitation. “I’ll put a 200% tariff on his wines and champagnes and he’ll join.”

She is so shitfaced in that episode. She can barely speak or stand. . .

I asked Lucy how the experience of working with Crawford had been. She told me she fired her after the first rehearsal. "She was drunk. She showed up at ten o'clock in the morning for the first read-through, and she was bombed. She was drinking straight vodka from this silver flask, and she was drinking it in front of the kids. She was saying all the words, but it was like she was a robot. About lunchtime, Joan passed out cold, and that did it. As soon as she woke up, I fired her."

Herb Kenwith, the show's director and an old friend of Crawford's, begged Lucy to give her another chance. Crawford, after her revival, said the heat had gotten to her. Lucy gave her another chance, and Crawford did finish the show. Lucy admitted it was one of the worst.

Take the poll.

TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT: Trump said he won't impose a promised tariff increases on European countries starting in February if a new deal with Greenland can be "consummated."

"Based upon a very productive meeting that I have had with the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region," Trump posted on his Truth Social platform Wednesday.

"This solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United States of America, and all NATO Nations. Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st."

I cannot wait-

I was rewatching Beef Season 1 on Netflix and it is utterly fantastic- And surprisingly great upon re-watch.

I have never seen an entire cast that I wanted to hug and kiss- they are all so adorable. (I guess I dig asians as well as Maria Bello)

And they were expertly cast- Every one of them was fantastic.

I have a hard time believing Season 2 will be as good despite starring Carey Mulligan and Oscar Isaac-

Do we love him?

A New York Times deep dive alleges that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth donned makeup for a February meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart during which he seemed much more concerned with his appearance than policy.

The Times published a comprehensive story about the Trump administration’s handling of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on Tuesday in which it suggested that Hegseth began his tenure at the Pentagon “as something of a blank slate on the war.”

“He didn’t have any of his own thoughts on Russia and Ukraine,” an ex-Pentagon official told the Gray Lady. “But he had civilian advisers who did.”

It doesn't count if you already saw it on the DM.

New thread for the New Year.

Previous thread:

I have a friend who is constantly barefoot with dirty black grocery store feet who clutches his pearls every time he sees a guy take a selfie on the toilet or either with a toilet in the background of said selfie.

Yet he doesn’t wear shoes even in public and will show off his grotesque dirty calloused feet to everyone — and wants them to find it attractive.

Gay men are weird sometimes.

As horrific details of the Iranian government’s suppression of protesters emerge — with internal estimates counting more than 10,000 dead — the country’s young, wealthy elite are inciting further rage by continuing to flaunt their lavish lives online as they have for years, as if the nation weren’t on the brink of collapse outside of their privileged bubble.

Amid an enforced internet blackout that allows an oppressive regime to commit “genocide under the cover of digital darkness,” according to one outraged expert, reporters from the Telegraph are said to have observed “rich Iranians” partying at a nightclub in a popular holiday hot spot on the border with Turkey.

Fight me.

Trump emulating Nazis as per usual.

Restaurants that close on Monday. Being open on Saturday and Sunday is no excuse!!

Nickleback has kind of overtaken Jefferson Starship as our cultural placeholder for “bad music’ but i dont mind either group that much. Defintiely can think of a lot worse.

I also like circus peanut candy and always watxh every season of American Horror story

I think its healthy to be in the minority in some things. Do you?

… every day this man wakes up and says “how can I dress even more like a Victorian ghost who lost his luggage on the way to the workhouse?” And somehow—SOMEHOW—he succeeds.

At this point I’m genuinely terrified to see what he’s going to wear for the Christmas concerts. Will it be: • The Depression-Era coat that looks like it came from a donation bin behind a closed Sears? • The scarf that screams “I sleep on park benches by choice”? • Or maybe the full “seasonal mall Santa on break” ensemble?

The year is clearly not ending well for our boy, fashion-wise. If this is the energy he’s bringing to December… imagine the Holiday Tour Wardrobe. I’m scared. I’m excited. I’m laughing. I’m concerned. I’m all of the above.

Anyway, place your bets: Which level of indigent chic will he bless us with on stage?

A catch-all thread to commemorate the100th birthdays of all those unfortunate souls who never became a centenarian. And to reserve the "Famous Centenarians, Living or Dead" thread to all those who actually did (or at least are on the verge of doing so).

Expected to end in May

It's getting crowded up there.

And all so these two trillionaire pricks can outdo each other in the race for MORE data centers, MORE wifi customers, and MORE space junk.

24 hours starts now.

A majority of Supreme Court justices on Tuesday indicated that a Hawaii gun law that limits people carrying firearms onto private property infringes on the constitutionally protected right to bear arms.

The measure has been dubbed the “vampire rule” because, as with the fictional creatures in folk tales and the novel “Dracula,” it requires people with concealed carry permits to seek permission before entering private property open to the public.

Members of the court's 6-3 conservative majority, who regularly back gun rights, suggested during oral argument that the requirement violates the Constitution’s Second Amendment right to bear arms.

The Dead Speak! And, in Luna’s case, get pregnant. Fresh from her trip to the afterworld, Luna has managed to get pregnant, discovered by the LAPD, and thrown back behind bars, where her cellmate beats her up upon request. Meanwhile, Il Guardino finally has customers and Daphne’s most suspicious odor wafts through the offices of Forrester Creations, where dark times reside. All Forrester employees—regardless of rank or past history—have seemingly been told the excruciating tale of how Electra was deflowered by the Boy with Big Teeth and how tender and beautiful that very special night was. (It’s even been added to the employee handbook.) But Darkness shadowed her and it turned out that The Boy with Big Teeth had sex with Luna the night before, thinking Luna was Electra! Swearing revenge on this violation of his son, Dollar Bill and his Too Tight Pants and Blooming Muffin Top went on a murderous rage, while Katie of the Square Face vowed to take Luna’s baby from her. Meanwhile, Sheila is thankful toward Doctor Taylor Hayes for reuniting Deacon with his murderous, psychotic love. Little does Sheila know, though, that Taylor finds hugging and dancing with her patients to be therapeutic. Having caused Sheila’s husband, Deacon, to get a pop-up his pants, Taylor may be in danger from Sheila, aka Eight Toes. Meanwhile, a new species has landed in Los Angeles: The homo-not-sexual. The first, Deke, is Deacon’s son and an apsiring fashion designer. The second is Remy, last seen as a heterosexual obsessed with Electra. Having decided his obsession with pasting fake nudes of her over the internet was just a way to cover up his gayness, Remy has found himself in love with Deke, a man he likely has never seen naked. Speaking of naked: Brooke is in her sixties and modeling panties. Also, Steffi is a bitch, Finn is so wooden he gets mistaken for Pinocchio when he still had strings, and Hobo Ridge continues to pack on the poundage making a speedo scene ala Ron Moss a merciful no-no. Hope and Liam plan to get married, Zende is still around looking for a storyline, Thomas is in Paris, and Eric hasn’t died yet.

YET.

But he isn't getting any younger. . .

Here’s hoping for a comeback

Since approx 6:00 a.m. Calif time today.

People taking weight loss jabs such as Ozempic have been complaining of another unfortunate side effect.

Those taking the GLP-1 medication have made all sorts of claims about how using it has impacted their bodies - with many reporting changes in their boobs, bums and private parts and even hands. Now, users have been reporting that they have been experiencing another so-called side effect, which has been dubbed 'Ozempic neck'.

Unlike across the pond, in the UK, Ozempic is only prescribed to patients who have Type 2 diabetes as its use is not approved for weight loss purposes by the NHS. Brits can instead obtain the likes of Wegovy or Mounjaro on prescription.

These drugs mimic naturally occurring hormones in our bodies which make us feel full - meaning you aren't as hungry and you consume less food, thus losing weight.

Which is all well and good, but unfortunately, you can't chose which parts of your body reduce in size when you're shedding the pounds at such a speedy rate.

You might lose weight in some unlikely places, such as your neck, and industry experts say that people using weight loss drugs are becoming 'increasingly concerned' about this so-called side effect has altered their appearance.

The term 'Ozempic neck' has been coined to describe the appearance of excessive, aging or sagging skin on your neck, according to Healthline.

It explains: "This may happen because having less fat on the neck can cause skin to become looser, contributing to an older-looking appearance."

According to Dr Emma Goulding, this happens because the neck has 'much thinner skin, less oil production and less underlying support than the face'.

Two white vocalists who could pass for black singers if you didn’t see them. Who else would you add to the list? Lisa Stansfield?

This woman did the full casket-leap dance at her husband's funeral when he died of the COVID five years ago. She "very reluctantly" stepped into political life to run for his congressional seat. Since then, she's apparently found her calling in white-hot partisan politics, becoming one of Trump's biggest and skinniest defenders in Congress. She used to be a scholar of public health, and now she gives cover to vaccine skeptics and abortion nuts. She used to be a professor, and now she's in the book-burning crowd.

And now, the woman who said she had to be dragged into her husband's career, is seeking a promotion to what's basically a lifetime seat. Funny how power does that to people.

Oh, also, she's engaged to a fresh rich dude that her kids hate. Ka-ching!

Turns out it was a guy who died years ago

Sean Leslie Flynn was born on May 31, 1941 in Los Angeles, California. He was the son of Hollywood legend Errol Flynn and his first wife, French-American actress Lili Damita.

After graduating from a boarding school in New Jersey in 1960, he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and pursue acting. His only prior acting experience was when he was 15, when he appeared on his fathers tv show. In June of 1960, while visiting his mother in Fort Lauderdale, his good friend George Hamilton suggested Flynn shoot a scene for his new movie which was shooting in Fort Lauderdale at the time. He shot a few scenes that ended up on the cutting room floor.

In May 1961 he accepted a contract with Sage Western Pictures to star in the sequel to his father’s movie, Captain Blood. The film came out in 1964, titled “The Son of Captain Blood”. In September 1961 he began recording an album after signing a record deal with a low-status company. Two songs were released.

In 1962 George Hamilton announced plans to make a film titled “The Brothers”, starring himself, Sean Flynn and Terry Thomas, but it never came to be and was canceled. That same year Flynn became engaged to the daughter of John Payne and Anne Shirley, Julie Payne. They never went on to marry.

In 1963 and 1964 Flynn made a few European films but in 1964 he grew bored of acting and wanted to do something different. In 1964 he left to Africa to be a guide for safaris and big-game hunting. He also spent time as a game warden in Kenya. In 1965 he realized he spent much of his money so he went to Italy and made two Spaghetti Westerns for the money. They were filmed between Italy and Spain. In 1966, he went to Singapore to film his final film ever, a French-Italian action flick.

That same year (1966) Flynn began dabbling in Photojournalism. Flynn arrived in South Vietnam in January 1966 as a freelance photojournalist, first for the French magazine Paris Match, then for Time Life, and finally for United Press International (UPI). His photos went on to be published all over the world, and he became a big name in the high-risk photojournalism world (in 1966 he would even get wounded while trying to get photos). Throughout most of 1966 he stayed on battlefields to take photos, even being credited with saving an Australian platoon from decimation by a mine by identifying the mine while photographing the troops near Vũng Tàu.

In 1967, Flynn went to Jordan to cover the Arab–Israeli war of 1967. Flynn returned to Vietnam in 1968, after the Tet Offensive. He also worked as a cameraman for CBS News. Flynn went to Cambodia in early 1970 when news broke of North Vietnamese advances into that country.

On April 6, 1970, Flynn and a group of journalists left Phnom Penh to attend a government-sponsored press conference in Saigon. Flynn and Dana Stone decided to travel on motorcycles instead of limos, which is what the other journalists were using. There was a checkpoint in which 4 journalists had been captured. Flynn and Stone decided to go look into this and were never seen again. In 1984, 14 years after his disappearance, he was legally declared dead.

The girl's dad accused the actor of sexually abusing her when she was auditioning for a children's theater in California, reports say.

Actor Timothy Busfield has been accused of another child sex abuse allegation just 24 hours after he turned himself in to authorities in New Mexico to face two counts of criminal sexual contact of a minor and one count of child abuse.

On Wednesday in a pretrial motion, authorities say a man told law enforcement that the 68-year-old Busfield had sexually abused the man’s daughter “several years ago” in Sacramento, California, according to People.

Anastacia...one of the most underrated women in pop music. Thanks to her distinctive tone she has been described as "the little lady with the big voice."

Over the course of her life, Anastacia has suffered several health problems, including being diagnosed with Crohn's disease, suffering breast cancer twice, and the heart condition supraventricular tachycardia. In recognition of her decade-long charitable efforts in breast cancer awareness, she was presented with the Humanitarian Award at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in 2013.

All this distraction with ICE and Greenland and daily crazy bullshit analysis of Trump’s insanity - all while most Americans are circling the drain financially. At what point do they start caring?

They call it "daylight robbery"

We call it highway robbery which makes NO SENSE!!!

From now on, its daylight robbery. THAT makes sense. The irony/play on meaning of robbery--

Lindsey Halligan, a Trump administration lawyer who was named head of a key U.S. attorney’s office in Virginia last year with instructions to seek criminal charges against President Donald Trump’s perceived political adversaries, left her post at the Justice Department on Tuesday.

Do you think she regrets turning down any of them? Especially Iron Man. She did end up in the Marvel world anyway.

Part 2 has been paywalled. Continue talking about the murder of Katie Janness and her pitbull, Bowie here.

There he was, plastered across a sequence of TMZ photos with his jeans falling down as he carried his dog to a hotel after being evicted from his home, which he was reportedly renting for $7,000 a month. His troubles sparked a GoFundMe campaign that, in just over a day, topped out at more than $100,000 with donors including director Brett Ratner and wrestler Chris Jericho.

This fundraiser, started by his manager, appeared to have helped Rourke get through this housing crisis. Everybody loves a happy ending, and so do I, which is why I texted Rourke on Monday night.

He responded immediately, with a not-small wrinkle to the story.

“I swear on my brother I got nuthing to do with it,” Rourke wrote back. “It’s embarrassing.”

He has that borderline "midget voice" that small people have, not quite but close enough. He gets really shrill and high-pitched when he gets excited.

He also says "foe-werd" instead of "forward" a very common native Queens/Nassau County pronunciation (see all three Meiselas brothers). It drives me as batty. Can he possibly be straight? Gurl!

He has good guests, I'll give him that.

Please just vote once, and vote honestly.

Is there a comprehensive list of all of the hell this circus has brought? Each week there seemed to be something new. So many things, we tend to forget them all. From things like Signal Gate to the Shutdown to Liberation Day, can we compile a comprehensive list of this past year to visualize all of the crazy things that have happened? All the crazy things that at least dominated the news cycle for four days? What affected you the most?

For me, Liberation Day hit hard since my business relies on imports/exports from Europe. That's the day my life changed and I have been waiting to see what my new normal will ultimately be.

Euphoria‘s young superstars Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney and Jacob Elordi are hitting the road to promote the show’s return to HBO in the spring — but sources claim the ambitious actors can’t stand one another and are dreading the prospect of having to play nice in public.

“It’s known inside the world of the show that season 3 of Euphoria kept its leads as silo-ed unto themselves as humanly possible — meaning Zendaya, and Jacob and Sydney’s storylines don’t cross over substantially. They each have their own stories tracking through the episodes, and even their own set of guest stars,” an insider explains.

Your thoughts? I look at a lot of YouTube reaction videos, and this hit is a universal favorite, I really love it, too.

Am I the only one who would still suck his uncut ginger cock? I always thought he was hot.

The worst thing to happen to us since AIDS.

I remember hearing about this story when I was young and it still haunts me. I read about it on datalounge during its golden age. I actually surprised we do r hear about more of these type of situations. And when it comes to fatties she wasn’t even that big.
