President Trump Just Laid Out His Vision of the First Amendment. Looking Good!
 
Another all-American freak show, and another day when the country seemed to just throw up its hands in the face of further unimpeachable evidence that the president is certifiable. Before the nationally embarrassing spectacle of a Hungarian(-American) guy screaming at reporters in the White House Rose Garden on Thursday, that guy was part of a group of the president's digital butlers invited to attend a Social Media Summit at the presidential manse, which ended up mostly consisting of the world's most powerful man ranting and raving about how he's been treated very badly by the free press and the Tweet Machine and whatever else came to mind. Plenty came to mind. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Paul Ryan Did at Least as Much Damage to the Country as This President* Has
 
I don't want anyone ever to say that I never supported El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago in his heroic effort to Make America Great Again. So I am here to say, "You go, Mr. President*." At issue, of course, are remarks that Paul Ryan, then Speaker of the House, made about the president* as recorded in Tim Alberta's already essential upcoming book, American Carnage. Like any sentient primate, Ryan was underwhelmed by the president*'s fitness for office. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Stranger Things Fans Unraveled the Clues in David Harbour's Instagram to Find a Tip About Hopper's Fate
 
In the week since Season Three of Stranger Things dropped on Netflix, fans have not only binged all eight episodes, but tirelessly dug into the big cliffhanger's that the finale left us with. Is Hopper really dead? What happened to Eleven's powers? Who is the American? Through it all, something strange has been happening on David Harbour's Instagram. He's spent the last week changing his Instagram profile picture to a series of numbers, which fans have realized coincide with Murray Bauman's phone number from the show: 618-625-8313. Now, as fans on Reddit found, anyone who called that number while it was activated over the weekend, you got a message from Murray. So what does this mean? Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
How Red Dead Redemption 2 Found Its Sound—and That One Perfect D'Angelo Song
 
Red Dead Redemption 2 will be remembered for its astounding scale and boundlessly immersive open-world. But at the heart of Rockstar's award-winning western from 2018 is actually a very small story. Arthur Morgan, the video game's main character, is a beleaguered cowboy stuck in the clutches of a megalomaniacal kingpin. Arthur's not a good man himself. But Dutch van der Linde, and the gang of barbaric criminals to which Arthur is shackled, are far worse. The downtrodden outlaw knows he is beyond repentance, and many of the game's narrative devices seek to convey this chilling sense of doom. But the mortal desolation of Arthur Morgan is captured most elegantly by Red Dead Redemption 2's fantastic in-game soundtrack. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This Week's Biggest Sneaker Releases, and Where to Get Them
 
We're all coming off strong from a sleepy vacation week, and so is the sneaker world. This week, the sneakers are varied and innovative. Reebok made a bio-based shoe (out of corn and cotton!), which marks another sneaker getting into the sustainability space. Adidas is dropping a bright blue Torsion, an ode to New York City's Max Fish, and a fresh color of Yeezy 350s. Nike rolled out more of its Stranger Things collection (including a Cortez and a Blazer Mid), and D/MS/X, which plays with the standard sneaker silhouette to make something a little more innovative. Here's a full look at the coolest sneaker drops this week. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
I'd Give Anything to Have Jason Momoa's 'Dad Bod'
 
The Internet, rife with vitriol and a lack of common decency, has found a new target this week—Jason Momoa's unflexed abs. After US Weekly posted a photo of the Aquaman lead in Venice, commenters started calling his physique a "dad bod" asking what happened to his normally ripped body. I'm mad. I'm mad at the people asking why Momoa isn't constantly flexing his ab muscles. I'm mad at his defenders saying that he's "on vacation" and should be left alone... for having a perfect body. And I'm mad that the term I use to describe my own body is now being co-opted to describe the stacked mounds of muscle that make up Momoa's perfectly sculpted human flesh. Read More
