Tucker Carlson's Disgusting Rant Against Ilhan Omar Is About One Thing
 
There are a couple things to keep in mind while viewing the latest edition of Tucker Carlson's White Nationalist Power Hour. The first is that the premier neo-Nazi website, the Daily Stormer, absolutely loves Carlson. He's their favorite pundit, according to a study by BuzzFeed, which found posts from the site's founder, Andrew Anglin, calling Tucker's Fox News offering basically "'Daily Stormer: The Show'". He also called Carlson "literally our greatest ally." That's thanks mostly to the escalating anti-immigrant propaganda Carlson's been serving up, including his diatribe about how immigration is making U.S. cities "dirtier." Anglin was clear why: Other than the language used, he is covering all of our talking points. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Aziz Ansari's New Netflix Special Trades Apologies for Exhausted Anti-PC Messages
 
Two years in, the stories of the Me Too era begin to blend together. The powerful men, the horrifying tales of rape and assault, the ever ballooning survivor counts. But the misconduct comic Aziz Ansari was accused of—relentlessly pursing and attempting to initiate sex with a woman even after she told him she didn't want to have intercourse with him—was memorable not for being particularly horrifying, but for being horrifyingly mundane. And now, after a more than year-long absence from film and television, the comic has made his return to the national stage with a new Spike-Jonze directed Netflix special, Right Now, which debuted Tuesday.

Tom Hanks Tied His Shirt in the Front, So Now It's Cool to Tie Your Shirt in the Front
 
Until about three hours ago, I never considered Tom Hanks a style icon. But here we are, on the 63rd anniversary of his birth, and with the click of a few buttons on Rita Wilson's phone, everyone's favorite Hollywood actor/best friend Tom Hanks broke new ground in celebrity style.

The Backpack That Will Have People Asking About Your Backpack
 
Backpacks are bags of the people. We start using them in elementary school to lug around books and notebooks and dope pencil cases (soft shells only, thanks). And as school progresses, the backpacks get cooler and more intentional. Our Jansport turns into a Fjallraven, which turns into a Herschel. And those backpacks are all great for simple needs! For the bag of the people, there are no wrong answers, only answers better suited to certain situations. And when it comes to expert organization, it's worth looking for something that does the job right for you. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge Won't Live Up to Your Fan Boy Dreams. But the Cantina Is Cool.
 
Everyone who's ever seen A New Hope has fantasized about getting intergalactically wasted on blue space drink and blasting some snout-nosed cretin straight to hell, and has lived with the depressing knowledge they'll never realize that dream. Until now, that is. In 2012, Star Wars was subsumed by Disney's gaping maw to the tune of $4.05 billion. The acquisition meant the resurrection of the dormant franchise (and the first good Star Wars films in decades), and now, an immersive Star Wars theme park that opened in Disneyland in May, complete with Oga's, its own functioning cantina.

Rip Torn, What I've Learned
 
Rip Torn, who died Tuesday at the age of 88, will be remembered for his powerhouse roles in comedies like The Larry Sanders Show and Dodgeball. His hulking presence on screen was utilized by comedians for decades, providing a bellowing, albeit over-confident foil to neurotic comedy archetypes like the titular Sanders character in Garry Shandling's beloved HBO show. But before Torn became a comedy super-weapon, he found his place in the '70s American film movement as a strapping leading man in movies like The Man Who Fell to Earth, Payday, and the experimental Norman Mailer project, Maidstone. In 2001, Torn talked to us about the greatest lessons he took from his decades-long career. Read More
