It’s been a hot minute since we’ve heard from The Kid Laroi. But the Australian pop sensation is back with new music, as he gears up for an impending new era. Tonight (October 20), Laroi has teamed up with global superstars Central Cee and Jung Kook for a new collaboration, “Too Much.”

On their promising new collab, the three international acts reflect on a past relationship, pondering on the idea of rekindling with their once-loves.

“If we had the chance / and the time to spend, would you do it again? / Would you do it again? Was it too much?,” sing Jung and Laroi on the song’s chorus, with Laroi’s vocals sounding more polished than ever.

The song’s accompanying video features the three on interactive covers of the fictional Too Much Magazine. On their respective covers, the three artists dance the pain away, as ladies find the magazines on newsstands. Laroi sports a shorter, bleached-blond do, signaling the beginning of a new season in his life. The three hitmakers prove to be as inescapable in the video as they are on the radio, especially as the magazine arrives to a young woman’s home.

On the heels of his new album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Mañana, Bad Bunny is gearing up to host Saturday Night Live this weekend. Over the course of the past week, SNL has teased Bunny’s appearance with a picture of the Puerto Rican superstar at the table read. Tonight (October 19), SNL has shared the promo for Bunny’s upcoming appearance.

In the promo, Bunny and SNL cast member Heidi Gardner tease the episode. Gardner tells Bunny, “I’ve always wanted to go to ‘Porto Rico.’”

Bunny then corrects her, with the right pronunciation of Puerto Rico.

Gardner continues to mispronounce Puerto Rico, and in response, Bunny simply tells Gardner, “You know what? Don’t go, please.”

In another promo, Gardner tells Bunny how much she loves the message of his music. But she can’t quite explain why she does. Not because Bunny’s music is primarily in Spanish, but because the lyrics are too hot for TV. The final promo features Bunny pushing away a mosquito from a terrified Gardner.

You can see all three promotional clips above.

Bad Bunny’s episode of Saturday Night Live will air this Saturday (October 21) at 11:30 p.m. EST on NBC, and will also stream on Peacock.

Sometimes you just need a little snuggle from your four-legged friend to make everything right in the world again.

Everyone knows that cats are a bit fickle in this area, their comfort is dependent on how annoyed they are with your existence that day. But dogs? Everyone can attest that no matter what kid of day you’ve had, your dog will be there with their tail wagging while covering you in dog food flavored kisses.

They seem to be much more invested in your happiness than cats. So, when you’re feeling down, your doggo is likely to sense it and snuggle up right in your lap hoping to bring you comfort. But apparently some dogs were absent that day in how to be a dog school and they missed the lesson.

This adorably hilarious video of a very serious dog trying to console her human who seems to have nothing but complaints about her efforts is a must watch. The poor dog sits stiff with a straight face and a paw placed on her owner’s shoulder as she sits on the floor critiquing the dog’s style of comfort. Maybe in a past life Queen Charlotte from “Bridgerton” was his mother only offering sorrows sorrows and prayers for consoling? Anything’s possible.

Look, she’s trying, terribly, but she’s trying and that’s much more than cat owners can say when their cats are in a mood. Check out the video below shared by Furry Tails and tell that sweet girl that she’s doing a good job. She gets an A for effort.

Kids can seem pretty unappreciative at times. Parents often sacrifice a lot to give their child the best, just to have it thrown in their face, or in the bin. This is something that Haley Hassell recently discovered when she went to three different stores to get her daughter the latest trendy pencil case.

When Hassell gave her daughter the pencil case, she threw it in the bin complaining that everyone already had it. That’s when Hassell decided to teach her daughter the perfect lesson.

In a Facebook post, Hassell explained:

“[Daughter] learned a tough love lesson today… I went to 3 different stores to get that LOL pencil box you see in the trash there. When I surprised her with it this afternoon (just knowing she would be ecstatic) she stared at it and threw it in the trash and slammed the bedroom door. She yelled ‘that’s stupid, everyone in my class has that..I don’t want it anymore!'”

“OK So by this time there was probably smoke coming out of my ears and I’m trying real hard not to completely lose it on this kid that I have worked so hard to completely take care of financially on my own & make sure she always gets what she needs and then some. BUT I thought I had always taught her to be grateful & know how lucky she was but apparently sis needed a small wake up call!”

“SO before completely going Madea mad on my child I check myself and say, ‘okay that’s fine, let me go get the one you’re going to use.’ Came back with her new pencil box, which is the Ziploc bag. She lost her mind! Suddenly the LOL Box she just trashed was good enough and the Ziploc bag was horrible…but it’s too late for all that.”

Yes, Hassell gave her daughter a Ziplock bag as a pencil case since she didn’t appreciate the LOL one.

“I told her to get the LOL out of the trash and we would be finding a child to give it to tomorrow..one whose mommy and daddies don’t have money for any school supplies or someone who may not even have a mommy or daddy.”

“I explained to her she’s not entitled to anything special and she is taking for granted how lucky she is. So for now she will be using a Ziploc bag & will personally be delivering the nice box to a child that could benefit from it. Maybe I overreact sometimes but I would’ve done anything to have all the things she does as a child. I truly believe changing your perception & just being grateful can turn around any situation in life.”

Commenters seemed to love the punishment, with one user writing: “I’m down for this. Yes it’d be easier to give in, but sometimes you gotta teach them the principle of the matter.”

While another added: “I think you responded appropriately. Maybe she can earn the one she decides she wants at some point.”

Others were less receptive of the idea, with a commenter writing: “I guess I pretty much interact with my child on a regular basis, you know, take them with me when buying stuff for THEM so I know what they want. I talk to my child and care about their feelings. I don’t fear monger them. But hey, good job being a monster mom!”

Personally, I fully support mom on this one and think it’s important to teach kids to appreciate what they have. If you don’t, they’ll most likely turn into terrible adults.

Sometimes what people may consider to be a compliment is actually horribly offensive.

This is one of those times.

An incredible woman has the perfect response for someone who says, “You speak so well … for a black girl.”

But that’s not all. Ernestine Johnson is just getting warmed up. She has plenty more to say about what speaking, looking, and acting like an average black girl really means.

And nope, this isn’t another lesson in political correctness; it’s more about common sense.

She clearly explains it all 42 seconds in the video below:

Oh, and my favorite quote that I’m taking and framing?

This one.

“See, the average black girl that I know, the average black girl that I know were Egyptian queens like Hatshepsut and Nitocris who were ruling dynasties and whole armies of men, excuse me while I set fire to this poem on my pen because I am tired. Tired of the stereotypes black girls have fallen into because of American mentality. Oh, but not half as tired as Ella Baker, Diane Nash, Septima Poinsette-Clark. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired, Miss Fannie Lou Hamer, Daisy Bates, Anna Arnold Hedgeman, and Dorothy Height are far more tired than I am.” — Ernestine Johnson
