Travis Scott And Kylie Jenner Are Still Working On Naming Their 7-Month-Old Son

Back in February, Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner revealed that their then-recently born son was named Wolf Webster, while a birth certificate later revealed that his full name was Wolf Jacques Webster, the middle name being Scott’s real first name. However, in March, Jenner revealed, “FYI our sons name isn’t Wolf anymore. We just really didn’t feel like it was him. Just wanted to share because I keep seeing Wolf everywhere.”

There hadn’t been any updates on that front until last night, when Jenner talked about it on The Late Late Show.

On yesterday’s (September 8) episode, James Corden chatted with Kylie and mother Kris Jenner, and he asked where things stand when it comes to the seven-month-old boy some call Wolf. Kylie noted, “We haven’t officially, legally changed the name. His name is still Wolf. His password’s Wolf. But that isn’t going to be his name. We’re just waiting.”

Corden tried to wrap his head around that, saying, “So you call him Wolf.” Kylie said that’s not the case, so Corden asked what they call him. Kylie responded, “You know,” adding, “We’re just not ready to share yet.”

The host then clarified that they have a new name but just don’t want to say it yet. Kylie said, “Well, you know, Travis does… he likes to sometimes… like one day, he’ll be like, ‘Ooh, this name is kind of cool,’ and change it again. So we’re just not officially probably going to change it until…” Kris cut in, joking, “…he’s 21.”

Corden then said that while he understands not wanting to share the name publicly, he noted Scott and Kylie should “probably zone in on one” name. Kylie affirmed that they have done that. Corden then got the only real clue about the kid’s name: He asked if it was still an animal name and Kylie said it’s not, so that at least rules out Buck, Drake, and Robin.

Bills WR Isaiah McKenzie Did A Gender Reveal For His Sister After His TD Against The Rams

The Buffalo Bills absolutely routed the defending Super Bowl champs on Thursday night, opening the season with a 31-10 win that felt more lopsided than the final score indicates.

The Bills defense was stifling, regularly pressuring Matthew Stafford and forcing him into mistakes or sacks, while Josh Allen and the offense got rolling in the second half after three turnovers in the first half and put the pedal down on the star-studded Rams defense. While Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis are the unquestioned stars of the Bills receiving corps, Isaiah McKenzie provides that group with some real juice out of the slot, as a versatile option for Allen both in the short passing game and stretching the defense down the middle of the field.

In the early third quarter, McKenzie caught a touchdown on an inside short post to give the Bills a 17-10 lead, one they would never relinquish.

In his celebration, he runs up to the end zone camera man and shouts “IT’S A BOY” twice, which is an odd celebration out of context. However, as we learned on Friday, the reason for that celebration was that McKenzie was delivering one of the all-time coolest gender reveals to his sister and her husband, who are expecting what we now know is a son.

It’ll be hard to top this one for anyone else, as having your NFL player brother break the news to you celebrating a touchdown in the primetime season opener is as good as it gets. It’s a very cool moment and it was nice that the Bills were able to get McKenzie into the end zone in Week 1 so they didn’t have to wait to find out they’re having a boy.

The Absolute Best Way To Spend $5 At Each Of The Big Fast Food Chains

Open your banking app right and total up the money you spend on food each month. If you’re not cooking most of your meals at home, it’s probably a big chunk. Even if you’re often eating fast food — with an average meal running you about $9 (probably closer to $10 and, if you’re eating at fast-casual restaurants, more like $15 or $20) — it adds up. $9 meals seven days a week will run you $63 per week, or $252 per month.

Luckily, a few fast food spots still have great deals for under $5. And today we’re shouting them out. Unlike our $3 deal roundup, which consisted of mostly snacks, this list has a few straight-up meals that’ll leave you full, satiated, and just a little bit richer.

Here is the best way to spend $5 at all the big fast food chains.

Arby’s — Classic Roast Beef

Best Food Under 5
Arbys

Price: $4.69

Thankfully we still live in a world where you can get Arby’s flagship product for under $5. Arby’s Roast Beef sandwich is the chain’s best, so this doesn’t even really feel like a compromise. While the Beef and Cheddar is a bit more flavorful and a lot more exciting (cheese always is), the Classic Roast Beef allows you to focus on that sweet smokey and savory beef flavor that made Arby’s famous.

The meat here is tender with a zesty flavor that settles into a subtle sweetness. A true joy to eat.

The Bottom Line:

Arby’s second-best menu option (the more expensive beef and cheddar takes the top spot) and just under $5!

Find your nearest Arby’s here.

Burger King —Rodeo Burger

Best Fast Food Under 5
Burger King

Price: $1.99

Straight up, Burger King has no business being as expensive as it is. Nothing at Burger King is truly worth $5, most of their food is objectively terrible, and yet most of the burgers and all of the chicken sandwiches on the menu will cost you more than $6. So we’re begrudgingly giving the Rodeo Burger a spot on this Best Under $5 list for the simple fact that it’s the most interesting $1.99 you can spend at BK.

The Rodeo Burger consists of a dry and flavorless overcooked charbroiled meat patty (it tastes like smoke, that’s all) with some tangy and sweet BBQ sauce, as well as the only good thing in the burger, a couple of crispy crunchy onion rings. The smokey sweet BBQ and fried onion flavor is the only thing this burger has going for it, the meat is merely there to make you not feel weird about eating a BBQ fried onion sandwich.

The Bottom Line:

Skip Burger King entirely if you only want to spend $5 but if you have no other options, the Rodeo Burger and a side of fries is the best play.

Carl’s Jr. — California Classic Double Cheeseburger

Best Fast Food Under 5
Carls Jr.

Price: $3.99

Carl’s Jr is f*cking expensive. If you want to spend a worthwhile $5 here, this is really your only option (unless you just want fries). The California Classic Double Cheeseburger features two charbroiled meat patties, American cheese, grilled onions, sauce, lettuce, and tomato on a plain white bun. The bread is just okay– it’s dry, a little sweet, but mostly flavorless. But the meat delivers, it’s that same Carl’s Jr charbroiled taste in a slightly smaller package with savory grilled onions and slightly tangy sauce providing most of the flavor.

It’s not going to blow you away but it gets the job done.

The Bottom Line:

Carl’s Jr’s famous charbroiled burger in a slightly smaller package.

Chick-fil-a — Chicken Sandwich

Best Under 5
Chick-fil-A

Price: $4.99

Coming in with just one cent to spare is Chick-fil-A’s flagship Chicken Sandwich. This is about as simple as a chicken sandwich can ever get — it consists of a single breast filet between two pieces of bread, topped with pickles. It sounds boringly simple, but without any distracting ingredients you’re able to focus on the flavor of Chick-fil-A’s very delicious chicken.

Chick-fil-A marinates its chicken in pickle brine, and you can taste that earthy tang in each tender bite which is further accentuated by the few thin pickles slices that top the sandwich. The filet is fried in peanut oil, giving its thinly battered exterior a lot of crunch despite the relatively light dredging. If you’re missing a sauce almost any of Chick-fil-A’s sauce options pair perfectly with this sandwich, but our top choice is definitely the Buffalo Sauce, which adds a nice spicy kick to the sandwich without actually having to order the more expensive spicy version.

The Bottom Line:

It’s rare that you can get a fast food chain’s flagship food for under $5 but Chick-fil-A’s simple but delicious Chicken Sandwich makes the cut with a cent to spare! What are you going to do with that extra cent? Throw it in a fountain and wish for another sandwich.

Chipotle — Single Taco Hack

@naturallymayasimone

Replying to @iiiamkaila_ here is the step by step! #chipotlehacks

♬ original sound – Maya D. | Influencer

Price: $3.10

This is a repeat from our Best Fast Food Orders Under $3 list but it still stands as the best way to stretch your dollars at Chipotle. Generally, with these lists, we aren’t trying to provide you with a way to hack the menu and make the fast food employee who is serving you’s life a living hell, but this hack is just too good to pass up on.

This hack was put on our radar by TikTok user Wyaleen Ahmed and it’s pretty simple. Order a single taco and ask or a bunch of extra ingredients on the side, including beans, rice, fajitas, really anything that strikes your fancy and isn’t guacamole.

While Ahmed’s hack is pretty good, we think the better move is to order a crunchy taco loaded with your favorite meat (our choice is Barbacoa, no contest), fajitas, lettuce, and cheese with a side of rice, a side of pinto beans and a side of salsa, sour cream, and roasted corn salsa. You’re going to want to keep any wet ingredients out of this taco so that it doesn’t get soggy and start to crack. The end result will be a deliciously dippable taco with a side of rice and beans.

It might leave you wanting a little more, but there is no denying that this is a straight-up full meal.

The Bottom Line:

Order a single taco and let your creativity guide you. You’ll be surprised at just how much food you can order on the side.

Del Taco — Snack Tacos & Fries

Best Fast Food Under 5
Uproxx

Price: $4.76

You can get a whole feast of food at Del Taco for under $5. The taco chain has 20 different single items for under $2 but our favorite combination is the simple combo of two snack-sized tacos and an order of small fries. Throw some crinkle-cut fries into your soft taco and you’ll have a sort of ground beef potato taco hybrid. It’s meaty, salty, crunchy, and delicious.

It’s also a straight-up full meal (a slightly smaller version of Del Taco’s #1 Combo). You will come away from this order feeling full and satisfied, which isn’t always the case when you’re buying fast food on a budget.

The Bottom Line:

The best $5 you can spend at just about any fast food joint.

El Pollo Loco —Original Pollo Bowl

Best Fast Food Under 5
El Pollo Loco

Price: $4.99

El Pollo Loco’s Pollo Bowl is essentially a greatest hits package of El Pollo Loco’s best foods. You get slightly spicy and fluffy beans, delicious flame-grilled chicken, rice, onions, cilantro, and pico de Gallo, offering a fresh forkful of flavors. The chicken has a slight citrus flavor with a delicious char and a tender mouthfeel that pairs excellently with the well-seasoned slow-simmered beans.

The rice isn’t great, it’s almost flavorless, but it provides a nice texture to the whole dish and its blandness makes the fresh onion a bit more palatable. Drizzle some avocado salsa on this bowl and you’ll elevate the flavor with some spicy vegetal notes.

The Bottom Line:

All of El Pollo Loco’s best food in one bowl.

In-N-Out —Double Double Cheeseburger

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by In-N-Out Burger (@innout)

Price: $3.45

In-N-Out’s Double Double is by far the best double cheeseburger you’ll ever eat for under $5. This burger is so tasty that the fact that it’s so cheap just feels wrong, you almost want to give In-N-Out more money for it. It’s salty, savory, an absolute flavor bomb of beef and perfectly melted American cheese. For a more elevated spin on the dish, definitely order it with grilled onions to up the sweet and savory notes or get it Animal Style for no extra charge for some mustard-grilled patties that add a pungent complexity to the burger that makes it even more flavorful.

The Bottom Line:

The single best order on this entire list. It’s almost criminal that a burger this good can be this affordable.

Jack in the Box — Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger

Best Fast Food Under 5
Jack in the Box

Price: $4.49

Jack in the Box isn’t the ideal fast food spot to order food if all you’ve got is $5, everything here is pretty expensive with the exception of the Jumbo Jack. This single cheeseburger features a double serving of American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and thick-cut onions with a ketchup and mayo-buttered bun.

As far as burgers go, it’s just okay, the thick-cut pickles give the burger a pronounced earthy tang but most of the rest of the flavor comes from the ketchup and mayo, the meat itself is strangely flavorless and dull. Altogether, this is fine, it’s not going to blow you away but it’ll satisfy your hunger. It’s hard to believe that this costs a dollar more than In-N-Out’s delicious Double Double though.

The Bottom Line:

Not your best option for getting a lot of bang for your buck, but hey, it’s something. This is the best $5 you’ll spend at Jack in the Box.

Find your nearest Jack in the Box here.

KFC —A La Carte Chicken

Best Fast Food Under 5
KFC

Price: $3.59 (Breast)

When it comes to KFC, the best $5 you’re going to spend is going to be on a single piece of a la carte chicken. Pick whichever piece is your favorite (we went with Breast only because it’s the most expensive) but be sure to go with Original Recipe, which combines herbs like oregano, thyme, and rosemary with black pepper, garlic, and onion powder, resulting in one of the most flavorful single pieces of fried chicken you’ll ever have at a fast food joint.

If you like your chicken crispy, Original Recipe probably isn’t going to do it for you, but under no circumstances should you order the Extra Crispy style, which might provide more crunch, but seriously takes a hit on flavor.

The Bottom Line:

A single piece of chicken might leave you a little wanting but this is by far the best $5 you can spend at KFC. If you’d really like to stretch your dollar, order two drumsticks and you’ll still be just under $5.

Find your nearest KFC here.

McDonald’s — 6 Piece McChicken Happy Meal

Best Fast Food Under 5
McDonald

Price: $4.59

Hear us out, you don’t need to get the apple slices and the milk jug on the side (you can ask for more fries and soda) and while it’ll feel pretty ridiculous getting your food in a big colorful box with a toy inside, this is a full meal and one of the biggest steals on the entire McDonald’s menu. McDonald’s actual adult-sized nugget meal will only get you four more nuggets, but the price will be nearly double, this is pretty much the same thing only you’re getting slightly less and with chicken nuggets, less is more. With just six pieces of chicken, you have less time to think about the weird consistency and texture of the McNugget.

If you’ve never had McDonald’s chicken nuggets (what are you living under a rock?) they’re delightfully crispy with an airy batter that absorbs sauce nicely. Couple that with McDonald’s delicious French fries, and it’s a little hard to eat this meal without being… you know, happy.

The Bottom Line:

Yes, you will feel ridiculous when the drive-thru employee asks you “is the happy meal for a boy or a girl?” But who cares? What you get is delicious.

Find your nearest McDonald’s here.

Popeyes — 8 pc Hushpuppy Shrimp Dinner

Best Fast Food Under 5
Popeyes

Price: $5

This is subject to change as Popeyes always has a new $5 deal it’s promoting, but right now this mobile pick-up-only offer gets you eight pieces of fried hushpuppy shrimp with a biscuit and a side of cajun fries. You’re not going to get this much food from any other fast food chain for this little amount of money.

The shrimp is light and buttery with that classic crispy Popeyes breading while the cajun fries offer a blend of onion and garlic-powder-forward flavors with a buttery biscuit on the side that helps to ensure this meal is filling.

The Bottom Line:

Eight pieces of fried shrimp, fries, and a biscuit, need we really say more?

Find your nearest Popeyes here.

Raising Cane’s — Chicken Finger + Texas toast

Best Fast Food Under 5
Uproxx

Price: $1.59 (chicken) + .99¢ (Toast) + .99¢ (Toast)

This is sort of a repeat from our Best Order Under $3 roundup, but it still stands as the best way to spend $5 at Raising Cane’s considering even the Kid’s Meal at this chain will cost you more than $6. With $5 at your disposal you can get two pieces of Raising Cane’s garlicky Texas toast — which you need to order BOB-style (buttered on both sides) — giving you the perfect base to build a sandwich on. Simply shove your single chicken tender between the toast, top it with Cane’s sauce, and you’ve got one of the best chicken sandwiches in all of fast food.

Yes, seriously. It’s not the most filling sandwich, but the way the tender melt-in-your-mouth chicken combines with the garlic butter notes of the toast rivals even Popeyes chicken sandwich. You’d think with this bread and chicken at their disposal, Raising Cane’s would have the best chicken sandwich in the game but instead, this is an off-menu item. The actual Raising Cane’s sandwich is nothing but disappointment.

The Bottom Line:

One of the best chicken sandwiches in all of fast food, despite its tiny size.

Find your nearest Raising Cane’s here.

Starbucks — Bacon, Gouda, & Egg Sandwich

Best Fast Food Under 5
Starbucks

Price: $4.75

Your instincts might lead you to sausage, cheddar and egg sandwich because it looks like an Egg McMuffin but don’t make that mistake, it’s surprisingly not nearly as good as McDonald’s. Instead grab the Bacon, Gouda, and Egg Sandwich, Starbucks best breakfast treat. This sandwich features a few crispy strips of bacon over egg frittata with melted gouda cheese on an artisan roll. While the bacon is a bit too thin for our liking, it’s nice and crispy and tastes great alongside the rich flavors of gouda. You get a hint of parmesan nuttiness in the egg which makes this sandwich taste a bit more elevated than what you’ve come to expect from drive-thru breakfast.

Starbucks has some pretty good lunch options as well, but they’ll all cost you well over $5 unfortunately!

The Bottom Line:

A slightly elevated drive-thru breakfast sandwich.

Find your nearest Starbucks here.

Taco Bell — Classic Combo

Best Fast Food Under 5
Taco Bell

Price: $5

Taco Bell has all sorts of menu options that’ll cost you less than $5 but our favorite combination is the Classic Combo, which consists of a Beefy 5-Layer Burrito, a crunchy taco, an order of cinnamon twists, and a drink. It’s like a sampler of all of Taco Bell’s best foods compiled for your eating convenience.

The Beefy 5-Layer comes with seasoned beef, beans, cheese, nacho cheese sauce, and sour cream, offering a savory and salty experience that is strangely satisfying, even though each of the individual ingredients isn’t particularly delicious. When they come together, they just work though, especially if you’re stoned or under the influence.

While the crunchy taco isn’t as exciting, it’s got that classic Taco Bell flavor that you probably have a ton of nostalgia for. There are a few combo meals on this list that’ll get you a grip of food for $5, but none come with a dessert, making the Classic Combo truly stand out, even if the cinnamon twists are one of the weirdest snacks we’ve ever enjoyed.

The Bottom Line:

It’s a sampler of Taco Bell flavors that’ll leave both your stomach and bank account satisfied.

Find your nearest Taco Bell here.

Wendy’s —Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger Biggie Bag

Best Fast Food Under 5
Wendys

Price: $5

Taco Bell might give you a dessert with its $5 combo, but there isn’t a single meal on here that beats Wendy’s Biggie Bag, which combines two Wendy’s classics, The Jr. Bacon cheeseburger and spicy nuggets, with fries and a drink offering you a full meal with absolutely no compromises. The Jr. Bacon isn’t quite as decadent as the Baconator, but you still get Wendy’s juicy and savory beef patty and smokey bacon, which when combined with a side order of nuggets is more than enough to leave you full no matter how big your appetite us.

And that’s without mentioning the fries and drink! For a really satisfying combination of flavors, arrange your nuggets into the burger, cover it with a layer of fries, and now you have a crazy beef, bacon, French fry, fried chicken hybrid that’ll deliver a ton of satisfyingly savory meaty flavors with a kick of spice on the tail end.

The Bottom Line:

Wendy’s Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger Biggie Bag is hands down the best $5 you’ll ever spend on fast food. This meal makes no compromises for its value, offering you a full meal of some of Wendy’s greatest flavors.

Trump Is SO MAD At Fox News For Running Ads By The ‘Perverts And Lowlifes’ At The Lincoln Project That He’s Threatening To Sue The Network

For a person who has been at the center of so many lawsuits, you’d think that Donald Trump would have a better understanding of the legal system. Then again, if he did, perhaps he wouldn’t be at the center of so many lawsuits. Yet the newest legal threats surrounding the former president are coming from his mouth — and directed right at his former friends at Fox News.

As The Daily Beast reports, Trump is fuming that Fox News has gotten into bed with The Lincoln Project and is airing their newest ad, which — like so much of their work — is anti-Trump. Is there anything wrong with what Fox News is doing? Nope! Does Trump see it that way? Hell, no!

On Thursday morning, he took to his TRUTH Social account to complain not just about The Lincoln Project, which is running its latest ad in Trump’s neck of the woods in Bedminster, New Jersey (you can watch it above) — but also to bitch about Fox News taking money to air it:

The Perverts and Lowlifes of the Lincoln Project are back on, where else, Fox News. I thought they ran away to the asylum after their last catastrophic campaign, with charges made against them that were big time sleaze, and me getting many millions more votes in 2020 than I got in 2016. The Paul Ryun run Fox only has high standards for “Trump” ads, but not for anyone else. The Perverts should not be allowed to “false advertise,” and Fox News should not allow it to happen. See you all in Court!!!

So there you have it: Not only the former POTUS — and wannabe next POTUS — suing The Lincoln Project, but Fox News, too. Though they may have to get in line behind CNN and Hillary Clinton. We await Paul Ryun’s response.

Mike Lindell Reflected Fondly On His Past Crack Cocaine-Fueled Adventures And Jimmy Kimmel Can’t Help But Wonder If That Might Not Explain A Lot

Jimmy Kimmel has a bit of a soft spot for Mike Lindell, as evidenced by the fact that he once welcomed the pillow magnate as a guest (and Lindell could not have been more tickled). On Thursday, the late-night host admitted that he sort of missed being able to talk about Lindell while he was on vacation. Fortunately, the MyPillow man is still giving people plenty to talk about — and Kimmel has always sort of admired his tenacity.

While the bulk of Republicans, including Donald Trump, seem to have given up on the whole “stolen election” nonsense surrounding the 2020 presidential election, Lindell is still wasting millions of his own dollars to prove absolutely nothing. “He’s like if, instead of batteries, the Energizer Bunny was powered by insanity,” Kimmel remarked. Then shared a clip of Lindell waxing nostalgic about his days of being a crack addict.

The way Lindell told it, he was arrested and sent to jail for 19 days, but had a brilliant idea to try and hide just how messed up he was:

I had done all this cocaine before I went into the jail, and they’re gonna do a test. Well I took this stuff that’s supposed to make your system… so you can’t detect the cocaine, right? And you take down this bottle. So, boy, I just had a ball… Well, of course, you’re too good. There’s nothing bad in your system at all! You know, you’re completely clean. Well, that’s a big flag. You know, you’re TOO good, right? So they just waited three or four more hours ‘til that cleared up and they tested me again and I failed.

Kimmel wrote his own end of that story: “And now I’m completely cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.”

Lindell’s co-anchor seemed to have his own thoughts. Like: “How did I get here?”

Mike Lindell
Lindell TV

But Kimmel is really curious about what goes on inside Lindell’s once-drug-addled head. “Do you think he ever stops to consider that maybe the crack had something to do with this obsession he has?”

You can watch the full clip above, beginning around the 8:05 mark.

Childless people over 50 are honestly reflecting on whether they made the right decision

This article originally appeared on 02.08.22

People who decide not to have children are often unfairly judged by those who chose a different life path. People with children can be especially judgmental to women who’ve decided to opt out of motherhood.

“You will regret it!” is one of the most common phrases lobbed at those who choose to remain childless. Why do people think they’ll have such awful regrets? Because they often say they’ll wind up “lonely and sad” when they’re older.

They also say that life without children is without purpose and that when the childless get older they’ll have no one to take care of them. One of the most patronizing critiques thrown at childless women is that they will never “feel complete” unless they have a child.

However, a lot of these critiques say more about the person doling them out than the person who decides to remain childless. Maybe, just maybe, their life is fulfilling enough without having to reproduce. Maybe, just maybe, they can have a life full of purpose without caring for any offspring.

Maybe the question should be: What’s lacking in your life that you need a child to feel complete?


Studies show that some people regret being childless when they get older, but they’re in the minority. An Australian researcher found that a quarter of child-free women came to regret the decision once they were past child-bearing age and began contemplating old age alone.

People revealed the reasons they’ve decided to be childless in an article by The Upshot. The top answers were the desire for more leisure time, the need to find a partner and the inability to afford child care. A big reason that many women decide not to have children is that motherhood feels like more of a choice these days, instead of a foregone conclusion as it was in previous decades.

Reddit user u/ADreamyNightOwl asked a “serious” question about being childless to the AskReddit subforum and received a lot of honest answers. They asked “People over 50 that chose to be childfree, do you regret your decision? Why or why not?”

The people who responded are overwhelmingly happy with their decision not to have children. A surprising number said they felt positive about their decision because they thought they’d be a lousy parent. Others said they were happy to have been able to enjoy more free time than their friends and family members who had kids.

Here are some of the best responses to the Askreddit question.

1. Never had any desire.

“I explain it to people like this – you know that feeling you get where you just can’t wait to teach your kid how to play baseball? or whatever it is you want to share with them? I don’t have that. Its basically a lack of parental instinct. Having children was never something I aspired to. My SO is the same way.

“Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against children. And I get really angry at people who harm them or mistreat them. I just never wanted my own.” — IBeTrippin

2. No desire. No regrets.

“Nope. It was never something I wanted. No regrets.” — BornaCrone

3. Mixed feelings.

“I have mixed feelings. I don’t care much for children and I think it would have been disastrous for us to have them. I was also able to retire at 52. Pretty sure that wouldn’t have happened with kids. So yeah, absolutely the right decision.
But I love my family and I do wonder what it would be like to have my own, to teach my child the things I know and not to be without someone who cares about me at the time of my death.

“But again, absolutely the right decision and at 55 I’m very happy NOT to have them. This is reinforced every time I’m exposed to other people’s kids.” — ProfessorOzone

4. They never visit.

“My wife worked at a nursing home for years. Imagine seeing for years that over 95% of old people never have family visit. Till they die and people want a piece of the pie. This when I learned that the whole ‘well who is gonna visit you or take care of you when you’re older’ line is complete bullshit. We decided to not have kids ever after that. Made great friends and saw the world. No regrets.” — joevilla1369

5. It wasn’t an option.

“I don’t necessarily regret not having them, but I regret the fact that I wasn’t in a healthy enough relationship where I felt I COULD have children. I regret not being stronger to leave the abuse earlier, if I had been stronger, I think maybe I could have had the choice at least. So yeah… I have regrets.” — MaerakiStudioMe

6. Grandkids are cooler.

“No. I knew what I was getting into when I agreed to marry my husband. He had two sons from his first marriage and a vasectomy. He was worried because I was so young (comparatively, he’s 10 years older). I did think it over seriously and concluded that a life with him compared to a life without him but (perhaps!) with a baby I didn’t even have yet was what I wanted. It worked out for us, we’ve been together for 26 years. As a bonus I have 9 grandchildren. All the fun without the work of the raising!” — Zublor

7. I’d be a bad parent.


“Not one bit. I have never believed that I would be a good parent. I have a short temper, and while I don’t think I would have been physically abusive, my words and tone of voice would be harsh in a very similar way to my own father. I wasn’t happy growing up with that kind parent and I wouldn’t want to subject any child to that kind of parenting.”
— Videoman7189

8. I’d rather be the cool aunt and uncle.

“No and I found a partner who feels the same. We are the cool aunt and uncle.” — laudinum

9. Loneliness is underrated.

“54 yrs.old. I’ve lived the past 30 years alone. Presently my dog and I are chillin’ in a nice hotel on a spur of the moment vacation. I’d maybe be a grandfather by now?! I can’t imagine what it would be like to have family. I picture a life lived more “normally” sometimes. All sunshine and roses, white picket fence, etc. but I realize real life isn’t like that. No I don’t regret being childfree or wifefree for that matter. My life can be boring at times but then I look back at all the drama that comes with relationships and think I’ve dodged a bullet. I spent 20 years trying to find a wife to start a family. Then I realized the clock had run out, so fuck it, all the money I’d saved for my future family would be spent on myself. Hmmmmm…what do I want to buy myself for Christmas?” — Hermits_Truth

10. No diaper changes and no regrets.

“Nope. I never had the urge to change diapers or lose sleep, free time and most of my earnings. Other people’s kids are great. Mostly because they are other people’s. When people ask ‘Who will take care of you when you’re old’ I tell them that when I’m 75 I will adopt a 40-year-old.” — fwubglubbel

11. Zero desire.

“I’m 55 (F) and never wanted children. I just don’t much like them, and 20+ years of motherhood sounded (and still sounds) like a prison sentence. Maternal af when it comes to cats and dogs, but small humans? No chance.

“And I’m very happy to be childless. Cannot imagine my life any other way.” — GrowlKitty

“Dual income no kids = great lifestyle!” — EggOntheRun

13. Some regrets

“Over 50 and child free. My only regret is that my wife would have been a great mother, and sometimes I feel like I deprived her of that, even though we both agreed we didn’t want kids. Sometimes I wonder if I pushed her into that decision. She works with the elderly every day and sees a lot of lonely folks so it gets to her sometimes. I was always afraid I’d screw up the parenting thing, so I was never really interested in the idea. I’m a loner by nature though.” — Johnny-Virgil

‘Don’t Worry Darling’ Has Set An IMAX Record Already, So People Must Really Want To See It (Despite The Drama)

Despite the various on-and-off-set dramatics and some subpar reviews, people do want to see Don’t Worry Darling. Olivia Wilde’s thriller will be getting the IMAX treatment on September 19th with a live-streamed Q&A at various theaters around the country, which Florence Pugh will not be attending.

Ahead of the premiere, the movie sold out 21 Imax locations in 24 hours, becoming the fastest-selling IMAX premiere to date, according to a press release from the company. There were more than 13,000 tickets sold for the premiere event, while more than 15 additional locations are on their way to also being sold out.

This is most likely due to the parade of Harry Styles fans who are planning on seeing the pop star in his first lead role. Styles has been promoting the movie while simultaneously playing a 15-night residency at Madison Square Garden while dressed like a twirling baton.

The world has had its eyes on Don’t Worry Darling ever since the movie began filming amidst the pandemic. Rumors then swirled after Wilde had a messy split with her partner, Jason Sudeikis, and allegedly soon embarked on a relationship with Styles. The reported tension between Pugh and Wilde has been awkward ,as the two have been barely interacting while promoting the film (and that’s partially due to Shia LaBeouf) with Chris Pine being used as a buffer. But, Styles did not spit on him after all. The man deserves some more Star Trek movies after this!

Don’t Worry Darling hits theaters on September 23rd.

Michael Sheen’s Impromptu Pump-Up Speech For The Welsh Soccer Team Will Have You Ready To Run Through A Wall

Wales is headed to the World Cup for the first time since 1958, a monumental accomplishment for the soccer-mad nation. Wales will be in group play alongside England, the United States, and Iran, opening the competition against the U.S. on November 21.

With Gareth Bale at the helm, the Welsh have a legitimate superstar but are otherwise underdogs to advance out of the group, with the U.S. and England as the favorites. Still, after an impressive qualifying run that saw them go through the playoffs, defeating Ukraine 1-0 in the playoff final, they have to feel like they have a punchers chance to make a little noise.

In case the squad isn’t fired up enough by going to the World Cup for the first time in 64 years, Welsh native Michael Sheen delivered an impromptu hype speech on a TV program that had everyone on set ready to fight for Wales once he reached the crescendo and brought the speech home.

The best part of this is watching the reaction of everyone else around him as they can’t help but get pumped up by his speech themselves. I don’t think the host imagined it would be this good when he asked for it, as he ended it saying he’s never felt more Welsh, while Micah Richards looks like he’s ready to go play 90 minutes for the Welsh squad immediately.

If Wales doesn’t fly Sheen into Qatar for their first match to get the boys fired up, I’m not sure what they’re doing, because while motivational speeches and forced efforts to hype teams up can sometimes land flat, this is genuinely incredible and I would like to go run through a wall now for Wales, a place I have never been.

Funk Flex Debuts An Unreleased DMX Song After Challenging Swizz Beatz To Dig Into X’s Vault

DMX’s passing in April 2021 shook the hip-hop world to its core, especially after seeing him look so jovial in his 2020 Verzuz battle with Snoop Dogg. While the legendary rapper no longer exists on this plane, he left behind his classic discography that has been and will be hailed for generations. Though his first posthumous album Exodus, recorded while X was still alive and executive produced by Swizz Beatz, was shared a month after his passing, for some, namely Funkmaster Flex, it wasn’t enough.

On last week’s Hot 97 radio show (September 1), the DJ challenged Swizz to send him a record from X’s vault. Evidently, Swizz Beatz answered the call as Flex debuted an unreleased Dark Man X record on his Thursday night (September 8) radio show. The song samples Big Daddy Kane’s 1988 record “Ain’t No Half-Steppin’” and features production from Marley Marl.

“Unreleased, we don’t know when it’s coming out,” exclaimed Flex after playing some of the track. Notably, Swizz Beats can be heard on the record saying “When I say ‘DMX,’ y’all say ‘The great.” Rightfully so.

Swizz Beatz has spoken previously on how he wants to handle X’s music that has yet to be released in an interview with The Breakfast Club. “Let’s do something masterful with it. Let’s treat it as art and curate it to where it adds to his legacy and is not just a blip of a moment that seems like it works, but you still don’t understand the whole story.”

Check out the unreleased DMX record via Swizz Beatz and Funk Flex above.
