You know who has it tough in America? Straight, white, Christian males. Sure, nearly every president has been straight, white, and Christian, and they’ve all been male, but no matter. They’ve been victimized and silenced for too long, at least according to conservative Succession inspiration Tomi Lahren.

“It’s pretty clear, everyone is allowed to have an opinion in this country EXCEPT for straight, white, Christian males. And it’s BULLSH*T!” the Fox News contributor tweeted. It’s hard to tell what she’s talking about, specifically, considering her tweets pivot from conspiracy theories about the Allen, Texas mass shooting (“Anyone else think it’s a little weird we haven’t heard anymore about the Allen, Texas outlet mall shooter, who was supposedly a Hispanic “white supremacist…”) to tagging random sports leagues (“Professional sports (all of them) need to make a decision and NOW. Either you support your athletes having social/political opinions or you don’t. You don’t get to pick and choose who is “brave” and who must apologize. @MLB @NFL @NHL @NBA”).

What is clear, however, is the near-universally negative response to Lahren’s take. “No matter how much power, money and influence they attain, what they will never relinquish is the idea that they are the forever victims – because that’s one of the ways they attained so much power, money and influence, by selling that lie to the gullible,” reads one quote-tweet, while another wondered, “Where does she live that straight white males don’t dominate the conversation and legislation? I’d like to know so we can move there.”

It’s the one thing that unites everyone, straight and gay, white and Black, Christian and Jewish and Muslim, male and female and non-binary: dunking on Tomi’s tweets.

Matt Gaetz is once again trolling Marjorie Taylor Greene as the Georgia congresswoman continues to steadfastly support Kevin McCarthy, who has given her several top committee assignments after she backed him during the contentious Speaker of the House vote. This time around, Greene has come out in support of McCarthy’s debt ceiling deal, but not without locking down some concessions.

“If you have to eat a sh*t sandwich, you want to have sides, OK? It makes it much better,” Greene told reporters. “So what I’m looking for is, I’m looking for some sides and some desserts.”

While sharing a photo of an uncharacteristically docile Greene outside McCarthy’s office, Gaetz cracked a joke that the congresswoman is being held hostage. “Blink twice if under duress,” Gaetz tweeted. However, Greene is not under duress. She told reporters that she has specific demands that she’s hoping to secure.

Via The Hill:

Greene named two “sides” in particular: A vote on a balanced budget amendment and another on legislation to prevent the hiring of new IRS agents — not only in 2024, as the bipartisan debt-limit bill would do — but also in the years to follow.

As for her “beautiful dessert,” Greene is hoping to get at least one impeachment, and it doesn’t have to be Joe Biden. She’s willing to go after Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who Greene described as “the lowest hanging fruit.”

Of course, this is Marjorie Taylor Greene we’re talking about, and it’s no surprise that she picked the Biden official who was the center of a House meeting that led Greene to be chastised by her own party for using “extreme rhetoric.”

It’s been nearly four years since we last checked in on the dystopian storytellers over at Black Mirror, and things sure have changed since season five. While the anthology series is known for its dark and twisty takes on modern technology and social media, the upcoming season is shaping up to be the boldest yet…if you can believe it. Creator Charlie Brooker says that viewers should expect the unexpected, which we were already expecting, so this should be even more unsuspecting. Do you follow?

Booker recently told Tudum, “Partly as a challenge, and partly to keep things fresh for both me and the viewer, I began this season by deliberately upending some of my own core assumptions about what to expect,” Brooker explained. “Consequently, this time, alongside some of the more familiar Black Mirror tropes we’ve also got a few new elements, including some I’ve previously sworn blind the show would never do, to stretch the parameters of what ‘a Black Mirror episode’ even is. The stories are all still tonally Black Mirror through-and-through — but with some crazy swings and more variety than ever before.” That’s a lot coming from the man who made us afraid to have thoughtful memories.

So queue up “On A Roll” by Ashley O and get ready for a new season of realizing that your phone is probably trying to kill you. Here’s what you need to know.

Plot

Netflix promises that this season will be the wackiest yet, and considering the stories from last season, it seems like the show will enter full chaos mode. The streamer says season six is the most “unpredictable, unclassifiable, and unexpected season” of the award-winning series, which is a lot coming from the show that showed a man having sex with a pig way back in season one. They have released a brief synopsis for every episode:

“Joan Is Awful” An average woman is stunned to discover a global streaming platform has launched a prestige TV drama adaptation of her life — in which she is portrayed by Hollywood A-lister Salma Hayek.
Directed by: Ally Pankiw
Written by: Charlie Brooker
Starring: Annie Murphy, Salma Hayek Pinault, Michael Cera, Himesh Patel, Rob Delaney, Ben Barnes

“Lock Henry” A young couple travel to a sleepy Scottish town to start work on a genteel nature documentary – but find themselves drawn to a juicy local story involving shocking events of the past.
Directed by: Sam Miller
Written by: Charlie Brooker
Starring: Samuel Blenkin, Myha’la Herrold, Daniel Portman, John Hannah, Monica Dolan

“Beyond The Sea” In an alternative 1969, two men on a perilous high-tech mission wrestle with the consequences of an unimaginable tragedy.
Directed by: John Crowley
Written by: Charlie Brooker
Starring: Aaron Paul, Josh Hartnett, Kate Mara, Auden Thornton, Rory Culkin

“Mazey Day” A troubled starlet is dogged by invasive paparazzi while dealing with the consequences of a hit-and-run incident.
Directed by: Uta Briesewitz
Written by: Charlie Brooker
Starring: Zazie Beetz, Clara Rugaard, Danny Ramirez

“Demon 79” Northern England, 1979. A meek sales assistant is told she must commit terrible acts to prevent disaster.
Directed by: Toby Haynes
Written by: Charlie Brooker and Bisha K. Ali
Starring: Anjana Vasan, Paapa Essiedu, Katherine Rose Morley, David Shields

Cast

As with every other season, each episode is standalone, which means a new set of actors for every installment. Season six features the likes of Salma Hayek Pinault, Annie Murphy, Zazie Beetz, Michael Cera, Paapa Essiedu, Josh Hartnett, Aaron Paul, Rory Culkin, and more throughout the five-episode season.

Release Date

Pink is baring it all — and not just in her music. Yesterday (May 30), she took to Instagram to share some pictures she took over the weekend. It appears she spent Memorial Day weekend at a lake.

But unlike many of us, her camper appeared to have an outdoor shower, and it looks like she put it to good use.

The “Trustfall” singer posted a picture of herself showering, fully nude, with doodles covering the private areas. Pink suggested that the picture was taken by her husband, Carey Hart.

“Lake weekends and a new ridiculous bathing suit,” said Pink in the post’s caption, referring to another image in the carousel in which she is wearing a transparent bikini top covering her breasts.

She continued, saying, “If you haven’t showered outdoors while your husband tries to scare you every five minutes you haven’t lived!!!!!!”

Of course, Hart couldn’t get enough of the nude singer. He commented on the post with four salivating emojis.

Gwen Stefani, who coined the phrase “this sh*t is bananas” on her 2004 single “Hollaback Girl,” also approves of the selfies, and the bikini as well.

Pink is set to embark on her Summer Carnival Tour beginning in July, and it will kick off on July 24 at Rogers Center in Toronto.
