Trump’s tweet criticising Kim Jong-un makes a lot more sense as if you read it from this perspective

TwitterFacebook

This feature puts Donald Trump’s tweets a lot more into perspective.

A recent tweet by the U.S. President criticising his North Korean counterpart Kim Jong-un, makes a lot more sense once you read it in its more befitting form: a middle school insult. 

“Why would Kim Jong-un insult me by calling me ‘old’, when I would NEVER call him ‘short and fat’?” Trump wrote in a tweet on Sunday. “Oh well, I try so hard to be his friend — and maybe someday that will happen!”

Though the tweet might sound a bit immature, it makes perfect sense once you read it from this perspective: Read more…

Donald Trump denies he’s using the AT&T-Time Warner merger to get revenge on CNN

TwitterFacebook

President Donald Trump was always against a merger between AT&T and Time Warner, and he’s always hated CNN. So the appearance that he was using his position to force Time Warner to ditch CNN to close the $85 billion deal made a strange, vindictive kind of sense. 

Now, however, Trump is denying any attempts to exact revenge on his cable news nemesis. 

Trump said he “didn’t make that decision. That was made by a man who is actually a very respected person, a very, very respected person,” Variety reported. Trump made the comments—likely about Justice Department antitrust chief Makan Delrahim—during his trip through Asia.  Read more…

Trump has changed dating forever. Ugh.

TwitterFacebook

It’s been a year since Trump got elected, and a lot has, umm, changed in that time — especially our need for love.

From the get-go, Trump’s chaotic reign has forced us all to think about politics morning and night — there’s no escape, even when we’re just trying to find someone to watch Netflix with. How you see this upheaval depends on your party affiliation, but it’s clear that something has changed.

There’s new evidence to back up the shift we’ve all sensed in the ether. Data from eHarmony shows that there has been a surge of mentions of Donald Trump from its users. It first started to climb after he got the nomination, but there were notable jumps both around the time of the election and the inauguration. Read more…

Hilariously weird game about a trash hole is basically just Twitter

TwitterFacebook

Let’s all just come out and admit it: We’re garbage people.

Not in the evil sense, of course. But those of us who take part in the virtual, vacuous hole known as the internet can all agree we’re part of the garbage dump. 

It’s hard to not become garbage, in some capacity, when you contribute to this all-consuming vortex of content, opinions, pointless arguments, anger, etc.

That’s basically the concept behind Donut County, a hilarious upcoming physics puzzle game by Ben Esposito that delights in the eccentric. Deceptively simple, Donut County is all about the pleasures of destruction — while simultaneously tackling serious subjects like online divisiveness and gentrification. Read more…
