Jimmy Kimmel’s brutal Oscars jab at Melania Trump did not go down well with Trump’s administration

When Jimmy Kimmel took the stage at the 2026 Academy Awards to present the award for Best Documentary Feature Film, there was always a high chance he was going to use his moment on the mic to throw shade at the Trumps. Kimmel has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump and the current administration, trading regular barbs with the POTUS and even seeing his late-night talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! suspended following criticism over comments he made in the wake of the Charlie Kirk assassination. Given that Melania Trump released her documentary, Melania, in January, it was likely to be the case that the FLOTUS found herself in the firing line with Kimmel in charge of handing out the award for documentaries. And he did not disappoint those hoping he would lean into the anti-Trump rhetoric, taking to the stage at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre and joking: “There are also documentaries where you walk around the White House trying on shoes.” Referring to President Trump, he adde...

My Algebra Teacher Put Me Down in Front of the Whole Class All Year – One Day I Got Fed Up and Made Her Regret Every Word

When I was in high school, my algebra teacher spent a whole school year telling me I wasn't very bright, in front of everyone, every single time. Then one day, she accidentally handed me the exact opportunity I needed to prove her wrong. I heard the front door slam before I got up from the couch. My son Sammy's backpack hit the hallway floor, and his bedroom door closed hard. I didn't need a word from him to know the day had been rough. "Sammy?" I called. "Just leave me alone, Mom!" I didn't need a word from him to know the day had been rough. I went to the kitchen, came back with a bowl of his favorite chocolate bites I'd baked that morning, and knocked before opening his door. He was face down on the bed, a peak 15-year-old, and groaned without lifting his head. "I said, leave me alone." "I heard you," I replied, and sat beside him. I set the bowl where he could reach it and ran a hand over his hair. Sammy sat up and took a ...

10 strange things men may find unattractive about women over 50

Aging is a beautiful, inevitable journey – one that comes with wisdom, confidence, and a stronger sense of self. But let’s be real, dating dynamics can shift over time, and for women over 50, certain traits or habits might be perceived as “unattractive” by some men. Does that mean you need to change? Absolutely not. But understanding these perceptions can be eye-opening and a lot entertaining. So, let’s dive into the top 10 things some men might find unappealing about women over 50 – and why they really shouldn’t matter if you’re living life on your terms. 1.

Experience brings confidence, and confidence is sexy! 2. Retrospective We all have stor...

More people are coming out as Aegosexual – here’s what it means

As discussions around sexuality become more layered, so does the vocabulary used to describe them. One term now drawing attention is aegosexual, an “identity-less” experience that’s defined by “disconnection.” With gender and sexuality now part of everyday conversation, it’s no surprise that a growing number of new labels are finding their way into the mainstream. Aegosexuality, part of the asexual spectrum, describes people who experience arousal or desire without wanting to engage in sexual activity. At its core, the identity centers on a disconnect between experiencing attraction and wanting to personally act on it. ‘Disconnection’ The concept was first introduced in 2012 by Canadian psychologist and sexologist Anthony Bogaert, who originally referred to it as “autochorissexualism.” Bogaert described the experience as an “identity-less sexuality,” that’s “characterized by a disconnection between their sense of self and a sexual object or target.” In practical terms, someone wh...
