CONGRATULATIONS, CHUNK!

America has a new favorite fat bear. Overcoming a broken jaw and an injured paw, Bear 32, also known as ‘Chunk,’ was proclaimed the winner of this year’s “Fat Bear Week.” In the week-long annual competition, viewers follow 12 bears via webcam as they gorge on salmon at Alaska’s Katmai National Park and Preserve, and then vote for their favorite in an online bracket competition. As salmon swim upstream to return to their native spawning grounds, the bears wait, catch and devour as many as they can to bulk up before their coming winter hibernation. According to Katmai National Park ranger Sarah Bruce, an estimated 200,000 salmon made their way up the Brooks River in the park this year. At the competition’s end, Chunk’s final weight was estimated to be around 1,200 pounds. #nature #fatbearweek #katmainationalpark #bears #animals #salmon #news

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Collider has made a controversial list of the scariest horror movies from each year of the past decade, and I haven’t heard of at least a couple of them (Bone Tomahawk??). What do you think?

Vulture has an incomplete list of horror streaming this month, but it’s a start. 

A reminder that The Haunting of Hill House is filled with hidden ghosts, making a rewatch a fun little game of finding them all.

Happy 50th, Rocky Horror Picture Show!

Bad Bunny, our next SNL host and Super Bowl Halftime Show headliner, is an American. It’s stupid that I have to write that, but there are waaaaaaaay too many of our friends on the Right who don’t seem to understand that being born in Puerto Rico is the same as being born in America, because PUERTO RICO IS AMERICA. At any rate, Bad Bunny recently pissed off a bunch of people on the Right by not only being born Puerto Rican, but by saying he didn’t come to the mainland of America on his most recent tour because, “The issue of – like, f—ing ICE could be outside [my concert]. And it’s something that we were talking about and very concerned about.”

The administration helpfully just made his point for him, that they would target Bad Bunny’s show looking for immigrants — a point that, when Bad Bunny made it, people were legitimately insulted by — by announcing that ICE will be at the Super Bowl:

“There is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people in this country illegally. Not the Super Bowl and nowhere else,” (Corey) Lewandowski said Wednesday on “The Benny Show.”

“We will find you. We will apprehend you. We will put you in a detention facility, and we will deport you. So know that that is a very real situation under this administration, which is completely contrary to what how it used to be,” he said.

And to further make his point explicitly clear, Lewandowski added:

“It’s so shameful that they’ve decided to pick somebody who just seems to hate America so much to represent them at the halftime game,” he said.

“I was at the Super Bowl last year with President Trump. I had the chance to be in Louisiana in his box and watch the game, and got to enjoy that,” Lewandowski told Benny Johnson. “But listen, we should be trying to be inclusive and not exclusive. There are plenty of great bands and entertainment people out there who could be playing at that show that would be bringing people together and not separating them.”

“BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER AND NOT SEPARATING THEM”????? SIR. YOU ARE LITERALLY SAYING THIS AT THE EXACT SAME MOMENT YOU ARE THREATENING TO SEPARATE SUPER BOWL ATTENDEES FROM THEIR COMMUNITIES. CAN YOU NOT HEAR YOURSELF, YOU WOMAN-BEATING RACIST LUNATIC? I need to go lie down.

We’re doomed.

Fascinatingly, while we don’t trust “the media,” we have a lot of trust in individual journalists. 

Wait, so this criminal presidency had the endorsement of a criminal rapper? Color me shocked.

This is an explainer on how the voting on Dancing with the Stars works and I’m more confused than ever.

Congratulations, Michael Gelman!

Mariah Carey is all of us.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s divorce is rapidly becoming messy, and all I have to say is that between the two, I wouldn’t want to go up against Kidman’s PR team.

Hey, Bill Burr? It’s not the people of Saudi Arabia who are the problem. It’s the people who rule Saudi Arabia and paid for you to be there who are the problem. But you already know that because you’re not stupid, just greedy.

And Dave Chappelle? What are you even going on about? May I introduce you to Jamal Khashoggi? Or, you know, the contract you signed for this comedy festival that outlined all the things you were NOT ALLOWED TO SAY?

Love is dead.
