Sandra Oh wearing a onesie and diamonds is the energy we all need in 2019
Sandra Oh pretty much won the entire 2019 Golden Globes. She co-hosted the show with Andy Samberg, took home an awardand moved everyone with her acceptance speech, and she killed it on the red carpet with her Killing Eve co-star Jodie Comer.
And now, she's also won big in the category of "Best Morning After Pic". Oh posted a photo of herself lying on the floor wearing a onesie and the diamond necklace she wore to the Golden Globes afterparty.

The internet made sooooo many jokes about Trumps fake news trophy tweet
Perhaps the biggest bummer about Twitter's new 280-character limit is that it allows the current president to compose tweets like this one:

On Monday morning, President Donald Trump hit Twitter to suggest a "FAKE NEWS TROPHY" for whichever news network he deems produces "the most dishonest, corrupt" coverage of his presidency. As usual, Fox was excluded from Trump's media rage.
In the same tweet, Trump referred to himself as the American people's favorite president with a parenthetical "(me)." According the most recent Gallup(opens in a new tab) poll, the self-described "favorite" president's approval rating currently sits at 37 percent.
Naturally the internet jumped all over Trump's first tweet of the day. Some even have a solid suggestion for Trump's proposed "FAKE NEWS TROPHY":

Project Entrepreneur expands accelerator program to help more women entrepreneurs build scalable companies
Since launching in 2015, Project Entrepreneur(opens in a new tab) — a media partner of Mashable — has trained more than 1,200 aspiring entrepreneurs representing 131 U.S. cities. Its annual venture competition has yielded an alumnae community of nearly 400 women entrepreneurs, with the 2016 finalists reporting $10+ million raised in seed and pre-seed funding.
Now entering its third year, Project Entrepreneur (PE) — an initiative from the Rent the Runway Foundation and UBS Elevating Entrepreneurs(opens in a new tab) — is expanding the number of winning companies in the accelerator from three to five.
“We are so excited to continue working with UBS in providing women with the tools they need to create high-growth companies, and see their visions through,” said Jennifer Hyman, CEO and Co-Founder of Rent the Runway. “Past participants in our accelerator continue to inspire us with their incredible progress, including closing rounds of funding. We are eager to provide the next class of talented female founders with the tools and support they need to scale, and to see the disruption their companies bring to various different industries.”
PE's annual venture competition is open to female founders who are in the prototype or beta stages, have their first paying customers, or are generating revenue. The top 200 applicants will be invited to attend the PE Intensive in New York City on April 13-14, 2018, a free two-day event comprised of in-depth workshops, expert speakers and a pitch competition. The five winning founders will each receive a $10,000 grant, a spot in the five-week accelerator program at Rent the Runway’s New York office and mentorship and engagement with UBS executives, entrepreneurs, and investors. Founders interested can apply online(opens in a new tab); but don’t wait, as the deadline is December 1st!
Last year’s winning companies included: New York-based LOLI Beauty(opens in a new tab), the first BIY (Blend It Yourself) clean and green beauty brand; Scottsdale-based The Touchpoint Solution(opens in a new tab), a neuroscience wearable that alleviates stress by altering the body’s stress response in as little as 30 seconds; and San Francisco-based Lace & Liberty(opens in a new tab), merging direct-to-consumer convenience with luxury bespoke bridalwear. Two additional New York-based companies were hosted by The Knot/XO Group Co-Founder Carley Roney and designer Rebecca Minkoff: Repeat Roses(opens in a new tab), a sustainable floral waste removal business that gives back to people and planet, and Reboundwear(opens in a new tab), athleisure wear with a purpose, respectively.
“The caliber of companies we're seeing through Project Entrepreneur further validates what we've always believed — that there is an incredible population of talented female founders in cities and towns across the country,” said Lori Feinsilver, UBS Head of Community Affairs & Corporate Responsibility, Americas. “Being able to reach these women and provide them with access to resources and support that will help fuel their growth gives us confidence that we can indeed level the playing field.”

Two people trying to run the same government agency makes for a really awkward first day
Revolutionaries, take note -- if you're planning a government takeover, please use high quality breakfast pastries.
That's a lesson that White House Budget Director Mick Mulvaney(opens in a new tab) apparently hadn't learned when he stepped into the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau today. He was there to take on an additional job as the agency's director.
The only problem? The agency's acting director, Leandra English, refused to cede it to him, in the workplace drama of the decade.
As a Trump appointee, Mulvaney wasn't exactly welcomed at at the job, so he brought crappy Dunkin' Donuts as a way to "ease" himself into an agency he's expected to destroy.
SEE ALSO:
Sorry, Cards Against Humanity can't stop Trump's wall
On Friday, Director Richard Cordray(opens in a new tab) stepped down, leaving English to serve as acting director. Last night, English filed a lawsuit claiming that she is the "rightful acting director" of the agency. English has asked the court to impose a temporary restraining order to prevent Trump from appointing anyone, arguing that she is entitled to her position under the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform Law(opens in a new tab).
Mulvaney brings donuts to his first day at CFPB. Couldn’t hurt. pic.twitter.com/BpKJ2nd1L0(opens in a new tab)
— Katie Rogers (@katierogers) November 27, 2017(opens in a new tab)
None of that stopped Mulvaney. On Monday, the Budget Director stepped into the CFPB, ready to take on his new job.
This is how English responded in an email sent to 1,600 staff.
"I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. With Thanksgiving in mind, I wanted to take a moment to share my gratitude to all of you for your service,” English said(opens in a new tab), signing the note with her title, "Acting Director."
And that, my friends, is what we call a death drop.
Via Giphy(opens in a new tab)
Here's how Mulvaney responded:
“Please disregard any instructions you receive from Ms. English in her presumed capacity as acting director.” Mulvaney said(opens in a new tab). “I apologize for this being the very first thing you hear from me. However, under the circumstances I suppose it is necessary. If you’re at 1700 G Street today, please stop by the fourth floor to say hello and grab a doughnut.”
If Mulvaney, a budget hawk, thinks he can sway members of an agency whose jobs he's poised to eliminate with Dunkin' Donuts, he's out of his mind. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau(opens in a new tab) was explicitly designed to protect consumers from banks and credit card companies. Mulvaney once famously called the agency "sad" and "sick." He is not, as members of the agency likely know, their friend.
And dude, if you're going to try and win your staff over with breakfast pastries, at least go for something slightly more delicious than Dunkin'. Some suggestions:
Krispy Kreme
Entenmann's Coffee Cake
Savory bacon cheddar scones
Literally anything else
The case is currently being decided. In the meantime, here's Twitter's majority opinion on the issue:

Woman posts video of crocodile attack, and it is heartstopping
Welp, this is a close call.
A tourist was bitten on the leg by a crocodile on at Cape Tribulation in Queensland, Australia on Monday night, while standing on a creek bank close to the waters edge.
SEE ALSO:
Maybe don't get a photo with your friends inside a crocodile trap
A Queensland Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (EHP) spokesperson said in a statement the crocodile was estimated to be 2 to 2.5 metres (78 to 98 inches) long.
A video posted on the Facebook page of Ally Bullifent shows the crocodile attack, which comes out of nowhere. It'll be sure to give you a shock.
The EHP said it would carry out a site assessment of the area on Tuesday, and will possibly target the crocodile "for removal" as it has displayed dangerous behaviour in a designated area. This means it'll be moved to a crocodile farm or a zoo, according to the Cairns Post(opens in a new tab).
For authorities, it also serves as a reminder about staying safe in areas where crocodiles might be around. Earlier this year, an 18-year-old boy was attacked by a crocodile while reportedly trying to impress a girl.

Town crier who announced Prince Harrys engagement to Meghan Markle is 100% fake
England, with its quirky traditions and old-fashioned customs, is a land of endless fascination for outsiders, nominally for people from the former colony of the U.S.

The most adorable revelations from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's first interview
So it's understandable why a town crier -- with his elaborate, red and gold robed dress and tricorn hat -- attracted people's attention on social media when he was depicted in an ABC News video as he announces the news of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's engagement outside of Buckingham Palace:

Business Insider posted a similar video, calling him "the Royal Town Crier":

However, it turns out the eccentric guy is not officially appointed by the Queen, nor is he a real town crier. His real name is Tony Appleton, from Romford, east London, and he's been making royal announcements for years, bell and scroll on hand.
In 2013, he fooled prominent American broadcasters(opens in a new tab) including Rachel Maddow and Anderson Cooper when he announced the birth of Prince William and Kate's firstborn, Prince George, outside St. Mary's Hospital.
"I'm a royalist. I love the royal family," he told (opens in a new tab)AP(opens in a new tab), while acknowledging he had no official royal role. "I came unannounced."

The meeting took place after months of discussion between Kardashian and Jared Kushner, according to Vanity Fair(opens in a new tab). Kardashian asked the president to pardon Alice Marie Johnson, a woman serving a life sentence without parole for a first-time drug offense.
Before the meeting, Kardashian tweeted a birthday message for Johnson.

Apparently prison reform hits home for Kushner, who has firsthand experience with an incarcerated family member after his father Charles was charged with tax evasion, illegal campaign contributions, and witness tampering. Charles Kushner was jailed(opens in a new tab) from 2005 to 2006.
The young Kushner even carried a wallet that his father made for him while serving prison time for his white collar crimes.
Since the experience, Kushner has vowed to make prison reform a key issue as a senior White House adviser, according to Vanity Fair. He's lobbied for the First Step Act, a bipartisan bill that helps inmates transition back into society more smoothly with job training and drug treatment programs. The bill, which passed the House last week(opens in a new tab), also gives inmates with nonviolent charges the chance to finish their sentences in halfway houses and house arrest. It's also seen its fair share of criticism(opens in a new tab).
Kardashian has been scrutinized for defending her husband Kanye West after his controversial tweets supporting Trump and far-right figures. But prison reform is something that she's been vocal about in the past; on Monday, she tweeted her support for Matthew Charles, a former inmate who turned his life around after 21 years of incarceration. Charles is required to serve another 10 years because his original release was a clerical error.

She also shared a tweet about a man who was sentenced to only 90 days of house arrest after raping a child.

Kardashian has also hinted at political aspirations. In an unaired clip from Khloe and Lamar, she pondered running for mayor(opens in a new tab) of Glendale, a town in the greater Los Angeles area, because of its prominent Armenian population. (It's worth noting(opens in a new tab) that Glendale doesn't have mayoral elections -- instead, its city council appoints a member to serve as mayor for one year.) Despite her past misinformation about the town's bureaucratic structure, it's possible that she used this meeting to sow seeds for future political gain.
Kardashian hasn't made a public statement about the meeting yet, aside from tweeting the birthday message for Alice Marie Johnson. Is there a chance we'll get to see a behind the scenes of the meeting on the next season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians? Possibly -- although season 15 doesn't have a premiere date yet. A Variety report(opens in a new tab) revealed that the Kardashian/Jenner/West empire milked a deal with E! that will keep them on the air until 2020.
Donald Trump Jr swam in a swamp full of gators who declined to eat him
Settle down everyone, promo pics from a new Shrek film weren't released over the weekend — that's just Donald Trump Jr neck-deep in a literal gator-infested swamp.

Sometimes, a good public outcry is all you need.
After female tennis player Alizé Cornet briefly removed her shirt while changing on the court of the U.S. Open on Wednesday, the umpire issued her a warning -- and immediately incited outrage. Fans complained that similar warnings had not been issued to male tennis players.
On Wednesday, the U.S. Open actually responded(opens in a new tab) to complaints and issued a public apology.

"We regret that a Code Violation was assessed to Ms. Cornet yesterday," the statement said, according to BuzzFeed News(opens in a new tab). "We have clarified the policy to ensure this will not happen moving forward."
U.S. Open Director of Communications Chris Widmaier clarified(opens in a new tab) the new policy on Wednesday.
"Players who do change their shirts will not be assessed a code violation ... We regret that Ms. Cornet was assessed a code violation. However, luckily, she was assessed a warning only and there was no further penalty above a warning."
"When possible, if a more private location is near a court and is requested, that player will be allowed to go to that private location to change, and they will not be assessed a bathroom break."
This seems...reasonable. Earlier on Wednesday, the Women's Tennis Association released a statement of its own, stating that it does not have a "rule against a change of attire on court."

A ramen thief stole a trailer with almost $100,000 worth of noodles inside
From the half a billion dollars worth of art stolen(opens in a new tab) from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum to the time an Irish assassin scammed(opens in a new tab) his way into stealing the crown jewels at the Tower of London, none of history's memorable getaways quite compare to the hungry thief in Georgia who got away with a trailer full of ramen noodles.

According to local TV station WAGA(opens in a new tab), a trailer parked at a gas station in Fayetteville outside of Atlanta, was hauled away sometime between July 25 and August 1. The station reports that the trailer was reportedly packed with $98,000 worth of ramen noodles.
How many packets of ramen noodles can $98,000 even buy? How does one even fit that many packets of ramen noodles into one 53-foot-long trailer?
Sheriff Barry Babb didn't have those answers. Per the Tribune Media Wire(opens in a new tab), he did confirm "the owner of the trailer had permission to park the noodle trailer at the gas station and it was 'secured' when it was stolen."
Add "The Great Noodle Heist of 2018" to the list of unsolved mysteries.

Oscar Mayer is releasing a hot dog-infused ice cream sandwich
A food evil greater than pineapple pizza has emerged, and we need to band together for some good ol' fashion public shaming.
Sound the ice cream truck alarm, because a accursed food is on its way: hot dog ice cream.
The food fight began with the mustard company French's, who announced their collaboration with Coolhaus(Opens in a new tab) to bring us French's Mustard Ice Cream in honor of National Mustard Day on Saturday. Heinous, but not deplorable. The food truck bringing this to the masses will at least carry a pretzel cookie to cleanse your palate, and also your sense of what is right in the world.
But we're not here to talk about them today. Another brand stepped up to the plate to challenge them, upping the culinary anté when it was really not necessary. Oscar Mayer has announced the Ice Dog Sandwich. Yes, you read that right.

"You may have heard that a certain condiment brand released an ice cream yesterday," the press email reads. "But, who eats just mustard? Condiments were made for an Oscar Mayer hot dog... so today, we announce the Ice Dog Sandwich: a hot dog infused ice cream with real bits of candied Oscar Mayer hot dogs served alongside spicy mustard ice cream."
The two flavors (which should not be cold in the first place) will be sandwiched between two cookie "buns." Oscar Mayer's rationale for this creation? "Because a hot dog for dinner should be chased by a hot dog for dessert." NO.
The experience of eating a hot dog with mustard should not be translated into a frozen form. I feel like I'm living in a parallel universe where up is down and Netflix doesn't cancel good shows after their second seasons(Opens in a new tab).
As a certified chicken nugget-peeler, I almost feel like I have no moral high ground to stand on in terms of this debate. Don't cast nugget stones in glass fast food houses, ya know? But sometimes you come across something so unbelievably wrong that you have to unpack it a little.
As you can see by the responses to the announcement, people are a little grossed out. Even the poll in Oscar Mayer's tweet currently states 80 percent of voters chose "No — I eat condiments solo."

Feisty young racehorse escapes stables, rampages through betting bar
After the week that was, there's nothing more satisfying than watching a young racehorse rampaging through a French betting bar.
Customers merrily spending their morning at a local establishment in Chantilly, north of Paris, were rudely interrupted by a young bucking horse around 10 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 24.

A police horse walks into a bar and no one is sure what's going on
In CCTV footage taken from the PMU bar (that's Pari Mutuel Urbain, France's national betting system), the lively and seemingly panicked filly prances through the tables and chairs, while customers flee.
According to French newspaper Ouest France(opens in a new tab), the hoofed anarchist had fled approximately one kilometre (0.6 miles) from its stable within a training facility near Chantilly's racecourse.
According to witnesses who talked to the publisher, the bar door was slightly open, and customers saw the horse coming, but didn't think it would actually come into the bar. Luckily, no one was injured.
"She came in, pushing the door. She raced all the way to the PMU corner. Then, the filly turned around, breaking a table and chairs," bar owner Stéphane Jasmin told the newspaper, as per Google Translate.
So, how did this young rebel escape? The horse's trainer, Jean-Marie Béguigné, told OF: "Between the track and the stables, his rider fell. The filly escaped by going on the road, crossing a roundabout before entering this bar."
Although the renegade was reportedly apprehended in a car park, and returned to the stable, Béguigné said the horse has "a penchant for escape."
Needless to say, folks were rather taken with this cheeky cheval.

Trump criticized after making careless comments about the coronavirus on Fox News
Please, do some research before listening to anything Donald Trump says about the coronavirus.
In an interview with Fox News on Wednesday night, Trump spoke very freely about the new coronavirus (which results in the disease that's been officially named COVID-19(Opens in a new tab)). Let's just say not everything the president said coincided with the advice of public officials.
In a clip shared to Twitter by Matt Rogers, Chief Strategist at Politidope(Opens in a new tab), Trump can be heard saying "A lot of people will have this and it gets better very rapidly, they don't even see a doctor, they don't even call a doctor. You never hear about those people, so you can't put them down in the category of the overall population in terms of this coronaflu, or virus. So you just can't do that."
Trump goes on to say, "If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better by sitting around and even going to work, some of them go to work, but they get better."

In addition to advising people to properly and frequently wash their hands and refrain from touching their faces, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has also urged anyone who feels ill or exhibits coronavirus symptoms to stay home from work(Opens in a new tab) in hopes of preventing potentially deadly germs from spreading.
With more than 95,000 confirmed coronavirus cases around the world(Opens in a new tab) and more than 3,200 coronavirus-related deaths, Trump's comments — which seemed to downplay the severity of the global situation — were criticized to the extent that he felt the need to issue a tweet.
"I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work," Trump tweeted on Thursday morning. While it's true he didn't outright say that people with the coronavirus should go to work, he essentially implied that if you're exhibiting symptoms of the disease you don't have to take them seriously because there's a chance you'll heal on your own.

Trump also said that some people with symptoms go to work and "get better" but did not condemn that choice or echo the concerns of healthcare professionals and public officials. His comments come a day after he said he hadn't touched his face in weeks, which was clearly a lie.

Watch LeBron James high five himself after hes left hanging
LeBron James, NBA superstar and GOAT contender, was left hanging on the bench Sunday night when the Lakers faced off against the Atlanta Hawks.
James didn't seem bothered, but there's surprisingly a lot happening in this little three-second clip.

NBA's new streaming service lets you watch some games without going broke
First, the obvious: LeBron reaches out to teammate Dwight Howard for a standard high five. Howard, who is 6'10" and quite used to blocking shots, rejects LeBron in an entirely different way, not even acknowledging the attempt. Howard then slaps hands with a man in a navy blue suit instead.
Once LeBron notices what just happened, he high fives himself. Because why not? But then, the man in the dark grey suit behind LeBron decides he wants to be a hero. Having witnessed the stone-cold rejection in front of his face, he ponders for a brief moment and then boldly reaches his hand out to LeBron as a consolation. That man is then, left hanging. Oofs all around.
And then there's the man in the light grey suit and tie, whose face reads, How long until Howard gets cut?
As strange and hilarious as it is to see players get left hanging, LeBron is only the latest in a slew of NBA legends to airball a high five.
Thanks to this montage from YouTube channel Hoops Card, you can watch Steph Curry, Russell Westbrook, Blake Griffin, and... LeBron James, again, feel the cold sting of a failed high five. It's as if it's a rite of passage for NBA stardom, which for LeBron, means it was going to happen sooner or later.
