Daily Fail

It seems our desperate attempts to make web journalism smart again haven’t worked yet. We’ll keep at it. This week in daily fails: 
-Emily Ratajkowski went out in public wearing clothes and eyeglasses, which is very brainy of her
-Meghan McCain won’t let her kids go to college and get woke-ed
-Taylor Swift fans are apparently all wearing adult diapers to their cult leader’s three hour ritual sacrifice… we mean concert.

Another banner week for ethically dubious and aesthetically questionable news. Maura and Kristen discuss:

• A study suggesting that Boomers are actually more health conscious than “Millennials,” which at this point has a very nebulous definition
• A rancid approach to memorializing Tina Turner: remembering every awful thing that ever happened to her, and none of the good stuff
• A covert effort to assault Kate Middleton by making jokes in shows whose personnel have marginal ties to Meghan Markle

Another week of content has been cranked out by your least favorite internet tabloid, and Maura and Kristen are taking one for the team to break it down for you:

• All Japanese people have forgotten how to smile because of masks, apparently?
• Top 10 relationship red flags that should preclude you from being in a relationship to begin with
•  A lip reader decodes an innocuous conversation between two members of the Royal Family, and it is SALACIOUS (it is not)

  In short: are women allowed to exist? More at 11.
