How to pretend you've seen the 2017 Oscars' Best Picture nominees: 'Moonlight.'

0
0

The 89th Annual Academy Awards are on Sunday, February 25th, and the show is sure to dazzle, entertain, and send Donald Trump into a massive tweetstorm.

Hollywood’s biggest night is the Super Bowl for non-sporty folk, an opportunity to get drunk on a Sunday and collectively scream at the TV. This year, the Academy nominated nine movies for Best Picture, humbly requesting that you spend approximately 27 hours consuming the content. We realize you may happen to have a life outside of the movie theater, so we at Someecards are here to help with cheat sheets for the five Best Picture nominees you need to know about to fake your way through an Oscars watch-party.

Following our rundown on the one that will win—La La Landhere is everything to know about the one that should win: Moonlight.

What Happens in Moonlight

Spoilers ahead!

Kids grow up so fast—and in Moonlight, we see Chiron grow from up from boy to teen to adult in 111 minutes. It's a coming-of-age story that will relate to anyone who has ever come of age before. It's sad that it took a century of cinema to finally get to see the struggles of being black, poor, and gay all at once on screen, but Moonlight finally brings the issues to light for a wide audience.

Like an episode of This American Life (or, you know, a play), it is divided into three acts.

Act I: Little

  • Chiron, then a little kid called "Little" because of his size, meets Juan, a drug dealer who truly has a heart of gold, and becomes his surrogate father, Juan teaches him how to swim, and that if he's gay, it's okay. His mother calls him the F-word in a harrowing sequence over instrumental music and powerful lighting that'll make you resent the color fuchsia.

Act II: Chiron

  • Chiron, now a teenager, continues to be bullied by his peers. He's still close with Juan's girlfriend Teresa, but we find out that Juan has died somewhere between Acts I and II, which really isn't fair. Chiron has a sexual encounter with his childhood friend, Kevin, but later Kevin is recruited to beat him up as part of a hazing ritual. Chiron whacks the kid who pressured Kevin with a chair, and then we see him escorted into a police car.

Act III: Black

  • Years later, Chiron is a drug dealer in Atlanta going by the name "Black." While physically very strong and buff, he is still sensitive and sad. One night he receives a call from Kevin, who apologizes for his actions as a teenager. Chiron drives down to Miami to see Kevin, who works in a diner. Later at Kevin's apartment, Chiron confesses that he had not been intimate with anyone else since Kevin, let alone another man. They embrace. But do they kiss? We don't know.

If you liked the technicolors and musical drive of La La Land, you’d love them in a movie that means something!

Smart things to say about Moonlight

  • “Some people are calling this ‘Black Boyhood,’ but it’s not about boyhood. It’s about manhood.”

  • "Mahershala Ali's performance is truly exemplary. He's only in the first third, but his presence is felt the whole movie."

  • “Hot take: Mahershala Ali isn’t in this movie long enough to warrant an Oscar.”

  • “I, like, ‘shipped Chiron and Kevin so hard. They better have hooked up.”

  • "This film doesn't give us a clean, tidy resolution because life doesn't give us a clean, tidy resolution."

  • "Fact: Paula, Chiron's mom, is based on both screenwriter/director Barry Jenkins and playwright Tarrell Alvin McCraney's moms."

  • "This is an important movie for Trump's America. We have racial, socio-economic issues for Trump and dangerous homophobia for Pence."

  • "Almost all of the world's problems can be tracked back to an oppressive definition of masculinity that destroys individuals and communities alike."

How to pretend you've seen all the 2017 Oscars Best Picture nominee: La La Land.


The real reason flight attendants make you open your window shade is kind of scary.

0
0

Have you ever been dozing on a plane as it begins its final descent, only to be jerked awake by a flight attendant asking you to raise your window shade so the bright sun can burn your retinas?

If so, you're not alone—this is still standard procedure during takeoff and landing on most airlines. But the flight attendant isn't doing it just to punish you for asking for an extra baggie of corn chips. Like most of the little annoyances that make flying miserable, this is actually an important safety precaution that could save your life in the event of a horrible accident/fireball.

Condé Nast Traveler reports that flight crews are instructed to make sure all the cabin windows are open for purposes of visibility in the case of an evacuation. U.S. regulators require that any aircraft can be evacuated in under 90 seconds, so any additional time required for the crew or passengers to adjust to the light could mean the difference between survival and a gruesome death.

Allowing natural sunlight into the cabin lets everyone adjust in advance—a crucial step when you consider that most plane accidents happen on takeoff or landing. It also lets the crew see outside the plane during those critical moments. Furthermore, if the plane is evacuated, it will allow everyone on board to move away from the fuselage faster without the disorienting effect of stepping into bright sunlight. And trust me, you're going to want to move away from that fuselage.

So next time a flight attendant politely asks you to open your shade, don't throw shade back at them. Thank them for doing everything they can to keep you from exploding.

This viral video points out 8 famous actors who have never made a good movie but keep getting work.

It's hard to say what a makes a "good movie" good, but it's pretty easier to pinpoint what makes a bad movie bad. Although movie taste is subjective, there are those rare instances when nearly everyone can agree on the general suckiness of a film, and a lot of time the failure lands on the shoulders of the performers. The folks over at the popular YouTube channel WhatCulture put together a viral video that makes the compelling case that these eight actors have never been in a good movie, but continue to get work anyway.

Oh to be good looking and...good looking.

Hey! My middle-school self loved Dude Where's My Car! Sure, it didn't pick up any Oscars, but admit it— you totally giggled when they did the "sweet/dude" tattoo bit and ran around yelling "Zoltan!" for weeks.

Cinematic gold.

Of course, this list is mostly just kicking B-List actors when they are down. Poor, poor Daniel Baldwin— not only is on this list, but he is also not Alec Baldwin. That's gotta be rough.

This single mom has gone viral for the brilliant way she spent her tax return.

0

Tax returns, if you're lucky enough to get one, are basically free money that is meant to be spent on lavish trips and Lotto tickets or just burned in a fire, right? Not necessarily. Christina Knaack is a single mother who received a whopping tax return of $5,600. But instead of going on a week-long shopping spree, she decided to spend it on a roof over her and her kids' heads by paying her rent for an entire year, in advance.

She posted a photo of the mind-blowing rent check and it went viral:

She explained in the post:

I got back $5600 on my taxes. Instead of buying my kids the latest Jordans or fancy electronics I paid my rent for the YEAR. I'm a single mom and I do it all buy myself on a minimum wage job. I kno that a roof over my kids head is what's important. My kids don't want for anything because my priorities are straight. And this also means I will have that extra 450 a month to do things with my kids.

Knaack's post has been shared over 80,000 times on Facebook, which just shows that this kind of responsible spending is super rare.


Lots of people praised the thrifty mom in the comments, and many were inspired by her fiscal responsibility:

Of course, many others offered judgment and unsolicited advice:

But Christina Knaack seems like she's doing just fine on her own. BYE, HATERS.

Congratulations to NASA on finding new planets we can ruin.

Woman goes viral for protecting her man with a single boot-clad foot.

Sit down, internet. There's another viral bae to keep track of. Meet #bootbae. When another woman tried to approach her boyfriend, she was not having it. So she used her boot to stop it.

A video of the woman's brilliant shut-down was posted to Twitter on Wednesday.

The tweet went viral overnight. It currently has over 136,000 retweets and 179,000 likes. The woman has become known throughout the internet as #bootbae.

And many Twitter users were quick to point out the abundance of viral baes the internet has brought us in 2017 so far.

And while the video is great, I know what you're really thinking: "Where did she get those killer boots?"

Luckily, one savvy Twitter hero figured out where to buy them. (They're at GoJane, in case you were wondering.)

Welcome to viral fame, #bootbae.

Now you can buy underwear with fake camel toe built right in. Yes, we're confused, too.

So apparently camel toe is a fashion trend of sorts in Asia, according to a website called NextShark. For anyone who doesn't know (is there anyone who doesn't know?), camel toe is what it's called when the shape of a woman's external genitals are visible through her pants. In general, visible camel toe a thing that women want to avoid, not draw attention to. But maybe that's all changing?

This underwear has fake camel toe built right into it. Camel toe on top of camel toe. Hey, folks, CHECK OUT MY CAMEL TOE!

In ecru and black, for all your fashion needs.

NextShark reports that some retailers market the underwear to men who are trying to appear effeminate.

Wow, check out the camel toe on that lady! Maybe she's born with it...maybe it's FAKE CAMEL TOE.

Now even if your actual genitals aren't up to the task of standing out awkwardly, you can get fake genitals in your underwear for enhancement. Like butt pads, but for your front!

Dictionary slams Kellyanne Conway's 'alternative' definition of feminism with cheeky tweet.

0

On Thursday, top Trump advisor and everyone's favorite alternative genius Kellyanne Conway offered her thoughts on feminism. Speaking at the same Conservative Political Action Conference that nearly hosted former Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos, Kellyanne Conway said she's not a "classic" feminist.

"It's difficult for me to call myself a feminist in a classic sense because it seems to be very anti-male, and it certainly is very pro-abortion, and I'm neither anti-male or pro-abortion," said the woman who coined the phrase"go buy Ivanka's stuff."

Conway also celebrated something she calls "individual feminism, if you will, that you make your own choices. ... I look at myself as a product of my choices, not a victim of my circumstances."

Because feminism has nothing to do with acting "very anti-male" or "very pro-abortion," the world's sassiest dictionary sent out a tweet.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary elaborated on their website, where they explained that interest in the actual definition of feminism had increased on Thursday following Conway's comments.

Kim Kardashian's Sweet 16 video is actually super sweet.

Kim Kardashian West honored her late father Robert Kardashian's birthday on February 22nd with a sweet throwback to her super sweet 16.

People will recognize Robert from the approximately 20 hours of O.J. Simpson-related TV we watched in 2016, and everyone recognizes Kim Kardashian from everywhere, and it's sweet to see a tender father-daughter moment between people we hear so much about.

After the grand reveal of the new car, Robert has a sweet moment with the camera. "Hey Kimberly. Hope you enjoy your brand new automobile," he says, "Happy birthday. You are the best, you're gorgeous, you deserve this automobile, and it better be clean every week."

It's an episode of My Super Sweet 16, before there even was a My Super Sweet 16.

Watch a guy hit 240 green lights in a row and you will be satisfied forever.

There's nothing more satisfying than hitting every green light on your drive home from work. So imagine if you hit 240 in a row, over the course of a half hour, while driving through New York City. That's what taxi driver Noah Forman accomplished in December 2016, when he set out to break the Manhattan record for consecutive green lights, which was 100 (a record he himself set in 2014).

This time, he carefully planned everything, starting his journey at 3:30 AM, and driving down Fifth Avenue—a stretch whose timing he understood very well. Amazingly, he managed to hit approximately 240 greens before being caught by his first yellow, smashing his old record and setting a new gold standard for cabbies everywhere. What's more, he and his team recorded the whole thing, and turned it into this deeply satisfying time-lapse clip set to a smooth hip-hop groove.

Forman explained to Gothamist why he felt the need to break his own record:

I wasn't satisfied with that number, these two years have gone by and much has changed, people are driving slower, stopping in random places, crossing four lanes of traffic. More trucks are out at night, a lot more uber cars are on the road… I was hoping to push my goal up to a large number like 500 green lights, but I'll settle for this: no stopping, smooth, well mostly smooth sailing, for an estimated 240 lights, one yellow, all the rest green.

Here's the full unedited clip of his record-breaking achievement.

This is truly remarkable. I live in New York, and I don't think I've ever been in a cab that hit a green before. Most cabbies will only drive through yellows and reds on principle.

'Human Ken doll' broke up with 'Barbie' girlfriend for a very superficial reason. Shocking!

0

Dating is hard enough for us mere, non-plastic mortals. So just imagine trying to find your perfect match when you're a human Ken doll. Like Quentin Dehar for example, a 24-year-old who lives in France and has fully dedicated his life and savings to looking like Ken, the Mattel doll.

But Dehar, whose quest to look like Ken has cost him nearly $116,000 in plastic surgery, found the plastic pot for his plastic lid. In 2013, he met Anastasia Reskoss, a woman who has spent over $160,000 on plastic surgery to look like a human Barbie doll, the Daily Mail reports.

She looked like this:

#throwback #blondgirl #2014 #shooting #beforesurgery 👩🏼

A post shared by Anastasia : 💄👠💅👑👛💋 (@anastasiiadoll) on

A love connection was struck and they became girlfriend and boyfriend, living in a perfect Barbie world and spending all of their money on plastic surgery together. Awww.

As you can see from this photo of the couple in 2015, they sure looked like the perfect match:

But looks can be deceiving, and soon there was trouble in plastic paradise. Specifically, Anastasia succumbed to the winds of change and decided to change her hair color from blonde to dark brown. She now looks like this:

#brunettegirl

A post shared by Anastasia : 💄👠💅👑👛💋 (@anastasiiadoll) on

"#brunettegirl," she wrote in the caption. Quentin was less than thrilled about the change, which ended up being the "final straw" that ended their relationship.

"I separated from Anastasia because I fell out of love with her," Dehar told the Daily Mail."I realized we were growing apart for a while, but the final straw was when she dyed her hair from blonde to a very dark brown."

He continued: "Ken does not like brunette girls! I wanted to spend the rest of our lives together morphing into the Ken and Barbie dolls we love, but Anastasia was no longer committed to that dream."

Wow. This is one of the most superficial reasons for a breakup I've ever heard. And yet, not that surprising given that he's literally a human Ken doll.

Dehar described himself as a "single and independent Ken now" but added "it would be nice to find love again." He said he hasn't found someone although he often gets hit on by women, who he describes as "bimbos" (I'm starting to understand why he's single).

"I meet bimbos from time to time who show interest in me and I'll take photos with them, but I soon become suspicious of their intentions," he said. "'Most of these girls just want the fame and popularity that comes with being with the 'French Ken.'"

So basically, he's looking for a woman who is a human Barbie doll but also down-to-earth enough to like him for who he is and not his "fame"? Got it. Okay. Good luck buddy!

And if you happen to be a super-blonde, single human Barbie doll looking for your Mr. Right (but not at all interested in fame or status), I've got the man for you. MUST LOVE being blonde, staying blonde, and ALWAYS be "committed to the dream."

Dr. Pimple Popper takes on a teen's most stubborn blackheads.

Hey popping fans, get ready for part two of the stubborn blackheads extractions by Dr. Pimple Popper (real name Dr. Sandra Lee). That's right, this guy's got so many blackheads, and they're just so damn stubborn, that their appointment is a two-parter (you can watch part one here). Dr. Pimple Popper manages to soften some up and with the occasional "baby pinprick" (scalpel) to help, out the blackheads come.

Ah, just check out that sweet, sweet keratin and sebum. Dr. Pimple Popper keeps apologizing to the teen because she knows it's painful, but he swears it hurts more when his mom does it. Either way, neither the teen nor Dr. Pimple Popper can stop saying "sorry."

Look at that blackhead snaking its way out of the pore. These suckers really do not want to leave his face. But when they finally do, it's just so satisfying. Time to leave your skin nest, little keratin plug, and Dr. Pimple Popper is just the person to do it.

Aly Raisman opens up to Chrissy Teigen about body image and the 'Sports Illustrated' swimsuit edition.

Olympic champion Aly Raisman brought her gymnastics skills to the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition, making her modeling debut in those famous pages. Raisman sat down with veteran model and long-time Trump troller Chrissy Teigen to discuss what it means to her to be featured in the magazine.

Along with MJ Day, the editor of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, Raisman opened up about her insecurities.

Olympians: They're just like us!

"It's an incredible feeling because I feel like a couple of years ago I wouldn't have had the confidence to do it," she says.

"How do you have insecurities, though?" Teigen interrupts, surprised that an Olympic athlete—whose athletic vigor perfects the human form—worries about her body.

Repost from @si_swimsuit! reminds me: need to make wax appointment.

A post shared by chrissy teigen (@chrissyteigen) on

“I used to be so insecure," Aly tells Chrissy, "I thought my arms were too muscular, but now I’m growing to like them.

But she said that the photoshoot helped her overcome it.

“It’s so empowering to be out there and just, you have insecurities just like everyone else," she says, "Your body’s not perfect, but you feel confident and beautiful.”

'Walking Dead' T-shirt pulled from stores for 'racist' phrase you've definitely used.

0
0

People have found yet another item to be completely outraged by. (It's like the Starbucks cups all over again.) The culprit this time? A Walking Dead T-shirt.

Clothing retailer Primark pulled the t-shirt from stores after it sparked complaints of being "racist" and "fantastically offensive."

The t-shirt depicts a baseball bat covered in barbed wire and the phrase, "Eeny meeny miny moe," which The Walking Dead's resident bad boy, Negan, said as he picked out his victim in the show's Season 6 finale. The line in the show is followed by "catch a tiger by his toe."

Though there is some debate over the rhyme's history, The Huffington Post reports that early versions of the rhyme had the N-word in place of the word "tiger."

According to the BBC, a customer named Ian Luncraft complained to Primark about the shirt. He told The Sheffield Star that he and his wife were "shocked" when they saw the t-shirt, and called it "fantastically offensive."

"This image relates directly to the practice of assaulting black people in America," Luncraft told the Star. "It is directly threatening of a racist assault, and if I were black and were faced by a wearer I would know just where I stood," he added.

After the outcry, Primark pulled the t-shirt from stores and issued the following statement:

The T-shirt in question is licensed merchandise for the US television series, “The Walking Dead,” and the quote and image are taken directly from the show. Any offence caused by its design was wholly unintentional and Primark sincerely apologises for this.

A lot of people agreed with Primark's decision to pull the t-shirt, but many aren't buying that the shirt is racist or offensive.

Someone even launched a petition to bring the shirt back.

Sigh. Will the internet ever agree on what we should or should not be outraged by?

Beyoncé dropped some bad news about Coachella and Twitter is having a meltdown.

Bad news for fun free spirits with disposable incomes: Beyoncé will not be performing at Coachella this year after all due to the fact that she is creating two demigods babies in her womb (in case you've been living on a desert island with no Wifi for the past month, yes, Beyoncé is pregnant with twins).

Coachella released the announcement on Facebook earlier today:

Following the advice of her doctors to keep a less rigorous schedule in the coming months, Beyoncé has made the decision...

Posted by Coachella on Thursday, February 23, 2017

"Following the advice of her doctors to keep a less rigorous schedule in the coming months, Beyoncé has made the decision to forgo performing at the 2017 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival," they wrote.

HOWEVER, since you can't just promise the people Beyoncé and then take Bey back, the music festival promised the singer will be headlining next year's festival in 2018.

We're going to be okay, guys. We just have to wait until 2018 to see Beyoncé live while surrounded by sweaty twenty-somethings on Molly. We will survive!!!!!!

Twitter, however, is not taking the news well.

Bad news, buddy.

Although many people saw this coming.

And others are refusing to settle for less than the very best to replace Bey. Valid.

And at least a few people are relieved and/or DGAF:

For those of you planning to go to Coachella this year, I'm sorry for your loss. For everyone else, this is not bad news. We can just keep on watching Beyonce's Grammys performance on loop from the comfort our homes, where we never have to wait in line for a port-o-potty.

Although I would reconsider going if only to see Bernie Sanders perform "Irreplaceable." 🎶To the left, to the left.🎶

John Legend brilliantly trolls Donald Trump with cheeky Instagram post.

As John Legend flew into Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, he spotted the perfect opportunity to troll Donald Trump. (He's not going to let Chrissy Teigen have all the Trump-sassing fun.)

Legend took this aerial photo of the National Mall as his plane was landing and posted it to Instagram with a cheeky caption that brilliantly threw shade at our new commander-in-chief.

"As you can see, millions are gathered in the National Mall, awaiting my arrival!!!" Legend wrote in the caption.

Lol.

John Legend's post seems to be a nod to the tweet that went viral showing side-by-side photos of the crowd at Obama's inauguration in 2009 vs. the one at Trump's in 2017. (Trump later bragged about how big his crowds were.)

Does anybody want to take bets on what ungodly hour Donald Trump will start tweeting angry rants about how John Legend is "overrated" tomorrow morning? I'm going to go with 4:57am. Leave your guess in the comments!

This couple took 'breakup photos' because why should engaged couples have all the fun?

Being in a relationship is soooo over. In 2017, it's all about the hot breakup! Former couple Harrison Bach and Jacqueline Martin, both 22, dated for three years before breaking up just over a year ago. Since the breakup, they've remained in each others' lives, as many exes do. Because letting go is the worst.

“Being that we were each other’s first significant others, first lovers, first all of that, there’s a weird sense of nostalgia,” said Bach. “When we go home, what feels more normal than just seeing that person you spent all your time with?”

While the duo were both in their hometown this past New Year's Eve, Bach had a "quirky" idea: a photo shoot to document their breakup. You know—kind of like an engagement photo shoot, but minus all that boring "happily in love" stuff.

Does this sound awkward and sad?? Well, it is. But it's also kind of refreshing. Bach posted the pics on Facebook where his friend spotted them and tweeted them out:

"My buddy from wmu took 'break up photos'??" he wrote. "Like they broke up. And took photos."

The pics went viral, and people on Twitter weighed in. The responses ranged from total confusion...

...to amusement.

And a lot of people pointed out how "white" this is.

I mean, fair point. But even if these pics do look like stills from my ex bf's indy rock band's music video, I'm a fan of the concept. Breakup pics are real, raw, a total bummer, and WAY more fun to look at than sappy engagement pics.

Congrats to the sad not-a-couple-anymore!
