Trump has waged sexist war on Kellyanne Conway's husband. That escalated quickly.

Rather than deal with literally anything else that the President of the United States should be dealing with, Donald Trump is escalating his "feud" with the husband of a senior aide who said that he has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, thus proving "Mr. Kellyanne Conway's" point.

Kellyanne and George Conway have been running this "odd couple" act for awhile, in which Kellyanne helps Trump institute his baby-snatching agenda and George calls the president insane on Twitter.

Trump has just about had it, and is calling George the "husband from hell," which is likely what ALL THREE of the Trump wives have said at one point.

The president also, quite tellingly, called Conway "Mr. Kellyanne Conway" as if being known for your wife is the ultimate emasculation. Somebody needs to tell Mr. Melania Trump to #BeBest.

Conway one-upped Trump's attempted insult with a reminder that he's been implicated in federal crimes.

Mr. Kellyanne also cheekily thanked the president for raising awareness of this particular mental illness.

The shoutout is now his pinned tweet.

The Conways' Good Cop/Bad Cop shtick has been going on for so long that you can't help but wonder what these two Republican operatives are going for.

You've heard that "unconditional love" was a thing, but would you still be sharing a bed with somebody you knew was working with an existential threat to the United States and life on earth?

If your boss used his perch as the president to cyberbully the father of your children, would you still help him ban transgender people from the military?

Is this some weird psycho-sexual power play we're being forced to watch because Trump is president?

Meanwhile, here's what the 44th president is up to.


Woman pregnant with quadruplets wants to abort only the boys. But she has reasons.

Deciding whether or not you want to have an abortion can be a difficult decision, especially when the situation is complicated. And here's the thing about life: situations are often complicated. A decision that only requires black and white thinking is a rarity, and there are so many potential factors that can make this one complex.

This is all especially true for a woman (user PlaneGanache) who posted on Reddit about a tough decision she is facing for her abortion. She is pregnant with four babies, but can't afford to keep all of them. She found a way to make the difficult decision about which ones to keep, but not everyone agrees with her logic/morals.

Her post reads:

I'm 27f and my husband is 30. We tried for a few years to have baby, long story short, it didn't work out and we ended up going through a couple rounds of IVF.

Fast forward. We find out we're pregnant and we are super happy, like over the moon ecstatic. We couldn't wait for the 12 week mark to tell people, and started working on a nursery right away.

However, we go to our scan and find out we are having FOUR babies. Four. That's insane. I'm cutting a lot of backstory out because honestly, it's hard for me to talk about. At the time, my husband and I are just in shock, but happy we have healthy babies.

Now, I'm a small woman, 5'0 and very petite. At my next scan, it was suggested I consider aborting two of the pregnancies for the sake of my body, and to be honest, I was quietly considering bringing this idea up to my husband anyway because of the money involved with raising four children. We could afford two babies, but no way could we afford four.

Me and my husband are distraught that this is our reality, but we went home and tried to figure it out. From our latest scan, we know we have identical twin girls and two fraternal boys in there. If we go through with the selective abortion, which we most likely will, I brought up that I would like to keep the two girls as they are identical twins (I'm hoping they have the 'twin bond') and also, to be honest, I've always wanted girls.

My husband is on board with this, but as soon as I told my mother and sister the scenario they kicked off, calling us selfish, entitled, saying we are searching for designer babies, etc.

The way I see it is that we have to make a choice which babies go if we do this, and it breaks our hearts that we are in this position but we need to do what we can for the sake of our children. This story sounds so tragic, like a soap storyline or something but it's honestly the hardest thing I have ever done.

So, my question is both AITA for having a preference in this?

*AITA stands for "Am I the asshole?"

You might have assumed that this would spark an online debate for the ages, seeing as the topic of abortion seems to have that effect on the comments section. But in a major twist of events, most people were incredibly supportive. Yes, you read that right. People online were overwhelmingly supportive of a woman and her right to choose.

abermarm didn't think she was the asshole for her choice, but did have some extra advice to give:

NTA - but can I give you a bit of advice? Tell your parents and sister and whomever else you confided in that the doctor is now thinking that two of the embryos are no longer growing as they should so you and your husband are leaving it in the hands of fate. After every scan let them know that two have stopped growing.

Because I guarantee you - one day someone is going to tell your little girls that you killed their brothers. Don't take that risk.

*NTA stands for "Not the asshole."

MyDeeLoo also provided something to consider:

No judgment. In a case like this, most doctors would abort the fetuses closest to the cervix. You should go with what's safest for you and the babies. Sorry you're in this tough situation.

Llol_59 had some supportive words for the couple:

NTA. It's your body your choice. And you should only care about your husbands opinion.

Selaura pointed out why this woman's parents were wrong:

NTA. You are the people that know your life and finances best. You know your own capabilities and your relatives will not be raising these children. "Designer babies" conjures up thoughts of people choosing height, eye color, hair, etc. Just realizing that you realistically cannot handle four babies isn't being selfish.

hyperion was super supportive:

You don't owe a nonexistent person anything, neither the damage to your body nor your finances. I know abortion's a politically divisive issue, but seriously, it's ridiculous for you to feel any shame at all for your decision. In Vitro Fertilization often causes these situations, and there is absolutely no reason for you to raise four children rather than the one you signed up for.

But adou_ had a rebuttal:

I agree with exactly what you’re saying, but it’s the idea of the person that fetus can potentially become, and the life long thought of what ifs because you will never forget having an abortion unless you’re a complete psychopath. Not saying it’s wrong or right I guess my point is, is that the consequence of doing that is the life long thoughts about what could’ve been your son or daughter in this case plural.

What do you think? Is she the asshole, or is her family? Let us know in the comments!

30 jokes about working in retail that are way funnier than the customers' riffs.

Working retail is an ongoing practice in patience and restraint. No matter how many times people push your boundaries, talk down to you, and monstrously mess up a pile of freshly folded shirts, you have to convince yourself that a lifetime in jail is NOT worth the satisfaction of murdering them on the spot. As with most practices in restraint, it's much easier said than done.

Sometimes the best way to get through a testing retail shift is to imagine what you wish you could say, the bare honesty you so deeply want to unearth on the next high-maintenance customer who treats you like their personal servant. This is why the internet is such a beautiful tool, it gives you a place to air all these grievances and find your fellow retail veterans ready to tear their hair out.

Regardless of whether you're currently in the trenches, or you worked retail in the past, these 30 tweets will hit the spot.

People are screaming over the new 'Stranger Things' trailer. And not just because of the monsters.

Netflix dropped the trailer for season 3 of Stranger Things this morning and the internet is here.for.it. Netflix rarely disappoints when putting together a jaw-dropping teaser, and this one is certainly no exception. The lewks are iconic, the music is on point, there's a giant, gooey screaming monster, and Steve is there. What more could we ask for?

A major theme of the trailer is how the kids from Stranger Things are no longer kids. They are...teens! Finally, a platform for ANGST! And even the characters of the show are aware of their new hormones, as they talk about how they're too old to sit in a basement and play games all day (try telling that to my boyfriend). And in case you still didn't get the theme, the trailer is dubbed with The Who's "Baba O'Riley" aka "Teenage Wasteland." Rock on.

Naturally, people are losing it over this trailer. The teenage wasteland is the new upside-down.

The retro vibes did not go unnoticed.

We're all here for Steve.

Everyone is stanning the new friendship between Eleven and Max.

The third season doesn't air until July 4th, which feels rude, but our bodies will be ready.

Looking forward to binging this entire season in one sitting and then having nightmares for years to come!

Carrie Underwood shares gym selfie to send message about 'bouncing back' after second kid.

$

There is an absolutely ridiculous amount of pressure on new mothers to "get their bodies back" after giving birth. In fact, a large corner of the diet industry is catered towards women wanting to "lose the baby weight," and it's really bonkers when you think about it. A woman grows a HUMAN inside her, and then gets collectively bullied for not having time to do tons of cardio? That's a big nope.

This shaming of post-partum bodies is just another symptom of our culture's misogyny and deeply engrained policing of women's bodies. This game is rigged so that no women win, even the most privileged and conventionally attractive women are privy to this criticism and internalized shame.

To this very point, in January the much beloved singer Carrie Underwood gave birth to her second child, a baby boy named Jacob, and she's taken to Instagram to share some of her post-partum struggles.

Underwood opened up in a recent Instagram post about her difficulties feeling like her body is "hers" after the birth of her second child, and how she's trying to approach her post-partum body with love and gratitude rather than criticism.

She wrote about how she was hard on herself the first month after Jacob's birth:

"I’m going to be honest, “bouncing back” after having Jacob has been much more difficult than after I had Isaiah and I’ve been pretty hard on myself lately. I go into the gym and I can’t run as fast or as far. I can’t lift as much weight or do as many reps as I could a year ago. I just want to feel like myself again...for my body to feel the way that I know it can."

But then she hit a turning point and recognized how many amazing functions her body fulfills.

"As I was working out today, I realized that for the past 11(ish) months, my body has not belonged to me. It was a perfect home for Jacob. And even now it belongs to him every time he drinks his milk. As I prepare for red carpets and for life on tour, right now I make a promise to myself to start appreciating what my body CAN do and stop focusing on what it can’t."

Now she's resolved to treat her post-partum body with the gentleness and appreciation it deserves.

"I promise to stop analyzing every angle and every curve and every pound and every meal. I’m going to keep staying the path because it is a journey and as long as I’m always working towards my goals, one day I’ll reach them. I’m going to take it day by day, smile at the girl in the mirror, and work out because I love this body and all it has done and will continue to do!"

It's always refreshing to see women with huge platforms speaking truth to power about the internalized struggles millions of women go through.

This man went viral for trying to make ice cream sexy. Now, he explains himself.

Buckle up, things are about to get weird.

Remember this guy who went viral for being either the world's sexiest Cold Stone Creamery impersonator or some sort of milk magician?

Turns out the man in the video is Rob Huysinga, the 24-year-old co-founder of "Pan-n-Ice," an ice cream company in the United Kingdom. Honestly, their ice cream looks awesome, but that wasn't really the issue people had with the video. Huysinga did his best to celebrate women on International Women's Day by...dancing? Swiveling? Putting on a one-man reboot of "Dirty Dancing?" Is this the "Magic Mike" meets Ice cream combo that women everywhere didn't know they needed and are still on the fence about? Naturally, the internet was confused.

People were so perplexed by his ice cream performance that they did some pretty impressive digging into his past. Here he is again, adorably serving ice cream at a children's hospital. Aw, what a guy!

15.

16.

17.

Huysinga spoke to Buzzfeed news about his volunteer work and said, "Actions speak louder than words. It is all well and good having 'Be Kind' on the back of our T-shirts, however doing good makes a person and a business better than just saying good. For this reason, once a month we go to children's hospitals and the kids love it." I mean, we all know kids love ice cream, but do they love his dancing?

The reason for the dancing is apparently because Huysinga and his Pan-n-Ice crew is intentionally theatric as a way to separate themselves from the competition. I don't want to tell them that everyone at Coldstone sings when they get a tip, because dancing is more fun and less annoying? We'll never know. He elaborated on the business model by saying, "I initially started producing the videos of me hand crafting our ice rolls because I found that whenever I worked in any of our parlours, whenever I would be doing tricks and flicks, it would create a vibrant environment. Our company stands for theatre, whereby we don't just offer a conventional scoop of ice cream. For example, we often have saxophone players on the weekend and we even have a ball pit in our office." Ball pits? Sign me up.

Regarding the original video, Huysinga says he felt "misinterpreted and misconstrued. The eccentric manner upon which I make the ice cream, right through to the introduction; the whole thing has been completely blown up and taken out of context. I would like to sincerely apologize to anyone who may have been offended by the video." Look Rob, I don't think you need to apologize. It was definitely funny, confusing and weird, but offensive? Nope. Have you seen the things that have been going viral lately? Rich kids cheating their way into college is offensive, not a quirky ice cream man.

Keep going, Rob! You're doing great.

35 kids so accidentally mean their parents will need therapy.

One of the most universal love languages between parents and children is a good old roasting. Mom and dad may hold the keys to power, but children possess the ability to undo years of ego by imparting a few strategically placed words.

The most terrifying part of a child dissing their parents, is they do it so naturally, often these burns are posed as innocent questions or observations. There's something about a child's honesty, or worse yet, a teen's angst, that transcends all social inhibitions and cuts to the core of a parent's soul.

In honor of all the sharp-tongued kids out there slaying with words, I have gathered 35 tweets of kids roasting the hell out of their parents. Tread carefully, when giving birth to offspring, they may come back to bite you with insults.

Trump's ISIS map is the meme of the day.

In a show-and-tell outside the White House, President Donald Trump whipped out maps to tell the press that ISIS has been defeated. That would be awesome if true, but according to The New York Times, Trump is—wait for it—lying.

The Times reports that there continues to be fighting between the extremist group and American-backed Syrian forces, and it's unlikely that the war will wrap up by the end of the day.

It was difficult for the internet to focus on the particular lie when Trump gave such an obvious gift to meme-makers: the

LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH!

It's nice to dream.

Perhaps Trump is tracking which college basketball team he'll eventually get to feed room temperature burgers to.

17 people share the moment they knew they had their first crush. Hint: boobs.

Everyone has a memory of the moment they were attracted to someone for the first time. Whether it was the way someone smelled or laughed, a spicy scene in a movie, or an awkward moment in class--it's hard to forget our first crush.

For many millennials, it's one of the many scenes from "Titanic" that don't involve people dying and a ship sinking. That drawing! That car! The hand! Leo's hair flip! Ah, memories.

When a recent Reddit user asked straight people of Reddit when and how they realized they were attracted to the opposite sex, the internet truly delivered. Apparently not everyone lusted over "Titanic" and the only deleted scene from "The Notebook" DVD when Ryan Gosling slowly unbuttons every single button on Rachel McAdams' dress? Good to know!

1. Too real, "Juturna."

My sister had spice girls on VHS. I was very interested in that movie.

2. This is adorable, "i_only_eat_nachos."

Kindergarten.

Girl had her hair in a braid.

I noticed it looked a certain way, but I didn’t have the word to describe it. I asked my teacher to help me.

“Braid?” she asked.

“No,” I said.

We went through four or five more words. After each no, she’d ask me to explain more. Eventually she figured out the word.

“Oh,” she said, “you think it’s pretty.”

“Yeah,” I said, “she’s pretty.”

3. Oh no, "Byzio."

There used to be a website called whitehouse.com

It was NOT a site dedicated to the White House. It was porn. My friends and I quickly exited the window in shock, but I thought, "I liked that."

4. Shout out to the catalogue days, "S0N_OF_C0RHAL."

When I was ten and found an underwear magazine in the mail

5. 5th grade is tough, "PoeGhost."

One day in 5th grade I noticed a lot of the girls in my class had boobs.

6. Pretty sure this is everyone's, "joojoobee123."

The movie titanic, during that one drawing scene.

7. Ass is important, "Yossi25."

11 years old. I was sitting in the drive through at El Pollo Loco, and this girl walked by in 1990s spandex jean shorts.

And all I remember was ass.

8. Ha, "Iguesssowtfnot."

I was pretty young like 5 or 6 something like that, my parent put on Cartoon Network but didn’t notice when it’s runtime or whatever was over and the channel switched to showing movies, one of the movies had this nude scene in it, I don’t remember much of what it was about, I just remember there was a naked lady tied up to a chair, anyways, the moment I saw that lady’s boobs I was like...yep I gotta get my hands on a pair of those.

9. Classic, "jaseguitar."

Poison Ivy in Batman and Robin. Weird but it did something for me.

10. Wow this is poetic, "BradyDill."

It wasn’t a gradual realization for me. I was sitting, bored, in a sixth grade class, when I thought, “I wonder if I still think girls are gross,” followed immediately by, “I wonder if I am gay.” So I imagined myself kissing Mike, a hot piece of sixth-grade male ass on my right. No, that was disgusting.

Then I imagined myself kissing Clarissa, on my left. And this started the most intense and all-consuming crush I’ve ever had, or ever will have. It was fucking magical.

11. Amazing, "awallpapergirl."

When I was four I saw a photo of Fabio. What followed was an exchange that went something like this:

"Mom. Is that a man? (looking at his thighs) He looks like a tree."

"Yes. His name is Fabio."

"I like him a lot."

12. This is so cute, "Renmauzuo."

5th grade. This new girl transferred to our school from somewhere else, and we ended up sitting next to each other in computer class. We were playing some silly game and trying to help each other but, neither of us was doing great. Something happened in the game that was really silly and we both started laughing. Watching her smiling and laughing like that was the start of my first real crush, and that's when I knew I liked girls.

13. Yes, Fran, "JamMikeHunt666."

When I saw The Nanny on tv for the first time... Really did it for me. The Nanny named Fran!

14. Obviously, "Grumpus1988."

Princess Leia.

15. Oh my god, "ThasMyPlank."

Met this girl in primary, for my little mind she was perfect i guess. Well long story short i had a crush on her for 13 years and then i finally asked her out and now I'm married to her. Btw i met her when i was 5 and finally had the courage to ask her out when i was 18 and at this point she was on the other side of the country but we made it work.

16. Goth girls forever, "dusk27."

When I was 7 and Addams Family movie came out and I saw Christina Ricci. That’s when I knew I liked girls and gothic girls that have a possibility of killing me really attracted me. Same to this day

17. Everyone loves swagger, "awonderingeye."

Age 7. Saw a boy casually walking onto the soccer field and I was like "ok, I really like something about that swagger"

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez perfectly broke down America's gun problem in one tweet.

$

On Friday, March 15, a gunman entered a mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand and opened fire, killing 50 people and leaving 50 more injured. Now, less than a week later, the New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Arden banned all military-style semi-automatic weapons.

While no country should require massive terrorist tragedy in order to implement humane gun laws, Jacinda's swift problem solving presents a stark contrast to how the U.S. handles gun violence. In 2019 alone, there have been over 60 mass shootings in America. And yet, too many of our public servants are bought out by the NRA to actually protect the citizens of this country.

In a somber but pointed tweet, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called out how New Zealand's immediate action shines a light on America's core issue with gun violence: leaders who refuse to protect the people.

Her tweet immediately opened up a discussion between Americans, New Zealanders, and people across the world living under different gun laws.

As with any thread discussing guns, the discourse was heated on all sides of the table.

While it's clear there are plenty of Americans who, despite all of the lives lost, value the ability to easily buy a gun more than the implementation of safer laws, it's refreshing to have more leaders in office who are calling out the desperate need for reform.

Khloe Kardashian gets dragged for saying it's 'cute' that a fan can't afford her jeans.

You might be surprised to learn that Khloe Kardashian, whose "job" is being named Khloe Kardashian, is out-of-touch with the needs of people who work for their jeans.

Khloe flaunted her tone-deafness when she Instagrammed a T-shirt that said "love thy racist neighbor," when "thou shalt not tolerate thy racist neighbor lest you excuse their bigotry" is a better slogan.

Now KhloKhlo, or her social media intern, is under fire for calling her fan's need to work extra hours to afford a pair of Good American jeans "cute."

Kaelynn Abner, a woman who presumably wasn't born into vast wealth, tweeted about how she has to pick up extra shifts if she wants to buy a pair of Khloe Kardashian jeans, which sounds pretty Dickensian.

i want more GIF

Khloe, Jean Empress, thinks it's adorable!!!

Yeah...no.

It's one thing to think this is "cute," it's another to think that drawing attention to the exorbitant price of a pair of jeans is good PR.

Good American jeans retail for $178 at Bloomingdales, which is a lot of money for a non-Kardashian. Rather than call Kaelynn's quest to acquire them "cute," she should have just sent her the goddamn jeans.

As is the life cycle of tweets, Tone-Deaf Khloe became a meme.

Twitter is ready to get the guillotine.

Trump has begun greeting reporters with a creepy chant. Even Chrissy Teigen is worried.

$

A sure fire way to appear guilty for a crime (or any behavior) you've been accused of is to bring up your innocence at every turn. Obviously, if you are innocent, you're going to want to proclaim that in the proper settings. But if you're truly innocent, you don't need to lead with screams of "NOT IT" like a child attempting to cast blame on a sibling.

To this very end, recent footage of president Trump shows the commander-in-chief greeting reporters by simply repeating the words "no collusion, no collusion." This is, of course, before anyone can get a word in edgewise or even ask questions addressing the investigation surrounding the Russia collusion.

Needless to say, this footage is swiftly making the Twitter round, and even Chrissy Teigen has tuned into the latest alarming behavior by a man imbued with far too much power.

There are just so many jokes to make, jokes that serve as temporary balm while we try to stave off fear and despair about the status of our country.

Perhaps the worst part of this latest outburst is how par for the course this level of both unprofessional and suspicious behavior has become.

At this point, Trump can keep yelling whatever mantras he desires, it'll be Mueller who has the last word on his newest form of greeting.

Single man's list of 'requirements for a wife' goes viral. Must love deepthroating.

It's important to know what you want when you're looking for a partner. Far too many end up in romantic hot water because they haven't been able to parse their own needs and desires. But still, there's a pretty big difference between figuring out some crucial traits and interests you value in a partner, and concocting an impossibly specific and entitled list.

But let's be honest, the internet as a collective is not all that interested in reading the healthy and well-adjusted lists of traits people value in partners, we love to watch a train wreck in real time. The most entertaining relationship posts are by far the steaming hot messes exploding for the world to gawk at, and a recent viral post on the Choosing Beggars subreddit delivers an optimal level of mess.

In a true display of unearned male confidence, a single straight man who self-describes as "not your average joe" rattled off a list of highly sexual and deeply contradictory traits he desires in a future wife.

If you need to take a long, deep, near-death nap after reading this man's demands, you are far from alone.

People on Reddit immediately started roasting him for every aspect of his post.

But truly, how could this man post these words on the internet and not expect to get ripped a new one?! Every fiber of my being wants this man to be kidding.

The cocktail of otherworldly entitlement and teenage level horniness is so potent it nearly leaps through the computer screen to give all of us alcohol poisoning.

The issue is, even if this man is truly all he cracks himself up to be, and women are tirelessly clamoring for his companionship, his description doesn't sound like any human woman that exists. Particularly when you pepper in the weird bit about playing with his cat during sex?!

Needless to say, I have a strong feeling this man will not find what he desires any time soon. However, the silver lining lies in just how much roasting fodder he gave the internet for free.

AOC rips into Fox News for mocking her 'Latina thing.'

When she's not making fun of school shooting survivors, Fox News host Laura Ingraham is stirring up hatred for anyone who isn't a Trump-programmed Stepford Wife, specifically Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Ingraham and her guest's latest gripe with the congresswoman is how she has the gall—nay, the AUDACITY—to pronounce her own name properly, a form of "showboating" if there ever was one.

She described the lawmaker as "the It Girl, and I mean girl in a very mature way," being sarcastic about her sarcasm.

Ingy's guest, conservative lawyer and second civil war advocate Joe DiGenova, used an exaggerated accent and mispronounced Ocasio-Cortez's name.

"She does the Latina thing where she does her, you know, 'Anastasio Ocasio-Cortez,'" he said, implying "the Latina thing" is bad.

AOC chose not to let the network get away with racism, and called The Ingraham Angle out for an angle that is insulting and dangerous.

AOC also pointed out that Ingraham's racism against people of color is also remarkably inconsistent.

Many conservative pundits are so inherently outraged by the existence of people of color, they first take it out on the ethnic last names.

Ocasio-Cortez (yes, that's her name) hypothesizes that Fox News likes to pick and choose which syllables to say as to inspire the maximum amount of "anxiety," and to Fox News, "anxiety" means racism.

Her name is Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, and there's a million things she hasn't done, but just you wait, just you wait.

Khloé Kardashian is pushing girls to survive on shakes. Jameela Jamil brutally shut her down.

Let's just say Khloé Kardashian isn't having the best moment in social media. After posting this tone-deaf insta-story to "love thy racist neighbor," people were pretty pissed.

C'mon, Khloé!

While it's a known fact that the Kardashians make a giant chunk of all their "self-made" millions from posting on social media for beauty brands, sponsored content isn't always the best look. When there are millions of impressionable young girls and women looking up to you, it's critically important to be honest. As an adult woman, I can intuit that Khloé's flat stomach is the result of a personal trainer, surgery, celebrity chefs and nutritionists and plenty of other methods besides an Instagram tea. However, she has a lot of pre-teens and teens that trust her, and that fan base isn't going to be so quick to rationalize the truth. Luckily, that's where our hero, Jameela Jamil steps in.

Now, keep in mind that one time Jamil called Kim Kardashian an "agent of the patriarchy" which is so staggeringly accurate it hurts. When Kim was pushing her followers to buy "appetite suppressant lollipops" which are just as ridiculous, damaging and clearly targeted toward underage girls as pink sparkly cigarettes, Jamil posted this:

Jamil has been honest about her past struggles with eating disorders and refuses to let other people suffer:

So, when Khloé posted this nasty spon-con for flat tummy meal replacement shakes, Jamil wasn't having it.

Appetite suppressing lollipops and meal replacement shakes are simply tools to develop and foster severe eating disorders. Telling women to not eat when they are hungry so that the Kardashians can have more money in their pockets? They should all be very ashamed.

In the words of Jamil, "you're a smart woman. Be smarter than this." Keep fighting the good fight, Jameela! We're all on your side.

14 pieces of 'common sense' that are actually fake news.

Just because you've heard it before, doesn't mean it's true.

A recent Reddit thread asked the internet to share what widely accepted "common sense" is actually wrong, and a lot of the phrases we've been hearing since childhood have been made up by the No Food in the Pool lobby.

When it comes to common sense, you have to use your common sense.

While Reddit might seem like a weird place to have myths debunked, I fact-checked these to make sure it's not even more fake news.

1. In case I go missing, listen to PKMNtrainerKing.

Do not, EVER, wait 24 hours before filing a missing persons report. If you have a reasonable suspicion that something happened to someone, call immediately!

2. Ouch, egalex.

"put ice on a burn" DO NOT DO THIS it can rip the skin. DO put the burn under cool water immediately.

3. drbusty knows from experience.

Ignore a bully and they'll leave you alone.

No, they just see a weak target.

4. The sun us always watching, Trollygag.

Common sense says sun isn't out and it is cool outside, you don't have to worry about sunburns.

Worst sunburn I ever got.

5. Take it easy, ah-dou.

The harder you brush the cleaner your teeth get. All you're gonna do is cause gum recession.

6. penatbater isn't ready for a long distance relationship.

"Distance makes the heart grow fonder"

Psychologists actually showed that it's the reverse, which is why [long distance relationships] are very hard.

"Out of sight, out of mind" is more accurate.

7. Nelik1 gets that being an asshole isn't all it's cracked up to be.

If you are stern with the person (retail worker, food worker, whatever) you will get what you want. We are more likely to bend over backwards to help you out if you are polite and kind, and not real likely to do it if you come in assuming your time is more important than ours, or that the world revolves around you.

8. murrdock19 should work on criminal justice reform.

A harsher punishment doesn't deter someone from committing a negative act. Common sense would tell you that if a drug dealer is aware of a law that would sentence them to life in prison for dealing drugs that they'll be less likely to deal drugs. However, research shows that people often don't consider the negative consequences prior to breaking the law.

9. Andromeda321 is tilted.

Astronomer here! In honor of the equinox today, the seasons are not caused because of our distance from the sun. (In fact we are slightly closer to the sun during northern hemisphere winter over summer!) Instead it is caused by the fact that the Earth is tilted on its axis, and we get more direct sunlight in summer over winter (aka like how the sun sets earlier in winter over summer).

There is actually a depressing video where some reporters went to graduation at Harvard and asked people what caused seasons. Most people didn’t know, citing the “closer to the sun” thing.

10. It's a conspiracy, AGMarasco.

You don't need to wait 30 minutes before going swimming after eating. This was just invented by public pools to stop people bringing food into the water.

11. darkstormchaser is ready to get stabbed.

If you’ve been stabbed or impaled by an object, for the love of god, leave it in.

While that object is in your body, it’s essentially plugging the leak. It could be puncturing a major vessel or organ. The second you remove it, that plug is gone, and you are going to bleed internally like crazy.

Just seek medical help.

12. Look away, NosDarkly.

Don't trust someone who won't look you in the eyes.

Having social anxiety doesn't make you a bad person and sociopaths have no problem staring you down.

13. cocoandrew with the hard truth.

“If you’re passionate about what you do, you won’t work a day in your life” WRONG, it’s still really hard work even though you enjoy it. And to make matters worse, you might work so hard to the point where you end up hating the thing you loved.

14. Speaking of fake news, EphemeralApricity...

"There are two sides to every issue."

No, sometimes there's "correct and based in fact" and "batshit nonsense someone got from YouTube."
