Lois Lane is joining Superman in the CW’s Arrowverse franchise

After years of hints in Supergirl, Lois Lane is finally joining the CW’s Arrowverse franchise. Lois Lane’s younger sister Lucy is already a recurring character in Supergirl, played by Jenna Dewan-Tatum. Thanks to the show’s focus on journalism, Lois has been mentioned several times in passing, usually discussed as a rival of Supergirl’s mentor Cat Grant. She’s a long-awaited addition to the cast, and she’ll arrive during the next Arrowverse crossover event between Supergirl, Arrow, and The Flash. Airing in December, this crossover will also introduce Ruby Rose as Batwoman. Tyler Hoechlin will return as Superman. The CW hasn’t announced the actress yet, but since Lois is older than Jenna Dewan-Tatum (37) and is already a seasoned reporter, she could be around 40 compared to Tyler Hoec...

Trump’s first-ever tweet about Africa as president is about white people

President Donald Trump made his first-ever tweet as president about Africa late Tuesday. It is about the white people being treated unfairly. I have asked Secretary of State @SecPompeo to closely study the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers. “South African Government is now seizing land from white farmers.” @TuckerCarlson @FoxNews — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 23, 2018 Trump’s order to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, on the words of cable news host Tucker Carlson, to investigate the seizing of farms from white people in South Africa was read online as an explicit overture to the president’s white nationalist supporters. From 1960-1983, 3,500,000 Non-White South Africans were removed from their homes and fo...

Bar blasted for offensive ‘Tuskegee Experiment’ cocktail

A Connecticut restaurant is reworking its cocktail menu following complaints from customers about a drink named “the Tuskegee Experiment.” Last Wednesday Eric Armour posted a picture of the specialty cocktail menu at the 323 Restaurant in Westport, Connecticut, with a particular drink called “the Tuskegee Experiment” circled in pink. “Umm. This is ridiculously horrible,” he wrote on Facebook. (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = 'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v3.1'; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); Umm.

Angela from ‘The Office’ calls out nephew after he used her photo on Tinder

Dating is cringe-worthy enough on its own, but for one user, it may have gotten even more so after his famous aunt called him out for using her photo on his Tinder profile. The Tinder profile of James looks fairly ordinary at first glance: It’s got the basics and a corny line. But it also gives some context to one photo featuring actress Angela Kinsey, who’s best known for playing Angela on The Office. For those who might recognize Kinsey in the photo, it’s not just a random celebrity photo—it’s a family photo because, according to James, Kinsey is his aunt. But it also serves the purpose of casually bragging that he’s related to Kinsey. But because nothing’s ever truly a secret online, a screengrab of James’ profile—or at least word of what his profile contained—made its way to Kins...
