I'm 30.
#one minute ago#damn I really REALLY thought I'd have my life more together#I mean to be real I 10000% did not expect to live until 30 good grief#but in my day dreams of 'what I might have been like if I lived to be an adult' this was not it#not still living like an emancipated minor in a 1 1/2 that's not even official it's more of a charity by the people who own the garage#that it's built in#not remembering to eat every day and eating the same 'gotta eat something' random assortment of whatever is in the cabinets#that I've been eating since I was 4#still working 4 jobs and not having my phd yet#literally never gone on one date and still feel too young for a relationship because I don't ever EVER want to be that guy#who doesn't know how to do anything and expects their partner to take care of them#I can barely do laundry and I straight up refuse to do dishes#I buy paper plates and cups#I'm not going to impose that on anyone#I keep thinking when I grow up I can have a relationship but I'm not old enough yet#but buddy I'm a freaking grown up now#30 is no joke#it's official#I just suck.#it's not about age its about being a garbage person#like i would never ever EXPECT my partner to take care of me but in practical terms I would fail at keeping the house clean#and they would pick up the slack becuase they don't want to live in a trash hole and would get mad and/or bitter with me for making them#living alone my bad choices only effect me#when i've lived with roommates in the past this has always been a key point of breakdown#even when I've tried to be extra dilligent I would forget a glass somewhere becuase I planned to reuse it and my roomate would wash it#and be mad that I felt entitled and expected them to clean up after me when I absolutly did NOT in fact I was horrified#that they needed to clean something up after me- I just simply lost track of it. and that was 10000% unfun for everyone involved#I was ashamed 100% of the time and they felt used 100% of the time and no one had a good time

Two Biden Priorities, Climate and Inequality, Meet on Black-Owned Farms Sedrick Rowe was a running back for Georgia’s Fort Valley State University when he stumbled on an unexpected oasis: an organic farm on the grounds of the historically Black school. He now grows organic peanuts on two tiny plots in southwest Georgia, one of few African-American farmers in a state that has lost more than 98 percent of its Black farmers over the past century. “It weighs on my mind,” he said of the history of discrimination, and violence, that drove so many of his predecessors from their farms. “Growing our own food feels like the first step in getting more African-American people back into farming.” Two of the Biden administration’s biggest priorities — addressing racial inequality and fighting climate change — are converging in the lives of farmers like Mr. Rowe. The administration has promised to make agriculture a cornerstone of its ambitious climate agenda, looking to farmers to take up farming methods that could keep planet-warming carbon dioxide locked in the soil and out of the atmosphere. At the same time, President Biden has pledged to tackle a legacy of discrimination that has driven generations of Black Americans from their farms, with steps to improve Black and other minority farmers’ access to land, loans and other assistance, including “climate smart” production. Farms run by African Americans make up less than 2 percent of all of the nation’s farms today, down from 14 percent in 1920, because of decades of racial violence and unfair lending and land ownership policies. Mr. Biden’s promises come on the heels of a year in which demands for racial justice have erupted across America, and a deadly pandemic has exposed stark disparities in health. Mr. Biden is also seeking to reverse former President Donald J. Trump’s unraveling of environmental regulations. Land trusts and other local groups, many in the South, have long sought to bring more Black Americans back to farming. Mr. Rowe acquired 30 acres of farmland outside Albany, Ga, after training at a land trust called New Communities, one of a handful around the country that have sought to help more African-American farmers make a living by cultivating the land. Many of those trusts have also put sustainability front and center of their work with local farmers, tapping into the legacy of Black scientists like George Washington Carver. His work on cover crops, which are planted to help nourish the soil, sought to reverse the damage wrought by single-crop cotton farming in the South, carried out on the backs of enslaved people. In between planting and harvesting, Mr. Rowe is pursuing a Ph.D. in soil health, researching ways to retain nutrients, cut down on pesticides and sequester more carbon in the soil. “There’s so much knowledge out there, both what’s been modified from our African forbearers and what’s been created in the South,” said M. Jahi Chappell, who heads the Southeastern African-American Farmers Organic Network, a group of Black farmers engaging in ecologically-sustainable agriculture. But for a long time, he said, “The voices of African-American farmers haven’t really been heard.” It is a troubled history to overcome. For a brief time after Emancipation, free Black communities spread across the rural South, cultivating all manner of agricultural goods: pecans, peanuts, pork. By 1920, there were 925,000 Black farmers, a fourth of whom were able to secure their own land. The Jim Crow era brought a violent backlash from white landowners, and Black farmers and sharecroppers became the target of intimidation, bombings and other attacks. The discrimination and racist violence spurred many Black farmers to flee North, often to cities, as part of the Great Migration. Disparities in access to loans and aid, and well-documented discrimination at the Department of Agriculture, also drove Black farmers from their land. Even as the Civil Rights era started to bring Black Americans equal rights under the law, the rural exodus accelerated as white citizens’ councils in the South, wary of a surge in Black voters, explicitly targeted Black farmers for expulsion from their communities. “We’ve waited year after year after year. We’ve fought for changes,” said Shirley Sherrod, a former Georgia state director for rural development at the Department of Agriculture and a co-founder of New Communities, the land trust. “Now this agency, and this country, really needs to figure out how to do the right thing by Black people.” Today, fewer than 35,000 Black farmers remain, according to the most recent Census of Agriculture. (And some experts say the number is even lower.) Land owned by Black farmers has fallen by an estimated 90 percent from the early-20th Century peak, according to the Land Loss and Reparations Project, even as white-owned acreage shrank just 2 percent. Black farmers who lost their landholdings lost more than the property itself; they also lost the ability to use it for things like collateral for loans to, for instance, send children to college. An initial estimate of the overall economic harm to Black Americans from the historical loss of rural landholdings, calculated by researchers including Thomas W. Mitchell, a professor of law at Texas A&M University, is $350 billion. “These are the economic consequences of this massive and precipitous land loss that was significantly the result of systemic racial discrimination,” he said. Efforts to remedy the loss so far have been small in comparison. Starting in the 1990s, a series of settlements has paid out about $2 billion, in total, to a handful of farmers who could prove direct discrimination. Black farmers continue to face discrimination. As recently as 2015, Black farmers obtained only about $11 million in microloans designed for small farmers in 2015, or less than 0.2 percent of the roughly $5.7 billion in loans administered or guaranteed by the Agriculture Department that year, according to researchers Nathan Rosenberg and Bryce Wilson Stucki. The most recent Census of Agriculture, from 2017, found that Black-operated farms tend to be disproportionately smaller, and just 7 percent of those farms had incomes of more than $50,000, compared with 25 percent of all farms. Efforts to address past injustices are gaining momentum. A Senate bill, sponsored by Democrats Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren and Kirsten Gillibrand, would permit Black farmers to reclaim as many as 160 acres apiece through federal land grants. The House Agriculture Committee is set to welcome its first Black chairman, Congressman David Scott of Georgia, who plans to invite Black farmers to give testimony on racial discrimination in federal aid. And this week, a flurry of executive actions on climate directed the agency to study ways to encourage “climate-smart” agricultural practices while creating new sources of income for rural Americans. Still, Tom Vilsack, who if confirmed will head the Department of Agriculture and return to a position he held under former President Barack Obama, has drawn criticism from some groups for his record on addressing discrimination at the agency. During his previous stint at the department, critics say, the agency promoted misleading data to depict a renaissance in Black farming, even as Black farmers continued to struggle to get federal assistance or attention for civil rights claims. “There’s a very systemic problem of civil rights at the U.S.D.A., and Tom Vilsack is not the one to take on the issue and fix it,” said Lawrence Lucas, a former official at the agency who heads the group Justice for Black Farmers. “He was there eight years and didn’t fix it. So what makes us think he will fix it now?” Late last month, Mr. Vilsack met with civil rights groups, committing to providing assistance and “a seat at the table” to Black farmers. And the Biden administration has appointed Jewel H. Bronaugh, Virginia commissioner of agriculture and consumer services, as Mr. Vilsack’s deputy. If confirmed, Dr. Bronaugh would be the first woman of color to serve as U.S.D.A. deputy secretary. In an interview, Matt Herrick, the agency’s top spokesman, acknowledged a legacy of discrimination in federal farming policy. “The reality is that there are inherent legacy barriers and practices that have prevented Black farmers, and other socially disadvantaged producers, from getting access to programs at the Department of Agriculture,” Mr. Herrick said. “We’re going to do everything we can — the secretary is committed to that — to removing those barriers.” Those concerns threaten to overshadow the Biden administration’s rollout of agriculture policies that put farmers at the forefront of the fight against climate change. One early idea from the Biden transition team is a federal soil “carbon bank” that would offer credits to farmers for carbon they sequester in the soil through sustainable farming methods. The plan would allocate $1 billion to purchase carbon credits from farmers at $20 per ton of carbon they trap in the soil. The Biden transition team claimed it could reduce annual emissions of greenhouse gases by 50 megatons, equivalent to the emissions from more than 10 million cars driven for a year. Scientists caution that uncertainties remain about the ability of farmers to sequester carbon in their soil. Still, such a policy could, in theory, benefit farmers like Mr. Rowe. Recent studies have shown that organic farming, in particular, may help hold carbon in the soil. For Mr. Rowe, organic farming practices on his modest 30 acres are also an economic imperative: His crop fetches several times the price of standard peanuts on the market. That helps him compete in a business landscape dominated by predominantly white farmers taking advantage of huge economics of scale and subsidies. “It’s a good start,” Mr. Rowe said of Mr. Biden’s plan. “You take care of your soil, the soil takes care of you.” Source link Orbem News #Biden #Blackowned #Climate #Farms #Inequality #Meet #priorities

Macron: ‘Islam is a religion that is in crisis all over the world today’
French President Emmanuel Macron announced a new law today created to combat “radical Islamism” in order to apparently “defend the republic and its values and ensure it respects its promises of equality and emancipation”.[1]
Macron no longer hiding his feelings about Islam. No longer radical Islam, now it’s just Islam that is the problem https://t.co/ljRK3LuNMM
— Bruno Maçães (@MacaesBruno) October 2, 2020
The long-awaited address began with Macron claiming Islam was “in crisis” all over the world.
“Islam is a religion that is in crisis all over the world today, we are not just seeing this in our country”[2]
His comments prompted a huge backlash from Muslims on social media, with French Academic Rim-Sarah Alaoune, tweeting:
“President Macron described Islam as ‘a religion that is in crisis all over the world today’. I don’t even know what to say. This remark is so dumb (sorry it is) that it does not need any further analysis … I won’t hide that I am concerned. No mention of white supremacy even though we are the country that exported the racist and white supremacist theory of the ‘great replacement’, used by the terrorist who committed the horrific massacre in #Christchurch.”
Our chief editor, Dr Salman Butt, commented on the French President’s remarks about Islam:
“Emmanuel Macron, like others who profit from propping up the failed ideology that has caused so much turmoil in the world today, is understandably taking cheap shots at Islam. It is the only comprehensive way of life with a historical track record of creating civilisation from chaos similar to today’s, and it is genuinely a threat to his ill-gotten, temporal privileges. If he were wise he would learn from history and humble himself, lest he join the long list of forgotten losers as footnotes that got in the way of justice, truth and mercy for humanity.”
Shaykh Dr Haitham al-Haddad had a message for President Macron:
Before claiming that Islam is in crisis, he should look at his own values first. Before throwing stones he should look after his glass house. We don’t want to recall the millions of people his ideology in France exterminated in many countries. Maybe he can educate himself with “Calendrier des crimes de la France outre-mer” by author Jacques Morel.
France is still very much in the throes of its white supremacist ideology mascerading as “secularism”. Let us ask Macron how France still look at the black people. How does France view Africa? Ask him about the African countries that must deposit their national currency reserves in France at the central bank. Ask the enlightened civilized macron why a dozen African countries still pay billions of Euros as “Colonial Tax” to France each year.[3] What are these democratic values that he claims to want to protect while France is among the first countries to support dictators all over the world? Who supported Gaddafi of Libya, who is supporting the current Haftar of Libya, who is supporting Hezbollah of Lebanon and meeting secretly with them and others?
Before claiming to fix Islam, fix your civilization and protect your people. Are you aware that your county has the second-highest rates for suicides in Western Europe?[4] France had an overall suicide rate of 12.1 per 100,000 people in 2016. It is also a fact that Europe in general leads the world in suicides.
Despite all the attacks against Islam, it is still the fastest growing way of life in the world. Humanity is fed up with the failed and hypocritical ideology propping up your “civilization”, “technology” and “enlightenment” and want to embrace a way of life that provides them with authentic, non-hypocritical values. They want to adopt a way of life that is not racist and does not take advantage of people and require structural and ongoing oppression just to stay afloat. That way of life is called Islam.
Do not worry Mr Macron, your people are not all like you, they are indeed turning to Islam. The rate of conversion to Islam in France is on the rise. Sooner rather than later, your children or perhaps even you might become Muslim because Islam wins even its enemies. It is better to work with Muslims to fix the problems of your so-called “civilization” before it is destroyed by your values.
Editor of British Muslim news site 5Pillars, Roshan Salih, and spokesperson for the MCB, Miqdaad Versi, also tweeted their response, with many calling the President’s words a blatant attempt to divert attention away from France’s coronavirus second wave crisis.[5]
Just listened to speech by #EmmanuelMacron which could have come out of lips of Boris Johnson or any right wing leader. Political Islam is bad, Islamic separatists are trying to undermine secular values. And then he mentionned French colonialism as if it was thing of the past!
— Roshan M Salih (@RmSalih) October 2, 2020
The willingness to use Islam & minority Muslim communities to rally supporters by promoting a divisive culture war against minorities, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, shows more about those who promote such divisiveness than anyone else… https://t.co/qJxShTIleJ
— Miqdaad Versi (@miqdaad) October 2, 2020
The repression of Muslims has been a threat, now it is a promise. In a one hour speech #Macron burried #laïcité, emboldened the far right, anti-Muslim leftists and threatened the lives of Muslim students by calling for drastic limits on home schooling despite a global pandemic.
— Yasser Louati (@yasserlouati) October 2, 2020
The new measures are aimed towards “liberating French Islam from foreign influences” will see local officials be given extra-legal powers to combat “extremism”.
He added:
“Our challenge is to fight against those who go off the rails in the name of religion … while protecting those who believe in Islam and are full citizens of the republic.”
His speech today represented a broad outline of future measures, with a more thorough plan expected to be drawn up in the next two weeks in preparation for a bill to strengthen a 1905 law which will be presented in December of this year.
Some of the measures include placing mosques under greater control and will put a gradual end of the long-established practice of bringing Imams from other Middle Eastern countries – especially during the month of Ramadan – instead ensuring any Imam arriving from abroad receives training in France before gaining their certification.
It will also require children from the age of 3 to attend French schools, a place Macron said was “the heart of secularism where children become citizens”[6] and that “secularism is the cement of a united France.”
In addition, Macron said outward displays of “religious” affiliation would be banned in schools and the public service. Wearing the hijab is already banned in French schools and for public servants at their workplace.
Meanwhile, Roshan Salih suggested a quicker and less violent solution to the problems Macron claimed to want to tackle:
#EmmanuelMacron needs to realise that once France stops intervening military in Muslim countries and starts treating Muslims as equal citizens then there’s a real possibility that communal relations in France will improve.

What insurance will accept me?
Here is what happen. I was invited into this car insurance agency. I was with them for the last 5 years.

The 3rd a chick clipped my car and no claims were paid because it was a he said she said. My car insurance now said that they were dropping me. I was tlaking to an agent and she was telling me it did not matter that 2 were not my fault because i was still in an accident. I was then telling her how I felt robbed and cheated by them. I then heard what sound like chewing in the back round. I said Are you eating She said what?

Car insurance problems?!?
So I've had my license since I was 18 and now I'm 21, my boyfriend has always just let me use vehicles that he would give me that are registered in his name and on his insurance and I already know someone is going to point out its a bad idea I don't have my own vehicle, we have been together 5 years and haven't had a problem, but recently when I was driving my truck, registered and insured by him, some senile old woman pulled out around 8 feet in front of me and stopped right in the middle of the road so her whole car was right in my lane and the back end of her car was still sort of on the road she was pulling out of, I slammed on my breaks and when I realized I wasn't stopping I turned my wheel as hard as I could so I didn't hit her and I ended up just catching the end of her car and totalled mine by hitting the stop sign and about 4 trees on the road she was coming out of because of the fact that I was driving my boyfriend's insured vehicle and me and him live together, his insurance automatically added me to his policy which caused it to sky rocket from $190/mo. to over $400/mo. I was wondering if he should try to switch companies, or just keep me on his insurance whether he switches or not ?""

How to deal with car accident with no insurance?
FYI: this falls under New Mexico laws I drove a small 2 door honda civic and was on my way to school. There was alot of traffic being it was around lunch time and i was approaching an intersection when this dodge durango came out of nowhere and tried to cross in front of me. (I had the green light) I tried to brake and swerve but my driver side front end hit her passenger front end. I didnt have insurance at the time of the accident and she came and said it was completely her fault and that she went because the other drivers were waving her to go ahead and go. She was 19 with no DL so ended up getting 2 tickets. I, on the other hand,didnt get any tickets and took an ambulance to the E.R. being i was having bad chest pain so my husband emptied the car because it was pretty much totalled.

Well, it’s been a few days since Donald Trump introduced a new word into the English language. This new word has been frequently used since Trump utilized it in a cryptic Twitter message. There are just a couple of problems with the word. Nobody knows what it means. Heck, we’re not even sure if it’s English. Let’s not forget the ongoing debate over the proper pronunciation. In case you are unfamiliar with this new buzzword, it is “covfefe”. Trump tweeted “Despite the constant negative press covfefe” in the early hours of May 30th and the internet has gone bananas trying to make sense of it. What did he mean? It has been speculated that it is a simple typo. Did he mean to type “coverage”? If so, he kind of leaves the Twitterverse hanging with such a sentence fragment. Maybe he just passed out face-first into his keyboard and pressed random letters with his nose as he slept. Hillary Clinton told a crowd that the word could have been a hidden message to the Russians. Trump finally deleted the tweet several hours later but the fire was lit. He poured a bit of gas on said fire when he later tweeted “Who can figure out the true meaning of ‘covfefe’???? Enjoy!” Naturally, such an event is bound to bring out some interesting comments. Here are the 15 most savage celeb responses to Trump’s #covfefe.
#1 Kal Penn Kal Penn is an actor known for his roles in the Harold and Kumar film series. He temporarily gave up his acting career to take a job within the Obama Administration. He left his post as an Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement a couple of times to resume his acting career. He was subsequently appointed to the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities. Penn was a staunch supporter of Bernie Sanders in the 2016 Democratic nomination and his backing of the Democrats is a given. It should go without saying that Penn took advantage of an opportunity to chime in on the “covfefe” flap. Penn tweeted “I like that we all quickly Googled covfefe just to make sure”. He is probably right. It has been one of the most popular trending searches in the past couple of days.
#2 James Corden The English comedian and host of The Late Night Show with James Corden has enjoyed a successful career in television, theater, and movies. Corden tends to stay relatively silent when it comes to his political views. This seems to make sense when we consider that he is from another country and doesn’t particularly want to offend anyone or divide his audience. Still, he is known to hold liberal views which occasionally shine through. Like many other late night hosts of the past and present, Corden doesn’t shy away from taking his digs at the president. After all, the current president is like the golden goose to comedians. Corden seems to think that covfefe is a state of mind. A mood. In a cryptic tweet of his own, Corden made use of the new buzzword by saying “I’m gonna try to go back to sleep now. Everyone stay covfefe.”
#3 Colton Haynes Those who are familiar with this actor, singer, and model likely discovered him through his part in the television series Teen Wolf or for his role in Arrow. Either way, Colton’s star appears to be on the rise. It’s alright for Haynes to cast a few stones as he has had plenty hurled at him. As a gay male, it also makes a bit of sense that he would cast a few stones Donald Trump’s way if the right opportunity presented itself. Well, enter covfefe-gate and the 28-year-old Twitter user just couldn’t resist posting his thoughts. He wrote “Covfefe…sashay away” indicating that Covfefe actually sounds like the name of a contestant that would appear on RuPaul’s Drag Race. Colton’s inference has as much credibility as any other theory at this stage.
#4 Billy Eichner Eichner is a 38-year-old writer, actor, and comedian that has been in American Horror Story, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Parks and Recreation. He has also been hosting his own show Billy on the Streets which garnered a nomination for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Game Show Host. The guy is seriously funny. While Billy does occasionally delve into politics on his show, he does it in a far more subtle way than some of his contemporaries. The thing is that when it comes to Donald Trump, one really doesn’t need to have a political leaning in order to get a laugh at his expense. Billy seems to think that covfefe could possibly be a verb after he responded to Trump’s tweet with “When they go low, we covfefe”. Everyone covfefe!!
#5 Zachary Levi Zachary Levi is yet another actor with a sharp sense of humor. He has also entered the music world with his voice being heard in a few popular songs. He won the Best Action Actor at the Teen Choice Awards and was ranked by Buddy TV as one of “TV’s Sexiest Men of 2011”. Zachary, unlike many on this list, isn’t very vocal when it comes to American politics but, like everyone on this list, he won’t pass up the chance to pile on the heap. Zachary actually defined covfefe when he tweeted, “Covfefe: to covet another’s fefe”. That is quite helpful but it still leaves the majority of us wondering what a “fefe” is? Is it anything like “Thou shalt not covet another man’s wife”? That sort of makes sense in the context in which Trump used it. Does it not?
#6 Zach Braff It has been said that there are a few people in The Don’s inner circle that know exactly what “covfefe’ means. Still, that leaves everyone else in the dark. It also might mean that Zach Braff is in Donald Trump’s close circle. Braff, who is perhaps best remembered for his role as J.D. in the television comedy Scrubs took to Twitter with his own response to Trump’s tweet. The known Democrat supporter commented, “Not only is covfefe a word, it’s the greatest word ever uttered.” Does he really know something that the rest of us don’t? Has a known Democrat infiltrated Donald Trump’s inner circle? There aren’t too many other explanations. Maybe Bill Nye offered Zach some insight into the matter when Braff appeared in an episode of Bill Nye Saves the World recently.
#7 Jimmy Kimmel Jimmy Kimmel has been making people laugh even before he started in show business back in 1989. The 49-year-old host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! has appeared in a few films and some television shows throughout his rise to stardom. He has generally kept his personal political views out of his arena but he strayed from that pattern recently when he delivered a heart-wrenching plea to politicians of all stripes during his opening monolog. He urged politicians to work together on health-care reform. Kimmel’s own son was born with heart problems so the matter touches close to home for Kimmel. He also took the time to respond to Trump’s tweet by saying, “what makes me saddest is that I know I’ll never write anything funnier than covfefe”. We’ve got faith in you Jimmy!!
#8 Marina Diamandis This beautiful and talented Welsh singer hit the pop charts in 2010 with the song “Hollywood” from her debut album The Family Jewels. She has since kept in the public eye with follow-up albums Electra Heart and Froot which have also landed in the top-ten and yielded hit singles. Diamandis is considered somewhat of an icon in the gay community. She headlined at NYC Pride following the tragic Pulse nightclub shooting. Is there is a possibility that Marina is a left-leaning member of the secret Trump inner circle? One helpful clue comes from her Twitter response to Trump’s mystery tweet. “How is Covfefe pronounced though?” the songstress asks. What? While the pronunciation is certainly an issue, the larger issue lies with the word’s definition. Maybe she’s in cahoots with Zach Braff?
#9 Matt Shively Matt Shively has played in several minor movie roles as well as a couple bigger parts such as playing one of the leads in Paranormal Activity 4. The 26-year-old has also had a recurring role in the television show Jessie and Resident Advisors. Shively’s response to Trump’s tweet was very well-timed and actually gets a shot in at another recent newsmaker. Kathy Griffin was recently fired from CNN for posting a video in which she was holding a bloody fake severed head that looked an awful lot like Donald Trump’s head. Matt took to Twitter after Trump’s tweet and asked, “Has no one thought that maybe Kathy Griffin ACTUALLY cut off Donald Trump’s head mid-tweet?” Excellent question Matt. Donald’s neck is about big enough to reach all those letters on the keyboard.
#10 Ariel Winter This pretty 19-year-old rising star has been doing movies and television since she was about 7 years old. She was showing her budding talent in commercials by the age of four and she has done a lot of character voices too. She claims to have had a physically and mentally abusive upbringing and she was officially emancipated in 2015. In an age that sees many actresses enhance their image by getting breast enlargements, Ariel went the other way and had hers surgically reduced 2 years ago. One way in which she seems to have gone with the mainstream is on her Twitter page. She got her dig at Donald Trump in by responding to his tweet with a simple, yet well-thought-out “Make America #covfefe again” referring to one of Trump’s famous campaign slogans. Zing!
#11 Jerry O’Connell He’s only 43 but Jerry O’Connell has been a fixture on the big screen and in television for 30 years. He got his start at the age of 12 as Vern Tessio in Stephen King’s Stand by Me. He has gone on to act in countless television roles as well as popular movies like Jerry Maguire, Scream 2, and a few Justice League films. He is married to the beautiful Rebecca Romijn and has two children. In between his acting gigs, Jerry likes to find the time to stay active on Twitter. Needless to say, the Trump tweet got Jerry’s attention and he showed off his funny side with a few responses. He begins with “Just dropped kids off at school and greeted every parent with ‘covfefe”. He then tweeted “Don’t even care if everyone knows… Just changed all my passwords to #covfefe”.
#12 Lisa Rinna Lisa Rinna is known for her several roles in television and film. She got her first big role as Jason Bateman’s girlfriend in the television series The Hogan Family before landing a gig on Days of Our Lives. She’s posed for Playboy and recently became one of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She’s been seen almost everywhere including the plastic surgeon’s office. She also manages to maintain a presence on Twitter. Judging by her page, Lisa likes to share her life on a daily basis so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to learn that she got her two cents in with respect to the whole covfefe kerfuffle. In her hilarious meme, Lisa is seated at a table engaged in a conversation over a glass of wine when she asks her friend, “Were people doing covfefe in your bathroom?” This gives us a whole new meaning to the word.
#13 Christie Brinkley Many of us know her as the gorgeous blonde in the red Ferrari that teased Clark Griswold in the 1983 film National Lampoon’s Vacation. Of course, she was already a star by then through her very successful modelling career which saw her grace over 500 magazine covers like Cosmopolitan, Glamour, and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Brinkley is a huge supporter of the Democratic Party and has donated a boatload of cash. She is also quite concerned about global warming as we can see by checking out her Twitter page. She chose to get a little more serious than others on this list when she responded to the Trump tweet with “Covfefe: French word for the overheated convection oven effect on Earth (that)Trump is creating by pulling out of the Paris Climate agreement”. This is definitely one of the 15 most savage celebrity responses to Trump’s #Covfefe.
#14 Diana Falzone Diana Falzone is a charming and stunning brunette reporter for FoxNews. At least she was with FoxNews. As of May 2017, she was suspended from duty and told to find another job after she filed a lawsuit against the company for gender and disability discrimination. Ouch. Her lawyers claim that the brass at Fox considered her less sexually appealing and less desirable after she wrote an article on the Fox News website that stated she was infertile due to a medical condition. One of the Fox News Co-Presidents, who was named in the suit, resigned in the wake of the filing. She seems to have kept a sense of humor throughout this stressful period as she took to Twitter to post “The best part of waking up is covfefe in your cup. I apologize in advance.” No need to apologize Diana.
#15 Violette Shumberg We’re not exactly sure if Twitter user Violette Shumberg is a Hollywood celebrity but she is a bit of a celebrity on Twitter now. Violet Shumberg was simply an Agnes Moorehead character from the 1942 movie The Big Street. The Twitter page shows that it is operated by @lisaloopners. Lisa Loopner was a character played by Gilda Radner back when Saturday Night Live was funny. Her response to Donald Trump’s tweet makes reference to an old Hollywood film. In the Bette Davis movie Now, Voyager, Davis’ character says the line “Oh, Jerry, don’t let’s ask for the moon! We have the stars.” Shumberg has cleverly attached a photo that depicts that scene with the caption “Oh, Jerry, don’t let’s ask for the moon. We have Covfefe.” Who is Violette Shumberg?
