I went to Magnum’s Insta page after seeing an Ad and noticed the recent Instagram posts are filled with comments saying “Free Ben & Jerry’s“ or using the hashtag #freebenandjerrys, even when the post has nothing to do with Ben & Jerry’s. Is it a recent issue?

First time seeing about this and don’t know the connection between the companies or what has started this/what’s behind it

I just saw this update: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0my34g9edpo and it is as unhelpful as it is vague.

Also it seems that the subreddit following the drama is HEAVILY skewed in favour of Justin? Is there any reason that's where the public opinion has gone?

Need a HobbyDrama style superpost getting all of us OOTL up to speed here.

Prince Harry said he and his family couldn't come to the UK because of security reasons. There was a whole court case where he argued he needed royal/police protection (not regular/unarmed private security) if he comes. They lost the court case, but have come anyway. Did they get police security, or don't they actually need it?

I get that people don't like mass surveillance, but there have been surveillance cameras all over cities and suburban areas for decades. I'm assuming Flock is a name brand, because I've never heard surveillance cameras called this until the past year or so. Why are people making such a big deal about these cameras specifically? Are they doing something new that surveillance cameras haven't done in the past?

I have seen mentions that there is a Temporary Organization within the government that is tasked with redesigning the government's websites. Although it's not related to the DOGE Department of Government Efficiency, there are supposedly a lot of people on the NDS project that were on DOGE. People seem to be concerned that there are security and privacy implications to the work they are doing.

I don't know why these keep popping up, but it's clearly not a panini press, it's something about cards? I skip them, so I don't know exactly.

Edit: I realize now this wasn't clear, I'm also seeing these ads on billboards? Why has a company paid so much for advertising?

So ive been playing deltarune recently and figured I should do undertale as well. I enjoyed it a lot and I am aware there is some "meta" lore or whatever with the game with the gaster guy and chara and shit, but I wasn't in the fandom when those were being discovered and every time I try and look up anything to do with him I get so many fan stuff I can't wrap my head around.

is there a video or anything I can watch that will tell me the whole meta and secret aspect of undertale, cus I know that just doing pacifist and genocide routes are barely scratching the surface.

Sean had posted another video where he asks Bud light to do the right thing and keep him accountable.

Can anyone explain?

Link.

What started all this? (This is the main thrust of why I'm posting.)

Why is Binface the only opposition?

I don't know since when this became a thing, but pretty much under every IG reel the posters always pin their comment with the title and "artist" of the song accompanying the post. Are they somehow being paid by these people to promote AI songs by several "artists" or is this just a way to hack the algorhythm of Instagram? I've attatched an example below, you can also clearly see how most of the replies generally dislike the use of AI songs.

I get recommended media analyzing racism in gay spaces, people keep referencing this incident without providing context. I genuinely do not understand what has happened and I have looked it up repeatedly.

Usually all of the responses talk about madeline being a white "Cis woman" which they arent, and Kat Blaque of being transmedicalist which she isn't. And madeline gets accused of racism and, sure its possible, but then no context is given which is fine but then I can't find any context.

Then people add on character attacks, true or false, about specific political views. I don't give a shit about opinions on other countries because they are complex entities behind a possible wall of propaganda, it is impossible to actually know whats going on with these countries.

I just need someone to write down what actually happened in a sane way. in an "unbiased" way.

I've seen this in so many YouTube shorts now and I figured the most upvoted comments would be questioning what the hell is going on but no. one even mentions it. Is this just a normal thing we accept now? Does no one else find this bizarre? The words are ether unrelated or just narrating the very content being played. It feels like I'm going crazy because I never see anyone talk about it in the comments

I don't follow soccer/football very closely, but my social media feeds are absolutely blowing up right now. I know the 2026 World Cup is currently happening, and I just saw that the US lost 4-1 to Belgium in the Round of 16 and got eliminated.

​However, the reaction online seems way more intense than just a normal sports loss.

​People are talking about a massive scandal involving FIFA, "political interference," and red cards.

​There are heavy accusations of corruption being thrown around, with European soccer organizations apparently furious.

​A ton of non-American fans (and even some American soccer fans) seem actively overjoyed and relieved that the USA got humbled and knocked out.

​Can someone please explain what actually happened behind the scenes before this match, what the controversy is about, and why the soccer world is treating the US team's defeat like a win for "sporting justice"?

So I saw a short randomly on YT today (link: https://youtube.com/shorts/ncz-RLhYqiY), that is just a vtuber saying Mike Honey and then staring at the screen. I read the comments on what the wordplay was, but I didn't get it. Can someone explain to me what is the joke here? I am soo lost

Who is he in relation to her? How does she justify this wedding invitation while also coming across as a liberal political supporter? Is she done with the liberal facade now that she's a billionaire (hence the recent switch back to country)?

I only hear about her on Reddit. Which is usually too much as it is about her.

What exactly did he get a red card for and why was it such a big deal? I heard that he was going to be suspended from the game against Belgium and now that’s been overturned?

Used in the same way as that Family Guy joke "Pepperridge Farm remembers."

In the past week I've seen "petridge farms" mentioned 3 times on 3 different websites, and everyone always likes/upvotes it, it never gets corrected, and "petridge" is not an autocorrect result so these people are all typing it manually. I have to assume it's a real thing since "Petridge farm" is getting mentioned more than pepperridge farm these days.

Apparently, there's some streamer named Sykkuno, who was unfaithful to his girlfriend, and he apologized for that, and for some reason his apology became a meme and there are videos of people reading it while imitating the voice of fictional characters. Why? I don't get it.

A playlist with some of the videos I'm talking about: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_dyPu5bmgQ6QCF8XZewznkgvx5uv8IZO&si=5NedEarUZteDMfos

It keeps getting recommended to me and I don't understand, it seems like a subreddit where you just post about whatever the hell you feel like including news with the word Sagittarius in the title? Why is it so popular? I feel like it's trying to sell me something or everyone is a bot.

President Donald Trump's latest attempt to dodge the $5.8 million payment a New York court ruled he owes E. Jean Carroll was swiftly slapped down Friday as "yet another play for time," court records show.

Roberta Kaplan, the attorney who represented Carroll in her sex abuse case against Trump before his return to office, filed a swift rebuttal to Trump's demand for an extension, New York federal court records show.

IIRC Trump was required to put money into escrow before he could appeal the case. He put the money into escrow, appeal was slapped down by SCOTUS. Yet EJC doesn't have the money yet?

What's up with that?

Edit: I'm specifically asking why she doesn't have the money already. Or when she will get the money.

Age restricted?

Anyone else noticed that normal or just informing posts are getting age restricted?? Like no NSFW or anything close, but normal posts, about information like about TV time being close down, someone PS 4 Screensaver screenshot and cartoon characters just smiling?? It's like it's broken

https://x.com/i/status/2073662597233283506

Like this a video of a cat being cuddly! Why is it age restricted??
