Trevor Noah calls Antifa "vegan ISIS"
Trevor Noah opened The Daily Show last night with a segment on Antifa. During the segment, Trevor said, "It doesn't matter what your noble goal may be, it doesn't matter what you say you're fighting for. When people see that, all they think is 'Oh shit, it's vegan ISIS.' Because you don't realize — when you think you're punching Nazis, you don't realize you're also punching your cause." Trevor went on to say that Antifa's violence only helps to discredit the movement and what they stand for.

When Twitter user @deannanicoleh's dad boarded his Delta Airlines flight, he had no idea he'd be breathing the same air as one of the most famous people on the planet. Once he realized the whole plane was shook at the man sitting next to him, he messaged his daughter asking who he was. @deannanicoleh filled him in, fan-girling, and asking him to snap a photo with none other than Nicky J.
"A famous singer. I love him,"@deannanicoleh replied. "He was part of the Jonas Brothers." The Tweeter then shared her iMessage exchange with her father and the photos on Twitter, and the internet went wild over the interaction, retweeting the thrilling saga over 50 thousand times.

QT! ONTD: What's the most embarrassing thing your parents have ever done?
Libba Bray writes an essay in response to the all-female Lord of the Flies
Exclusive: ‘The Diviners’ author @LibbaBray has some thoughts on this all-female #LordOfTheFlies remake: https://t.co/3cCLgCMixWpic.twitter.com/zDM9Rjfk7O
— Entertainment Weekly (@EW) September 1, 2017
ICYMI a new all female version of Lord of the Flies to be written and directed by two white dudes was recently announced.
People did not take it well.
Many people (including many ONTDers) pointed to Libba Bray's Beauty Queens as an existing book that followed the same lines of Lord of the Flies and would make more sense to adapt rather than trying to gender flip Lord of the Flies. Bray wrote an op-ed for EW on her thoughts on the announcement.
Some highlights:
- Says when she saw the announcement for the all-female Lord of the Flies she rolled her eyes because she wrote a version and Hollywood was not interested
- Beauty Queens has been trying to be produced for years but most executives are male and don't "get" it and wanted adaptations that devolved into cat-fights and literal hair pulling
- Another one of her novels, A Great and Terrible Beauty, was pitched to Hollywood studios that repeatedly told her she needed to add more men or change her lead (female) character to a male character
- Points to recent successes like Wonder Woman, Girls Trip and Hidden Figures as women-centric movies that did well but will be written off as "flukes"
- Says the problem is too many male execs at the top who are afraid of giving any power at all to women

New ITV2 Reality show "Bromans" to premiere in September
The trailer for ITV2's Bromans is even better the description would have you believe... pic.twitter.com/VTwGdR0mZB
— Ryan James (@RyanJL) August 30, 2017
From the Press Release:
Eight 21st century lads are to be transported back to the Roman Empire to see if they can cut it as gladiators.The handsome boys will fight it out with help from their loving girlfriends. They may have the muscles but do these lads have what it takes to go down in history? Cameras will follow eight modern day couples as they're transported to an ancient world where they'll live and fight like gladiators did 2000 years ago.
Along the way there’ll be blood, sweat, tears and plenty of laughs. However, only the very best will make it through to the Emperor's Games where one of them will emerge victorious and take home the Emperor's gold (which today works out at ‘approximately' £10,000!).The boy’s girlfriends will join them on their journey, helping to train and prepare them for the Games as well as immersing themselves in ancient Roman tasks - from wine making to sculpting.
Modern geezers in the time of Caesar! 💪💪💪
