Choose Carefully, Mr. President

The scandalous withdrawal of VA secretary nominee Adm. Ronny Jackson on Thursday was just the latest episode in a long stretch of chaos at the Department of Veterans Affairs. If President Trump wants to end the turmoil at the VA and allow the department to confront its critical problems, he will need to make a careful choice in his next nominee. The VA deserves a competent and experienced leader, with the policy background and management ability to steer it through these troubled times.

'Smell of gas' causes library evacuation, turns out to be pungent durian

Durian, the pungent (and highly polarising) fruit has often caused people to dry-retch when its odour hits their nostrils, but over the weekend, the fruit caused an entire police-assisted evacuation.

In Australia, approximately 500 students and teachers were evacuated from Melbourne's RMIT university on Saturday, after a "smell of gas" was reported within the library. Turns out, it was just a rotten durian fruit.

According to a statement from Melbourne's Metropolitan Fire Brigade, firefighting crews were called to the campus just after 3 p.m., and an evacuation was managed by Victoria Police as a precaution while "an investigation was launched into the source of the smell." Read more...

"Watching a wife and mother be humiliated on national television for her looks is deplorable," MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski wrote on Twitter.  Read more...

Vegan mansplainer scolds, doxxes woman after she buys ice cream for a crying kid

Only in 2018.

It all started on Saturday when a very nice young woman did a very nice thing. She found a little girl crying outside her house and offered to help by fixing the sad situation she was in: Not having enough money to get ice cream from an ice cream truck.

Like any reasonable person with a little cash on hand, the nice young woman gave the little girl some money so she could enjoy some ice cream with her friends.

SEE ALSO: Delightful water-filled glove is the internet's best son

The nice young woman, named Zara (Itsallzara on Twitter and her website), describes herself as a "22 year old Vegan blogger." That's an important detail, as you'll soon learn. She recounted her story in a tweet only to fall victim to the horrible, horrible reality that is social media: shitty men that feel the need to explain why that nice and reasonable thing you did is insanely wrong.
