  • Regé-Jean Page Is Not Returning for Season 2 of ‘Bridgerton’ and I’m Not Okay

    Regé-Jean Page Is Not Returning for Season 2 of ‘Bridgerton’ and I’m Not Okay

    Seriously?! What? Why? PLLLLLEASE tell me this is a delayed April Fool’s Joke…

    News just broke that Regé-Jean Page Aka The Duke of Hastings is NOT Returning for Season 2 of Bridgerton.

    While season 2 shifts its focus to the eldest Bridgerton as Anthony begins his quest to find love, Regé-Jean Page’s departure is shocking because he is still apart of the story.

    Now, you might be wondering why and well, it’s a bit of a lengthy explanation which you can read here.

    But to sum it up, it’s because the series is based off the book series and The Duke of Hastings is really only in the first book.

    The news broke when the announcement was made via Twitter from the Ton’s gossip maven. The message reads:

    “While all eyes turn to Lord Anthony Bridgerton’s quest to find a Viscountess, we bid adieu to Rege-Jean Page, who so triumphantly played the Duke of Hastings. We’ll miss Simon’s presence onscreen, but he will always be a part of the Bridgerton family,” the message reads.

    “Daphne will remain a devoted wife and sister, helping her brother navigate the upcoming social season and what it has to offer — more intrigue and romance than my readers may be able to bear.”

    I mean, what are we going to do without this eye candy?

    I am pretty sure I will just boycott the show until he is back…

    Maybe…

    Well, I am seriously considering it.

    Everyone loved him and his character so much. I just have to hope they will make some sort of spin-off series with him and Daphne. I mean, I know we’d all watch it, right?

    I am so sad. I need a minute to take this terrible news in…

    This Post Cereal Class Action Lawsuit Will Give You Money Straight To Your PayPal Account

    What is better than free money? I don’t think there really is.

    Now, you might be wondering what the catch is, and honestly, there really isn’t one.

    If you happen to be one of the millions of households that eat Post Cereal or have in the last 9 years, you can get some money y’all!

    The best part is, you do not need any receipts or proof of purchase. Cha-Ching!

    So, why are they doing this? Well, Post is involved with a Class Action Lawsuit for claiming their cereals are “healthy” when they actually aren’t.

    In fact, they are more like “sugar bombs”. YIKES!

    How to Get Your Free Money

    All you need to do is head over to the Post Class Action Lawsuit Website here.

    Click the green button that says “Submit A Claim”.

    Complete the form with your information and then on the next page, choose which cereals you bought and about how many.

    Dang! I didn’t realize how many of these we bought thinking they were good for us. Ugh!!

    Now you can claim a max of 4 boxes of each kind without showing any sort of proof of purchase.

    Once you get to the next page, submit your PayPal, Venmo or debit card information and the money will be direct deposited to that account once your claim is approved!

    So, how much can you expect? Well, the max amount per person is $14.28 without receipts but hey, that’s like 2 Starbucks drinks right there so I’ll take it!

  • TikTok’s ‘Blackout Challenge’ Is Once Again Putting Kids In The Hospital. Here’s What Parents Need to Know.

    TikTok’s ‘Blackout Challenge’ Is Once Again Putting Kids In The Hospital. Here’s What Parents Need to Know.

    Sigh – I thought we were over this. Seriously, please make it stop!

    This is one of the scariest and most upsetting things I’ve ever read…

    Yet again, there is another stupid and horrible TikTok challenge going around and this one is mega dangerous and scary.

    The TikTok Challenge is called ‘Blackout Challenge’ or ‘Pass Out Challenge’ and it encourages kids to self-asphyxiate.

    Now, this was going around last year but it has resurfaced and is making rounds once again.

    Yes, this is real and yes this is just completely awful.

    While this challenge started going around about a year ago, it is still happening right now.

    https://www.tiktok.com/@ncggat/video/6920409952595102978?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowuGKuf5yNDF2%2Bt2UltSe%2FkExAYpEfi6Dc9z5tleucpCINv9l8ffAyyEpqZkk%2BkRSLGgA%3D&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAACLcCzuzgWkaKPjILHjIZw7PSiEQ4JrM_1GLMYVacvtE19GUPV9HpZrUhPYMWApSl&share_item_id=6920409952595102978&share_link_id=A4ABA9FB-83B2-43B3-A3BF-88D25FD8E399&timestamp=1611296803&tt_from=copy&u_code=db2e1mfhe9751l&user_id=6796022742275163142&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=copy&source=h5_m

    On Jan. 21, 2021, Doctors in Italy have declared a 10-year-old girl brain dead after she tied a belt around her neck to self-asphyxiate as part of this challenge.

    And more recently, as in March 2021, another young boy has ended up in the hospital because of it. A family friend shared to The Denver Channel, “I can’t even describe the grief and the devastation. Nobody could ever imagine this would happen to a 12-year-old.”

    My heart just breaks for these families. I can’t even imagine especially since I have a 10-year-old son. I just can’t imagine!!

    Kids are doing this so they “pass out” but the prolonged lack of oxygen to their brain is causing all sorts of damage.

    In fact, doctors are warning and want parents to know that doing this is incredibly dangerous and can lead to seizures, brain damage, and death.

    The good news is, TikTok seems to be taking down the videos but it isn’t enough.

    Parents, we have to talk to our kids and express how stupid and dangerous this is. And how dangerous any of these challenges are.

    We have to protect our babies. My heart hurts right now and I hope no other child gets hurt from this challenge.

  • Looks Like Joe Exotic Is Back On The Market Because He and His Husband Dillon Passage Are Divorcing

    Looks Like Joe Exotic Is Back On The Market Because He and His Husband Dillon Passage Are Divorcing

    Remember Joe Exotic? Well, he is just about to be single and ready to mingle.

    Instagram

    It seems like it’s been a bit since we’ve heard from this bleach blonde tiger dude that is currently in prison for hiring a hit man to murder Carole Baskin.

    But now, he is making headlines once again because word is, Joe Exotic and his husband Dillon Passage are divorcing.

    Tiger King

    The announcement came via Dillon when he posted on Instagram saying:

    “To answer the main question the public wants to know, yes, Joe and I are seeking a divorce. This wasn’t an easy decision to make but Joe and I both understand that this situation isn’t fair to either of us. It’s something that neither of us were expecting but we are going to take it day by day. We are on good terms still and I hope it can stay that way. I will continue to have Joe in my life and do my best to support him while he undergoes further legal battles to better his situation.”

    dillert_lclm

    I have to say, I always found their relationship weird. Like, Dillon just seems to take a lot of overly friendly pictures with women.

    In fact, as of right now, Dillon Passage no longer has any images of him and Joe on his Instagram even though he claims they are on good terms despite the divorce. Weird, right?

    Nonetheless, I hope they find happiness in the future because it doesn’t matter who you are, divorce sucks.

  • ‘Harry Potter’ Has Been Removed Off Of Every Single Streaming Service

    ‘Harry Potter’ Has Been Removed Off Of Every Single Streaming Service

    It is a sad day for sure especially for all potterheads.

    Warner Bros.

    If you were planning on rewatching the Harry Potter movies over the weekend, you will have to make a change of plans.

    Warner Bros.

    ‘Harry Potter’ Has Been Removed Off of Every Single Streaming Service and I am totally sad about it.

    I grew up reading the books and loved the movies and a few months back I had my kids watch the movies in order and they loved them.

    I am glad I did it before this happened because now if you want to watch them, you will have to either rent or buy the movies (if you don’t own them already).

    Why?

    Warner Bros.

    Well, the movies have been moved to cable networks like FX and Syfy.

    According to Screen Rant, NBCUniversal has the rights to the movies until the end of 2021 and they made the decision to move forward with removing the HP movies off streaming services.

    So, for now, just stick to rent or buying them from places such as Amazon.

  • PSA: Pregnancy Is NOT An April Fool’s Joke

    PSA: Pregnancy Is NOT An April Fool’s Joke

    April 1st also known as April Fool’s Day is almost here and it’s the day everyone unleashes their best and funniest pranks on their friends and family.

    While it’s a day of fun and laughter for many, for others, it’s a very sensitive and upsetting day.

    Why? Because some people actually think it’s funny to fake being pregnant but here’s a little PSA… it’s not.

    Let me say it louder for the people in the back…

    FAKING BEING PREGNANT IS NOT FUNNY.

    Not today on April Fool’s Day.

    Not ever.

    While you may think you are just faking out your significant other on a harmless joke, it’s far from harmless.

    In fact, for the millions of women who may see that fake pregnancy announcement via social media, it’s a hurtful reminder of a tragic event they have experienced in their life.

    There are 6 million women in the U.S. alone that struggle with fertility.

    stacey.skrysak

    It’s hurtful for women who try so hard to conceive but can’t.

    It’s hurtful for women who experienced pregnancy loss.

    It’s hurtful for families who have lost a child.

    It’s just not funny.

    ines_ctm

    As someone who struggled with every pregnancy I had and also miscarried in the 2nd trimester, I know what the pain of trying to conceive is and the pain of losing a pregnancy too.

    diary_ofafirsttimemummy

    April Fool’s Day can be fun and filled with laughter but you could also be the reason someone’s day is awful so please, just don’t.

    I promise you can live without a pregnancy “prank” and there are tons of other hilarious and fun pranks out there to try.

    So, please, I beg you, do not fake being pregnant to get a few minutes of laughter. But if you insist on doing it, please keep it to yourself and don’t post it for the world to see.

  • ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ Season 4 Trailer Makes It Look Like A Horror Movie

    ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ Season 4 Trailer Makes It Look Like A Horror Movie

    OMG I am so excited!! It seems like we’ve been waiting FOREVER!

    After Hulu made the announcement that Season 4 of The Handmaid’s Tale was being pushed back to 2021, I was really bummed and sad because I was so ready for a new season.

    (Photo by: Sophie Giraud/Hulu)

    Then they dropped the teaser trailer a few months back and now we finally have the official trailer!! Ahhhh!

    Courtesy of Hulu

    Now before you watch it, just a quick recap…

    When we were last in Gilead, June, the Marthas, and the handmaids had just gotten about 100 kids out of the country, and into Canada via airplane.

    Courtesy of Hulu

    June had been shot, and the handmaids had found her, and were carrying her to — somewhere. We don’t know exactly where they were taking her yet.

    It looks like both Fred and Serena have been arrested in Canada, they have us thinking Nick might be a bad guy — I’ll never believe it — and Commander Lawrence has stayed behind, to finish what he had started, and to face his fate.

    Courtesy of Hulu

    “These women deserve to be helped, but I can’t do this alone,” June says in the trailer for Season 4.

    Is the rebellion truly starting? I’m too excited. I’m on pins and needles — and we don’t have to wait too much longer to see what happens. GAH!!

    Courtesy of Hulu

    Seriously, this trailer makes it look like a total horror movie – which I mean, it sort of is but it looks crazy GOOD!
