    DUMB STUFF FRIDAYS: Satirical news outlet The Onion is trying to acquire Alex Jones’s site Infowars. Well, sorta. Who/what/where/why? We’ll explain!!!

His wife, Junelle, has responded to the backlash – we’re going to unpack her quotes. And then, you guys loved them, so we’re bringing them back: Lukewarm takes.

  • Margot Robbie and unmarked motherhood

    Margot Robbie and unmarked motherhood
    Apr 12 2026
    MONDAY ANALYSIS: This week, a Courier-Mail headline caught our eye: “Margot Robbie, stop pretending you’re not a mum.” What happens when women in the public eye become mothers – but don’t show their kids on camera? With the justified push to take kids off camera, are we creating a world where the actual experience of motherhood is hidden from view as well? Huge thanks to Pandora for making this episode of Shameless possible. Also, shout-out to Samsung!
