As the world enjoys our newfound freedom to leave our homes and the drama of the presidential election fades into memory, we all have the freedom to invent conspiracy theories about video games, pretend to drive invisible cars, and poke garlic up our noses.
This Week In Drama: Britney Not Free … Yet
Despite the best efforts of their many internet supporters and one passionate plea The reclusive pop star Britney Spears is not free from the singer herself … at least not yet.
This week, District Court judge Brenda Penny rejected an amendment to the Spears Conservatory in response to a motion from her attorney a few months ago. The court alleged that Britney was “substantially unable to manage its financial resources or to withstand fraud or undue influence”.
The drama is sure to heat up even more in the coming days, especially the firm responsible for Spears’ Conservatory has requested resignation, told the court: “In her testimony, the conservator alleged irreparable damage to her interests and in particular the conservator’s objection to the continuation of the voluntary conservatorship and her wish to end the conservatorship … The petitioner listened to the conservator and respected hers Will. ”

TikTok trend of the week: mothers
Mothers, are you wondering what your offspring really thinks of you, aside from the number one mommy mug you got for Mother’s Day? A new online trend can help you understand. With music from Eminem’s “My Mom” in the background, TikTokers have started telling the world about their mothers, whether they are Tucking razors into her topknot before a fight, crashing furry conventions, or symptoms of Münchhausen’s by Proxy. The trend includes sad and disturbing mothers, young mothers, rich mothers, and every kind of mom in between.
I’m not going to be doing a TikTok video or anything, but my mom’s hobby in the 80s was cheating on casinos; She used a rosary to count at the blackjack tables in Atlantic City.
This week in music: Olivia Rodrigo steals … and that’s OK
Everyone says 18-year-old pop star Olivia Rodrigo is a thief. First, twitterers pointed this out the similarities between the cover of Rodrigo’s new album Sour Prom and Hole’s groundbreaking Live Through This. Then music fans noticed the similarity of Rodrigo’s new song “Brutally“And Elvis Costello and the New Wave hit of the late 70s from Attractions”Pump it up. “
You’re not wrong either. “Brutal” lifts the iconic hook of “Pump it Up” note for note and contains self-hating Costello-style lyrics like “I’m not cool, and I’m not smart. I can’t even park in parallel ”, too.
But all pop music is stolen, and “Brutal” is a great song. Elvis himself thinks that way too. He even gave a message “Go and steal from me, child” tweet “That’s fine with me… that’s how rock and roll works. You take the shards of another thrill and make a brand new toy. That’s what I did. “Dude stole all of his style from Buddy Holly anyway.
TikTok Warning of the Week: Don’t put garlic up your nose
If you can hear my desperate sighs from anywhere, it’s because the folks on TikTok are poking garlic up their noses.
They say that sticking a clove up your nostril will relieve the congestion that comes from a summer cold and are happy to post videos of Snot pours from their skulls. It is very rough. Other TikToker, like @kindminds_smarthearts, are not sold. She tried it and reported: “I still can’t breathe and now it smells like garlic.”
Surprisingly, doctors say you shouldn’t stick garlic up your nose. It might make more mucus, but that’s because the garlic is irritating the lining, not because it is cleaning your nasal passages or whatever.
Both my mother when I was five and Dr. Anthony Del Signore, director of rhinology and endoscopic skull base surgery at Mount Sinai Union Square, New York, agreed, “We don’t normally recommend sticking anything up the nose because it is obvious that it will displace or become lodged in the nasal cavity,” said Del Signore today.
This Week In Video Games: Is Hideo Kojima Making A Silent Hill Game?
The internet gaming world is full of rumors that Hideo Kojima, the enigmatic creator of Metal Gear Solid, is working on a Silent Hill game.
The “clues” include an announced Silent Hill game that Kojima actually worked on with Guillermo del Toro in 2014, as well as a teaser for a horror game called leaving from obscure developer Blue Box Games. The theory is that Blue Box is a fake company and Abandoned is actually a Silent Hill game controlled by Kojima. As players started speculating Blue box fed the flames and wrote “Guess the name: Abandoned = (first letter S, last letter L). Closing reveal … # PS5 #Exclusive. ”And then delete the tweet.
Like most internet conspiracy theories, this one probably isn’t true – Blue Box rejected the tweet and denied being a Kojima front-line company, and the rest of the “evidence” is shaky at best – but nonetheless, it’s one of those stories that is true should be, and maybe we can make them come true if we all wish strongly enough.

Viral Video of the Week: The Invisible Car
TikTok users @lightskinyogi can drive one invisible car and the weirdly hairless online swami posted video after video of the trick, garnering millions of views and cutting heads.
Commentators, suspecting tricks as opposed to supernatural yogic power, challenged the guy with requests like: “do it with rear view” and put a light over you so I can see if there are shadows“And” do it with a someone is behind you. “
So far this mysterious guy is up to any challenge so I can only conclude that he and other TikTok users of the hashtag #Pzoom, actually possess supernatural abilities that go beyond the limits of science, and they use their power over physics, matter and energy to make internet viral videos.
