Dear Justin Trudeau,

We get that you're in the middle of a crisis.

Handling how your entire nation responds to a pandemic—particularly when other countries are actively working against you—borders on impossible.


The world is proverbially on fire and sometimes it must feel like it's up to you to put it out. We know everyone is asking a lot from you right now but we need to ask just one more thing.

For your people's sake—nay, the sake of all people—please never talk about face masks again. You grossed us all out, JT—even yourself.

It's not that your speeches aren't clear, decisive and informative without being anxiety-inducing. We actually really love that you took the time during your Prime Minister's address to explain what face masks are for and how they might be helpful.

That kind of factual knowledge helps your citizens make informed decisions regardless of party affiliation. It's just ...

Did you have to say they prevent us from "speaking moistly" on each other? "Speaking moistly," sir?

Really‽‽

Moistly‽‽

You know that word is borderline illegal as far as the English-speaking world is concerned.

You knew it was gross as soon as you said it, too.

The people are not okay right now, Justin.

They're just not.




Having said all that, we have to admit that we might hate it but the phrase is accurate. There are people out there who are, most certainly, moist speakers, aren't there?

They walk among us indeed, Mr. Trudeau.

So. Much. Moisture.



We guess what we're trying to say is thank you for the information, but please never give us that mental image again because now we're never going to stop thinking about the amount of "moisture" flying out of people's mouths as they talk. We'll never be able to look at a crowded game or a concert or even our families the same way again.

Which, we guess means we'll be a lot more conscious about maintaining distance and washing up, huh? Hmm. Point taken.

Thanks, we hate it.

The rocker's outfit consisted of a red, white, and blue jacket emblazoned with two eagles facing each other above the American flag with the number 250, a nod to America's upcoming 250th anniversary, and white stars on his sleeves.

MAGA Senator Just Said The Quiet Part Out Loud With Epic Freudian Slip About Medicare

Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy was widely mocked following his inconvenient slip of the tongue during a CNBC interview as he mused about finding ways to "cut" Medicare before quickly correcting himself.

The exchange occurred after host Rebecca Quick pressed Louisiana Republican and former physician Bill Cassidy on how his party intended to fund the “trillion-dollar tax cuts” sought by President Donald Trump.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.

People Describe The Worst 'Bonus' They've Ever Gotten At Work

Most of us have worked at one problematic workplace, with reasons ranging from toxic coworkers to terrible bosses to unlivable pay. Sometimes, it feels like a joke that the employees are even being paid at all!

But the biggest joke of all might be the end-of-year bonus, or lack thereof. They're at times so laughable, they take the cake for horrible work conditions, or are quite literally, a slice of cake.
