I for one am sick and tired of groypers appropriating prep. WASP culture is not your costume. If you’re not feeling vague anxiety about the *lack* of black people at the country club and what that says about you, take the boat shoes OFF
The 62 year old in the house tweet is Scott Bessent (he is openly gay and lives in Charleston). He and Elon supposedly got in a physical altercation about DOGE’s lack of savings.
Ngl I’ve been amused that those online rightwingers seem genuinely torn between mommy and daddy - I thought they have no hesitation to take the side of Daddy Trump lol
Trump is Daddy, but Elon doesn't really exude "Son energy." Okay he is often childish, but when you're the richest man in the world, and the "Father of" modern EVs, Reusable rockets, Starlink, and have 14 children . . . you don't seem like a "Son."
The owner of my favorite coffee shop (a true unicorn in the industry) is anti-seed oil. I'm just glad he is otherwise entirely apolitical and would rather burn his phone than engage with any social media discourse.
The coffee and food are RIDICULOUSLY good. It's not the ideal place for vegans, but I appreciate that he puts thought into what he sells even if I don't always agree with the science. Sometimes it's hard to predict who might benefit. (This is a defense of a free marketplace, not a loon like RFK.)
I actually cut out soybean oil and ricebran oil in my family's diet and our health just dramatically improved. Every time i go to trader joe's and get some of those great snacks that are full of ricebran oil, my skin, hair, mind and energy levels just turn into trash. I think there's something real there. Some folks take it too far that they say they avoid having any seeds at all including almonds, which is what makes all of these a meme. But there's definitely something not right about refined oils.
Im vegetarian so I stick to butter and ghee. The seed oil gang doesnt like duck fat for some reason. They dont like anything that's not beef tallow. I dont get it.
I can count on one hand the dresses that I think seem suitable for most summer weddings. A few are cute but would only work at more casual weddings. Most are, in my eyes, downright hideous.
Do you remember when the Target prairie dress* was all the rage? I thought to myself “on the bright side, we can only go up from here.” How wrong I was.
Summer wedding dress! What could they possibly have been thinking? Got a great deal on some brown fabric? (Isn't that the Moscow Mule origin story? Are there still Moscow Mules?)
Newport RI is famously the home of the oldest extant synagogue building. A colonial-era structure. Built a good century before any of DJT's antecedents set foot on this continent.
Living in Montana, one can get pretty used to seeing only white people for days on end. Don't tell anyone though, as this gets the wrong sort of people thinking about moving here.
Re KJP, there's a rabbithole to go down if you look into his and his wife's internet presence. I first encountered KJP long ago as the boyfriend of the woman running the website Classy Girls Wear Pearls. She's been posting this sort of extremely white New England preppy fashion content for well over a decade, long before he started the KJP brand. You might even have come across discussions of them on /r/blogsnark. I'm a little surprised it's taken this long for the creepy right-wing to appropriate their imagery.
That dress truly must be seen to be believed. And what the heck is with the shoes? Who thought that pink shoes and socks (!) go well with that dress?!? (The obvious rejoinder is "nothing goes well with that dress," which, legit, but could they at least have shown some hand-whittled wooden clogs instead)
I’ll fully accept it’s a stupid question, but as a non-native English speaker, I just don’t get what “CHH coded” means — in this particular case, how is a southern kind-of-über-plantation-mansion-like big house in any way supposed to be associated with (?) or approved by(?) CHH, and why would that even be relevant?

100%. There is nothing preppy WASPs love more than an equally preppy, sharply dressed black couple attending their events.
Channeling my ancestors and morphing into Bradley Whitford in get out
I also highly doubt they actually buy them…
Like they don’t go out in the first place…
100% it’s just aesthetic
"I wish Biden were alive to see this" 😂
Gianmarco Soresi always delivers
Two kinds of posters in 2025:
This is fascism (angry face emoji)
This is fascism (Yay!!! Emoji)

At first I thought it was a reference to Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
yes and that's why musk had a black eye.
I thought Elon got his black eye from Stephen Miller for Elon doing Miller's wife?
Separate event (although I am skeptical that one is true)
Anytime I see Aella referenced in any context I know its about to get weird.
And I can never predict the direction the weird will take!

It's so weird that the anti-seed oil thing has so quickly become a right wing trope.

Well they taste like garbage for one. I’m a big olive oils supremacist.
Yeah and infused olive oils kick everything a notch higher. I use olive oil when food doesnt demand frying/saute but I use dairy fat for cooking.
Duck fat is amazing for potatoes, would recommend

More for me 😈
I feel clued in. Thanks!
I had to take a look at the full list of dresses (here’s the link, if anyone’s interested: https://www.theguardian.com/thefilter/2025/jun/06/best-wedding-guest-dresses-uk)

*No shade to the prairie dress enjoyer. Mostly.
I continue to be mystified by GenZ’s affection for fashions that scream “Chariman Mao’s reeducation camp inmate.”

It's apparently a specious origin story for the Moscow Mule. One truly learns something new every day!

I had no idea KJP was an influencer, I've only known about the brand from the cute expensive sweaters. I really want this frog one...https://kieljamespatrick.com/collections/womens-sweaters-1/products/frog-hollow-knit-sweater?variant=43213072793693
Some cute stuff actually!! The Jackie Gingham Eyelet Shift Dress has caught my eye

It’s ostentatious and light pink, which is often a way CHH dresses
I regret to report that KJP's flannel dresses suck. Can't speak to the cotton sweaters.
