Scott Disick Reacts to Coronavirus With Limited-Edition Merchandise


Scott Disick, of Kardashian fame, launched a line of tees and hoodies over the weekend with a phrase we’ve recently turned into a mantra: Please wash your hands. We can’t tell whether this is a moment of genius or an early April Fools’ joke, but only Lord Disick and the Kardashian-Jenners can turn a global health crisis into a brand moment and opportunity to sell merch.

Obviously, the entire family took to Insta to spread the news.

Lord Disick practicing what he preaches.

The collection dropped over the weekend as a way to spread the word you need to take handwashing extra seriously if you haven’t already. If you’re thinking what we’re thinking (“wow, they move fast”), the merch may too. It’s a limited-edition line from the 36-year-old dad’s brand Talentless. Founded in 2018, the brand “is an homage to the new wave of creators, innovators, and influencers who’ve made a name for themselves by going against the conventions of what it means to be ‘Talented.’” Cool.

You can shop two styles—a T-shirt ($49) and a sweatshirt ($129) with an objectively nice-looking font—directly from Disick’s brand’s website. The products are available in black and white, and “seasonal” colors like mustard yellow and navy blue.

Real talk: We’re not one to agree with Lord Disick on most matters, but he is leaning into the CDC’s call for people to wash their hands often, so maybe this hoodie is the reminder we didn’t know we needed. Remember folks: Clean hands save lives.

Twitter Reacts to Ireland's Historic Abortion Vote


On Friday, voters in Ireland took to the polling stations to cast their ballots on whether the country should repeal the eighth amendment of its constitution, which effectively bans abortions. Results for the referendum started coming in on Saturday—by the afternoon, the final vote was at 66.4 percent for the repeal and 33.6 percent against—and folks around the globe celebrated what could be considered Ireland’s first step towards allowing legal and safe abortions.

Constituents gathered at Dublin Castle in the nation’s capital, taking a moment to honor Savita Halappanavar, a dentist who died of sepsis in 2012 during a miscarriage, during which she’d asked several times for an abortion (doctors wouldn’t administer one as they could still hear a fetal heartbeat). Her death was considered a catalyst for the movement to repeal the eighth amendment, her image becoming a part of the campaign for a “yes” vote.

When the results were announced, Taoiseach (that’s Prime Minister to those of us outside Ireland) Leo Varadkar gave an incredible speech, remarking: “Today is an historic day for Ireland. A quiet revolution has taken place, and a great act of democracy. A hundred years since women got the right to vote. Today, we as a people have spoken. And we say that we trust women and we respect women and their decisions.”

“Today I believe we have voted for the next generation,” he continued. “We have voted to look reality in the eye and we did not blink. We have voted to provide compassion where there was once a cold shoulder, and to offer medical care where once we turned a blind eye.”

Across the globe, many chimed in via social media with their thoughts on Ireland’s historic referendum. Here are some of the most powerful, poignant reactions to the repeal vote from Twitter.

There were celebrations and congratulations…

…as well as reminders about the collective power of women at the polls.

Khloé Kardashian Is Reportedly Pregnant: Twitter Reacts


Are you ready for this, friends? Multiple outlets are reporting that Khloé Kardashian is expecting her first child. Yes, that Khloé Kardashian—the same Khloé Kardashian who’s half-sisters with Kylie Jenner…who is also reportedly pregnant.

“Yes, Khloé and Tristan are expecting and they are absolutely thrilled,” a source tells People. “This isn’t something they were in a rush to announce to the whole world, and it’s only been in just the past week or so that they’ve felt comfortable telling most of their inner circle. Things were complicated a bit by Kylie’s announcement as they don’t want to be seen as intruding on that moment for her but it is now reaching a point where Khloé doesn’t want to be openly lying to people, and just staying quiet isn’t going to work anymore.”

And these two aren’t the only people in the Kardashian-Jenner brood reportedly expecting children: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West also have another child on the way via surrogate. That’s three sisters in this family who’re about to expand their families. Crazy, right?

Twitter thinks so, too. They had a complete field day last Friday over Kylie’s (again, alleged) pregnancy, and they’re having similar feelings about Khloé’s. Check out the best reactions we found, below:
