Manhattan Council Candidate Proud of His BDSM Lifestyle After Dominatrix Video Leaked

Zach Weiner is only 26 and already dealing with a problem that’s normally a career ender. A video of him with a dominatrix is circulating on Twitter. Released by an anonymous source, the video shows Weiner gagged and abused with clothespins on his nipples.

Following in the footsteps of Billions character Chuck Rhoads, Weiner says he is a proud BDSMer. “I am not ashamed of the private video circulating of me on Twitter. This was a recreational activity that I did with my friend at the time, for fun.”

BDSM is probably the best thing to prepare you for politics.

Watch the video here.

The Bribes to Get Tables at Hamptons Restaurants Are Insane

If you are trying to get into a hot restaurant in the Hamptons, you may be joining a 1200 table wait list. Unless you know how to get around the list but it will take more than a C-Note to get you in. Hopeful diners are Venmoing thousands of bucks and if that doesn’t work (often it doesn’t), it might take a voyage on a private yacht, helicopter rides, and more. One diner paid five figures just for the right to rent a table for the season.

And we thought the Hamptons was obnoxious 5 years ago.

New York Times Reporter Sends Subway Tuna To A Lab To See What It Actually Is

One NYT journalist decided to buy some Subway tuna sandwiches, take out the tuna and send it to a lab to see what the hell it is. After a month, this is what the lab found:

“No amplifiable tuna DNA was present in the sample and so we obtained no amplification products from the DNA,” the email read. “Therefore, we cannot identify the species.”

It’s obviously people. We’re eating people sandwiches from Subway.

Macy Gray Wants to Redesign Our Flag to Be More Inclusive

Flag-o-philes are up in arms over Macy Gray saying the Stars and Bars need a redesign. She wants a flag that represents all of us. After January 6, the current flag feels a lot like the Confederate one that we’ve been trying to eliminate, she said. “The American flag has been hijacked as code for a specific belief. God bless those believers, they can have it. Like the Confederate, it is tattered, dated, divisive, and incorrect,” she wrote. “It no longer represents democracy and freedom. It no longer represents ALL of us. It’s not fair to be forced to honor it. It’s time for a new flag.”

Flag lovers are freaked out about the suggestion that we make the flag more inclusive.

You folks know we don’t have only 13 stars on the American flag now right?

TikTok’er Asks What Did You Learn Way to Late in Life

The topic started because a 20 year old man said he’s been swallowing his toothpaste his entire life because nobody taught him to spit and it turns out a surprising amount of young people are swallowing toothpaste and mouthwash every day. There’s also plenty of questionable pickle misinformation floating around. One guy believes insect noises is the sound of the sun. And there’s a woman who thinks the crust on bread is where all the nutrition is.

Looks like all of you learned way too late in life not to share embarrassing stories on the internet.
