Since stepping down as senior members of the British Royal Family over a year ago, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been laying down roots in California and are also expecting their second baby.

As far as new job prospects go, Prince Harry has got it covered.


In addition to the couple inking a $100 million deal with Netflix and launching the Archewell Audio podcast on Spotify, the Duke of Sussex has recently taken on an executive role for a Silicon Valley startup firm that specializes in online coaching and mental health, called BetterUp Inc.

He was named "Chief Impact Officer" for the firm—a job title which also goes by the acronym, "CHIMPO."

While "CHIMPO" may seem like an odd executive title to the casual observer, it is eliciting giggles from our neighbors across the Pacific.

In Japanese, the word "chimpo" is a slang term for "penis."


Twitter users familiar with the language gave their confirmations.






According to the Japanese news site, SoraNews24, many of the country's social media users could not help laughing over Harry's new position title.


The following tweet literally reads, "Prince Harry has become a d*ck."

"I will never be tired of this headline."

"Imagine if he came to Japan and introduced himself as a 'chimpo' to officials? I'd love to see their faces!" a person was reported to have said.

One social media user asked:

"So his role is Chief Pole Officer?"

Another pointed out:

"It doesn't matter what age you are, the word 'chimpo' always raises a smile."

And one user quipped:

"Now he's a Royal C–ck?"

Joking aside, Harry said in an email confirming his new position with the Wall Street Journal he endeavored to "help create impact in people's lives."

He had previously mentioned plans to work with mental health issues as Markle admitted in the tell-all Oprah Winfrey interview she was suffering from depression during her time as a Royal inside Buckingham Palace. His own mother's struggles with depression and an eating disorder are well documented.

BetterUp CEO Alexi Robichaux refused to reveal details about Harry's compensation and employment agreement but did mention Harry joining the leadership team as an "officer of the corporation" would be "a meaningful and meaty role."

He couldn't have said it any better.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
