Have you ever read something where you just KNOW the writer talks with their hands, does the sound effects, and would bust out a little dance if it suited the story? That's Erica. She's a colorful storyteller whose sense of humor and fearless honesty make a big impact. Her rants might go for the emotional jugular, hit your funny bone, or shock you and your mama out of your fajas. Usually it's all three. Often chronicling her life in Florida, her stories are full of characters like "Bikini Rifle Lady", "Mariachi Neighbor," and "Barbara The NextDoor Evangelist." There's almost always a message in the madness, and that's what people connect with most. Also her deep and undying love for Tevin Campbell. You can find more of her work at www.EricaFazio.com

As a media personality, there is a lot of pressure to always look your best, especially when the cameras are around. Since this pandemic kicked into high gear, many personalities have had to make adjustments to the way they work.

Today host Savannah Guthrie is no different.

She made adjustments just like most of the rest of the country's work force has had to. Unfortunately, for an on-air personality, those adjustments sometimes happen in the public eye. The public, as you all know, can be incredibly critical and not at all shy about it.

Recently one "helpful" viewer hopped on Twitter to tell Savannah Guthrie that her adjustments need more adjusting.

Susan, who is an Emmy Award winning meteorologist according to her Twitter bio as well as a reporter in Puerto Rico, was watching the news one day and just couldn't focus on what Savannah was saying. Savannah, like pretty much every other on air personality, has been doing her own hair and makeup for her broadcasts.

Those broadcasts often include mention of her two young children, ages 3 and 5. Guthrie has also been open about the relatively minor inconvenience/struggle of having to learn how to dye and process her own hair at home. Since she cannot safely use the stylists she normally does, she is taking a crack at handling these things at home like so many of us have done.

Savannah Guthrie is not a professional hair stylist or makeup artists, so she's been doing her best - something she graciously pointed out in her response.

Savannah's response was the sort of thing only people with years of public-facing jobs can manage.

Gracious, but gets the point across. We're in the middle of a pandemic, Susan. So yes, Savannah Guthrie could very likely afford a hair stylist "with what they pay" her. However, she would rather not risk her health, her children's health, or the health of a hair stylist and their close circle.

We mentioned how gracious Savannah was in her response. That doesn't mean anyone else on Twitter was. Susan didn't post her thoughts as a comment buried in a thread. She made it a whole tweet, tagging Savannah and all.

Tons of people saw it... and chimed in to tell Susan exactly what they were thinking.








This would be the point where most people would just bow out and stop talking.

Not Susan, though. Instead, she opted to defend herself.

Her defense actually kind of made it worse.

For you non-Spanish speakers, #MujeresAlPoder is a girlpower chant calling for women to be more empowered and in charge.

It seems like a really strange hashtag for Susan to use considering she just finished acting like Savannah's petty tia (aunt) masterfully delivering the backhanded compliments.

Again, Twitter had something to say.



Susan opted to then play the victim, essentially saying she thought she was just doing her job and she won't write what she thinks anymore.

You can guess how well that went over.







Susan has, perhaps wisely, stopped responding. She seems to have gone back to talking about animal welfare. Savannah Guthrie has made no comment other than the one acknowledging that she is doing her own hair during the pandemic.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Video Of Crows Ripping Out Animatronic Rapunzel's Hair At Tokyo DisneySea Goes Viral—And Yikes!

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Bald Men Are Up In Arms Over Viral Chart That Predicts Political Affiliation Based On A Man's Haircut

Can a man's haircut tell you his political affiliation? Scientifically, of course not... but we probably all have a gut feeling about it, regardless!

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
