Taylor Swift Fans Freaked out When an “Unknown Band ” Named Tool Grabbed the #1 Spot on the Charts

In very amusing (if you’re not a Generation Z kid) Twitter news, Taylor Swift fans are confessing they’ve largely not heard of popular 90s band Tool.

Tool has always had a strong, loyal following and, since they’ve just released their first album in over 13 years, it’s not hard to believe they’re most likely going to eclipse Lover, Swift’s latest, on the top Billboard chart.

Swift’s fans are not only upset that she’s only going to get to spent one week reigning the charts, but they’re awfully confused…because they’ve never heard of Tool and can’t understand how this “new” band has dethroned Tay.

Swifties have taken to Twitter to try to rally support for Lover, encouraging fans not to give up and to keep streaming, even though everyone realizes it’s probably all for naught.

The best part (if you’re a millennial or older or just someone with great taste in what can now be considered classic rock) is how they’re directing their outrage at this band “no one has heard of” for daring to release such a successful album.

They’re also (perhaps rightfully) “shook” seeing the lengths on most of Tool’s offerings.

For their part, Tool fans everywhere are pretty much delighted at the reaction – and the return of the band to the airwaves and the charts.

I mean, what fun is logging into Twitter if you can’t giggle at teenagers whipped into a frenzy over one of the great bands of your own youth, right?

Are you a Tool fan? A Swiftie? Neither?

No matter what, these tweets are pretty darn funny, if you ask me!

A Woman’s Thread About Her Obsessive Stalker Is Scary and Accurate

Stalking is more common than you think – a fact illustrated by writer and activist Johnnie Jae, who decided to share her own story of being stalked as a teenager.

She hopes that by telling her story, other young women will realize that they’re not alone…and that they should speak up if something similar happens to them.

When she was 19, a man in his late twenties, a library employee, started following her home after she visited his place of employment.

Part One

Part Two

Part Three

Part Four

Part Five

He freaked her out so badly that she quit going to the library, but it wasn’t long before he showed up at her new job.

Part Six

Part Seven

Part Eight

Like many women, she wondered what she’d done. She wondered if she’d encouraged him, if she was freaking out about nothing, if she should chill.

Part Nine

Part Ten

Part Eleven

Luckily, people around her let her know that she was not overreacting at all.

Part Twelve

Part Thirteen

Part Fourteen

Part Fifteen

Part Sixteen

Still, it got worse.

Part Seventeen

Part Eighteen

Part Nineteen

Then, he disappeared.

Part Twenty

Part Twenty-One

It was a strange feeling, to go from being frightened for her own life to being relieved at the loss of someone else’s, but the man’s bizarre and escalating behavior was a red flag no one should ignore.

Part Twenty-Two

Plenty of women had similar experiences, and they were willing to share too.

Seems like most women have a story like this.

It’s honestly really scary how often this happens.

It’s both frightening and empowering, to realize that so many people understand what it’s like to go through something like this, but the big takeaways are this: tell someone, and you’re not alone.

A Malfunctioning Wave Pool Created a “Tsunami” That Injured 40+ People

Reports differ as to what exactly happened at Shuiyun Water Park, a summer tourist resort in Manchuria, on July 29, but the result doesn’t change – many people were injured as a result of the wave pool being set to basically simulate a tsunami.

According to the waterpark, the incident was “caused by a mechanical fault” and “only around 10 people were injured.”

Local officials put the number of injured at 44, with 3 remaining in the hospital for some time to be treated for broken bones and serious cuts and bruises.

A Twitter user who uploaded the video of the rouge wave claimed the “wave machine operator got drunk and turned the machine to its maximum setting.”

The pool is shut down and authorities are inspecting it, but your guess is as good as mine as to whether the truth will ever find its way to the public.

I guess we’ll see.

In the meantime, make sure your swimming skills are up to snuff if you’re going to spend the day at your local water park – because you just never know!

A New Viral Selfie Challenge Has People Sharing Mental Health Advice for Their Younger Selves

There is some really good information in these tweets.

Though the #5YearOldSelfie challenge isn’t the first one to encourage people to give advice to their younger selves (in an attempt to help those still struggling), it is the most recent one to go viral.

UK-based mental health organization Young Minds initiated the challenge and hashtag. Their mission statement is to “make sure all young people get the best possible mental health support and have the resilience to overcome life’s challenges.”

To participate, Twitter users tweeted pictures of their younger self along with 3 pieces of advice you’d have for that girl or boy, then tag three friends who you hope will add their own advice.

The advice runs the gamut, but none of it is bad – below are 12 tweets that are bound to make you feel great about how far you’ve come (or to know that you’re going to be okay, and that it gets better).

12. Keep smiling.

11. Things are about to change.

10. Don’t give away your toys.

9. You might be right.

8. Be brave.

7. You are loved.

6. Start drumming.

5. Life is waiting.

4. You matter.

3. Don’t fight with your mom.

2. Stay weird.

1. It gets better.

A Guy Told Women ‘How to Be a Better Mother’ — People Didn’t Hold Back with Their Responses

Women seem to have had it up to here with taking unsolicited advice about their bodies, roles, and future from men – a fact that one guy found out the hard way when he thought he’d offer up advice on best mothering practices.

Here it is:

How to be a better mother:

– Be feminine

– Wear dresses

– Don’t hit your kids

– Enforce boundaries

– Be physically active

– Don’t tease your kids

– Cook your family’s meals

– Don’t call your children names

– Do not get drunk in front of them

– Show up to their games *& cheer*

Now, let’s point a couple of things out right upfront. First, he’s very likely a man still hurting from the ways his own mother disappointed him as a child and is using this list and his platform as some weird way of fixing himself. This excuses nothing, because he is now a grown man and should know better.

Second, there are things on this list that many pointed out were absolutely arbitrary when it comes to being a good mother.

For instance, how a woman dresses.

Why would he care?

And what does it matter?

And whether she cooks dinner or goes for a run afterward.

Does it truly matter if she’s physically active?

But mostly, women just seemed to take offense at the idea that someone on the internet who doesn’t know them or their kids or how they actually run their family from day-to-day, would dare criticize them based on this list.

Or any list, honestly.

Because lists are not a good way to determine how whole groups of people should behave.

No, not at all.

Also, shoutout to the men out there – obviously raised by good women – also confused and irritated and not afraid to clap back!

Seriously bro? Seriously?

Who hurt you?

Let’s all just stop trying to force other people into small, arbitrary boxes labeled “good” and “bad,” shall we?

We’re all going to be happier if we do.
