JK Rowling is once again back in the limelight for yet another Karen move: this time she's signed an open letter calling for an end to online "cancel culture" on the grounds that she advocates for "open debate and freedom of thought and speech."

It's all incredibly cringey and we're really enjoying the reaction memes and tweets, which you can scroll through below!

Lana Del Rey is no stranger to media controversy, and this time she's gotten herself into hot water for ranting on Instagram about her disdain for the subject matter in the music of top female artists, including Beyonce, Doja Cat, Ariana Grande, and Cardi B. She continued, stating that there's no place in the music industry for women like her who are being their "authentic, delicate selves" and don't look "strong or necessarily smart" in their lyrical content. People started coming for Ms. Del Rey on social media, saying that her comments were entitled and racist for pointing mainly toward women of color. Just scroll down and read the debate and reactions for yourself, because honestly this sh*t is exhausting, y'all.
Meet the Shadow team in charge of developing an app meant to help tally the votes from the Iowa caucus on Monday night. The purpose of the app was to help the process run more smoothly, but in the end it proved to be a complete and utter disaster, as precinct chairs supposedly couldn't get the app to actually work, in turn causing a delay in reporting.
The delay was blamed on "inconsistencies" in reporting, but honestly, who really knows what the truth is.
The team is reportedly run by people who worked on Hilary Clinton's presidential campaign in 2016. Additionally, 2020 candidate Pete Buttigieg's campaign paid the tech firm over $40,000 in 2019 leading many to suspect foul play.
But this is America, and we can't possibly have problems with corruption, right?
As of right now, we still don't have all the results from the caucus, so while you continue to anxiously refresh the New York Times page, have some hot Twitter takes on the people (rats) behind Shadow, Inc.
Harriet, a biopic about Harriet Tubman, was just released earlier this month to favorable reviews, but apparently not everyone had the same ideas about exactly who should portray the American hero.
Screenwriter Gregory Allen Howard stated in an interview with Focus Features that one studio executive suggested that Julia Roberts, a white actress, should play Harriet Tubman. When someone else chimed in about what an absurd idea that would be, the same exec replied, "It was so long ago, no one is going to know the difference." We wish we were joking about this but alas.
Additionally, we would say that this news is positively absurd, but then again, nothing in the news is really surprising anymore, is it?

Much to the dismay of high school vapers everywhere, the Trump administration is reportedlyplanning to ban most flavored e-cigs due to a (supposed) rise of vaping-related illnesses and other health concerns, along with six deaths.
Memerseverywhere can't help themselves from making a mockeryof the situation, alleging that there have been far more deaths caused by both gun violence and cigarettes that the government has yet to act on. Not to mention, many believe that the ban is solely some sort of conspiracy theory by big tobacco to sell more cigarettes.
The following are some of the best memes and reaction tweets that we could find!
We all know Grimes as the weird Canadian singer who's dating the always-cringey Elon Musk - but this time, she may have out-cringed ol' Musky.
Grimes recently partnered with Adidas in a campaign where she described her "training regimen" in an Instagram post, stating that she has a "360 approach." Apparently this "360 approach" includes screaming sessions and an "experimental surgery" that supposedly eliminates her seasonal depression. Why Adidas picked Grimes of all people to launch a fitness-related campaign, we'll never understand.
No one's really certain whether Grimes is being serious or not with this completely over-the-top stunt, but honestly given how weird she is as a person, we kind of think she is...
The internet's latest obsession is with "Cliff Wife," which stems from YouTuber Shonduras's video "JENNY FELL OFF THE TRAIL...scary moment for our family," where his wife Jenny unimpressively tumbles off the trail onto some rocks while hiking.
Accordingly, the internet has started mocking the incident as "over-dramatic" with memes and reaction tweets. Is this super mean and totally going too far? Probably, but it should come as no surprise that the internet often shows no mercy when it comes to capitalizing off of someone else's pain.
So anyway, here are some of the best reactions that we've been able to find. Enjoy!

Twitter user Sharon Su noticed that women are very mysterious creatures, according to bathtub tray companies.
But perhaps these brands have a point , because really what could be more relaxing than enjoying a deliciously microscopic, dry salad and painting your nails while you wait for the water to inevitably get too cold? We've apparently been doing this whole "bath" thing totally wrong...
Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson called off their engagement this weekend, which came as a shock to absolutely no one. The couple stated on social media that it was simply not the right time for their relationship. Who knows what the future holds, but if one thing's for certain, Ariana has definitely had a tough year!
This situation might be a sign that getting engaged after dating for just a couple weeks isn't the best idea!
