In most cases, confusing Portland, Maine, with Portland, Oregon, might be seen as an innocent faux pas. But in the case of political actors ahead of an election, it can be a costly—and frankly comedic—blunder. A recent attack ad targeting Troy Jackson—the Democratic candidate in the Maine Senate race who is running against incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins—has appeared in front of users far from Maine, leading many to believe its placement was a mistake. Funded by the Defending Main Street

Workers removed more than 500 trees over the weekend at a Washington, D.C., golf course that President Donald Trump is working to remodel. It happened like many of his other design projects around town: suddenly and without permission.

Kelly Clarkson just thrust a small Brooklyn boutique into the limelight, and not in a good way. Art of Play, a high-end novelty shop offering playing cards, puzzles, games, and “playful decor,” apparently caught the singer’s attention. In a social media post that’s since been viewed 44 million times, Clarkson said she thought the store “looked really rad,” but upon entering Art of Play in hopes of buying a certain item, she claims she “literally was looked at as if I couldn’t afford it.” “Wow, d

Shane Gillis hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend, and the response to the comedian’s opening monologue has been fast and mostly furious. On Saturday, Gillis took the stage and almost immediately insulted women with a joke that pretty indisputably did not land. In what first sounded like self-deprecating humor, the comedian vented about needing to lose weight and his awkward trips to the gym. Quickly, it turned into a misogynistic jab about women’s outfits. “I haven’t been to the gym i
