Biff Tannen, the bully and bad guy in Back to the Future Part II, and a certain political figure who is rather infamous in America right, DO now have a relationship.

Both have been handed the keys to the fortune, and they’ve unrepentantly used that fortune exclusively for themselves.

Bob Gale, the writer of Back to the Future Part II, admits Biff had a role model.

“We thought about it when we made the movie! Are you kidding?”

You watch Part II again and there’s a scene where Marty confronts Biff in his office and there’s a huge portrait of Biff on the wall behind Biff, and there’s one moment where Biff kind of stands up and he takes exactly the same pose as the portrait? Yeah.”

Of course, in the movie, Biff uses the profits from his 27-story casino to help shake up the Republican Party, before eventually assuming political power himself, helping transform Hill Valley, California, into a lawless, dystopian wasteland, where hooliganism reigns, dissent is quashed, and where Biff encourages every citizen to call him “America’s greatest living folk hero.”

“Yeah. That’s what we were thinking about.”

Marty McFly and Doc Brown manage to fix it all, just in the nick of time. They save themselves and America from Donald Tr… uh, Biff Tannen. Help us Marty & Doc, you might be our only hope!

There is no doubt that when asking the question, “Who runs this mother?” It’s obviously the Knowles sisters. Solange Knowles gave the world “A Seat At The Table” on Friday and it’s full of sounds, life, color, anguish, grief, struggle, hope, and self-care. She has been sharing incredibly stunning visuals on her Instagram and website and now we can see why. She released two magical videos “Cranes In The Sky” and “Don’t Touch My Hair.”

When Bilgin Ciftci posted photographs online that likened Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Gollum from Lord of the Rings, he lost his job and was arrested for insulting the president. Now, his freedom hinges on a Turkish court’s decision about the very nature of good and evil: Specifically, was Gollum “bad?” Or was he simply corrupted by power? If Gollum is “good,” then the court has no case against Ciftci. If he’s “bad,” it’s two years in a Turkish dungeon for him.

Today, there was good news as a court-appointed panel of Turkish experts ruled that:

“it is not possible to state that the character Gollum is unequivocally negative or evil. As a result of reading the relevant literature and examining the film, it has to be stressed that the character Gollum rather than representing evil is portrayed as an innocent victim – and readers and viewers also see the character in that light.”

Hobbit and Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson put out a joint statement with filmmakers Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens on Ciftci’s behalf, saying that the character depicted in the photos was not even Gollum, but Smeagol, the other half of the character’s split personality.

“If the images below are in fact the ones forming the basis of this Turkish lawsuit, we can state categorically: none of them feature the character known as Gollum,” it read.

“All of them are images of the character called Smeagol, Smeagol is a joyful, sweet character. Smeagol does not lie, deceive, or attempt to manipulate others. He is not evil, conniving, or malicious — these personality traits belong to Gollum, who should never be confused with Smeagol.”

From the Middle East Eye:

As the spotlight on the case grew, Ciftci lost his job in October last year while facing up to two years in prison for violating Article 301 of the Turkish constitution, which punishes anyone who “publicly denigrates state officials, the Government of the Republic of Turkey and the judicial institutions of the state”.

The report which indicated that Gollum was not, in fact evil, was handed to the court on Wednesday and signed by Esra Bilgic, an academic at Bilgi University, Sercan Keceli, a psychologist, and Serhat Damar, a clinical psychologist.

Ciftci’s lawyer, Hicran Danisman, called for his client to be acquitted and for his post to be seen as within the scope of freedom of expression and not a case of defamation.

“Our defence from the very beginning was along these lines. The posted images should have been considered in the context of freedom of expression. We don’t want the court to acquit my client because ‘Gollum is not evil’ but within the scope of freedom of expression,” Cumhuriyet quoted him as saying.

A letter written on behalf of Erdogan, asking for most cases of defamation against him to be dropped in the wake of the 15 July coup attempt to promote national unity, has reached the court.

The court will take it into consideration during the next hearing scheduled for 25 October.

So, we’ll keep you posted.

Btw, Bilgin Ciftci would be an amazing hobbit name. Just sayin’.

Straight guys are asked what they would do if they noticed a gay guy checking out their goods in the gym shower. Initially, most are a little skeeved out at the prospect. Then, Davey Wavey makes them an offer: We won’t check you out, if THEY refrain from checking out women in their yoga pants etc at the gym. Suddenly, a lightbulb goes off. They can’t help it. And neither can we. “You keep look’s at that cock,” the cutie in the blue shirt says, “and you keep liking it!”

You already know by now that when asking, “who runs the world?,” it’s obviously the Knowles sisters. You also already know about the double drop of two stunning new music videos by Solange last night. It’s taken me almost twenty four hours to fully express the emotional response my heart is having to the healing, colors, imagery, and lyrics, but because I love fashion so much, I decided to rank all of Solange’s outfits from “Cranes In The Sky.”

Check it out:

19)

The only reason this is ranked last place is because I can’t see it up close. But I’m ALL about a shimmery, Clueless-cut, party dress in the desert.

18)

A one shoulder ribbed leotard makes me so happy.

17)

No one looks better in a nude swim suit. No one.

16)

Who needs a floral romper when you can have a tinsel one?

15)

Just stunning.

14)

I’m loving this astronaut-inspired jumpsuit.

13)

Jane Austen meets Ferngully. This pale pink frock and sandal combo is #goals.

12) 

I want a dress that’s knotted down the side.

11) 

I only want to wear nude maxi dresses in swimming pools now.

10)

Incredible.

9)

Whimiscal.

8)

This color is just EVERYTHING and I love how they are all connected, literally!

7) 

I love a pantsuit.

6)

Wish we could see this up close but it’s just perfection.

5)

Absolutely gorgeous.

4)

I would wear this to the grocery store or on Sunday errands.

3) 

Breathtaking.

2)

Obsessed.

1)

Obviously this foam pink coat is just, sigh, I can’t even fully form words.

The city of Aleppo in Syria is probably the most dangerous place on earth right now. But as residents leave in droves to escape the war, one man has stayed behind to care for the hundreds of abandoned cats.

“When people left, the cats just start coming to me,” said  Mohammad Alaa Jaleel aka the Cat Man of Aleppo. “They were stray cats and cats left behind by their owners. Some people just left them with me knowing that I love cats.”

As the fighting and bombing intensified, more and more frightened animals started approaching him for food and protection, which he always happily provided. Mohammed says he started taking care of about 20 to 30 cats, but the number of feline refugees at his walled sanctuary has now swollen to over one hundred.

The “cat man” said that ever since his human friends left Aleppo to escape the war, the cats have become his only friends in the city, and he would never dream of leaving them behind. “Someone who has mercy in their heart for people has mercy for every living thing,” he says. “I said I’ll stay with them no matter what happens.”

Watch a touching BBC segment on Mohammad, below.

And if he wasn’t already saintly enough, there’s this:

You should know that Mohammand Alaa Jaleel is also actively involved in human rescue operations throughout the besieged city. Photos posted on Facebook show him rescuing children from collapsed bombed buildings, carrying defenseless civilians away from danger, and even feeding the needy and the sick.

A Facebook page has been started to nominate Mohammad for a Nobel Peace Prize. (via Oddity Central)

The National Rifle Association went on a tasteless, Trump-like Twitter rampage this afternoon, trolling Kim Kardashian about her position on gun control after she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris last night.

According to HuffPo:

The tweets appear to be in response to Kardashian West’s criticism of the U.S. Senate for failing to bolster background checks in June after a shooter left 49 people dead at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

Check out their rampant assholery below.

Wait, criminals held @KimKardashian at gunpoint in Paris? How is that possible? Does anyone know if they passed a background check first?

— NRA (@NRA) October 3, 2016

It’s shocking that these criminals did not subject themselves to Paris’ strict #guncontrol laws before committing this awful crime.

— NRA (@NRA) October 3, 2016

Stronger gun laws… like the ones they have in Paris? #askingforafriend https://t.co/xHUhViDtpN

— NRA (@NRA) October 3, 2016

They then essentially doubled down on their trolling when they were called out on it.

Wrong. #NRA expresses concern, as well as confusion that criminals in Paris were armed in the first place. https://t.co/PUGu2f8qD7

— NRA (@NRA) October 3, 2016

.@Everytown… Wait, are you saying criminals don’t follow current laws? That can’t be true.

— NRA (@NRA) October 3, 2016

No, #NRA expresses confusion about how this happened. Guns aren’t really allowed in Paris, so…. https://t.co/okd5JDowrU

We just think criminals should stop breaking the law.

Because flower beards and glitter beards are soooo 2014, Krato Milano has developed a jewelry collection “dedicated to beardsmen who express their individuality in eccentric, yet sophisticated way.”

Krato Beard Jewelry collection consists of iconic shapes like skull, anchor, and classic crystals that could be mixed and matched to create most unique adornment look.

Beard Jewelry collection is currently available to pre-order on Kickstarter, while it is raising funds until November 3rd. Pre-ordered Beard Jewelry is scheduled to ship in December right in time for Christmas, so it will make a truly special gift. By supporting Krato’s Beard Jewelry on Kickstarter, backers are not only helping this unique accessory come to life, but also getting discounts off future retail prices and helping beard community grow.

It has taken over a year to design and perfect the items. The biggest challenge was to develop a functional clip that would firmly attach onto different types of beards while being comfortable to wear

Hmmm. Skulls and anchors are cute and all, but they seem a little… small. And I imagine from a distance they would just look like food stuck in your beard. But OK.

Get yours here.

A Halloween costume for men, with the inflammatory “t’ word in the title, has made its way onto Walmart’s website via a third-party ‘Marketplace Retailer. ’

It’s being put out by Halloween supplier Spirit Halloween, which last year had a Cailtyn Jenner Halloween costume for men.

A description reads: “All the guys will be dressing up as superheroes and princes, but you will stand out among the rest in this hilarious Granny Men’s Costume!

“The costume includes a white tank dress with pink collar and colorful flowers all over as well as curvaceous butt and boob pads to complete the look.

“This granny wouldn’t go anywhere without her pink babushka with flower design headband to keep her hair perfectly in place.

“Slap on some makeup and get ready for your granny walk and you will have the room roaring with laughter!”

UPDATE: Walmart appears to have taken it down, as THIS is what appears on the link:

If by technical difficulties, you mean: a sudden deluge of hate e-mails…

UPDATED UPDATE: According to LGBTQ Nation

Walmart has reached out to say they have yanked the costume from their website because it “obviously” violated their terms of service for third-party retailers.

Ravi Jariwala from Walmart Media Relations tells LGBTQNation: “While it’s listed on other sites, it clearly violates our policy and was quickly removed once we were notified. We’re appalled this seller put it on our site to begin with.”

The costume is still for sale with the same name on Amazon.

Although, I think Amazon has pulled it now, as well, as I can’t find it there.

Good. Message received.

Pouty-lipped humpmonkey Cameron Chuffe has been cast as Superman’s grandfather, Seg-El, in the SyFy pilot Krypton. Set two generations before the destruction of Supe’s home planet, the series follows Superman’s grandfather (Cuffe) — whose House of El was ostracized and shamed — as he fights to redeem his family’s honor and save his beloved world from chaos.

Via Deadline:

Destined to be the ancestor of Jor-El (future father of Superman) and Kal-El (the future Superman), Seg-El is the scion of the once-prosperous El family and is blessed with an intuitive brilliance for all things technical. He now is living in Krypton’s lowest caste after his family was stripped of its rank.

Series star Cameron Cuffe joins young British actress Georgina Campbell, who was cast in the pilot as the female lead of Lyta Zod.

Lyta would, of course, be the grandmother of Superman’s mortal enemy General Zodd. DUN DUN DUUUUUUNNN.

This is Cameron’s first big role. He was cast in the Meryl Streep sleeper Florence Foster Jenkins earlier this year, but other than that, his IMDB is rather sparse.

I did find this interesting tidbit about him in a 2011 article in the Barnstable Patriot of Massachusetts:

Cameron Cuffe, who has been accepted into a new acting school in Dublin, comes from a family who has summered in Osterville for decades. Pictured here, he portrays the world’s most famous vampire in a production at his prep school, Choate, in Connecticut.

And there are enough signifiers in that sentence to let us know that he’s from a very wealthy family and would make a lovely husband for any one of us.

Below, a few pics of Cameron for your afternoon perusal.

That is some amazing reporting there, guys. You send your reporter to the FUTURE to bring back the results of tonight’s Vice-Presidential debate, and lo and behold that “the consensus was clear” that “after the dust settled” YOUR candidate was “the clear winner”! In fact, you even managed to highlight his top moments… that haven’t happened yet… “his handling of the economy and Hillary’s scandals.” Maybe if the Republicans can time travel, they DO belong in the White House, after all.

The post (which has since been taken down):

Via Bustle:

The GOP.com blog is so confident of Republican VP nominee Mike Pence’s performance tonight that they’re not even waiting for the debate to start to proclaim Pence the winner. The blog, which is managed by the Republican National Committee, declared proudly nearly two hours before the vice presidential debate began that “The consensus was clear after the dust settled, Mike Pence was the clear winner of the debate.”

The blog post had all the precise writing of a drunk kindergartner’s journal entry. “Mike Pence made the most of his opportunity to debate Hillary’s VP pick Tim Kaine,” the post continued, adding that “The other clear winner from tonight’s debate was Donald Trump.” I mean, jeez, if things get any more clear this election’s gonna be see-through.

Not content with merely declaring Pence the debate winner before he even took the stage, the GOP blog also went after Democratic VP nominee Tim Kaine, for questions left unasked by the moderators who have not yet had the chance to ask any. A third blog post declared that “The American people have spoken and it’s clear who tonight’s biggest loser is, Hillary Clinton.” It’s nice of them to address that sentence to HRC, but who is the biggest loser? MYSTERY!

Maybe if we’re really lucky, the RNC will look into the future and tell us that Trump won the election in basically the yugest landslide of all time, really amazing, tremendous, and save us the trouble of voting.

Jordan Peele – of the comedy team Key and Peele –has written and directed Get Out, a super-nutty, racially-tinged, psychological horror movie about a young black man going to meet his white girlfriend’s family. Things go from goofy and sweet to HOLY CRAP WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON over the course of the two-and-a-half minute trailer.

That’s not all the trailer shows: the two-minute clip manages to cram enough plot points in that it makes watching the final movie seem slightly pointless, explaining the family’s unsavory hobbies, as well as showing the fate of other black people in the community. If you’re aiming to watch Get Out when it hits screens in February, maybe only watch the first minute of this trailer — that’s more than enough to make Peele’s proper horror debut seem properly interesting.

Nah, watch the whole thing.

The movie stars Catherine Keener, Allison Williams, Daniel Kaluuya, Bradley Whitford, Caleb Landry Jones, and will be released on February 24th (via The Verge)

Seriously, watch it now. You won’t regret it.
