ROUND ONE
Boner Candidate #1:SHE CLOCKED HER WITH THAT PHONE OMG
An enraged guest at an Atlanta hotel viciously attacked an employee during a dispute that started over incidental charges, hotel officials said. The incident, which was caught on video, shows an employee at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Atlanta Galleria beating a woman Monday afternoon with a phone and pulling her hair as horrified witnesses look on. A second clip shows the unidentified guest with a purple backpack holding a telephone by the cord as she runs at the female employee before hitting her with the device. “She clocked her ass w/ that mf phone omfg,” one caption on the footage read. A third video shows the fight continuing in the hotel’s lobby, where witnesses told other guests they “might want to move” as the frightening incident unfolded. At one point, the guest forced the hotel employee into a corner, where the mask-clad worker tries to fend off the attack with several kicks before she manages to break away.
Boner Candidate #2:WELL SIR….I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell and CNN host Anderson Cooper screamed at each other for over 20 minutes in a bizarre, heated interview over Lindell’s connections to an unproven coronavirus therapeutic he has been pushing to President Donald Trump, Tuesday. The interview quickly deteriorated after Cooper opened by asking Lindell if it’s “morally right” to push the unproven therapeutic he has financial ties to — a plant-based extract called Oleandrin — and questioned, “How do you sleep at night?!” “How are you different than a snake oil salesman?!” asked Cooper later on. “You have no medical background. There’s no evidence of the substance. It hasn’t been tested in animals or humans.” “I think my platform stands by itself. The platform that God gave me of integrity and trust,” declared Lindell. “I would not go all in on something to help people if it wasn’t true.” “If it wasn’t true you wouldn’t do it?” Anderson questioned.
Boner Candidate #3:THE TOKYO TOILET PROJECT
The Tokyo Toilet Project just cut the tape on newly installed restrooms at two parks in Tokyo’s Shibuya neighborhood this month. The colored-glass washrooms are cleverly designed to be transparent when unoccupied — so potential users can confirm they’re empty and clean — but turn opaque once the door is locked internally.“There are two things we worry about when entering a public restroom, especially those located at a park. The first is cleanliness, and the second is whether anyone is inside,” wrote the restroom’s creator, Pritzker prize-winning architect and Tokyo native Shigeru Ban, on the Toilet Project’s website. As a bonus, the bathrooms also put on quite the show: “At night, the facility lights up the park like a beautiful lantern,” Ban wrote. In addition to Ban’s installation, the Toilet Project has commissioned 15 other creators to build innovative fresh designs for public washrooms around the city. One creator’s proposal describes an “ambiguous space” consisting of 15 randomly combined concrete walls, with two gendered and one all-gender toilet hidden in the spaces between them — not ideal for those moments when you just gotta go, but aesthetically pleasing nonetheless.

ROUND TWO
Boner Candidate #1:YOU ARE NOT HELPING
A Minnesota state house candidate declared “Blue lives ain’t s–t” outside the home of a police union chief in an expletive-laden speech within earshot of children, video shows. John Thompson, the Democratic Farmer Labor (DFL) candidate for District 67A, apologized after facing backlash for shouting the profanities outside Minneapolis Police Federation president Bob Kroll’s home in Hugo, WCCO reported. “I want to make a positive difference, and my comments on Saturday were not helpful,” Thompson wrote in a Facebook post Sunday. Thompson, who won his primary last week, added, “Inflammatory rhetoric is not how I want to address the important issues we’re facing, and I apologize.” Video shows him shouting choice words into a microphone at neighbors who supported police, WCCO reported. Some of the clips also show children near the rally. “Come on over here with your ‘Blue Lives Matter’ sign. Blue lives ain’t s—, and if people in Hugo don’t support black people, f— Hugo,” Thompson could be heard saying.
