Things going wrong in Phoenix already.

Conspiracy theorists think Joe Biden is actually just a guy in a mask, pretending to be the 80-year-old president. Under normal circumstances, that would be a baseless, fringe opinion that is consigned to the dustbin of public discourse. But now, Elon Musk’s social media platform X/Twitter is pushing it to the top of everyone’s newsfeeds. Tweets have flooded the platform in recent days claiming that Biden has a body double, following pictures of the president returning from his recent trip to Israel. “They’ve been pretty good up until now making sure he never spends too long in a hot room so the mask will start coming off of his chin,” said right-wing conspiracy theorist Brian Cates last week. “Here the mask is starting to come loose, it is visible and you can see the bulging in the chin area.” Cates was one of a flood of accounts which tweeted the video with a suggestion that Biden’s face was, in fact, fake, and got tens of thousands of likes and retweets for it. Separately, another user called Liz Churchill posted a video, which appears to be a zoomed-in shot of a television screen, saying: “This is getting more ridiculous by the day. This is not Joe Biden.” The discourse comes on the same day that the Kremlin denied a report that Russian president Vladimir Putin was ill. It also laughed off speculation that he used body doubles to cover for him in public appearances, a theory that has been circulating for several years. "Everything is fine with him, this is absolutely another fake," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. He was responding to a question about an unsourced report by a Russian Telegram channel that the president had suffered a serious health episode on Sunday evening. As for Biden, there is zero credible evidence to suggest that he is anything other than an old man with a wrinkly face. However, in the increasingly warped world of X/Twitter, conspiracy theorists now have all the blue “verified” ticks rather than trusted news sources. And it seems with Musk’s changes, such as pushing those blue tickers’ tweets into the new “for you” section of the feed, more and more people are going to be seeing theories like this, much more frequently.

We all have our comforts to get the best sleep possible, but it turns out a yellow-stained pillow is a staple for a lot of men and it's sparked a debate online. A photo of a yellow-stained pillow from Getty Images went viral went it was posted to Twitter/X by user Cam Thomson (@largemotorcycle). "Gf is mad at me because I have revealed to her The Yellow Pillow. Fellas, i’m sure you all know that this thing is magic," he wrote in the caption. He added in a follow-up tweet: "It’s not my fault the pillow is yellow and bestows upon me the most peaceful slumber." “To me, it’s my most comfortable pillow and a sign of a well-loved item,” Thomson told NBC News, but it has since been "tucked away in storage," as his girlfriend wanted him to throw it away. The tweet quickly began to do numbers, receiving 4.5m views, and over 63,000 likes and prompting a discussion where it there was an apparent gender divide as men were particularly attached to their yellow pillows from their childhood which apparently "give[s] you the best sleep of your life." "Part of being a man is using the same pillow since the age of 10 and never washing it," one person wrote. While another person said: "My life has been a downward spiral since I threw away mine when I was like 23." "I got rid of my yellow pillows maybe a year ago and I legit haven't rested comfortably since," someone else added. A fourth person commented: "Women will never understand the male attachment to their yellow pillow." While the women aren't exactly fans of the yellow pillows and make it known in the discourse. One person wrote: "If you go to his house and see these leave." "Yuck. This is just like my husband’s pillow. He calls it “seasoning," another person said. Someone else added: "Why do all men have a yellow pillow. WASH IT" As this debate roars on, the real question is... why do pillows turn yellow in the first place? It's all to do with the accumulation of moisture such as sweat, drool, wet hair, and even skincare products, according to Sleep Foundation. But a yellow pillow could also hinder your sleep due to the presence of allergens where things such as dust mites, and mildew build up in the pillow and cause allergic reactions. Your skin may also break out when using a yellow pillow due to the bacterial buildup on the surface you rest your head on each night. It is recommended that pillows should be replaced in one to two years or sooner if they begin to discolour.
