james corden's space force walks out to africa by toto: your daily distraction... you're welcome

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: after another tragic school shooting, there’s nothing more inspiring than seeing schoolkids take to social media to protest and make a stand against gun ownership. That’s exactly what’s happening with #NationalSchoolWalkout today - which were largely organized using social media. The walkouts lasted 17 minutes and honoured those killed at the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.

While visiting California, Donald Trump mentioned how the U.S. should have a new force called “the Space Force”. What follows next is quite possibly our favourite dumb Tump statement: “It’s like the Army and the Navy, but for space, because we’re spending a lot of money on space.” - Those are real words that actually came out of the President of the U.S.A’s mouth. Naturally, the internet ate this up.

While her husband defends planet Earth from Xenomorphs, or whatever, Melania Trump will meet with Facebook, Google, Twitter, and other tech giants to discuss online harassment. We know, we hate to devote 2 separate sections to the Trumps, but this is actually an important conversation. However, judging by the way that this administration labels criticism as “fake news”, we hope they’re not planning to get the tech giants on board to start labelling these stories as “harassment”. That would be troubling.

Currently trending on YouTube is this video of somebody replacing their cars open door chime with “Africa” by Toto. By now, we all know that “Africa” by Toto + internet = success. We guess you could say that he turned it into an Afri-car. 

As more and more networks take the leap to produce content for social media outlets, “James Corden’s Next James Corden” hits Snapchat today. It’s interesting to see where this goes, as long as the bigger networks don’t start taking away from the smaller social media content creators. Let’s face it, that’ll probably happen.
