No More Antibacterial Soap

People reports that the FDA issued a new rule on Friday banning antibacterial soaps. They released the following statement: "Consumers may think antibacterial washes are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but we have no scientific evidence that they are any better than plain soap or water. In fact, some data suggests that antibacterial ingredients may do more harm than good over the long-term." Plain soap and water are still the best defense against germs. And if you're a Purell addict, according to this in-depth article by Mother Jones, it looks like you're in the clear, although even that article comes to the consensus that plain old soap and water is still best.

Lena Dunham and Amy Schumer are Tone Deaf

Lena Dunham and Amy Schumer took to Lenny Letter to turn their "outsider status" into a "Mean Girl: Party of 2" get together when discussing the Met Ball. Here's what they had to say:

Amy Schumer: "Well, I think it's different for everybody. I think your and my hustles are very similar. We have the need to create and contribute and are not about the spoils."

Lena Dunham: "You and I were literally sitting across from each other at the Met Ball, and it was so surreal to get to do that.

I was sitting next to Odell Beckham Jr., and it was so amazing because it was like he looked at me and he determined I was not the shape of a woman by his standards. He was like, "That's a marshmallow. That's a child. That's a dog." It wasn't mean — he just seemed confused.

The vibe was very much like, "Do I want to fuck it? Is it wearing a … yep, it's wearing a tuxedo. I'm going to go back to my cell phone." It was like we were forced to be together, and he literally was scrolling Instagram rather than have to look at a woman in a bow tie. I was like, "This should be called the Metropolitan Museum of Getting Rejected by Athletes.""

Amy Schumer: "You were dressed like a boy, and you looked sexy, and I really appreciated you showing me your tits several times."

Yeah, that's not how this works. And they wonder why people think they're assholes.
