The October 2 cover of The New Yorker magazine features some of America’s top politicians in a race, a metaphor often used for elections. But there’s one thing that catches the eye in the illustration – the fact that President Joe Biden, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), and former President Donald Trump are all using walkers, not subtly suggesting a gerontocracy where the youngest person in the cartoon is 77. This comes at a time of debate over age limits following incidents such as Minority Leader McConnell freezing in a public press conference. In a Q&A with Françoise Mouly, creator Barry Blitt claimed that his work was not ageist. But some social media reactions argued otherwise with Victor Shi, an elected delegate for Joe Biden in 2020, taking to X, formerly Twitter, and saying, “Not only is it incredibly ageist but it’s ableist & a slap in the face to every person in America who needs a walker & who has a disability. This is disgusting & vulgar beyond words.”

Five months after actress and director Olivia Wilde claimed publicly that her ex spouse, the actor and former SNL star Jason Sudeikis, wasn’t paying her a cent in child support to cover the care of their two children, the sparring stars have now reportedly settled their divorce dispute, and Sudeikis will pay Wilde $27,500 per month in child support, according to The Daily Mail. The two will also share joint custody. Wilde famously ditched Sudeikis back in 2020 for a brief romance with pop star Harry Styles, who also acted in Wilde’s film Don’t Worry Darling.

For sustainability and fashion, Cariuma has become a force in the footwear space. Alongside great collabs with National Geographic, The Gogh Museum, and Crooked Media, several of the in-house designs have also been worth their salt. This is certainly the case with the latest drop from the company. Cariuma’s latest collection is no exception. The Leopard Sneakers collection is a new splash on some of the old favorites that will surely make the crowd go wild (feel free to groan here).
The new leopard sneakers offer a modern twist and fall refresh to the brand’s classic sneaker designs, including the hi-top and slip-on shoes. Like always, Cariuma has prioritized sustainability and ethical manufacturing for the leopard print drop. For every purchase of the shoes, two trees will be planted in at-risk forest and brush areas in Brazil, the native land of a large portion of the leopard population, so you can feel great about your purchase on all fronts. The leopard collection includes five new comfortable styles, available in both men’s and women’s sizes. Grab yourself a pair before the drop sells out!
