Your Daily FoodScope for May 18, 2025
Do you often find yourself wondering what food to cook, how to cook it, and even that dreaded question—how much of it? It's a daily struggle for all of us, but need not be with our food horoscope. Satisfaction is only a click away!
Recent romantic setbacks may have you feeling blue today. You'll be in need of an emotional outlet, so a good cry may be good. But a cheesy chicken and mushroom casserole will make you feel even better. Contrary to popular belief, butter and cheese can sometimes be your friend.
You'll feel as snug as a bug in a rug today. Could it be because it's the weekend and you'll be relatively stress free? Or does this contentment come from just spending time at home? But most likely it's from the Eggs Benedict you made for brunch and the six mimosas you washed it down with.
The weekend is always the worst time to be frugal. But there it is, so tighten the belt today by getting cheap with your eats. This could be embarrassing at dinner when you order a side salad while they're all having crab Newberg. Give them the sad puppy eyes and maybe, just maybe, they'll share.
You'll be King Crustacean today, angrily snapping your claws at everyone. Fly solo today and spare others the displeasure of your nasty company. A big bowl of New England clam chowder for lunch may soothe your angst. But your blood could get boiling again if they don't have oyster crackers.
Your pride will be bruised by a romantic breakup today. How dare anyone do that to you! Put on a brave face until you get home and then let the waterworks flow shamelessly. There'll be no one around to see that, or to witness you stuffing your face with macaroni and cheese and cheap red wine. Get even more insights for the month ahead with your premium Monthly Horoscope.
Friends will help you get through a tough time today. Show your love and gratitude by hosting a small dinner party. It's only the best for your friends so use real crabmeat in your stuffed baked flounder rather than faux crab. Your friends will notice if you get cheap on them.
Friends will fly of the emotional handle with alarming regularity today. You'll have to keep a level head to keep things from descending into chaos. Invite them over for big bowls of lentil soup. It'll be hard to stay in a foul mood after enjoying a heaping helping of healthy goodness.
Having so many excellent foreign restaurants in your community makes it hard to pick a favorite. So order take-out from all of them to come up with something innovative. Baked ziti with Szechuan almond prawns, scrapple, baklava and a schooner of German pilsner won't be unorthodox as you think.
Replace the intense pace of the week with complete and utter laziness today. You'll revel at doing absolutely nothing and you may not even feel like going out to eat. Hopefully you're kitchen is well stocked. If not, there's nothing wrong with having Cheerios and English muffins for dinner.
You may get bored with being at home today. So find adventure on the streets of the big city. There'll be so many choices for fun, especially when it comes to dinner. A fifties-style diner is always a riot, and you can eat your hot dog, fries and cherry Coke as you solve the puzzles on your placemat.
Tackle home projects you've been putting off today. Finally putting them behind you will free up a lot of time. So call friends to spend the afternoon hanging out. Beer, Buffalo wings and burgers at a sports bar is a great way to while away the hours, especially if there's a football game on.
Your magnanimous friendship will be deeply appreciated by those you touch today. So don't be surprised if you're inundated by dinner invitations. But don't take advantage of their kindness. Ordering the lobster Newburg and crab bisque could really stretch the limits of their generosity. What does your karmic journey hold? Discover your destiny with our Karma Report. ✨

Jimmy Kimmel Calls Trump an ‘Arsonist With a Hose'
Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night's highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now. Fake News On Wednesday, Jimmy Kimmel, who's based in Los Angeles, mocked the idea that protests against immigration raids have turned the city into 'some kind of totalitarian hellscape' — a notion pushed by President Trump (and some cable news outlets) as he sent in Marines and the National Guard. 'He wants there to be a war going on here, and he doesn't care who gets hurt in it. There's no riot outside. We have more so-called 'unrest' here when one of our teams wins a championship.' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'Not only is it not an apocalypse, they're having a Disney Pixar movie premiere right now, for 'Elio,' a movie about aliens. Don't tell Trump, he'll send the Green Berets in, too.' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'You know, when we had the wildfires that devastated big chunks of our city, he did absolutely nothing. Now that we're in the middle of a nonemergency: 'Send in the National Guard!'' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'Putting out a fire you purposely start doesn't make you a firefighter, it makes you an arsonist with a hose.' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'Yes, nothing calms down a situation like a military invasion.' — DESI LYDIC 'You know, I'm beginning to wonder if Trump is intentionally trying to escalate this situation because more chaos allows him to portray blue states as centers of crime, while positioning himself as the strongman that the country needs to rally around. No, that's silly. I'm sure he's just doing what's best for everyone.' — DESI LYDIC 'Now, as we speak, Trump has sent thousands of troops into downtown L.A. to quell what historians will remember as the Battle of That Video of a Burning Waymo Car They Kept Showing on Cable News.' — STEPHEN COLBERT 'And to those of you in the National Guard who have been thrust into this: When Donald Trump orders you to do something that you know is immoral, try to get your dad's podiatrist to write a note to say you have bone spurs.' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'The president of the United States has been tougher on L.A. than on Russia. Remember that two-week deadline he gave Putin to sit down for peace talks with Ukraine? As of tomorrow, it's two weeks. But, by all means, send the Marines to The Grove.' — JIMMY KIMMEL 'Trump's terrible policy has generated a huge backlash, which he's responded to by overreacting, which is going to generate another backlash. We don't know how this is going to end, but at least we know it'll be a huge waste of money.' — DESI LYDIC 'I just want to say, thank God for President Trump and the heroes at ICE for protecting us from these bloodthirsty fruit stand vendors, spreading their dangerous pineapple chunks and mangos with a squirt of lime all over the city.' — JIMMY KIMMEL The Punchiest Punchlines (Meanwhile on Fox News Edition) Want all of The Times?

Diddy's alleged 'sexual deviant' behavior distracts from government's case: expert
Sean "Diddy" Combs' ex-girlfriend provided the jury more insight into the rapper's life outside his music mogul status when she returned to the witness stand Tuesday for cross-examination in his federal trial for sex crimes. Using a pseudonym, "Jane" testified that she broached the subject of rehab for the "Last Night" rapper after allegedly witnessing him "overdoing the partying." She claimed he would offer her ecstasy before engaging in role play and that Diddy liked to use the words "voyeurism" and "escapism" to describe his fantasies of watching her participate in sexual encounters with male escorts. Attorney David Seltzer told Fox News Digital that while Jane's testimony was compelling, her claims did little to aid in the prosecution's case to convict Diddy of the five charges he's facing. "The testimony from the latest witness, Jane, continues to show the world that Mr. Combs is a sexual deviant," Seltzer said. "Someone who thought he was untouchable and above the law. Still, while there is no doubt Mr. Combs broke multiple laws. The charges he is facing in federal court are not laws he has broken. "Jane's testimony, voice notes and all, while chilling and demonstrate Mr. Combs' controlling behavior, does not, in my opinion, prove the government's case. Rather, it further depicts Mr. Combs as morally reprehensible and as such someone the jury should convict." Former federal prosecutor Neahma Rahmani told Fox News Digital that this case "comes down to coercion versus consent." "Combs' lawyers cross-examined victim Jane the entire day and suggested that Jane chose to participate in the hotel nights. For the first time, we heard the defense's theory of their case," Rahmani said. "The testimony from the latest witness, Jane, continues to show the world that Mr. Combs is a sexual deviant." "Combs' lawyers also suggested that he was a drug addict and taking antidepressants, likely to play the sympathy card for the jury." During cross-examination, Jane said in 2022 she was trying to figure out her relationship with Diddy and came upon the term "cuckold," a word for a man turned on watching his woman have sex with another man. According to Jane, she wanted to know what was driving the rapper and to find an understanding of his alleged fantasies. She said she found multiple reasons, including that a "cuckold" derives pleasure from seeing his woman receive pleasure from another man. Jane testified that "cucks" could also have a curiosity that they were too ashamed to experience themselves, so they used a woman. Jane claimed Diddy liked to use voyeurism and escapism. "I would use the work 'cuck' for him," she told his defense lawyers. She also testified that Diddy was upfront with her about dating multiple women at the start of their relationship in 2021. She explained the rapper was "polyamorous" and she was OK with that at the time. She testified at first she didn't mind because she was just getting to know Diddy. According to Jane, she was forced to participate in "hotel nights." During these sessions, which could last from 24 hours to multiple days, she was allegedly expected to have sex with other men while Diddy watched. "Jane's testimony, voice notes and all, while chilling and demonstrate Mr. Combs' controlling behavior, does not, in my opinion, prove the government's case. Rather, it further depicts Mr. Combs as morally reprehensible and as such someone the jury should convict." While on the stand, Jane told defense lawyer Teny Geragos that she had been texting Diddy about him buying purses for another woman. Geragos commented that Jane received a bag of her own. "No, I only got trauma … after three-and-a-half years, I really don't think I garnered anything," Jane told the court. Geragos pressed, "How much do Bottega bags cost?" to which Jane replied, "How much does my body cost?" before asking the court for a break from testimony. When court resumed, Jane apologized to Geragos. "She claimed to be righteous and was going to walk away from Mr. Combs after her ask of '3 months' of continued financial support, but here we are over a year later and Mr. Combs is still paying her rent and legal fees as she testified against him," Seltzer said. "Is that the testimony of a victim? Is that the face of fear? I think Jane is primed to really help boost the defense case when all these points are honed in on." In a federal indictment unsealed on Sept. 17, Combs was charged with racketeering conspiracy (RICO); sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution. If found guilty, he faces a minimum of 15 years behind bars or a maximum sentence of life in prison. He has maintained his innocence throughout the trial, in which witnesses have testified to alleged rape, sexual assault, severe physical abuse, forced labor and drug trafficking. The trial is expected to wrap by July 4.
