Missiles and memes
In 2025, the frontlines weren't only on maps. They were in timelines, newsreels and comment sections. Bangkok, Tehran, Karachi saw protests, bomb blasts or drone attacks, evacuations. Right alongside them cropped up reaction memes, viral posts, and GIFs that turned tragedy into theatre. Social media zoomed in on distant conflicts and raised awareness of political rights of various groups. At the same time, by its very nature, social media flattened the context of these crises and transformed them into content. The churn felt distinctly unsettling this year with too many wars unfolding too closely, curated through the anxiety of strangers scrolling from afar. When Bangkok erupted into protests over the disputed election, the world didn't discover them through the BBC reportage so much as through viral TikToks filmed from motorbike taxis. One clip showed a protester sprinting down Sukhumvit Road — slingshot in one hand, bubble tea in the other — with the caption: 'Multitasking level: Thai.' Protest culture in Thailand has long employed humour as defiance. Online, that tradition became not just expression but survival: between serious updates about police lockdowns, posts showed riot police seeking shelter under Hello Kitty umbrellas and demonstrators pausing to feed stray cats. A viral tweet captured it best: 'If you can't control the parliament, at least control the vibe.' Yet humour here was purposeful, it was not a sign of apathy. Iran's uprisings left little room for memes. Video footage carried the rattling sound of live fire, women pulling off hijabs in defiance, and smoke that hovered over chanting crowds. On X, diaspora Iranians amplified these scenes with urgent translations and calls for solidarity. However, their feeds also flooded with misinformation. Recycled clips labelled 'breaking,' and old footage repurposed as new added to panic and added fuel to the fire. Tensions inside the commentary sections erupted in their own right. A London-based Iranian journalist posted a contentious thread accusing Western influencers of 'trending tragedy for clout.' The responses flooded back, some in agreement, others defensive. In that moment, social media didn't cushion the event — it gouged it deeper, turning grief into ammunition and moral mudslinging is the first thing to reach for when sentiments are hurt. As India-Pakistan tensions flared at the border in April-May, the screens lit up. Hasthags like #StandwithTroops and #NoMoreWar were trending within hours. WhatsApp chains delivered blurry desert troop footage — some recent, some recycled. On Instagram, users spliced shots of soldiers with scenes from cricket matches, mocking how the nations treat both virulence and cricket with equal intensity. A Pakistani meme read: 'This area has been added to your cart,' overlaying a disputed map with an absurd click-to-purchase interface. Another quipped: 'We're just one bad Wi-Fi connection away from peace.' Humour persisted, but what defined the commentary was fear. Twitter Spaces that night crackled with dread and speculation. For many inside Pakistan, social media made a far-off flare-up feel closeted right next door — one you could mute, until you couldn't. Still, it wasn't just citizen memes driving the conversation. The Indian government's Press Information Bureau posted a standout meme during the tense border stand-off: 'Yeh koi tarika hai bheek maangne ka?' (Is this any way to beg for alms?) mocking Pakistan's economic woes under a satirical headline about a fictional 'Chief Begging Officer.' It instantly went viral. In response to a ceasefire, Pakistani singer Chahat Fateh Ali Khan's patriotic song 'Meray Watan Meray Chaman' became meme fodder. Sarcastically declared more destructive than nuclear bombs, it prompted comments like 'I surrender.' Across these theatres of conflict, humour appeared as a coping mechanism in Thailand, while outrage flared in Iran, and satire took the wheel in Pakistan. The platforms transformed lived disaster into spectacle in a fast and combustible. Truth and falsehood travel together, faster than fact-checks. And amid the virality, it was easy to forget that each post represented politics and stakes that cannot be seen simply on the phone screen. Still, without social media, many of these stories would never have landed anywhere but behind paywalls or official press releases. For better or worse, visibility turned into resistance online. However, through the lens of the algorithm, it was always edited through the logic of the scroll. After the hashtags By year's end, the news cycle moved on. Thailand's protests entered documentary loglines. Iran's protests fed sanction debates. India–Pakistan tensions cooled under ambiguous ceasefires. Yet in feeds, the residue persists — satirical memes keep resurfacing. Perhaps that's the clearest truth of 2025: social media doesn't stop for anything. Not even the devastation of a war.

Women On TikTok Recreating One Hilarious Hamilton Scene
In case you needed a reason to feel old, it's already the 10-year anniversary of Hamilton. To mark a decade of the iconic musical, the original cast reunited for a performance at this year's Tonys, and the filmed version of the show is set to be released in theaters in September. Of course, the internet at large is choosing to respond to this decennial anniversary with the most randomly hilarious trend possible: a TikToks where women dressed in colonial drag sneak out a window and lip-sync to the song "Best of Wives and Best of Women" and insinuate that Alexander thinks his wife is like, so annoying for having the gall to catch him sneaking off to his (spoiler alert) death. The trend began when TikTok user actuallyhamilt0n posted their hilarious interpretation of the scene. Instead of the tragic irony that accompanies the knowledge that Alexander is slinking off only to meet his death, we get an Alexander who literally can't even deal right now with his annoying, nagging wife. One commenter on the video wrote, "this isn't a hamilton cosplay, this is a lin manuel miranda cosplay": Another said, "imagine looking out your window to see how peaceful the night is then you see alexander hamilton is your neighbour and is halfway through a window 😭😭": And the History Channel wrote, "this is our first impression of u and we love u": People quickly jumped on the trend, and each video is cracking me up in its own way. The facial expressions in this one are absolutely perfect: "This is the best one I've seen, how did u know how to act like an inconvenienced man so well," asked one commenter. The creator replied, "Cuz I've been inconvenienced by men." Dying. "You really capture his essence of not wanting to be around his wife," one user wrote. Another person said, "The 'I know' smile is killing me." Hard same. The window-creeping here is too good: He might be the worst husband in the world — this commenter wrote, "you perfectly capture the 'I hate my wife and have no emotion when talking to her' look in his eye." "It's seeing the moment you realized how high that window was but also you not breaking character," one woman said. Or, more to the point, "THE WAY YOU'RE SILENTLY PANICKING." Of course, the trend (and the effort put in) only got more ridiculous from there. This example is particularly funny: And I was evidently not the only one wondering why everyone has a colonial outfit ready to don. Seriously: People were joking about how horrible of a husband Alexander truly was: As time went on, the sets and costumes somehow grew so much more elaborate — for example, see this one with a horse: One user wrote, "The budget increase as I scroll thru this trend is sending me." "Not the horse side eyeing her," said someone else: And another person said, "I like the implication that she was sleeping in the stall." Me too, random internet user. Me too. This Alexander was particularly committed to a hilarious location. Walking straight into the water is frying me: "When you turned around with the goggles on I LOST ITTTTTT," a commenter wrote. "We finally made it out the window goddamit," another person quipped. This Alexander opted for the most amazing, creepy, funny mask I have ever seen instead of the typical drawn-on goatee, and I am obsessed with that choice: The costume was so good I almost didn't even clock that Alex was exiting through the chimney. One fairly composed user replied to that by saying, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT," expressing my own thoughts more eloquently than perhaps I ever could. Another commenter (who happens to be Staples) wrote, "please stay in the chimney I'm scared." Hard agree. This person referenced the song lyric, "I'll be back before I know I'm gone," and said, "please don't." And this person pointed out that "AI could never replicate this art." True. This creator had the genius idea of setting their video in a water slide. "Hamilton will do literally anything to get away from Eliza," they captioned the video. And this Alexander seems particularly fed up by his wife. I am laughing so hard. "This is the best I've seen so far," commented a user named Sean. And as a bonus, here are some other Hamilton videos inspired by this trend that I thought were absolutely hilarious: This woman getting caught filming her lip-sync is so funny: This one — the lipstick on the neck? The underwear? I'm laughing: And finally, what may be my favorite video to date. Between the outfit and the facial expressions, this one has me absolutely dying: The internet is a weird place — I wouldn't have been able to predict this trend in a million years, but now that it's here, I think it's so funny. Tell me your favorite video (or just your thoughts in general) down in the comments below!

Olivia Rodrigo And Conan Gray Admit To Giving Each Other ‘Bad' Music Advice
Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray open up about their close friendship, musical misjudgments, and how their support and occasional poor advice shaped some of their biggest hits. Pop stars Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray might have undeniable chemistry, but their track record as each other's musical advisors isn't perfect. Wondering why? The long-time friends recently sat for an interview with an entertainment news portal, where they revealed that they've given each other surprisingly bad advice about which songs to release as singles. They also stated that they almost deterred each other from releasing hit songs as singles. In a recent conversation with Interview Magazine, the 22-year-old Rodrigo recalled telling Gray that 'Memories', which became the biggest hit off his Superache album, wasn't his strongest. The 26-year-old singer Conan Gray returned the favour by doubting 'Vampire' as Rodrigo's lead single from Guts, despite it going on to become a smash success. 'We notoriously give each other bad advice sometimes about samples. On Superache, you played me 'Memories', which turned out to be the biggest hit on the album. Everyone loved it. And I remember hearing it for the first time and being like, 'I just think you have better songs'," Rodrigo admitted. Likewise, Gray thought that 'Vampire' wasn't her strongest when Rodrigo was gearing up to release Guts. 'When I played you Guts, I played you 'Vampire', and I was like, 'Isn't this good?' And he's like, 'Not for a first single," the singer recalled. 'We're notoriously wrong about each other's songs. 'We're just too close to it and can't see the forest for the trees," Rodrigo admitted. Despite their flawed instincts, the pair remain close and supportive. Olivia Rodrigo's family is a Conan fan Though they may not have had the best judgment for each other, Gray revealed that Rodrigo's mom was always a fan of 'Vodka Cranberry'. In the same interview, she shared that Gray has a major fan in her mom. 'My mom loved it. My mom's such a huge Conan fan. My whole family, actually. They travel miles to see you in concert," she revealed. Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Grey's bond The duo first crossed paths five years ago through a misunderstanding. Gray ghosted Rodrigo after a text invite for a 'COVID walk", mistaking her for another Olivia from his hometown in Texas. Fortunately, producer Dan Nigro helped set things straight with a dinner outing, and since then, the singer-songwriters have shared a strong bond, performing together, dancing on each other's TikToks and attending events like the Met Gala side by side.
