The 20 Funniest Pop-Culture Tweets, News Items and Trivia Bits for Monday, June 23, 2025

The solstice has passed, but we’re always here to shine light on any day’s sillier entertainment news. Case in point: The Alpha Zombie from 28 Years Later has a giant prosthetic unit, apparently. Movie theaters are about to make you hate them more. And Ellen DeGeneres even made Margaret Cho feel bad.

All this and more from my desk, which fully expects to be in first place by the Fourth of July.
