Everyone had wonderful retro photos to share in honor of Father’s Day. So to mark Fourth of July, let’s do another go-round.

Everyone had wonderful retro photos to share in honor of Father’s Day. So to mark Fourth of July, let’s do another go-round. This time, the theme is summer fun. Barbecues! Beach trips! Fireworks! Wacky swimsuits!

Would this be enough?

Oh, did you think we’d make it through July the Fourth without one single Hamilton post? Never fear my, babies. For here are the Schuyler Sisters, in the middle of their Tony Awards performance, reminding you to work — whatever that may mean for you tonight (I hope it’s figurative).

We spend all of our free time at barbecues and therefore know exactly what should and should not be played.

Nothing can tamp down barbecue fun like the wrong music choice—and nothing is more distracting while you’re trying to, say, make beer can chicken than having to spend time making the perfect barbecue playlist. So we did it for you!

Subdue your jealousy with hamburgers and red, white, and blue jello shots.

What are the famous folk up to on our nation’s day of independence? Seeing as we’re liable to froth at the mouth with envy, do we even want to know? (We do.)

“These beautiful vowel sounds could have been yours,” John Oliver crows, gesturing to his vocal chords.

"[@[Hillary Clinton] ] likes to cajole, she likes to make deals, and she likes to make friends," says one of her close friends and supporters. "And she knows it’s much harder to go after someone who you basically like, who you’ve had a drink with."

Preaching booze abstinence works about as well as sex abstinence, and if you’re going to drink, drink right. So: How do you drink right?

It’s summer. You’re going to some festivals. You’ll be outside, at bars with patios, drinking. If you’re most people, no one ever told you how to drink well or right. Hey, no one told us. More often, people told us not to drink—ever—because it’s bad. But preaching booze abstinence works about as wel...

"Wankers," mutters Lily Allen in one of the videos. The rest of us nod in vigorous agreement.

Friends, colleagues, strangers: I’m here to tell you what, in your heart of hearts, you already know. Air conditioners are hurting us more than they’re helping us. Air conditioners are making us weak.

It’s a cool 60 degrees in New York City right now, but in a few weeks time, we—along with the rest of the U.S.—will likely be experiencing the dead heat of summer. Here, that means sweating through your clothes while waiting for the M train, constantly inhaling the weighty stink of garbage, and list...

The Jezebel staff and some of our colleagues at Gawker have compiled a definitive list of what we’ll be bumping at every barbecue this summer, a playlist of songs ready to shift your mood and imbue you with a feeling of triumph.

Panda. Panda. Panda. By this time in the summer, most of the seasonal hits are a foregone conclusion, so we can all bank our beach bods on hearing Desiigner, Drake, Rihanna and, unfortunately, “Toothbrush” fifty-eleven times before we have to pack away our bikinis.

“My father is a feminist. He’s a big reason I am the woman I am today. People talk about gender equality. He has lived it, he has employed women at the highest levels of the Trump Organization for decades, so I think it’s a great testament to how capable he thinks women are and has shown that his whole life.” - Ivanka Trump

Today, Ivanka Trump, daughter of GOP presumptive nominee and melted Claymation villain Donald Trump, made an interesting claim. “My father is a feminist,” she told London’s Sunday Times. Oh, cool.

But a statement posted to the event’s website said that the absence of Rihanna unfortunately spelled doom for the entire event, since finding a replacement on such short notice would be impossible.
