In a world with well-known dumbass conspiracies like flat earth "theory" and the anti-vaxx movement, mention of conspiracies can be a bit stressful.

CIA Director Gina Haspel, was speaking at Auburn University when an enraged audience member called her out in a blaze of fury. Queue up the awkward...
Life hits hard, and we all can find ourselves in need of help, amidst the chaos it throws our way.

I'm not in the business of telling people how to do their jobs, but if you're an elected official and want to instill trust in your constituents, show up with a Captain America shield.
Lan Diep proudly wore a Captain America shield on his arm while taking the oath of office this week.

So wear that shield. Your constituents will either love you or think you don't take this job seriously at all. One or the other!

@mercnews @RamonaGiwargis I'm a fan of comics too but this seemed very inappropriate. Doesn't seem like he's taking the position seriously

Queensferry Crossing in Scotland is set to open in 2017, and will be the world's longest three-tower cable-stayed bridge. Except that the bridge shared in photo by UK government is not Queensferry Crossing.
