The new trend appears to be a riff on the popular “what if we kissed” meme from 2018, which asks what would happen if two people kissed in an unlikely situation. For example, one popular instance, according to Know Your Meme, shows a picture of the panopticon, a concept of a prison with a central viewing tower allowing guards to watch any prisoner at any time. The caption is “What would you do if we kissed in the panopticon,” along with three monkey emojis, a heart-shaped exclamation point emoji and a blushing smiley emoji....

A separate video shared by the Filipino ABS-CBN News outlet, attributed to a person named Maru Emer Hernandez Tumambing, showed a number of people in a boat approaching the volcano, with plumes of what appears to be steam visible in the background....

What is the ViFLY R220? It’s an FPV (first-person-vision) racing drone which comes ready to fly out of the box. It includes everything you need, except for FPV goggles.

It also applies to individuals in a team, coming back from the brink and in some cases, beyond it, and earning redemption. Vijay Shankar’s time with the Indian team may not have been as dramatic as other examples that cricket has to offer, but if he does find himself in the squad for the 2019 World Cup, it would be one of modern-day cricket’s mini redemption stories. Shankar’s USP is that he can come into the team as a seam-bowling all-rounder, a commodity that, other than leg spin, finds itself in extremely high demand....

But the Minnesota Vikings, the team Keenum lead to within a game of contesting the Super Bowl in their home stadium, debunked that theory on Thursday, signing Kirk Cousins to a groundbreaking three-year, $84million contract.

For Washington Redskins fans continually frustrated by Cousins’ propensity for turnovers in the biggest moments, it is a deal that will raise eyebrows....

The announcement comes a day after the Vikings lost 21-7 to the Seattle Seahawks, failing to score until the fourth quarter and going a second consecutive games without putting up 300 total yards.
