Hi Wrecklings!
Happiest October! Is everyone getting their Halloween costumes ready?

''Toy Fair faces crisis in NYC as big manufacturers skip event, press for LA move: sources''- I feel like this would be a super fun one to go to.
''Costco is selling gold bars and they are selling out within a few hours''- I always end up bringing dumb things back from Costco/BJs but this would have been something else.
''Watch Linda Yaccarino’s wild interview at the Code Conference''- This is the greatest, most uncomfortable interview I’ve ever watched. If I’d been her publicist (if X hadn’t fired them all), I’d have pulled the fire alarm. This was the interview that had her all fired up.

''Why this Vermont town is banning influencers and tourists from visiting its fall foliage''- Come on, let’s get a little creative with finding your own picturesque spots.
''Influencer’s violent reaction to ‘world’s sourest candy’ goes viral: ‘I love pushing my limits’''- I want to know how much more sour it is compared to Warheads. Also, how damaging is that to your teeth?
''Netflix Sued Over Canceled Game Deal for Zack Snyder’s ‘Rebel Moon’ Movies''- I’m rooting for Evil Genius on this one.
''They Quit Their Jobs. Their Ex-Employers Sued Them for Training Costs.''- Companies just keep finding new ways to be comedically evil.
''Bob Baffert files lawsuit claiming extortion over allegedly 'damaging' videos''- More drama in the horse world.
