Cancer-causing Band-Aids, $25 boiled eggs & chili crunch battle 👀🍿🧃

Hi Wrecklings!

This week has some dude suing the uh… Fleshlight for not working as it’s advertised to.

Highlighting two headlines under “WTF, the audacity of big brands”.

• “Cancer-causing forever chemicals found in BAND-AIDS where they can get directly into blood through open wounds, report warns”- No comment.

• “Taste testing viral influencer snacks, beverages so you don’t have to”- The negative infinity is incredible.

• “Amazon's Just Walk Out technology relies on hundreds of workers in India watching you shop”- ARE YOU KIDDING ME.

• “8 men allegedly ran a beer heist ring that stole Corona and Modelo worth hundreds of thousands”- 1) love that they inspected the beer before selling 2) that FBI agent’s quote didn’t have the vibe he think it did

• “Coach sues Gap for allegedly selling 'Coach' T-shirts”- I wish the article included photos because that feels like a stretch.

• “JoJo Siwa Accused Of "Stealing" TikTok Influencer's Song—Here's What We Know”- Huge fan of the original artist, her song Cinderella’s Dead is an incredible bop.

• “‘Trademark bully’: Momofuku turns up heat on others selling ‘chili crunch’”- This is just incredibly awful of him.

• “Here's How Generative AI Depicts Queer People”- Out of this whole article, I’m also struggling to understand how the writer sees the politician-one as having “frizzy” hair…

• “New York City's new Gilded Age- For Wall Street's elite, dining out is suddenly louder and more extravagant than ever.”- $25 hard-boiled eggs? Ew.

• “Why the Influencer Industry Needs Guardrails”- Surprising that this isn’t the case yet.

• “Todrick Hall Created a GoFundMe Account and Some Fans Are Furious”- I see where they’re coming from.
