âPatrick Mahomes, Megachurch Leaders And Celebrities Boosted Obscure Crypto Company Claiming To Be Worth $15 Billionâ- This is one of thought delightful articles about an insane but not at all surprising massive griftâ sprinkled with weird.
âPhiladelphia Cream Cheese Is Clapping Back Against NYC's Bagel Tax With A Limited-Time Offeringâ- I canât tell if this is a joke or not.
âBamboozle, N.J.âs most famous music festival, plagued by fan uproar, refund demandsâ- Fyre Fest but make it Jersey!
''A TikToker who enraged people with videos of her rejecting food and being kicked out of restaurants admitted they're all fake''- I feel immediately suspicious (or sus, as the kids say) when someone describes themselves with "people that know me know I'm the nicest person ever."

''Why Barbieâs Best Friend Midge Was Once Removed From Shelves''- She was certainly one of the more interesting Barbies.
''People On TikTok Are Warning Others Not To Wear Aquaphor In The Sun. We Asked Experts If Lip Sunburns Are A Thing.''- I am very thankful to TikTok for teaching me a ton of things I probably should have already known. Like how to hold up taco shells with a fork.
''The Suspected Military Documents Leaker Was Caught Partly Because He Searched The Word âLeakâ''- âŚthis whole story is concerning for our country.
''Fake Drakes And Counterfeit Kanyes: The Internet Is Suddenly Full Of AI-Generated Hip-Hop''- The speed of AIâs increasing sophistication feels a little concerning.
âOne in four brides wear Davidâs Bridal to their wedding. Now, itâs filing for bankruptcyâ- And Party City⌠which feels slightly less surprising.
