Inventing Anna NFTs, an IRS-ransomed $750k horse & a celeb puke shrine 👀🍿🧃

Hi Wrecklings! I’ve been watching The Deep End, a documentary series about a super controversial spiritual leader (read: ahem, cult). A fascinating but deeply disturbing watch— so proceed with caution.

  • “Daily Harvest Recalls Lentil Crumbles After Customers Allege Severe Liver Illness”- Well this is terrifying.

  • “Everything We Know About WWE's Probe Of Vince McMahon”- Early in my career, I once served cookies to Linda McMahon— her family is a force to be reckoned with, albeit one with questionable political leanings and Vince’s penchant for scandal.

  • “Taylor Frankie Paul Gets Real (Swinging, Divorce, MomTok & more)”- For those invested in the MomTok Mormon soft-swingers drama, hearing from Taylor herself is a good opportunity to get a less sensationalized account of what happened.

  • “Anna Delvey Is Swearing Off Grifting With Her Own Line of NFTs”- As an NFT-owner (I know, I know)- even I have to roll my eyes at this one. With 99.9% of NFT collections being grifts, this one is 1000% no different— which would be entirely unsurprising given who is at the helm.

  • “Meet the Self-Described ‘Bimbos’ of TikTok”- Chrissy Chlapecka’s content is amazing and definitely worth a look. Also, little late to the game NYT though, Rolling Stone covered Chrissy and this trend back in 2020.

  • “Those videos about a foot fetish site going viral on TikTok? A lot of them are sponcon”- Ah yes, marketing feat. 🥁💥

  • “1,100 Coinbase employees learned they were losing their jobs when they were locked out of their work emails. CEO Brian Armstrong said it was to 'ensure not even a single person made a rash decision that harmed the business'“- Interesting spin on why this layoff was done so poorly. It’s like when my colleagues at a previous job and I realized our boss had been let go because her Slack was deactivated… before we’d been told.

  • “A Wedding, a $750,000 Horse and the Complexity of IRS Seizures”- I love insane pieces like this, you learn so much about how absolutely bizarre things relating to mega-rich (erm, and some formerly mega-rich) people truly are.

  • “Meet the family behind 'Texas Thighs,' an account for a mom's salacious photos (when it isn't getting banned)”- Honestly, I am rooting for all the people on OnlyFans, good on them. Related— about 12 years ago, a roommate and I joked whether there’d be a way for us to make money off people watching us eat… we were clearly ahead of our time.

  • “Investigating the Harry Styles Puke Shrine With Kaitlyn Tiffany”- A fascinating sneak peek into the strange worlds of online fandoms. But let’s be serious, we already have first-hand knowledge of how weird they can get.

  • “Elon Musk’s Daughter Files to Ditch His Last Name”- But really, can you blame her? Huge kudos to her.

  • “Hailey Bieber’s Skincare Line Launch Dragged by Beauty Influencer Who Claims Star Wouldn’t Leave Her Celebrity ‘Bubble’”- Valid points in this piece but this blame 100% goes to the brand PR people and event organizers here— sounds like there was poor (or, zero…) planning on the celeb-interaction component. There should have been a speech planned or some organization about whether interviews with Hailey were going to be offered/given, and if neither were going to be doable… don’t host an event with her there.

  • “A Multimillionaire White Male Author Apologized For Talking About How Hard It Is For White Male Authors”- Oh look, another white boomer getting mad about feeling less privileged than usual. So sad 🎻🎶
