Shark Tank scandal, wood milk & sad Tamagotchi wannabes 👀🍿🧃
Hi Wrecklings!
I’m watching the new Secrets of Hillsong documentary on Hulu and I’d highly recommend it.
“Multibillion-dollar Santa Monica fitness company faces allegations of exploiting exercise coaches”- I wonder if the outcome of this lawsuit will impact other MLMs…
''Couple's nine-year legal battle after buying £1.5m Cornish mansion only to find it stripped''- I can’t even imagine the horror of this realization upon opening the front door to the new home.
''A lawsuit against DoorDash alleges what some users have long suspected: the company charges Apple users more than Android owners''- There’s a premium for our blue chat bubbles.
“House-flipping influencer and life coach hit with hefty fines in bogus $400 million training program”- Of course, Tony Robbins makes an appearance in this article.
''This $6 million Las Vegas bunker is still looking for a buyer. It's 26 feet underground, decorated like the 1970s, and owned by a foundation that wants to freeze humans for science.''- This headline took an unexpected turn.
''Disney Is Closing Its Immersive Star Wars Hotel, A Year After Opening''- So rich-people-who-love-Star-Wars was too small of a customer niche.
''A CEO deactivated her Instagram after facing immense backlash for announcing she 'restructured' her social media team, forcing other employees to contribute to those roles''- And she’s actively created more work for her poor PR team

''Google’s Plan to Delete Inactive Accounts Shows the Internet Isn't Forever''- Aww, this makes me a bit sad.
''Aubrey Plaza Is the Unfortunate New Face of the Milk Wars''- Can’t believe we missed this drama a few weeks ago! Bad move by Big Milk.
''Court orders Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes to go to prison''- I’ll believe it when it happens.
''The James Beard Foundation’s Ongoing Drama, Explained''- If disqualifying a chef for yelling is a thing, no chef will ever qualify.
''Mom-fluencers' are cashing in on lucrative brand deals – but not without some controversy''- I’m adding this to my watch queue.
''Nevada Man Faces Decades in Prison After Feds Charge Him in Alleged $45,000,000 Crypto Scheme''- I’ll never understand how these people believe this will end well for them.
''Mobile pet game Peridot is an adorable, expensive ruse''- Ok, this looks absolutely adorable but doesn’t sound worth the download.
''I Asked ChatGPT To Control My Life, and It Immediately Fell Apart''- This is like reading about a real-life Sim.
🔏“Ex-NFL player thought ‘Shark Tank’ would launch his barbecue empire. It became a nightmare, he says”- Not the first time Shark Tank has been covered for being sneaky but this is certainly the largest piece I’ve seen.
