“Designer Babies Are Teenagers Now—and Some of Them Need Therapy Because of It”- Yikes, this brings up so many things I didn’t even consider.
“Furious fans slam mommy influencer for 'outrageous' picture: 'Why would you post this?'“- I know very little about babies and even I cringed.

“Aleysha Ortiz, CT high school grad who can’t read, sues Hartford”- How is this even possible??
“Klarna CEO says the company stopped hiring a year ago because AI 'can already do all of the jobs'“- Gross, no wonder the job market is trash.

More niche-techy drama:
“What we know about the mysterious drones reported over the East Coast”- TL;DR- not much.
