You know, whatever it takes to get people to act. Sometimes it'd something dumb that motivates prople.

Wild. All these people had their lives ruined because of those officers. Had to live the rest of their lives in fear and burdened by a false conviction. I can't imagine going through that.

I feel like everyone has had a bad experience with one of the major delivery services and just decides to shit on them. I've had packages busted by FedEx, usps, ups, that guy that drops off packages from his unmarked van. Like I get 97% of stuff okay, but 3% comes broken from them all.

I know this is in reference to something. It's like a meme or ticktok or something.

It's because you're lying. You don't really love them. Your nose is growing.

That's insane. It sounds like ebay must have a toxic culture to let that happen.

This article is obnoxious to actually read. Its funny that these lazy companies of cheap products are trying to use ai to write their copy for them, im assuming to save a buck, and those are fun examples, but where is the part where the reporting puts this in the larger context of why this is happening? Why are these trypes of companies making these choices? What does that say about our shopping habits and the stuff we choose to buy? Idk any actual meaningful/intresting question beyond look at this things that exists on the internet. If its in there I glossed over it because they leaned into their shtick too hard.

A girlfriends life revolves around home, they have homework, home room and they run away from home to live with their 38 year old boyfriend.

He literally broke stuff

 

Found this mildly interesting in a world of slick Conde Nast publications.

 

What defines dark fantasy?

Is it just elves that wear black or is there more to it? Maybe a mood or setting? Maybe it's an antihero thing? Im curious as to what it means and what some of the defining/seminal works of dark fantasy might be.

Came across this really fun Chen Qian story that was the detective(s) looking for an android plot. The writing (and translation) makes the story really engaging and quippy with simple but satisfying world building.

I feel this follows a long line of similar story telling stemming from Asimov. I wonder how many great examples of stories like these are buried in all those old stacks of F&SF and Asimov mags out there.
