As the Twitter meltdown continues to unfold, Elon Musk has just excused a Staff Software Engineer — who dared to speak out against his rhetoric — via Twitter.

What is real these days? Is this post real? Am I real? Or am I just an algorithm trained to harvest content and write pseudo-intellectual sentences? These days who can really be certain? Especially with the rise of viral marketing, side-hustling, and clout chasers. I mean, just yesterday, I saw a content creator calling out another content creator who has created a persona that centers around being a “family man” and is selling a Hustlers University-inspired program teaching you to be a better…

Your first job in the service industry (or retail, I'd argue) is a formative experience. For most of us, it comes at that time in our life when earning some cash is a necessity: Maybe you've just graduated high school or college and need a job; maybe you're still in high school; maybe the career you thought you were going to have as an Olympic level athlete didn't quite work out, and now you have no idea what you're doing with your life. Ignoring the fact that the last example is oddly specific…

In case you missed it, in the last hour, Nintendo has finally slid the curtain back on the Super Mario Bros. Movie by releasing a teaser trailer that totaled 2:29 in length. This small glimpse has (predictably) caused an explosion of reactions on Twitter, where the movie has been hotly anticipated. There has been much debate on the platform surrounding the direction the movie will take, which took a worrying turn when the movie's eclectic voice-acting cast was unveiled. Fans were concerned with…

We'd like to take this chance to remember and memorialize ‘The Queue’ an inordinately long endless stretch of outstandingly ordered persons that demonstratively indicates we have likely reached the penultimate peak of British society. No this isn't about the memorial for the queen herself but rather a memorial to memorialize the sensation that has now passed in the form of “The Queue” as it remains in our hearts and minds. "The Queue" as it has been dubbed both on the internet and in the wider…

This woman tweeted a screenshot of a message she received on a dating app roasting her for the duration that she has been on dating apps. The match recognized her from years (and matches) past and didn't hesitate to call her out. “I've seen you on dating apps for years now. You crazy or something?” the message challenged. While it's true that prolonged or repeated presence is an indicator of a lack of success, there can be a wild variety of reasons for that. Plus, two can play at that game. As…

“Cheating in video games should be illegal," tweeted Pro Gamer and Streamer, Tfue, sparking debate in this trending Twitter thread. Tfue, the online alias of American streamer Turner Tenney, is best known as one of the standout talents from the height of the Fortnite craze.

It's been a long, long time since we've talked about Logan Paul. Like many of you, I chose to pretend that he and his brethren don't exist. I ultimately gave up even pretending to harbor an ironic dislike for the guy after the whole “Suicide Forest” incident in Japan at the start of 2018. Since that incident, he is and has been, a nothingness to me. Fast forward to 2021. Well, a lot has happened since that time and I found myself reflecting this morning upon a tastefully thought-out criticism o…

This former Subway “Sandwich Artist” took to Twitter on Monday to share their experience with an unfortunate individual who intentionally ordered a “questionable sandwich” that would haunt their nightmares. They note in their initial tweet that kick-started the thread that they “sincerely worry about the person who ordered it.” The story was told by @pb_and_garlic who shared their story in the form of a Twitter thread or what we used to refer to here as a “Live Tweet" (are we still using that?)…

So it's not 102 Dalmatians.

A meeting of the minds.

Presenting: The Yeezy Slide and, just like anything Kanye has created since My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, I don't care for it. These absurd pieces of footwear have been trending on the internet this week thanks to a restock of shoes that were released. The Slide was sold through a raffle-based system that has been notoriously plagued by bots and scripts buying up available stock for aftermarket resale. To further add to the pain of would-be Slide owners, the webpage that the drawing was be…

This question just brings so many more questions. Who knew there were so many different ways to hold that thing?? Social media is coming through and providing the answers

AKA: Why people can feel like someone hates them if they don't get a text back right away. It's at least helpful in life to be able to put a name to a phenomenon most people have felt or witnessed. In this case it's the need for reassurance people can feel even when nothing wrong has actually really occurred. It's interesting, but also, take psychological insight from the internet with a grain of salt, because it's a big internet and everyone is different. For more psychological insight from th…
