This writer’s Twitter thread about his stay in a creepy log cabin is the stuff of nightmares

sudshr47 March 26, 2019

Log cabins are a bit of a problem for writers.

On the one hand, they make pretty great places for a nice retreat — somewhere quiet and out of the way where you can really focus on that latest project. On the other hand, they’re scary as hell.

This is something Tom Taylor — Marvel and DC Comics writer and creator of TV series The Deep — recently discovered firsthand.

Taylor is currently working on a bunch of different projects: Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man for Marvel, DCeased for DC Comics (a horror book which sounds very appropriate in this case) and a feature film. To get his head down and focus, he decided to spend a few nights in a log cabin in the Australian bush. Read more…

The flat stomach meme will probably just make you hungry

sudshr47 March 25, 2019

Apparently nobody on Twitter knows what a human body looks like.

The flat stomach meme is a horrifying ASCII attempt at depicting a side profile of someone’s body. What it lacks in anatomical accuracy it makes up for in personal attacks.

The meme started late last week, when Twitter user @itsJWolfe tweeted emoji of all the beautifully delicious things they’ve eaten. Who needs a flat stomach when you can fill your body with bread and cheese? It’s 2019 and we’re all here to enjoy life.

Me: I want a flat stomach

Twitter cliques might feel like high school, but their existence is tied to our human nature

sudshr47 March 25, 2019

It will come as no surprise to anyone, but I was not cool in high school. Not even a little bit.

Now that I’m a 30-year-old human masquerading as a grownup, I had hoped I’d put my desires to be part of the cool crowd to bed long ago. But years after this angst-ridden festival of self-consciousness, I have become uncomfortably reacquainted with the feeling of being on the outside of the clique.

Over a decade since I put high school well and truly behind me, I now inhabit a virtual one. And I’d be lying if I said that I don’t feel a pang of those teenage feelings — of thinking I’m on the outskirts of Cool Town — anytime I scroll through my Twitter feed. Read more…

The ethics of internet culture: a conversation with Taylor Lorenz

sudshr47 March 24, 2019

Taylor Lorenz was in high demand this week. As a prolific journalist at The Atlantic and about-to-be member of Harvard’s prestigious Nieman Fellowship for journalism, that’s perhaps not surprising. Nor was this the first time she’s had a bit of a moment: Lorenz has already served as an in-house expert on social media and the […]

Tesla CEO Elon Musk argued Friday that his Twitter use did not violate a settlement agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and that the agency’s request to have him held in contempt is based on a “radical interpretation” of the order, according to court papers filed in Manhattan federal court.

Hillary Clinton replies to AOC’s take down of Jared Kushner and we all need a minute

sudshr47 March 22, 2019

Brace yourself: AOC and Hillary Clinton have joined forces on Twitter to created a clapback so powerful that you may need to take a some deep breaths to compose yourself.

It went down on Thursday night, when Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted a very straightforward “But his WhatsApp,” after it was alleged that Jared Kushner had been communicating with foreign officials using WhatsApp.

But his WhatsApp https://t.co/kLO3ZHvdbO

— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 22, 2019

Kushner’s behavior is obviously problematic on any number of levels, not least of which is that his father-in-law, President Donald Trump, ran his campaign against Hillary Clinton almost exclusively on the charge that she’d used a private email server while she was secretary of stateLock her up, etc. Read more…

Woman asks Tinder for tech support with her Wii, and it actually worked

sudshr47 March 21, 2019

Turns out that sometimes, Tinder is good for something other than unsolicited dick pics and catfishing.

Twitter user @meggzsalad was having a bit of a struggle with her Wii when the images on-screen were only showing in black and white. Instead of frantically Googling or sifting through multitudes of tech support forum responses from 2011, she reached out for help to an unlikely source — men on Tinder.
