Justice Clarence Thomas Might Actually Face Consequences For Undisclosed Luxury Yacht And Private Jet Travel It would seem Supreme Court corruption is untouchable, but last week Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) introduced a formal request to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland for the opening of an investigation into Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. Separately, this week, Rep. Alexandria… Read more…

Stuck in “poor” mindset or actually poor? Need advice. I grew up in what I thought was a middle class family, with what I thought was a good work ethic and some degree of financial literacy. I started working at 15, always kept a $1k cushion in savings, took out loans for college, and eventually started my own business where I take around a 60k salary. Considering this is around what all of my frien…

The UK politician accused of being AI is actually a real person Image: The VergeMark Matlock, a political candidate for the right-wing Reform UK party, clarified in The Independent that he is a real person, not an AI bot, as some suspected.

What does “remaster” mean in the context of a song? Like what actually is being done to make the song better than the older original version? I see this occasionally with older song. Like Juicy by Notorious BIG has a Juicy – 2007 Remaster on Spotify. Is it better than the original version? If so, how? What have they done to the song? I’ve always wondered this. Thanks! submitted by /u/whaloo

Did Cab Calloway actually dislike the Blues Brothers? Blues brothers is one of my all time favorite movies, and Minnie the Moocher is something I listen to on repeat. Recently I saw a few comments under related posts saying that Calloway actually disliked being in the Blue Brothers, specifically his Minnie the Moocher performance, but I haven’t been able to find shred of evidence that this is true….

Zelensky’s Wife Didn’t Actually Buy A Bugatti Tourbillon Despite Russian Propaganda Claims If you’ve been forced to spend time around conservatives at any point in the last several years, you’re probably aware that they live in a completely different version of reality than normal people.

McLaren Just Can’t Stop Firing IndyCar Drivers, They Love It Actually The Arrow McLaren IndyCar team will replace Alexander Rossi with Danish driver Christian Lundgaard at the end of the 2024 season, ending the 2016 Indy 500 winner’s two-year tenure in Papaya orange colors. The move is an interesting one, as Rossi clearly still has the drive and talent (though maybe not the luck) needed… Read more…

Anybody actually take DJ Khaled seriously? Me and everybody i’ve ever talked to about Khaled unanimously thinks of him as a joke. He’s the Wonderwall of rappers, horrible flow and rhythm. He’s become a meme because of how embarrassing he is- from the shitty ad-libs to more recent videos of him “playing” a Marley guitar gifted to him. I’d also heard he stole his rapper identity from someb…

Is “That 90’s Show” season 2 editing actually bad? I don’t particularly remember the editing of That 90s Show season 1 being good or bad. I think it was OK, it was functional, but damn, season 2 has a lot of these really weird cuts all over the place. Have you watched it? Do you like it so far? submitted by /u/TheNaviBowie

How do you actually, properly save up for a vacation? I really want to try and go on an Alaskan cruise by myself sometime next year (I don’t have anyone to go with). But, while I can probably afford the amount needed for an initial deposit, I don’t know how to actually make a budget for said trip. I’ve never planned a vacation before. Should I create a new savings account with my bank and put a lit…

What’s your favorite “actually a good person” plot twist? We’ve seen plenty of plot twist where a seemingly good guy was revealed to be actually a bad guy all along. Is there any opposite example of this? Where someone was teased to be a bad guy but later on it was revealed that they were actually a good guy? One of the most famous example of this is probably in the movie Terminator 2 (and also in the…

What lead singers were actually the least important band member? Typically you can imagine the singer writing vocals, the lead guitarist writing the music but I’m sure there are plenty of examples where the drummer contributed more to a bands output than the ones on the bedroom wall posters. submitted by /u/BarryTownCouncil

How one of the biggest political TikTokers actually makes a living I met Vitus “V” Spehar — the face behind Under the Desk News — a year ago in Washington, DC. I was on location with The Verge filming the TikTok senate hearing along with interviews with senators and content creators for a Verge video about the looming ban. And when we interviewed V outside of the Capitol, V said that TikTok was useful for chann…
