  • Andrew is looking forward to his first cruise in the next few weeks, but he's tempted to cancel and instead go on The Villa Vie Residence cruise, a 4-year journey starting next year. Why ever might it be timed for 4 years?? Seriously though, what does going on a 4-year cruise actually accomplish if you're unhappy about politics at home? No, this isn't a headline from The Onion: satirical magazine The Onion bought Alex Jones' InfoWars and all of its properties at auction. Bankrupt and without his usual grifter influence, Jones and his lackeys at the company that produces the supplements he hawks are crying foul over the sale. The Onion plans to shut down Infowars and relaunch it with internet humorists, likely to parody the types of extreme right-wing grifters the Alex Jones model inspires. What could Alex Jones do next - he still has a massive following on his personal social accounts, but his venues are somewhat limited at this point to X and Truth Social. Andrew has a dramatic announcement: he is departing Twitter after 17 years on the platform. Laura plans to too, but not before Andrew attempts to find some problematic tweets. Like many, he has migrated to BlueSky after the election, having had enough of Elon's BS. What to like about BlueSky? It's like Twitter before Twitter became shitty! How long will that last? We're not sure, but we're here to enjoy the ride! If you've left Twitter recently, know you're not alone: daily usage of the app is down in the US and UK, and many hundreds of thousands have departed since Elon Musk acquired the app. This week's recommendations are a grab bag: Scrivener (Pam), Christmas Tree Hugger, and 'Arcane' season 2 on Netflix (Laura). And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon: Listener Sonia shares a hilarious Minnesota road rage story in light of last week's After Dark. Thanks Sonia! Pam explains one of the lastest TikTok movements, 'underconsumptioncore' where influences are trying to get their followers to buy LESS junk online. Great idea, right? Unfortunately, we are all still easily influenced: we come clean about what we've bought off the TikTok shop, and whether we've been happy or disappointed by what we received.
