One notable effect of the internet is that the question “Whatever happened to so-and-so?” is all too easy to answer. And, more often than not, you’ll realize you shouldn’t have asked.

“This song may be the single best thing to come out of 2022,” tweeted one fan. “It’s breaking me how good this is,” wrote another. “This is not safe for work, but you should just quit your job and watch it,” a third recommended. All had shared a link to an electrifying, somewhat poorly dubbed
Back in April, actor Dylan O’Brien tweeted two words: “slut era.” It was a season, apparently, of great potential — like “Hot Girl Summer” and “Hot Vax Summer” before it. But while the announcement of a slut era filled us with hope for a long, sunny, sweaty debauch, life once again got in the way.

From Weird Science to Bella Porch’s “Build a Bitch,” there’s no shortage of stories about people using technology to fulfill a fantasy.

Nobody would want their sexts entered into the public record, and thankfully, most of us will never suffer that humiliation. But if you’re Adam Levine, the married frontman of Maroon 5 who “crossed the line” (his words) in conversations with Instagram model Sumner Stroh, you might reasonably expect those lewd messages to leak at some
It wouldn’t be an internet discussion surrounding feminism and body politics if it didn’t involve everyone’s favorite: Emrata.

Corporate culture comes from the top in America. At least that’s the platonic ideal. How a company sets its global image, how it treats its employees, what it values — that all starts in the so-called C-suite. In some companies, that ethos can be found in a single man — they are almost always men
