How are we feeling, babes? 

After we spill the deets of our Book Club getaway, we dive headfirst into the week's wildest internet stories. This includes Sheer Luxe launching an AI bot as their new editor (at a time when journalists are losing jobs worldwide), and adidas pulling their latest campaign with queen, Bella Hadid. Yikes. 

Brat has been taking over our feeds but this week marks Charli XCX's foray into US politics. We discuss why nothing seems real at the moment and reference this article from Dazed by Günseli Yalcinkaya.

We also reference a newsletter from Taylor Lorenz' substack on the Pop Craveification of breaking news. 

This week, Maggie recommends the book How to End a Love Story by Yulin Kuang while Jas has been loving the Working Hard, Hardly Working Business podcast by Grace Beverley.
