the weird thing is right that much to everyone's horror the internet and its lovely cultures now warrant discussion from a cultural antropology perspective but i cant think of any publication or website that actually does that that's not utterly poo poo at it

cracked.com is unironically better than the verge at human interest and culture stories and idk if they've ever reviewed a gadget but if so i'm 100% certain they're better than the verge at that too

because you're parked at your desk at work for 8 useless hours and sooner or later you're gonna run out of threads to read here, twitter updates, and actually competent news stories. buzzfeed, the verge, gawker, cracked, all that poo poo exists almost explicitly to target the bored 9-5 wage slave that's just waiting out the clock.

data-driven editorial means that they keep posting music/celebrity articles, pretty soon they'll be tmz with the occasional microsoft advertorial I unsubscribed from their rss but since vox bought re/code I still get links to their dumb articles

recent music recommendations from the verge dot com, popular technology site https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEI4qSrkPAs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IoedEgydRo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NywWB67Z7zQ I guess their advertisers want more teen girls on the site?
