Forbes - Facebook gave Nebraska Cops a Teen's DMs so they could prosecute her for having an abortion A Nebraska teenager is facing criminal charges alleging she aborted a fetus in violation of state law, after authorities obtained her Facebook messages using a search warrant. After this story's publication, Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said in a statement on Twitter that "Nothing in the valid warrants we received from local law enforcement in early June, prior to the Supreme Court decision, mentioned abortion. The warrants concerned charges related to a criminal investigation and court documents indicate that police at the time were investigating the case of a stillborn baby who was burned and buried, not a decision to have an abortion."Stone added that Meta was prohibited from sharing information about the search warrant by non-disclosure orders which have since been lifted.

I kind of feel that this should be in the funny things thread but still...

(yes, it's fake, but still amusing)

Sandman, episode 5: 24/7. I know a lot of critics seem to be raving over it, and it's one of those ones where.. the acting is good, Thewliss being Thewliss, it all ties into the story they're working for John Dee... But at the same time it's very compressed and feels more like 3 hours rather than 24 and they lose a lot of the disturbing, creepy, horror of the story. The fan made film of that story a few years back pretty much hit the ball out of the park for that mind-bending insanity horror, and maybe that's the comparison that keeps lingering in my head. But I do think that episode 6: The Sound of Her Wings is probably my favorite one out of the batch. They have the chemistry of Death and Dream down pat, and the White Horse Pub every century for the meetings with Hob Gadling are pretty pitch perfect and carry all the emotions.

For the general snerk... Incredibly-violent 90s box office flop conquers the Disney Plus charts (msn.com) (for the spoiler, they mean Starship Troopers...)
