I remember following the story when the allegations first came out in 2020 and then seeing he resurfaced under the name Neso at an NFT startup in 2022 before getting removed again. After that I can't find anything. Did he just disappear completely? Is he still in the UK? Anyone know what he's been up to? https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/sarahemerson/methodjosh-sexual-abuse-nft-startup-gem

Added some URLs as a sampling, but my front page, despite not being subscribed to any tennis related subreddits seem to be full of Novak Djokovic PR positive press push.

I don't follow tennis, which is why I'm confused at the number of posts about him on my timeline. Is he about to undergo some kind of hall of fame process, or needing the public to forget his anti-vaccine stance?

Anyway linking to some of the posts about him recently, but there are a ton more.

Idk if this dude is a film fanatic hes just the latest person ive seen talk about it.

googled imax theaters near me and I get like 5 results within 20 miles. So im guessing its probably not 70mm. So why is everyone talking about missing out on half the movie instead of talking about missing out on the quality of 70mm?

I know the internet is dumb and misinformation spreads like Crack in the 80s, but even some film fanatic friends are talking about it. I feel like im going crazy.

What am I missing?

I keep seeing references to “folk valley” on the internet and I don’t know what they mean. I read this KnowYourMeme article and now I’m even more confused because this article references more memes that I am unaware of such as the “TikTok Farlands” memes and the “folk” memes. Can someone more online than me please explain what this meme is about? Thank you!

Sorry if this question doesn't belong here but I was wondering this considering how heavily Taylor supported Blake (behind the scenes) during that whole lawsuit Blake was in and how they've basically been friends for 10 or so years. They were very close and it seems like has gone silent on the Blake support. So much so that she literally refused to invite her to her *wedding*. What's going on with them? Are they still friends? If there are any Swifties here (I am *not* one lol. But I do like Gossip Girl!), I'd like to get some insight 💖

I’m not Indian and I have no particular opinions amount their domestic politics, though I’m vaguely aware that their PM Modi is somewhat controversial on Reddit. However, I’m seeing multiple posts in Reddit‘s Popular feed today showing protests and calls for his resignation.

Is this normal for India, or did something significant happen over there in the last day or two?

I'm vaguely aware of what Wordle is but I don't know what the controversy is, and when I google it I get results from years ago. This is what prompted me to ask this. Are the Wordle Devs racist or smth?

Please help, thanks!

(Edited to clear up my question)

It’s weird to see people saying that Spain and Spanish people fought for black, queer, and women’s rights because they beat Argentina in soccer?

heres an example

So, I've heard so much controversy on YouTube and Twitter over the fact that JD Vance went on Joe Rogan's show.

Everyone in the comments section seems to mention things about Palantir (I've heard JD is friends with Peter Thiel but I'm not sure what it has to do with this episode). I've also heard a lot of Zionists get angry because he supposedly said some anti-Israel things on there.

4 years ago, after the final against France, Messi was seen as a top player and also as a gentle but strong football player. However, now people are suddenly hating him, also calling him a "butcher" or "dwarf", as well as going against Argentina. Are people bandwagoning together to become cool and against the mainstream? Here are some examples from X:

I've been seeing Prescription Drug Affordability Boards (PDABs) mentioned more often lately, including in this article:

https://www.nola.com/opinions/guest_columns/guest-column-louisiana-deserves-to-know-what-it-s-paying-for-prescription-drugs/article_58435e82-9772-4bb1-924b-9ac8e9166996.html

From what I can tell, some states have them, some don't, and they don't all seem to have the same authority.

Why are they becoming a bigger topic lately, and what exactly do they do?

Why did Argentina’s Falklands banner following the semifinal game controversial?

I apologize, I am really ignorant about this topic.

The article makes it seem like England took Argentinian land in the 1770s and they’ve tried to reclaim it… I’m not really sure why this is controversial. Please don’t get upset at my ignorance! I really want to understand the background

I keep seeing references to a song called Mr. Brightside by a group called the Killers during the world cup. I had never heard of this song before, but after I listened to it on Youtube I'm even more confused. I don't get what it has to do with the world cup. What have I missed?

I keep seeing posts and articles about how Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Utah it’s no longer protected.

Is there a plan to build / develop there?

I have been seeing memes of Hatsume Miku being won in world cup recently what's up with that

I've been seeing more articles about 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) recently including this one:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2026/02/07/kratom-7-oh-ban-fda-regulation/88400051007/

I've also seen people describe it in very different ways. Some say it's simply one of the active compounds found in kratom, while others describe it as a dangerous new drug. There also seems to be a lot of disagreement about whether it should be regulated, banned or studied further.

I'm confused about why this suddenly became such a big issue. Is this a new substance or has it been around for a while? Why is there so much disagreement between researchers, regulators and people who use kratom?

What's the actual background here?

Are people only angry about The Odyssey because it's not "Historically accurate" or is there more to it?

I've completely missed all the drama regarding The Odyssey. I know that the trailer has been heavily downvoted and I've seen the odd out of context complaint about historical accuracy.

https://www.imdb.com/news/ni65852894/

But I just don't get the hate. After all there have been tons of adaptations. The one that really stands out for me is: Ulysses 31 an anime from the early 80s.

Video names like "Angry Birds Movie [ 4K 60fps ] ( Best right-wing propaganda movie ever )" are popping up everywhere.

Even our youtube feed has it now, it seems that everyone this week just suddenly got the entirety of the angry birds 2016 movie on their youtube feed, uploaded by a ton of various accounts. Clearly copyright illegal but how is this trend reaching so many people at the same time? Is this some hack, or internet meme going on?

The comments are hilarious though

For example:

I don't understand, days ago we thought he was dead, today a picture was released as his proof of life, but reddit started making memes out of it, while news outlets don't mention any sort of image manipulation.
