Maddie Kowalski was 19 years old when anonymous men on X posted a pornographic video of her without her consent. It went viral nationally, and was viewed 8.5 million times. For months, she had no idea who did it or why. So she made it her mission to find out. 🧵

Well @misstessowen has been at @WIRED for like two seconds and she already got an amazing scoop about the new White House press secretary doing affiliate marketing for a wellness MLM lol wired.com/story/white-house-…

White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia Was an Affiliate Marketer for a Fitness MLM

Trump’s newly installed press secretary tells WIRED that in the early 2010s, she promoted a product for a company then called Beachbody, which she described as “sort of a pyramid scheme.”

NEW from me: AI-generated hot girls are stealing comedians’ jokes and getting millions of views — and Instagram says it's totally allowed. I investigated horny AI content farms for @WIRED, and TLDR: we should all be very concerned. wired.com/story/ai-generated…

AI-Generated Hot Girls Are Ripping Off Comedians to Boost Their Horny Content

A network of AI-generated models is using comics’ material to funnel views to their OnlyFans and Fanvue accounts—and there’s not much comedians can do about it.

With all the Kelly Clarkson discourse no one is brave enough to say that there shouldn’t be an adult magic store in Brooklyn that sells a $40k animatronic bird in the first place. Like why is that allowed

Apparently on October 2, right after the Jane Doe gang rape allegations/Cornell Seven story broke nationally, some dude registered the domain for JaneDoeMerch.com and said the proceeds would go to support Jane Doe's legal fund. Guess what? Her lawyer knows nothing about it.

You can read my @WIRED story about the thriving market for Jane Doe merch, and the commodification of others' trauma, here: wired.com/story/meet-the-ven…

Meet the Vendors Selling ‘Cornell Seven’ Merch

Brands, influencers, and Etsy sellers claim they're hawking T-shirts, mugs, and buttons out of solidarity with the woman who accused seven male classmates of sexual assault. Some say it’s shameless.

That Wired article from last week paired with the Cornell 7 case, and the tweets in defense of the 7 really show that the burnerverse is not some niche, sub-sect of social media, but fueled by every day men on Twitter.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville recently went on an unhinged rant about how "many airline pilots" are "part of the furry community." He wasn't totally wrong — there ARE a surprisingly high number of furries in aviation, and the reasons why are super interesting! I investigated for @WIRED:

Read the story here: it has to do with transportation special interests, furry con culture, and a talking Italian cartoon pig wired.com/story/furry-airlin…

Furry Airline Pilots Are Just Minding Their Own Business

“We’re furries at home, and we’re airline pilots at work, and these are two separate things,” says one member of the community in response to senator Tommy Tuberville's recent rant.
