Friday Links!
It's dark article this week, my friends.
A complex and tragic story: ‘She was almost a Batman figure’: Mexico’s avenging Mother Courage.
Of course it's sketchy. Everything having to do with these people is sketchy: The men behind Trump’s $3.47 gas: An NFL coach, a GOP fundraiser and two New Jersey brothers.
Incredible: On This Nearly Deserted Alaska Island, You Pay to Keep Hundreds of Empty Buildings Wired for Internet.
Man, REALLY dark this week: 20 years after his wife fell to her death in Utah, a youth pastor’s story unravels.
And it keeps going: Our Plastic-Surgery Nightmare: As cosmetic procedures become both more invisible and more extreme, our connection to reality is fraying.
An amazing story: Elite Young Runners Are Becoming Freakishly Fast. Welcome to ‘Trackflation’.
From Guitar Enthusiast and Advisor David G., and it's another tale of corporate predation: Your Cookware Got Worse on Purpose.
From Wally, and it's a deep, dark dive into an important figure in the history of science fiction: The Tragedy of John W. Campbell (1910-1971). This should be no surprise (there's a level of precision and attention to detail I can't imagine existing anywhere else but Japan): I tried Starbucks in Japan as a Canadian and there are some major differences.
