Cape Fear

Jul 11, 2025 Daily Edition: The Politics of Krypton View on the web → Good morning Reader, Some mornings, you must know your bowl of cereal is hiding billion-dollar secrets, and today is one of those days. Meanwhile, Superman is fighting his toughest enemy yet: internet commenters, and breakfast tables across America are getting a little more Italian. So grab your coffee (and maybe some Nutella-covered Frosted Flakes?), and let’s dive into today’s lineup. P.S. Flashback subscribers—you’ve got...

Jul 10, 2025 Daily Edition: Warning: System Not Found View on the web → Good morning Reader, You know how it feels when you think you've seen it all, but Elon Musk shows up and redefines chaos before you've even had coffee? That was my morning. Twitter—sorry, X—is shaking yet again, and honestly, I’ve stopped being surprised. Musk's going to run out of executives before he runs out of ideas. Elsewhere in today’s issue, we unpack America’s broken emergency alert system, and yes, Flashback is...

Jul 9, 2025 Daily Edition: When AI Goes Rogue View on the web → Good morning Reader, Let's be honest: Yesterday, as we sifted through dull news, I got worried we'd run out of interesting stuff to talk about. But apparently, the universe heard us—and delivered. Grok, Elon Musk's AI, lost its mind, and pistachios became the internet's latest obsession. (No, seriously—nuts.) Less nutty: I've noticed online traffic has been dropping. It might be summer distractions or binge-watching...

Yeah, it turns out our ancestors' curly hair gave us a head start, shielding our developing brains from overheating millions...

Elon's New Party, Ozzy's Final Bow & Epstein's Ghost

Jul 7, 2025 Daily Edition: Welcome to Muskistan View on the web → Hey Reader, and welcome back! Hope your weekend felt longer than Elon Musk’s list of Twitter feuds. Mine sure did-partly because I spent it obsessing over our exciting news: Flashback, the quirky history section you love (and I love even more), is getting its very own newsletter! Yep, Flashback’s stepping out into the spotlight solo—but don’t worry, The Core isn’t going anywhere. It's like when your favorite character gets a...

Meta’s Multi-Billion-Dollar Bet on Ai’s Smartest Minds

Juk 3, 2025 Daily Edition: 4th of July, The Core-style 🇺🇸 View on the web → Good morning, Reader! We're keeping it short and sweet today (but not too short!), because tomorrow's Fourth of July, and like you, we're preparing for a well-deserved long weekend. Yep, that means no newsletter in your inbox for the next two days—but hey, don’t panic. I wouldn’t dream of leaving you completely Core-less. There's a special Fourth of July surprise for our Flashback fans tomorrow. Keep an eye on your...

Inside SCOTUS’s Last-Minute Shockwaves

Jun 30, 2025 Daily Edition: Supreme Ghosting View on the web → Good Monday morning Reader! I don’t know about you, but my Monday started about two hours too late, and with exactly one cup of coffee too many. Something is alarming about oversleeping on Monday mornings—it's like your alarm clock conspired with the universe to give you that extra "rest" you didn't ask for. But hey, even though the world feels like it's moving faster, we've got the stuff you need to know (and some things you...

Why the Enhanced Games is Splitting Sports?

Jun 28, 2025 Daily Edition: Make America Dope Again View on the web → Good morning, Reader, and welcome to the Weekend Edition—the best thing to hit your inbox since that unexpected tax refund.
