Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Very well, enough people have asked me to, so I’ll throw my hat in the ring: I’ll do it. I’ll be James Bond, if I must.

Right as I was getting back into tumblr they did some change to how comments work and I have zero idea how to use the site, AGAIN. I want to make posts and people comment on them and I want to comment on people’s posts and it is weird that no social media can do this.

I just learned that Star Trek TNG in Japan is called "Shin Star Trek"

A Japanese DVD of Star Trek TNG that says "Shin Star Trek" which means "New Star Trek." It amuses me because slapping "shin/new" on a title is a very common naming convention in Japan, and it's used in jokes often.

I believe it's impossible to not appreciate the incredible purple color these mushrooms have, especially when they're younger. These might be some of the prettiest specimens of Cortinarius seidliae or vanduzerensis I've come across #mushroom #fungifriends #mushrooms #cortinarius 🍄📷 📸🎞 🌿🌱 🟢 🍄 🍄‍🟫

Two mushrooms - one lying on its side and another growing out of the ground - shine in the sunlight due to their very slimy nature. These beautiful mushrooms, a species of Cortinarius, have gorgeous purple stipes and dark brown caps. They're also completely covered in a layer of slime that protects them as they grow.

I can't play games that have in game monetary transactions with real money. I just can't. It tells me that the fun is money gated even further than the price on the tin. It ain't worth it. Even if the buy in is free. Fun games are not in game money gated. Good games are not in game money gated.

Everyone agrees stuff is Worse right now, but I think it’s interesting how everyone has their own pet reason. Imo it’s a lot of all of it. Communities dissolving (humans are tribal and we just… ignore this, mostly?), economic struggles, environmental changes, all of it. It’s all of it.

These are fun and anonymity/privacy on the internet is largely impossible these days, but I can’t help but feel it’s odd that all of these trends target personal, identifying information. “Tag this with the street you grew up on to make your stripper name!
