Kanye made a “Betrayal List,” and somehow it includes Hitler, Curious George, and his own daughter. We don’t know what’s going on either.

This week we’re talking about:

•Britney Spears posting a bunch of Orthodox Jewish men for Rosh Hashanah and just writing “I like the beard”

•The new AI necklace called Friend that talks to you like a therapist and might actually take your job

•Ice Cube’s tour bus getting bombed because people thought it belonged to ICE (yes, really)

•A guy arrested for “not having s**” on a moving truck

•Kim Jong-Un banning the words “hamburger” and “ice cream”

• Influencers renting fake private jets and buying $10K receipts to look rich online

• And a very bleak TikTok trend that might be the saddest thing we’ve ever seen

Basically: the internet had another meltdown and we’re just here talking through it like normal people.

The internet really outdid itself this week. A YouTube pastor swore the rapture was scheduled, Bumble’s founder is facing messy old allegations while pitching AI dating, and a Phillies fan stole a foul ball from a kid—only for the mob to go after the wrong woman.

Also on the scroll: Bill Belichick’s girlfriend filing a Gold Digger™ trademark, an ex–NFL player caught in the most cursed elevator cam moment imaginable, and a $100k visa panic that had tech workers scrambling before the White House backtracked.

It’s chaos out there—luckily we scroll so you don’t have to.

This week on The Doomscroll Diaries, we’re spiraling over the weirdest mix of stories the internet threw at us. Burning Man wasn’t just dust storms and chaos - someone was actually murdered, and the rumors around it are getting darker by the day. Over in LA, Cardi B turned her $24M lawsuit into a full-blown circus, with testimony moments that felt more like a reality show than a courtroom. Then there’s Taylor Swift officially cutting off Blake Lively for good, which honestly feels harsher than any breakup she’s ever written about. Oh, and Sydney Sweeney is dating Scooter Braun now, which has people calling 2025 her villain era. Add in a little Taco Bell AI meltdown and Amanda Knox doing stand-up, and you’ve got the most cursed scroll of the week
