The article criticizes recent media coverage portraying Mark Zuckerberg as “cool” again based on his success with Threads and a shirtless photo he posted. The author argues that Zuckerberg’s photo looks like that of a middle-aged man cheating on his wife, and that Threads’ success is questionable given it is mostly used by journalists and brands. The author concludes that despite any business success, Zuckerberg’s role in Facebook’s issues make him unlikely to ever be truly “cool”, and urges journalists to stop describing him as experiencing a “Hot Zuck Summer”.

        Do you know, roughly, how many days you have spent arguing that it’s OK to say n-word if you don’t finish it with hard r? I’m just interested, for statistics

          Exactly zero days because you can’t compare being a fatass with being racist. That’s pretty dumb
