        Futurism’s are particularly egregious. It exists to get clicks, and I mean in a way that clearly none of its writers give a single shit.

        This headline and story in particular are okay enough, but in general, Futurism will take scraps and turn it into “[x person/business/industry our readerbase doesn’t like] is literally shitting its pants and DYING”.

      I’ll admit it made me slightly giddy for a few seconds.

      I needed those seconds though, so I’ll take em.
