Y’all hear about this?..

• ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 will not be set in high school. Instead, it will take place in the mind of a man too old to be watching it.

• Elon Musk asked a SpaceX employee to have his babies. To make matters worse, he did so via intercom.

  

• The Oklahoma Supreme Court dismissed a lawsuit seeking reparations for the Tulsa Race Massacre — and instead instead have the two remaining survivors one “I Survived The Tulsa Race Massacre And All I Got Was This Stupid Shirt” to share.

• NASA says it accidentally sent out an emergency signal meant for training purposes. Which we all know is code for: Elon Musk asked another employee to have his babies.

Finally…

• Sony Pictures has acquired Alamo Drafthouse Cinema. That’s right, the company that keeps making Venom movies finally understands that you probably need to order a few beers to get through them.
