Lemme Tell You Somethin'

This week on Words With Wista, the scams are scamming, and the timeline is spiraling. We break down a $25M pyramid scheme that took thousands for a ride, influencer divorce news that didn’t shock me but sent their followers into a tailspin, and the growing dangers of parasocial relationships when people confuse internet access with real life. On the political side, the Nobel Institute says no to prize-sharing, the Smithsonian quietly edits impeachment history, Minnesota’s SNAP funding gets frozen, and world leaders reshuffle a major global meeting because a UFC fight took over the White House. Add in RFK Jr. playing nutritionist, Paramount Skydance layoffs, monkeys allegedly loose in St. Louis, Blade possibly being scrapped, and Cardi B shutting down the “revenge baby” chatter. Chaos everywhere, accountability nowhere. IG: itswista SubStack: wordswithwista
