    Naked man attempts to dig out truck stuck in riverbed near Calgary park
    https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/naked-man-attempts-to-dig-out-truck-stuck-in-riverbed-at-weaselhead-flats
    It’s said that a naked man fears no pickpocket — but he should probably still be wary of riverbeds. A video making the rounds on Twitter on Wednesday morning shows a man — fully nude except for a pair of boots — attempting to dislodge his Dodge Ram from the bed of the Elbow River or a stream near Weaselhead Flats, a protected natural area located west of the Glenmore Reservoir near the ring road and Calgary’s western city limits.

    What Happens When You Die? Unlike Most People, I Know. I Even Have Video.

    I dropped dead during a hockey game. I couldn’t remember anything. Then I discovered there was video. I was morbidly thrilled: I had lived long enough to watch myself die.

    https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/05/federal-judge-makes-history-holding-border-searches-cell-phones-require-warrant
    With United States v. Smith (S.D.N.Y. May 11, 2023), a district court judge in New York made history by being the first court to rule that a warrant is required for a cell phone search at the border, “absent exigent circumstances” (although other district courts have wanted to do so).

    https://www.stereogum.com/2225544/cedric-bixler-zavala-responds-to-danny-masterson-guilty-verdict-fuck-scientology/news/
    Mars Volta lead singer Cedric Bixler-Zavala has some words for the Church Of Scientology. Today, a jury found disgraced That ’70s Show actor Danny Masterson (and longtime Scientologist) guilty of two out of three counts of rape in a Los Angeles retrial. “I’ll be making a list of all Danny’s helpers and rape apologists to show all of you why women don’t report rape,” wrote Bixler-Zavala, who left the church in 2017 after joining in 2009. His wife, Chrissie Carnell-Bixler, was one of four women who accused Masterson of drugging, raping, and sexually assaulting them in the early 2000s. Bixler-Zavala also testified against Masterson in 2022.

    AI Deepfakes of True-Crime Victims Are a Waking Nightmare
    https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/true-crime-tiktok-ai-deepfake-victims-children-1234743895/
    “Grandma locked me in an oven at 230 degrees when I was just 21 months old,” the cherubic baby with giant blue eyes and a floral headband says in the TikTok video. The baby, who speaks in an adorably childish voice atop the plaintive melody of Dylan Mathew‘s “Love Is Gone,” identifies herself as Rody Marie Floyd, a little girl who lived with her mother and grandmother in Mississippi. She recounts that one day, she was hungry and wouldn’t stop crying, prompting her grandmother to put her in the oven, leading to her death. “Please follow me so more people know my true story,” the baby says at the end of the video.

    Maryland License Plates Now Inadvertently Advertising Filipino Online Casino
    https://www.vice.com/en/article/4a3xe9/maryland-license-plates-now-inadvertently-advertising-filipino-online-casino
    Roughly 800,000 Maryland drivers with license plates designed to commemorate the War of 1812 are now inadvertently advertising a website for an online casino based in the Philippines. In 2012, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812, Maryland redesigned its standard license plate to read “MARYLAND WAR OF 1812.” The license plates, which were the default between 2012 and 2016, have the URL www.starspangled200.org printed at the bottom. Sometime within the last year, www.starspangled200.org stopped telling people about how Marylander Francis Scott Key was inspired to write the national anthem “The Star Spangled Banner” after watching British ships bombard Fort McHenry in Baltimore during the War of 1812 and started instead redirecting to a site called globeinternational.info, in which a blinking, bikini-clad woman advertises "Philippines Best Betting Site, Deposit 100 Receive 250."

    New York City's Gigantic Public Art Failure
    https://www.governing.com/infrastructure/new-york-citys-gigantic-public-art-failure
    Since the Vessel was designed for people to climb and clamor over, engineers took pains to stabilize the lattice of stairs, making it immune to both the wind and overactive visitors. Unbalanced-load scenarios were considered, such as when a concert or other event would cause all of the occupants to stand on one side or the other, or move up and down in unison. What they failed to consider was how easy it would be for some visitors to jump to their deaths.
