You could find the "It" girls... smoking illicitly inside the Beatrice Inn with the Olsens (and now doing ketamine at Paul's Cocktail Lounge); dancing to the Smiths at Sway; watching a basketball game with Jay-Z at 40/40 Club; brunching al Prune; nibbling on fries at Pastis; renting out Lucien for their birthdays; posing against the white brick wall at Misshapes; checking style.com, purple.fr, and lastnightsparty.com first thing the next morning; making out with a Stroke at Black and White; walking in a Heathereffe show; ending up in a Ryan McGinley photo; on theme at Allison Sarofim's Halloween party; at the Odeon (again) for Chanel dinner; rushing in their Manolos lo a Cinema Society screening.

Cory Kennedy

The internet made her and unmade her.

By Brock Colyar

CORY KENNEDY has a hard time looking at the photos that made her famous—the shots in which she’s a tipsy teenager at parties with the Olsens and Lindsay Lohan and Steve Aoki. There’s one that is particularly well known among those who remember who she is in which she’s squatting on the sidewalk, looking elfin and disheveled, smoking a cigarette. When I bring it up recently, she declares, “That’s not the person I am today,” balling one of her hands up in a fist and struggling through a sudden-onset stutter. “It’s me screaming out for safety. It’s not just an image of me partying. It’s me looking for the ground. A pose I became famous for, ironically.”

Kennedy might have been the internet’s first “It” girl. She rocketed from teenage anonymity to virality after becoming a muse of sorts to the party photographer Mark Hunter, a.k.a. the Cobrasnake, at the time only her second serious boyfriend. But unlike the influencers who followed in her wake, she never really felt she was in charge of her own image and never really cashed in on it either.

Drowning in Slop - A thriving underground economy is clogging the internet with AI garbage-and it's only going to get worse.

Drowning in Slop - A thriving underground economy is clogging the internet with AI garbage-and it's only going to get worse.

SLOP started seeping into Neil Clarke's life in late 2022. Something strange was happening at Clarkesworld, the magazine. Clarke had founded in 2006 and built into a pillar of the world of speculative fiction. Submissions were increasing rapidly, but “there was something off about them,” he told me recently. He summarized a typical example: “Usually, it begins with the phrase ‘In the year 2250-something’ and then it goes on to say the Earth’s environment is in collapse and there are only three scientists who can save us. Then it describes them in great detail, each one with its own paragraph. And then—they’ve solved it! You know, it skips a major plot element, and the final scene is a celebration out of the ending of Star Wars.” Clarke said he had received “dozens of this story in various incarnations.”

The City Politic- The Other Eric Adams Scandal The NYPD shot a fare evader, a cop, and two bystanders. He defends it.

On Sunday, September 15, Derell Mickles hopped a turnstile, got asked to leave by cops, then entered the subway again ten minutes later through an emergency exit. This was at the Sutter Avenue L station, out by his mother's house, five stops from the end of the line. Police said they noticed he was holding a folded knife. They followed him up the stairs to the elevated train, asking him 38 times to drop the weapon.
