Substance in Houston ICE shooting van was not drugs, district attorneyâs office says testing confirms (r/news)
- edingerc: The search warrant was requested and granted after the victim was already dead. Since this attempt failed, I’m sure they will look into the victim’s high school records to see if they ever had detention. It’s the old, “if you can’t justify, deflect.”
- unhiddenninja: Even if they were drugs, that’s not a fuckin death sentence on the spot. I’m glad the record is clear, though.
- HotBrownFun: Right wing MO. Put out lies first, gets all the headlines on TV, nobody bothers reading the corrections…
What are some of the scariest internet rabbit holes you’ve gone down? (r/AskReddit)
- maddie-irl: The search for the MH370 flight. I went in expecting a simple answer and came out three hours later with 40 tabs open and even more questions
- BazingaBazongas: The more I read about cults, the less I think Iâd be immune to joining one. You start out thinking, âHow could anyone fall for that?â Then you learn about sleep deprivation, isolation, love bombing, sunk-cost fallacy, and gradual escalation. Itâs way less about intelligence than timing and vulnerability. That rabbit hole was genuinely unsettling.
- ENDLESSFIRST251: Back in 2012, a mysterious group started posting ultra complex puzzles across 4chan, deep web sites, and even physical locations worldwide (posters taped to streetlights in Tokyo, Paris, and LA). To this day, nobody knows for sure who was behind it or what the actual end goal was whether it was high-level intelligence recruitment, a secret society, or something far weirder.

What was a rule in your household growing up that you didn’t realize was weird until you moved out? (r/AskReddit)
- abnormal2004: It wasn’t after moving out, but in third grade I spent the night at friend’s house. The next morning her mother served us cereal for breakfast. After I ate mine she asked me if I wanted more. I told her I already ate mine. She asked me again if I wanted more. I was genuinely confused. More cereal? It was like seeing colors I’d never seen before!
- unarmed_cookie: I thought every grandparents wouldn’t let their grandchild get up in the morning before grandma had her coffee
- Hee-hoes_Mad: There were no “accidents” in my mother’s house. Spilling a drink, dropping a plate, all accidents were treated as if you had done it maliciously and with intent. Her logic was, if you didn’t mean to do it, you wouldn’t have done it in the first place.
