Little Durk’s in the slammer on federal charges, and with him out of the game, I’m ready to take up the torch. Who else is going to fill the rap void now? Listen up, because it might be time for my return with fire holiday mixtapes, verses hotter than ever. Yes, 2010 Levi is back in action—brace yourselves for the most electrifying comeback in hip-hop history.

Then, New York City, of course, brings us something only 2024 could cook up—a fire hydrant fish pond. Yep, that’s right, some residents with way too much time (and way too many goldfish) decided to turn a leaky hydrant into an urban aquarium. It’s the cringe virality of 2024: fish swimming in questionable city water. And guess who highlighted this for us? Casey Neistat, king of “going viral.” But the dream ends here, folks, because the NYC Fire Department eventually got fed up and shut it down. No hydrant aquarium, no fish funerals in New York’s unofficial ponds—what a loss for culture, am I right?

Now let’s dive into Love is Blind Season 7. We’re down to just a couple of success stories, but most of these couples… total trainwrecks. Some broke up for logical reasons, like Ramses and Marissa, who figured they’d had enough of each other before even tying the knot. But let’s be real, many of these contestants couldn’t even handle boiling pasta or owning a decent suit. Justice for Nick D, though—this man deserves his redemption arc for sure.

Last but not least, the McDonald’s shift heard ‘round the world: Donald Trump slinging fries in Pennsylvania as a “man of the people” stunt. Turns out Gen Z found it pretty hilarious and kind of liked it, which either means he’s nailed viral marketing, or we’re all desperate for laughs at this point. But of course, it didn’t come without a dig at Kamala Harris, questioning if she really did flip those burgers in her youth. I’ll tell you what, Trump might not be working at McD’s full-time, but hey, if he shows up in a visor next, we’re getting popcorn and settling in.

So, don’t miss next week when we break down the Love is Blind reunion, more holiday mixtape announcements, and all the pop-culture twists you know you need. Catch us on all your favorite platforms and don’t forget—Levi from What are We Doing for president. Write me in this November; let’s make America funny again.
