The world of journalism will truly mourn the loss of Vice's hard-hitting articles such as this

Me too. I tease Vice here, but they did some incredible journalism and their collapse is entirely sad. The state of journalism in 2024 in general is distressing, to severely understate the matter

Wait wait what collapse? I’m out of the loop

I’ll miss the only show of theirs I liked - Action Bronson Smokes Weed and watches ancient aliens with friends. It is the best background tv to any sesh besides cops reruns or family guy or whatever

Watching Cops while smoking (or ever, but especially while smoking) is crazy

The irony of it makes it kind of funny. So many episodes were filmed in places without legal weed so it’s a contrast to modern day where states legalized and private use wasn’t some sketchy sneaky stuff but just behaving normally lol
