🦀 new CapCut ToS + no kings day protest + MASSIVE Capri Sun + Weck jars + Dodgers PR crisis + sharking + RIP Theodore Seville + David Beckham gummies + Pedro Pascal lookalike contest + Trump phone🦀

happy monday from the digital deep 🦀 🌊
where Theodore from The Chipmunks has an obituary meme,
the navy wants you (if you’re a startup),
and CapCut made a sneaky change to their ToS

we’re sharking all summer, sipping diet cherry coke,
and trying to process the fact that capri sun
is now an emotional support gallon pouch (???)

let’s see what else has washed up on our feed today…

fresh catch:

• Meta says you should be putting links in the comments, not your captions

• TikTok notes in-stream shopping increased 120% this year

• David Beckham launching gummies for active kids

trends:

• the ‘cha cha tongue slide‘ trend is low effort but culturally tapped in

• this ChatGPT convo prompt is trending on TikTok, showing daily one-on-ones with AI

• we found out what ‘sharking’ means

and don’t even get us started on…

• countries on the net beefin in 2025 (check out Iran’s Twitter account 👀)

• T-Mobile but the T stands for Trump

• JB’s Father’s Day post and cryptic IG screenshots

back into the algo abyss we go 🕳️ 🦀
TO THE LINKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Is Theodore from Alvin and the Chipmunks dead at 27? Viral claim debunked (Sports Keeda)
A viral tweet claiming Theodore Seville from Alvin and the Chipmunks has died at 27 has been debunked as a meme. The tweet, originally posted by @NaesCloset, featured a photo of Theodore with a subtext reading "He will be missed," but it was traced back to a satire account, @rizzlernews, and is not based on factual information.
