Barbie is the biggest debut of the year, making $155 million at the box office this weekend alone. With the help of Barbenheimer, Oppenheimer exceeded expectations with a $80 million debut too. Now that we are approaching the end of the hype, we want to force you to choose between two incredibly different movies in an unfair comparison because why not? Which did you enjoy more? Let us know your thoughts on Twitter @101xMorningX.

Ryan Gosling truly is Kenough. If you still aren’t convinced, here’s one of Emily’s favorite interviews with the guy.
Emily Is The Swan Princess
Last week Emily needed help figuring out the best way to enjoy Lady Bird Lake. Although those retro boat rentals looked adorable, they were not in the budget this time. Instead, she took her friend out on a swan boat! Who would’ve thought that peddling for an hour in the heat would be really fun?
Emily’s first time on a bird on Lady Bird Lake. Sorry, Swan. Either way, no bird poop was involved which is the important part! pic.twitter.com/9UODVoeOuH

Dog Poop Fines
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all of those people who don’t pick up their dog’s poop would get penalized? Well, the UK is starting to fine irresponsible pet owners for doing so. We wanted to discuss the possibility of this policy being introduced in Austin because we surely need it.

Roommate Red Flag
Emily has only been living with her new roommate for a few weeks, and she has already lost all of her keys. Yes, even the spare. Is this a warning sign of what Emily is about to get herself into by living with this person? Or is this behavior normal for a 20-something?

Twitter? X? Elon Land?
What is going on with Twitter?! Elon Musk recently changed the platform’s bird logo to an “X”, which opens an entire world of questions. There’s one thing that we do know, no matter how bad Twitter gets no one will be moving over to Threads.
And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds
