For reference, this is unusual. They’ve continued to share things on social media like IG, but it’s all old content - like a “best of” compilation. Has anyone heard anything about what’s actually going on? I adore their work, and have supported them by buying merch in the past.

Australia has the Betoota advocate. Canada has the Beaverton. Ireland has Waterford whispers News,
All do local and international commentary to varying degrees.
Seems they have fallen on hard times

I saw a comment earlier that said something like the CEO or something along that lines quit or something like that? I wasn’t really paying attention when I skimmed through tho.
Oh, really? I hadn’t heard that, but if so, that’s disappointing. I actually found some of their headlines/articles to be equal to, or funnier, than The Onion’s. I’m gonna be bummed if they’ve closed up shop.
