Free IKEA Alert, the King of Fake News Posts Speaks Out and Why Fungi Is the Future
A weekly selection of great links curated by the Core77 team
Core77's editors spend time combing through the news so you don't have to. Here's a weekly roundup of our favorite stories from the World Wide Web.
Mushrooms are the Future
As designers continue working to create dynamic change in society, they have simultaneously discovered that their work is bolstered by collaboration with science-focused colleagues. This video touches on the benefits of these partnerships in the realm of sustainability where mushrooms are now being engineered to not only replace energy-deficient leather materials, but also even basic building materials.

Free (!) IKEA & Uber Friendsgiving
Enter a caption (optional)Unfortunately, I'm headed to Philly for the weekend, so I'm sharing this secret in hopes I can live vicariously through some of you. IKEA and Uber have partnered to bring fans a free Friendsgiving when they call an Uber in NYC tomorrow—just enter a promo code in your Uber app, and you're in. If you don't have Uber yet, it's time to get with the 21st century. The sweet deal includes a full IKEA tableware package (modern or traditional themed) and a full dinner complete with a lot of cheese and meatballs. Take advantage my friends, take advantage.

Never Ending Election
Enter a caption (optional)Even though the election is over, stories about the election won't stop. We've heard a lot about fake news being spread around on social media and through searches. The Washington Post has an entertaining interview with Paul Horner, a 38-year old writer who is the king of fake news posts. According to Horner "I thought they'd fact-check it, and it'd make them look worse. I mean that's how this always works: Someone posts something I write, then they find out it's false, then they look like idiots."
—Stuart Constantine, publisher and managing partner

The Fake News kings are not small independent writers. And it's not even this idiot who thinks he's so clever writing Fake News. No, the real Fake News comes from NYTimes, Washington Post, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, Fox and the rest of the lying corporate mainstream media. They have been exposed for decades as nothing but liars, whores for political favors and $, they will lie about anything. They are complicit in international coup d'etats and illegal wars causing the murder of millions. They lie to the US population from covering up 9/11 to covering as news the Fake mass shootings across the nation. If you don't believe it, ask yourself: Why did the District of Corruption and Obomber the Obozo sign into law the Smith-Mundt "Modernization" Act buried in the 2013 NDAA? If you don't know Smith Mundt, it was a law preventing the government from propagandizing its own citizens...
What sources do you recommend for unbiased fact-based reporting?
Do you have any proof about mass shootings being staged that you could share? Hard to believe.
I didn't believe it either when I first started researching it; do your own sleuthing, keep digging, and you will begin to see the depth of the deception... Look up terms (on non-mainstream search engines like DuckDuckGo.com) such as "crisis actors," "Smith-Mundt modernization act," "false-flag shootings," etc... The rabbit hole is real, and deep...
