  • I wish headlines (and journalists in general) wouldn’t be so afraid about repeating words and names.

    My first question was “Which streamer?”, and now I’m thinking they probably just didn’t want to use the name “Spotify” twice.

    I’ve been noticing this trend over the last few years. They also seem to be using pronouns less.

    Gaming journalists will write about Mario and say something like…

    “Super Mario Odyssey is the newest Mario game where the red-hatted plumber takes on Bowser! The Nintendo superstar has all kinds of new abilities, and the mushroom-chomping, goomba-stomping hero even has a new friend!”

    It just makes things annoying to read, imo
