???? TikTok's rosacea misinformation?
???? Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes redness on the face. Cleveland Clinic says it's not curable, but it's manageable with the right care.
???? But @type.a.style on TikTok said the right product “cured” her rosacea issues.
???? Dazed warns that TikTok is full of harmful misinformation on rosacea, though: The “cures” touted on the app exploit sufferers.
???? And Wired believes it doesn't stop at misinformation: TikTok Shop's cheap skincare market may be riddled with counterfeits.
?? The Crumbley sentences
?? Detroit News: James and Jennifer Crumbley, the parents of a mass shooter, received 10-15 years in prison, which is the maximum sentence for involuntary manslaughter. The judge emphasized that the parents' behavior was negligent.

?? CNN: Maybe the sentences were fair. In impact statements, families of the Oxford shooting victims called for accountability.
?? But Hot Air wasn't so sure: The Crumbley parents' inaction was criminalized by law. That seems like a stretch.
?? And The Atlantic was also unhappy with the sentencing: The Crumbley sentences are a deflection from systemic gun control failures.
