🩅 “Falcon Mode” — Lyft’s enshittification. Labubu’s viral dolls. Bezos vs Trump on “Tariff Fees.”

Lyft dropped the wildest CEO letter ever
 and it includes “Enshitiffication” and “Falcon Mode.”

The most popular, viral product right now? Labubu dolls
 Their growth hack? Blind boxes.

The big business beef was President Trump calling Jeff Bezos
 because of a Tariff Fee.

Plus, the world’s biggest pasta brand just solved pasta cooking
 with the first “Pasta Playlist.”
