I used to read those stories a lot. I liked the challenging and interesting stories.

But after a while they took a turn for the more dramatic and IMO what felt like a lot less honest articles that read like they're intended to manipulate the reader, make a point via some morality tale / op-ed disguised as something personal.

Now it is a bunch of short glib stories and misc celebs reading them aloud.
