John Carpenter made some of the greatest movies of all time and then retired to make music with his son and play video games. It’s possible he has lived the greatest life in human history.

We did it everyone! We got Hollywood to recognize he’s not just a cringe musician, a phony nuisance on set, and an alleged sex predator he’s finally now unmarketable box office poison headed to movie jail.

‘TRON: ARES’ has earned $14.3M in its opening day at the domestic box office.

For comparison, ‘MORBIUS’ opened to $17.3M.

Very disappointed in you Zarah, Zack has been incredibly kind, friendly + comradely to you - more than anybody in Your Party. It's also unfair + hypocritical - Jeremy led Labour twice into elections with remaining in NATO as policy. You also stood for Labour twice with that commitment to NATO.

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.

Education Department wipes out special ed office in shutdown layoffs, union says

The Education Department laid off nearly everyone at the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

I could tell this was AI right from the get-go but it’s like with the Terminators — every generation makes it harder and harder to tell. And that’s scary.

The mass firings at the CDC tonight drive home the fact that no one is coming to save us

But we can save each other

Wear a mask. Ideally a respirator like an N95

Even if you’re vaccinated. Even if you’re “not worried”

It protects you but it also protects everyone else

Bonus? Less colds & flus!

153 kids are in quarantine in South Carolina.

118 kids in Minneapolis.

This is what happens when we ignore the science.

When we stop vaccinating, long eradicated diseases come back.

The kids deserve better than this. Measles can disable. It can kill. And it’s completely preventable.

Hundreds of U.S. students quarantined amid measles outbreaks

At least 270 unvaccinated kids are staying home from school as measles continues to spread nationwide. "Expect more," one expert said.
