AP has a pretty good write-up but I couldn't find the complaint.
Basically, LSU fired Kelly and then realized they'd have to pay a $54M buyout so they're trying to claim it was for cause on flimsy evidence. Also the governor is throwing a tantrum.

I'm trying to imagine what it would be like to be a music producer who gets an email that reads, "Hi, I'm a 16-year-old recording artist and I'd be absolutely chuffed if you'd give my new song a listen. It's called 'Jail Bait'."
Everyone involved in making this happen who was an adult at the time should at minimum be on some kind of list

About time - at least they were well preserved

The items will be taken to the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau, Quebec. There, experts &Indigenous groups will try to identify where the items originated, down to the specific community

It was joyous to meet you guys and to see every bit of obscure Jon Cryer merch under the sun.

And I signed most of it. #RICC

I hadn't drawn the connection until now but I often have people reply to me on Discord where my initial response is "this person is using a written medium of communication but appears to be functionally illiterate, how is this possible?" and now it all makes sense.
horrifying, but it does explain why I occasionally run into people who get very mad at me over things they think i said instead of things i actually said

Whenever some sanctimonious Dem announces that America needs a functioning Republican Party, I always think “I’d settle for a functioning Democratic Party.”

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.
NEW: The Trump admin told states it must immediately "undo" the work to provide full food stamp benefits, or face penalties. The feds sent this in a late-night memo, only adding to the chaos and confusion around SNAP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

it doesn’t get any clearer that america’s betrothal to fossil fuels is about letting energy companies pick our pockets to prop up their obsolete industry
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

This will be a long thread on yesterday police massacre in Rio.

In nothern Rio de Janeiro city, there is a couple of hills called Complexo da Penha. It's Comando Vermelho("Red Command", a drug gang), or CV, territory.

CV is the greatest gang in Rio, second in the whole Brazil.

🧵 Awful awful massacre in Brazil
Gente, é o maior massacre no Brasil desde o Araguaia. Entendo quem quer puxar pra Canudos ou Contestado ou etc, mas não podemos livrar a ditadura de 64 só porque ela escondia melhor seus corpos.

Morreram 41 guerrilheiros comunistas e mais de 1200 camponeses no Araguaia.

@davidgerard.co.uk It's fun watching this and the racist Cuomo video through the lens of the Veo testing vids you and Aaron did. LLMs still hate violence and can't keep continuity longer than a few seconds.
Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified.

So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life.

Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.
