We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner.

A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

Thinking about how Stand By Me was one of the first movies I saw about children that could be watched by children that was also very cognizant of what it was actually like to *be* a child.

Nothing will do more to perpetuate the stereotype of Arkansans as a bunch of backwoods rubes than this decision to kill off PBS and make us the only state without access to PBS broadcasts.

RIP, Arkansas PBS - Arkansas Times
The end of federal funding for public media demolishes Arkansas PBS. The station will rebrand as ATV and feature mainly local programming.

This is, uh, not a smart move. Section 230 has its flaws, but repealing it without having an *extremely solid* plan in place to replace the protections for free speech it offers is tantamount to banning the LGBTQ+ community and others from public online spaces.
Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

"Our biggest need right now is more adopters to help fulfill all the wishes we continue to receive. For those able and willing, adopting a family letter is the best way to share the magic of the holidays with an entire household all at once."

Dec. 13 is the last day to adopt letters and ship gifts.

That's correct.
I've been told Sameer Project is the "gold standard" for sending aid to Palestinians. Of many projects, this one is to keep Gazans warm this winter: shelter, warm clothing, blankets. Now they're in tattered tents w nothing, w/ Israel blocking aid entry despite ceasefire.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service
