Many get sick while traveling.
One major reason is they don’t realize mass transit is high risk because airline CEOs lied about viral spread early in the pandemic and lobbied the CDC to lower precautions.
To make the most of your holiday, take precautions like wearing a mask when you travel!

Neither Copilot or ChatGPT is designed to actually facilitate either one of those things and frittering away actual decision-making and document writing (speaking as person to maintains and creates process docs) to a LLM tells me you shouldn't really be doing that job
As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

A reminder that deportable crimes involving moral turpitude include things like turnstile hopping, and that from the very start of Trump‘s career he has sought to cast all migrants as criminals.
So the new reporting is that DHS has decided to go back to a primary focus on targeted enforcement that existed before the late May orders from Stephen Mille to ramp up numbers or else.
Quite frankly, I’ll believe it when I see it. And also at this point the public struggles to tell the difference.

It's truly remarkable how there will be news organizations and journalists who correctly identify that RFK is a menace and that HHS can't e trusted when he pushes stuff about vaccines or Tylenol causing autism... but cover the anti-trans stuff like "Well, HHS says so, and we should trust HHS!"
Trans youth healthcare is based in decades of research and supported by every major medical organization in the US. Under RFK Jr, a handpicked panel produced a dodgy report claiming otherwise.
It's a clear example of Kennedy's war on science. So why aren't news organizations treating it that way?

Hey… pssst. The reason why the 5 year social media histories are only being asked of ESTA applicants is because the US government has been collecting social media information of visa applicants for almost a decade now. Once again, migration rights were the canary in the coal mine.

The running theme between the Epstein story, banning trans healthcare for minors, religious homeschooling and the complaints about adult children estranging themselves is a fundamental American belief that children are property with no rights of their own
America is a culture of child abuse. Ask any survivor - we find one another, we form networks and communities.
The true scale of it would stagger and sicken you, and so it is buried, it is swept under the rug, it is denied and the survivors are silenced by whatever means are necessary.

Acknowledging that the US prison system has been a slave labor colony for generations, that just a generation ago the US almost simultaneously opened an explicit concentration camp *and* said it'd militarily invade the Hague if persecuted for crimes against humanity, is vital.

Why would you need to put a pause on a story that has been meticulously fact-checked and lawyered?
