Six of the nine Nobel Prize winners this year work in the U.S.
Three of the six were born outside the U.S., which is the pattern most years. No country has benefited more from welcoming immigrants from around the world.

The Nobel Prize rewards science, humanism and peace efforts. This is one of the central concepts in the will of Alfred Nobel, and it also permeates the outreach activities that have been developed for...

Robin Williams daughter Zelda is pleading with people to stop creating AI videos of her Dad.

I’m pleading with you to stop using generative AI.

It’s destructive to the environment.

It’s destructive to artists.

It’s destructive to humanity.

It steals from us and churns out slop.

Just stop.

As a long time anti school anarchist it brings me no joy to say that American schools are essentially a killing field for children at this point. Whether it’s a bullet carved with a swastika or a third infection in as many months leading to permanent and potentially fatal health outcomes

I really want to make everyone I know read this

The danger of COVID is its inherent danger, yes, but it’s also its relentlessness. It’s that when you get away with your 5th infection it’s coming right back for you a 6th time. A 6th time in year 6? And you’re a 6-year-old child? Is it really such a mystery that teachers are complaining that “COVID babies” can’t say their names or tie their shoes coming into kindergarten? We’ve been serially infecting children with a virus that damages their brains. We know it does this. And we just…. keep doing it?

Can someone tell him he didn’t win the two world wars on his own?

America didn’t get involved in WWII until near the end.

Canada fought in both wars far longer.

Also, they didn’t win everything in between.

Don't be suckered in by Poilievre's campaign to launch a campaign over Canadian Christians suffering "persecution." He is running the same playbook as the AfD in Germany, Trump in the States and Farage in the UK.
