I'm barely home 4 hours, and my mother's already got me watching WICKED, a film I've avoided for the last year.

If you're out here saying that academic freedom doesn't mean a professor can say no to AI and that professors don't know how to improve teaching, I think you've lost the plot.

Don't forget: President Trump relentlessly attacked @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & did everything to stop his win.

It's funny how his tune changed when confronted with Mamdani’s actual focus on affordability — something Trump claims to care about.

Let this be a lesson: Always stand up to a bully.

Oh well in that case
Q: Are you affirming that you think President Trump is a fascist?

MAMDANI: I've spoken about--

TRUMP: That's okay. You can just say yes. I don't mind.

EBU gonna EBU (try everything in their power to have Israel in the contest despite everything)
Lastly, EBU: "Members meeting at the EBU’s General Assembly at the beginning of December will be asked to consider this package of measures and safeguards and decide if they are sufficient to meet their concerns around participation without having a vote on the topic."

Mayor Pete has the right to marry because the gay men and lesbians who came before him fought for it. It was a movement based our identities in the plural sense as LGBTQ Americans. Pander somewhere else fella.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25

Microsoft forcing the copilot button on me and not creating a way to get rid of it has objectively ruined my life.

"compared himself to Joe Manchin"
"I don’t have a problem with anyone being transgender, but I do not believe you should be able to compete in sports with naturally born females"
"I would always be pro-Israel”
Nobody needs this.

I’ve voted 7 times to reopen the government in a way that holds Trump accountable for his lawlessness and prevents a health care crisis.

I’m prepared to work toward a compromise, but this “deal” before us does not come close to meeting those terms. Voting NO.

Hal Rogers will die in office and no one will notice for years
In case there was any doubt, Congressman Hal Rogers (serving Kentucky's 5th District for 23 terms, since 1981, the longest-serving member of the U.S. House) filed to run for reelection yesterday.

Concerned that Debra Messing hasn't posted video of herself on Instagram reading a poem she wrote about how New York is now under Sharia Law and had no money because Mamdani got elected.

With just one post, Seth Meyers has all the material his team needs to write an incredibly meta Closer Look about how Trump thinks that a segment making fun of him calling speech he doesn't like "treasonous" is "probably illegal."
Trump sets his sights on Seth Meyers.

“NO TALENT, NO RATINGS, 100% ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!”

Note: This is me — I asked this question.

You’ll hear me say “yes you have” here — because Johnson was already *directly asked* about one of these instances (when the Presbyterian minister was shot in the head with a pepper ball) in one of earlier shutdown press conferences.
Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos

"The strikes — the deadliest since the ceasefire was enacted on Oct. 10 — marked the most serious challenge to the tenuous truce to date."
How many bodies does it take for the world to admit Israel has never engaged in the ceasefire?
BREAKING: The Israeli military says the ceasefire in Gaza is back in effect after it carried out heavy airstrikes across the Palestinian territory. The death toll from the overnight strikes climbed to 81, according to hospital officials.
Israeli strikes overnight in Gaza kill at least 60 people, including children, local officials say
Israeli strikes overnight in Gaza have killed at least 60 people, including many children. That's according to local hospital officials on Wednesday.
