Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.

I love late night shows and will always love late night shows. There’s a showbiz magic to hundreds of people throwing together an entire entertainment program for a live studio audience that will then be on television that same night. Regardless of business or if you like them, just kind of magical.

If you use AI you’re accelerating climate crisis, polluting deprived communities, burning through water, giving bosses excuses to reduce workers rights and wages. It’s a moral and ethical degradation.

WIRED @wired.com · May 26

A researcher calculates that, without increased production, AI will consume up to 82 terrawatt-hours of electricity this year—around the same as the annual electricity consumption of Switzerland.

AI Is Eating Data Center Power Demand—and It’s Only Getting Worse

A new analysis of AI hardware being produced and how it is being used attempts to estimate the vast amount of electricity being consumed by AI.

We shot a very funny episode of "Have I Got News For You" tonight. I went into it thinking tariffs wouldn't be funny. I was wrong. Our guests @karenchee.bsky.social and @rokhanna.bsky.social were both funny and awesome. Airs tomorrow night on CNN.

Nobody should be disappeared from the streets of Somerville – or anywhere in America.

Everyone should be alarmed by the video of Rumesya Ozturk being handcuffed and taken away by agents. The government must immediately release her.

when the Oscars show a clip of a nominated actor they should also play a clip of the nominee in real life so we can see just how much acting they really did

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.

TWENTY.

As in, they call that getting slammed.

So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

TWENTY is a lot.
