Related: If you like anime, whether you realize it or not, you've probably marveled at an "Itano Circus;" an action scene featuring aerial combat, with loads of skittering projectiles chasing a target.

This was developed by Ichirō Itano. Watch a compilation here.

I don't know who is goofier. FIFA for making a peace prize, or Trump for showing up to receive it.

The "DOGE is gone" articles are clickbait but this one gets it closer to the truth: DOGE is not gone, it just claims to have "no centralized leadership" anymore -- in other words, its leadership is hiding in an attempt to avoid blame.
DOGE no longer has ‘centralized leadership’ under White House tech team, personnel head says
The team that was altered to house DOGE — formerly the U.S. Digital Service — is also still doing its own technology work across agencies.

A noticeable trend here: people who challenge the Trump administration are often mocked in the same way by officials — by questioning whether they hold the title given to them.

I heard there was a Cohen song,

And all the Christians got it wrong,

But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?

‘Cause you see its about getting laid,

It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,

But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

I can't shake this feeling that Conservatives hate the idea that you can end up need, in spite of being diligent and working hard. Like, the idea that you can just get dealt a crummy hand and end up down and out just doesn't exist in real life.

The U.S. military is being used inside the United States. There's a lot we don't know about how, why, and under what authorities.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Reading a FB friend's post, regarding Mamdani's win in NYC (they don't live close to NYC).

Like...lady...you've had DJT in office for the better part of the year and *this* is what triggers you into asking God to revive us?

Shared this link on FB (I know. I know.) Have gotten 3 replies thus far that are the equivalent of "All this is the necessary consequence of everything that the Dems have done."

It is AMAZING mental gymnastics that blames the other side when your team controls all 3 government branches.
