“This time last year, leaders like [Sam] Altman were making it sound like we’d raced over a technological cliff, and that we were tumbling chaotically toward an automated workforce. Such breathlessness now seems rash,” Cal Newport writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/k2Fp3C

On the diplomatic stage, Chinese President Xi Jinping projected strength, but beneath the diplomatic victories, he still has plenty of worries at home — from structural economic vulnerabilities to a personnel purge.

While a fast-moving line of severe thunderstorms moved east and out of the Chicago area, the National Weather Service on Sunday warned of an incoming cold front and prepared to issue an advisory for wind speeds that could approach 50 mph overnight and into Monday.

Oh so real conspiracies do happen.

It’s frustrating, but we already know it is a cult. This guy is all mouth here, but I know he heard the facts for probably the first time in his MAGAt life, and it’s marinating. #Pinks #ProudBlue #FuckMAGAts

President Donald Trump attacked people he described as "losers" and "sleazebags" in a dark screed on social media on Christmas night.

From our family to yours, merry Christmas! We hope your day is filled with good people and good food.

“If you’re speaking with someone who is a relative or a childhood friend, you can go back in your mind to remember who they were before, and keep telling yourself they’re still there,” said Hassan. “They’ve been hacked. They’re going to come out. So how can I help them...?”

Merry Christmas! Michelle and I hope you have a wonderful holiday filled with light and joy.

I've seen this going around today and it's beautiful, so here's a gift link.

Most New Yorkers can’t afford childcare.

Better yet, Donald Trump's citizenship should be revoked, and he should be sent back where he came from: HELL!

“Excuse me, where do they sell the black sharpies?” “Down the hall and to the left.”

Holiday greetings from the psychopath Stephen Miller and his ICE thugs

PHOTOS: A strong winter storm is pummeling Southern California with flooding rains, triggering evacuation orders in the Los Angeles area and leaving nearly 42 million under flood watches.

The National Weather Service has issued flash flood warnings covering parts of Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties until 6 p.m. Wednesday. Heavy rain has already caused significant flooding, rock slides and mud slides.

The movie is Christopher Nolan’s first since his Oscar-winning “Oppenheimer,” which was released in 2023 and garnered 50 million views on its trailer in 24 hours.

This hasn't received much attention but with 2nd seizure of oil tanker of Venezuela it will. The two tankers seized are oil China purchased. Seizures violate International Law. China has taken the issue to the UN. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

BREAKING: Mexico’s president just called on the UN to STOP Trump, humiliating him on a global stage. A new poll shows about 60% of Americans strongly oppose any invasion of Venezuela, yet Trump keeps pushing toward chaos anyway. In comes Mexico's president to save us. The Mexican President says NO

Nobody’s asking white Americans to apologize for being white. We’re asking those who benefit from unjust systems to join in dismantling them instead of denying they exist. That’s participation in democracy. Read Rabbi Sandra’s essay. https://shorturl.at/HKvlg

Trump's latest comments have prompted diplomatic protests from Denmark over sovereignty concerns.

The new drop of Epstein documents show that a subpoena was sent to Mar-a-Lago in 2021 for records that pertained to the government's case against Ghislaine Maxwell.

"That's like an extinction-level event... the anger and the frustration with the Canadians against America right now is something else." Sam Stein, Catherine Rampell and Sonny Bunch on the bourbon bust and how tariffs, retaliation, and broken alliances are hammering an iconic American industry.

Bari Weiss was right about how to improve the “60 Minutes” CECOT report, Graeme Wood argues—but her “drama-detector, so refined when seeking out news stories, seems to have failed her when avoiding it in her own newsroom.”

Ah, the Epstein/Nassar letter seems to be a fake. Makes sense.

Barry Manilow reveals lung cancer diagnosis

This is what CBS, Bari Weis and tRump don't want you to see about CECOT. substack.com/@therealtabi...

The American people have had enough of this two-tiered justice system where the ultrarich never face consequences. Ask your GOP Members of Congress what they will do to uphold the law they voted for, ensure the release of all the Epstein files, and give Epstein's survivors the justice they deserve.

THOU SHALT BOYCOTT CBS!!!

EVs aren’t just a car. They’re part of an energy system. What happens when millions of vehicles become part of the electricity system? Vehicle-to-grid will turn every EV into a mobile battery storage opportunity. #climatecrisis #electricvehicles #V2G #auspol www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/colour-...

www.rawstory.com/60-minutes-c... CBS must stand for Can't Be Serious? They're hiding a story about how the leader of the USA has concentration camps where people of color go to disappear? Hold them accountable. Turn the fucking channel. Enough of the pedo protection.

Nobody should watch CBS until this airs. Which may be never after Trump threatened them again. He has the ownership and management he wanted who will now obviously do his bidding. Erika Kirk last week, now this. The MAGA News Network.

Mike Johnson closed the House down early to avoid a vote on extending ACA tax credits. Nice try, Mike—all that does is give us more time to rally up support. Let's get loud as hell, folks, and make sure every member of Congress knows where we stand: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

From the White House to the conspiracy media-verse, at what should be their moment of greatest strength, MAGA simply cannot stop both constant covert sniping and the occasional outright brawl.

We live in the dumbest timeline. It's like a story from the Old Testament. www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...
