WOW. Trump fell asleep at MSG during Game 3 of the NBA Finals. They don’t call him Sleepy Don for nothing.

I am not going to click through on this one, (sorry Independent) because I want to retain my belief that I know what four letter word he used.

For #4Corners viewers both here in Australia and overseas, this story by my excellent colleague Steve Cannane on the dangers of AI is a really important watch. m.youtube.com/watch?v=jkPV...

Trump is rotting America from the top to the bottom.

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

All right Nigella, but I am concerned about people who approach a snack in a dainty fashion. Can they not be encouraged to galumph at it?

The executive order effectively transforms these jobs—which include “epidemiologist,” “health scientist” and “toxicologist”—into “at-will” positions, meaning people in such roles can be readily fired without cause.

“I don’t think there is any way that this outbreak would have been missed for so long if all those programs were still at full strength and the U.S.A.I.D. mission team was still there.”

Yellow Warbler singing the song of his kind. Supposedly they stay in my area year round, but they’re much easier to see when they’re singing out in the open. #ECK #birds #naturephotography

As well said as I would expect from him. 👏

Shuler: A couple years ago, I was sitting in a room on Capitol Hill next to the big-tech billionaire crew. Those tech guys talked about their vision for the future, all the possibilities they saw. Guess what one word did not come out of their mouths: workers.

This is a devastating interview. Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good. Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

Sums it up perfectly.

Guess the phone call didn’t go well

Nithya Raman pulled ahead of Spencer Pratt in the race for the second spot in the November election for Los Angeles mayor after a vote update. But given the narrow margin and the votes still to be counted, CNN is not projecting which of the two will join Mayor Karen Bass in the November election.

Ken Paxton and Texas Republicans let a pedophile rapist basically walk free. Adam Hoffman did a plea bargain, spent a few weeks in jail, and walked out and doesn't have to register as a sex offender. Might be a huge scandal. Maybe worth some major headlines and stories.

A convicted participant in the attack on the Capitol now works at the Pentagon & has access to highly sensitive information. Spokesperson Valdez stated that Elias Irizarry is "a qualified, patriotic professional"& that they are proud to have him at the War Department.

Bari Weiss not beating the bootlicking propagandist allegations here:

Our president doesn’t give one tiny shit about the United States or its people. The fact his cult can’t perceive this is astonishing.

They are strong practitioners of TALE: Trumpers Always Lie about Everything.

Good morning & welcome to Roast Dinner Day A reminder from a professional wanderer: You do not need all the answers before you begin. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is put one paw in front of the other and trust the path. Have a lovely day, friends 🧡

I have followed the Auschwitz Memorial account here and on Twitter for close to a decade. It's the women and the children, particularly the infants, that I repost because they are the most gut wrenching. This is just as gut wrenching because Sam is no more deserving of his fate. Words fail me.

Pfft, says Elon Musk... empathy is the "fundamental weakness of Western civilization"...

When you run for LA mayor but you’ve never voted for LA mayor before.

They’re right to worry. Hegseth is clearly resegregating the military by race and sex.
