This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.
They’ll play this in museums in future.

Note from the editors: ProPublica is publishing the names of the two federal immigration agents involved in the fatal shooting of Minnesota protester Alex Pretti. We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. The Department of Justice said it is investigating the incident, but the names of the two agents have been withheld from Congress and from state and local law enforcement. The policy of shielding officers’ identities, particularly after a public shooting, is a stark departure from standard law enforcement protocols, according to lawmakers, state attorneys general and former federal officials. Such secrecy, in our view, deprives the public of the most fundamental tool for accountability.
A note from our editors:
Excellent, damning analysis of the video of the killing of Ms Good, from the NYT, including a quick debunking of the “evidence” the President showed other Times reporters last night.

RIP to one of the few filmmakers who legitimately lived up to the term visionary.
This seems like a big deal...
A movie that takes place where you're from.
I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field.
There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.
A great way to honor Terence Stamp is to watch The Limey. First, because it at least partially means you’re watching *two* Terence Stamp movies. Second, because The Limey absolutely rules and Stamp is phenomenal in it.
Headline: "A prominent OPENAI investor appears to be suffering a CHatGPT-related mental health crisis, his peers say"
NEW: A prominent investor in OpenAI has been making strange posts that sound as though he may be going through what's being called "ChatGPT psychosis," in which AI affirms users' unbalanced thinking and leads them down a dark mental health rabbit hole

A screenshot of a tweet that says "In honor of my father, I'm spending today pretending like I don't exist."
(Back on Twitter, this was my annual Father's day message, but decided to mix it up here on Bluesky.)

So nice of Funko Pop to honor my dad this Father's Day.

Trump's tariffs could increase the cost of an iPhone 16 Pro by almost $300. Who pays for it? Us or Apple?
And if we moved iPhone manufacturing to the U.S.? Let’s just say… get ready for a bajillion-dollar iPhone.

Oh I'm doing fine Dimon--just no longer freelancing. Hope you're also doing well.
I struggled as a freelance editor for 15 years, finally giving it up when COVID ended my main dependable side hustle. Thankfully I was able to evolve and adapt, because as I've heard from freelancers who were better at it than I, it's only gotten worse out there www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

(Also if you haven't seen THE FLORIDA PROJECT, it's even better than ANORA imho.)
ANORA wasn't my favorite film last year but it's great to see a small film made with a lot of passion and heart take home the big prize. LFG Sean Baker!
