I didn’t hear these people complaining in the 2000s when gay marriage was being banned via amendment-by-referendum

This isn’t a rant against James Carville so much as it is a rant against the independence of the Supreme Court

While Bart complains about this "high concept" ad, this is one reason I miss the old TV Guide. They were compact and cozy as well as a great outlet for creativity from networks, graphic designers, and artists alike.

I miss that.

This is so beside the point, but 15 years? I swear it feels like Cook took over yesterday. Time flies when you're having... whatever the hell we've been having over the last decade plus

This is the third Trump administration cabinet secretary to resign or be fired in less than two months

Frequent turnover was characteristic of Trump's first term but is unusual in modern American presidential administrations

When I went to sleep Vance was not going to Pakistan because security concerns. Now he's going again. What changed?

Someday, with luck and hard work, she will have a name too.

Using AI to write is plagiarism — intellectual theft. Like plagiarism, it should be treated as a moral and legal taboo.

AI Drafting My Stories? Over My Dead Body AI-assisted writing is creeping into newsrooms under the guise of efficiency. But the tradeoff may be more profound than publishers are willing to admit.

It's efficient and economical to have AI write drafts of of a news story or, god forbid, something longer. After all, people just want the info, right? Wrong. If this is the wave of the future, I'd rather drown. www.wired.com/story/backch...

“A Texas mother whose son, a Navy sailor, is also aboard the Tripoli, said she panicked after hearing he was hungry on the ship. Her family has now spent at least $2,000 on care packages, but none have reached her son. The mother asked to remain anonymous out of fear her son would face retaliation.”

Commentary: Why I Left National Media to Run a Small Town Newspaper | The Daily Yonder Within my first few hours of being in Valley County, I learned people are hungry for local news. A new face in Glasgow, a town of 3,202 people, folks

Local journalism matters. That's why I left national media to run a small-town newspaper

I mean.... lecturing the pope on matters of Catholic theology has to be like lecturing Einstein on the theory of relativity, or da Vinci in how to be an artist, or Shakespeare in how to be a writer

Can you imagine?

I don't know enough about Catholicism to know if this is excommunication time but I do know that lecturing THE POPE in matters of Catholic theology demonstrates just an incredible amount of hubris or confidence, and I reckon which it is depends on who you voted for in 2024

Today was the longest day I've had as a reporter since covering the 2017 UK general election. I am BEAT

French woman, 86, held by ICE after moving to US to marry 1950s sweetheart The family of Marie-Thérèse, from Brittany, fear for her health after she was cuffed and placed in a detention centre

Hey, Democrats: Take Yes for an Answer Welcome America Firsters into the tent—and steal their message.

"When I watch these MAGA bro rants, part of me wants to shout You moron! How are you just now seeing this?! And I will certainly treat myself to a gratuitous dunk from time to time. But fundamentally I believe that people are redeemable."

I've found this weird thing with my Silent Generation parents. They don't question their doctors, they don't yell at their elected reps - it's this weird attitude where you just let things happen to you and accept it.

There's a Pulitzer in it for whoever writes a sequel to Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle," setting it in an Amazon warehouse

The same week the NYTimes was devoting its significant resources to producing this ridiculous piece about Lauren Sanchez Bezos's call for rich people to not worry and be happy, Ryan Hass, an independent journalist in Oregon, was investigating this horrifying story about a death in an Amazon plant.

Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?

Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

As someone who has thought Lionel Shriver was an overrated hack for more than a decade, it is nice to see people coming around to my point of view

Staunch Trump Supporters Are Now Asking If He's the Antichrist The Iran war and a series of social media posts, including one depicting Trump as Jesus Christ, have some conservative commentators and fans suspecting the president may be the antichrist.

Hungary under Orban was a case study in democratic backsliding. The country was labeled an "electoral autocracy" by the European Parliament. "Orbanism" was viewed as a model for Trump's return to power. So Orban's defeat is causing shockwaves tonight, as we discussed on CNN:

Blocking all traffic in the Strait assumes Iran's leadership will be more vulnerable to the resulting economic damage and international pressure than the US.

Don't know nearly enough to offer an opinion on if that's true.
