I hear you, Lucas, so I must be within those few meters.

The world depends on people like you, who are knowledgeable and prepared, to help when disaster strikes. Many other things are falling apart right now, so we're all busy with those. But if H5N1 takes off, then we'll be very glad you prepared.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

This Is How Meta AI Staffers Deemed More Than 7 Million Books to Have No “Economic Value” As more than a dozen lawsuits churn ahead, newly unsealed case files reveal the company’s stance: The pirated books Meta used to train its AI, including ones by Beverly Cleary, Jacqueline Woodson, and...

BREAKING: American Airlines plane catches fire at Denver airport

You have to hand it to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, he knows exactly how to handle Trump.
