I see Trump as a composite of various figures from the Late Roman Republic. He exemplifies the vindictiveness and dementia of the returned Marius, the 'promise them anything' populism of a Clodius, and the consuming greed and frustrated desire for approbation of a Crassus.

Meta recently updated their terms of service to require any businesses that use their products to turn over their intellectual property in exchange for access to their platforms. I’m urging Meta to reverse this decision and compensate creators and publishers for their work.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett calls out violent political rhetoric such as Pauline Hanson’s car ramming video—for having a "direct correlation" to real attacks on politicians. Speers: “Like a cartoon that suggests someone should be hit by a car…?” Barrett: Yep.💥 #auspol

Mike Rogers was just caught on tape talking about how he wanted to make sure that there were retired cops who could intimidate voters in the city of Detroit. We deserve the right to vote. People have fought and died for that right. No more election deniers.

If your elderly relative routinely blew up at women and insulted them, grossly sexualized other men in public, regularly fell asleep in public mid-meeting repeatedly, and babbled incoherently you'd put him under care and not let him make important decisions.

Gripens with Meteor would put Ukrainian pilots in range of the Su-34s that drop glide bombs. Kill the launch, not the payload. Every month of feet-dragging on delivery is another town hit.

In a country where at least 56 women have died this year at the hands of current or ex-partners, it's safe to say we have a real problem with male violence rather than political violence.

I’m a bit late i know but i refuse to believe Tommy and Timmy Teepell are real names of real people. Those are the names of incompetent rat villain characters in a panto played by the Chuckle Brothers.

The land wears gold instead of green. We walk through October knowing it ends in the season of the dead. Everywhere an echoing back of bone omens, cardboard masks, mangle lanterns. Even the patisseries and fancy bakers of Weychester make folkloric nods in their displays of delight. – Dr. M. Benn

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."
