All of this is a lie. Anyone who has visited recently knows the KC was not "in a virtual state of collapse," and anyone who can read a tax filing can see that it was not "losing hundreds of millions of dollars". In fact, its finances were pretty healthy UNTIL Trump trashified it.

Tonight, SCOTUS lifted one lower-court block on the executive order targeting voter lists and mail voting. What the Court explicitly *did not* do: rule that the order is legal. And nothing about tonight's ruling changes voters' ability to vote by mail in the midterms. Here’s why ⬇️

Musk spent nearly $300 million to elect a president with a virulently anti-immigrant agenda and now is telling Trump’s anti-immigrant supporters to “FUCK YOURSELF in the face” Unclear who Musk thought was voting for the guy who blamed immigrants for all of America’s economic problems
Musk post: “The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B.

Take a big step back and FUCK YOURSELF in the face. I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend.”

The “democratization” of media has given us a new creator economy where two-thirds of news influencers are men, at the same time that the legacy newsrooms they’re replacing had started achieving gender parity. 🤔 mattdpearce.substack.com/p/making-jou...
You've probably already heard about the new Pew report about male creators making up two-thirds of news influencers. Another new creator labor study by Marita Freimane found that, when YouTube had metrics allowing users to show their dislike of videos, "female content creators received significantly more negative feedback on comparable content than male content creators." When the dislike metric was removed, "relative to men, women produce 8.4 percent more videos after the platform design change. The increase in productivity coincides with an even larger increase of 15.5 percent in demand for content produced by women." Women were literally making fewer videos, that fewer users saw, because users were discriminating against them so much. The internet is a workplace like any other, except this one doesn't have unions.

Censoring plays like this is bad. High school theater is important and plays like this help the whole school learn about events like Matthew Shepard's murder. The district shutting it down is cowardice rooted in homophobia. www.broadwayworld.com/article/Scho...
