While documenting the front lines of the Korean War as a Marine Corps combat photographer, Robert H. Mosier met and befriended a Korean teenager known only by his surname of Kim. Now, more than 70 years later, Mosier's son is hoping to find Kim. From Stars and Stripes' Julie Masson:

A Marine befriended a local boy during the Korean War. His son hopes to find him
More than 70 years after the Korean War, the son of a late Marine combat photographer is searching for a Korean man who, as a teenager, accompanied his father while he documented the conflict.

I wrote something about Epstein’s gifting relationship with 3 different scientists. This is the first part, which investigates how Epstein leveraged his connection with public intellectual Steven Pinker.

Historically, when we localize the effects of poverty to the biology of the poor, it stigmatizes those populations but you missed entire fields of research and decades of arguments.

a tweet from Qasim Rashid from Mar 21, 2026, quoting Elon "Shitheel Nazi" Musk's tweet reading "I would like to offer to pay the salaries of the TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country"
Rashid's response:  "A reminder that we don't need billionaires to pay charity, we need them to pay their damn taxes.  Billionaire philanthropy is PR to disguise their tax evasion.  
Don't fall for it.  Tax billionaires.  Save our democracy.  Period."

I swear at least half of the AI hype comes from men who get all titillated that they can make a bot do a thing. At a time when they can’t make women do what they want, the AI is a crutch for male fantasies of power and control.
