from what I understand, next season is more lacking in the yuri than what we have gotten this year thus far, however regardless of that I feel SO blessed to have been able to watch two yuri's in botan kamiina and kimishinu, for which I personally consider to be 10/10 omg what a time to be a yuri fan

Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

"Today, the Trump administration took away federal protections for LGBTQ+ students, pregnant and parenting students, and they did it without asking parents, teachers, or students what they thought. Add in the funding delays, the cuts to special education staff, and the threats against school districts across the country, and it's clear that public schools are under attack.

NEW: Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery are pushing back on Sen. Cory Booker’s attack on their antitrust settlement with the states, arguing the judge does not need to decide whether the deal fully cures an illegal merger — because no antitrust violation has ever been found.

The issue centers on Section 7 of the Clayton Act, which bars mergers that may substantially lessen competition or tend to create a monopoly. Paramount says the court should ask only whether the settlement is fair and lawful — not whether it provides everything the states might have won at trial.
