The high contrast, harsh lighting/unnatural color trend in food photography must stop. This was a dish from the great Claire Saffitz in Epicurious. The food styling is good—I like the messy simplicity but the chicken looks radioactive. The photog made the lighting choice so this wasn’t all editing.

Stephen Frears’ 1984 genre-bending noir road movie: The Hit. Tim Roth debuts as a kinetic, cocky, green criminal. John Hurt is a world weary hit man. Terence Stamp (RIP) is the wily “grass”. Laura del Sol is the underestimated wild card. Brilliant cast, amazing film. #criterion #criterionchannel

A letter written by Danish Staff Sgt Henrik Bager to former U.S. Ambassador to Denmark, Rufus Gifford. Every American—especially every active enlisted and veteran should read this. The betrayal of our NATO brothers & sisters makes me deeply ashamed. I’m almost glad Dad died before he could see it.

Letter from Staff Sgt. Henrik Bager addressed to U.S. former ambassador to Denmark, Rufus Gifford.
Dear Rufus Gifford,
I'm not writing as a politician.
Not as an analyst.
I'm writing as a Danish Afghanistan and Iraq veteran.
And yes - this brings tears to my eyes.
When the U.S. today calls Denmark a poor ally, it feels like a slap in the face to those of us who were actually there.
After 9/11, Denmark did not hesitate.
We didn't debate polls.
We didn't calculate politics.
We put on our gear.
We said goodbye to our families.
We kissed our children goodnight and hoped we'd see them again.
We stood side by side with American soldiers.
We patrolled together.
We covered each other.
We bled together.
And we lost people.
Danish soldiers never came home because we took the alliance seriously - not as words, but as a promise between soldiers.
So when Denmark is called disloyal, it doesn't just hit a country.
It hits those of us who wore the uniform.
It hits the fallen.
It hits the families still paying the price.
We don't expect thanks.
We don't expect applause.
But we do expect honesty.
And respect for history.
Denmark was there when it mattered.
And we were not half-hearted.
A soldier never forgets who stood by his side.
Nations shouldn't either.
Thanks for your voice, you have the respect from the danish people.

Donald Trump wants to build his “Dream Military” with a colossal chunk of tax and tariff revenue—the taxes and tariffs that Americans pay. He’s doing ALL the things he campaigned against and MAGA continues to be perfectly okay with whatever Daddy Trump tells them he wants to do. Make it make sense.

After long and difficult negotiations with Senators, Congressmen, Secretaries, and other Political Representatives, I have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion Dollars.
This will allow us to build the "Dream Military" that we have long been entitled to and, more importantly, that will keep us SAFE and SECURE, regardless of foe. If it weren't for the tremendous numbers being produced by Tariffs from other Countries, many of which, in the past, have "ripped off" the United States at levels never seen before, I would stay at the $1 Trillion Dollar number but, because of Tariffs, and the tremendous Income that they bring, amounts being generated, that would have been unthinkable in the past (especially just one year ago during the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration, the Worst President in the History of our Country!), we are able to easily hit the $1.5 Trillion Dollar number
