This story absolutely destroyed me. CW for suicide and the absurdly hateful policies of the Trump administration, but it should be mandatory reading. These people are being pushed past their limits, and the consequences affect us all.

Just a reminder that these Haitian immigrants in Springfield -- who came here legally, did everything they were asked to do and more -- became a target of federal crackdowns because the white nationalist vice president shamelessly spread racist lies about them.

Got MAESTRO on Switch2 for my birthday - exceptionally fun rhythm conducting game. Great variety of scores, a real musical education for my daughter! She likes the Jazz standards - tried Caravan but her timing was a bit off and I accidentally threw a chair at her head.

Why am I being fed ads on Youtube (still image as I scroll through feed) for cigarettes which can be delivered anywhere in Australia in 3 days? Advertising tobacco in Australia is illegal. I've reported this ad multiple times. You're telling me YouTube's AI can't immediately recognise cigarettes?

All winter I've not been wearing blue jeans because the pair I had - 38 waist, usually very comfortable - were feeling unreasonably tight, which was quite depressing. This morning I realised I had a pair of 36 and a 38, the latter buried at the bottom of the drawer. I do not feel smart.

As the owner of several AMC theater franchises, you can imagine I'm extremely left wing. But I bet you didn't realize I'm so left wing that I'm willing to bleed thousands of dollars every time I show the Odyssey to an empty IMAX theater to create the impression that a black actress is pretty.

Chris Nolan: "What if I adapted one of the oldest stories of antiquity and made it blindingly relevant" The Odyssey bowled me over. An epic fable about the death of kindness and the nature of war, delivered like a horror movie. The destruction of life as desecration of the gods. Whatta flick.
