This was always going to be the next step. There are no trans players in the WNBA so instead they're going after cis women who are insufficiently feminine for them.

Just 10 billionaires have already poured over $600 MILLION into this year's midterms. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. If you're wondering what the real threat to "election integrity" is, it's Big Money.

A new biography of one of America’s greatest artists, Stephen Sondheim, has arrived, written by Dan Okrent, focused on the art, the bio and hot gossip. As I demonstrate in my classes, Sondheim completely altered the American musical—for the good. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/m...

Stephen Sondheim by Daniel Okrent review – a superb biography of the musical master

Packed with gossip and incident, this book is also a fascinating study in the gestation of genius

America is not “a nation that calls to God in prayer.” It’s a nation where people are free to pray, worship, or reject religion entirely without government telling them which choice is “American.”

a handmade embroidery artwork titled "Manually embroidered cats" created by artist @ladyserebrennikova.

It features three cats with intricate, unique patterns on their bodies.
The artist notes that these are manually embroidered and sometimes sold with baby cats included.
The designs are often inspired by traditional art patterns like folk embroidery or floral themes.
