I like words, movies and coffee. Sometimes I want to go far and see far. I believe in the long run, but I also appreciate the flash of inspiration.

Rough start to camp for me, but strong start for Harrison Butker and his fellow specialists and their early arrival on the field. Pro tip for aspiring sports journalists: don’t leave your credential in the car when you’re trying to get there early. I fall to 0-4 #MattVsChiefs

Epstein matters, but there's a much greater story of American moral depravity that ought to be leading the news America is building an archipelago of squalid concentration camps. No one knows where this will end. The time to scream 'Never again'? Now! My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/us-c...

Andrea Pitzer literally wrote the book on concentration camps. I talked to her about how they came to America.

Unprecedentedly illegal hostage-taking of a private educational institution by a runaway authoritarian executive. And the collective national response is either yawning or applause or cowardly silence. We used to be a serious country governed by laws & a constitution. I guess it was a good run.

If this was Joe Biden, there would be think pieces about how the president’s staff is clearly failing him by enabling his semi-senile delusions. But oh well, I guess.

Trump lawyer and deputy AG ain’t meeting Ghislaine Maxwell to listen to “uncomfortable truths.” He’s there to deliver a message—to keep her quiet. If you don’t believe that I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

While most financial assets have recovered sharply from the early April jitters, the dollar continues to struggle, as reflected in its DXY index (see below). Moreover, it’s not easy to pinpoint what might reverse this trend any time soon. #economy #markets #dollar

New analysis from the data labs team at @pewresearch.org puts hard numbers behind a trend many online publishers have come to fear: "Google users who encounter an AI summary are less likely to click on links to other websites than users who do not see one." www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...
Bar chart showing that Google users are less likely to click on a link to another website when they encounter a search page with an AI summary than when they encounter a search page *without* such a summary. The chart is based on a Pew Research Center analysis.
