See, having digital and physical options is great. People can just buy whatever they prefer. It's not really a contest. It shouldn't be! We should have options! All these game-key cards do is remove those options. That's not good! For anyone! We all lose an option. We gain nothing!

Guys, I have bad news: Lowering tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 65% still destroys the economy. It appears totally lost on people just how absurd 145% is. This is like saying we're no longer going to shoot you 15 times. Only 7 times. You are still dead, but please thank us.

BIG LIE: “if you make it in America, you won’t pay the tariff”…. Why is this false? Because while the Florida orange 🍊 itself isn’t tariffed—all the equipment needed like hoses, tractor, bags, netting, labels, truck to move the orange, store shelves, lightbulbs, refrigeration units—will be tariffed.

For about a year, I worked with a retired British academic named Alasdair Spark to solve a mystery: where did the original photo from the end of The Shining come from, and where/when was it captured? Last week, we finally found the answer. www.instagram.com/p/DID43LBNPD...

Is now a good time to say that people convicted of crimes deserve rights, due process, and not to be deported, let alone to a third country slave prison

One of the world’s most chilling ruins is the Ploutonion at Hierapolis, otherwise known as “the Gate to Hell”. Here crowds once watched priests lead animal sacrifices down into a cave, where they died mysteriously as if dragged down to the underworld. And no one knew how they did it until recently.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Republican congressman Keith Self introduced transgender Representative Sarah McBride as "Mr. McBride." Sarah snapped back and called him madam chair. Dem Congressman Bill Keating went off on Rep. Self and adjourned the meeting over his lack of decorum and purposeful targeting of Sarah McBride.

This article proves how incredibly consequential the choice to resist instead of rolling over can be. These brave people are helping everyone, far beyond their own agency’s reach. Let’s all learn this lesson (Article also does a good job contextualizing Trump/Musk lies every time they’re relevant)

A very rare piece of Sesame Street history has been found. This animation was produced in 1973, but never aired on the domestic show. It features Etienne Delessert's visualization of Kermit the Frog's song "Bein' Green" set to the Frank Sinatra version of the song.
