A pretty good list.
Nice piece on the 60 most important (but not necessarily best) #StarTrek stories ever. Their #1 choice would normally piss me off, but they make a good case as to why. (And it’s not because it’s a good episode) Also, love that Pigs in Space and Galaxy Quest are here www.inverse.com/entertainmen...

Rainbow Lorikeets Australia
Diet: in canopies feeding on nectar and pollen.
They frequently descend to grassy fields in large, highly energetic social flocks.
Known as the "clowns" of the parrot world, they are incredibly social. On the ground, chase each other, and are playful and show off.

If tech firms such as Meta, Google and TikTok did not give the option to turn off algorithms, they should face "substantial" penalties

Perhaps Seth MacFarlane was prophetic in 2022...

Dolly Parton played her long dead self in his Midnight Blue episode of The Orville...

In it, she & her 9 to 5 served as philosophical inspiration to an oppressed people to rise up, throw away the shackles...

Maybe Dolly can still help us!

I am sorry to disagree but this is exactly who the United States are. The people of the United States elected the current president not once but twice. This is exactly a reflection of the United States
I am astonished by the actions that are being tolerated. This is not reflective of the United States. The U.S. government is behaving similarly to aggressive nations like China, Russia, or North Korea. 😠😡🤬

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.

When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
