There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

Florida leads the nation in capital punishment—more than all other states combined. This follows a record-setting 19 executions in 2025. The state permits death sentences with a non-unanimous 8-4 jury vote, the lowest threshold in the U.S.

“I don’t know why the President of the US behaves like this toward his allies. It’s not the first time. It is disappointing that he does not show the same determination with the enemies of the West and the US, whose leaders he instead treats with far greater indulgence.” - Italy PM Giorgia Meloni

Warnock: Right before they passed that ugly bill that cut $1 trillion out of medicaid, the Speaker of the House joined with other legislators and said a prayer, and then they went and voted for that bill. I just want to know what was in that prayer.

1/6 I have to laugh a bit when I hear people call Sanders a "Socialist." Mainly because they have no idea what Socialism is and think of Russia. That's Marxism-Leninism Socialism; it all belongs to the government.

The AI industry rips off artists, remixes and regurgitates their work, strips it of any cultural or historical context, spits out fascist slop..."that, my friends, is how you get 99% of workers across an entire industry to dislike your technology." And lots of the world.
What so many have experienced personally has been confirmed by a new study: AI has been a disaster for working artists.
