Wow… Theatre.
I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.
If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes
"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor," he said.

For someone who's a sentimentalist musically I find it curious his inability to come up with a genuine Holiday Song.

Is Paul McCartney's 'Wonderful Christmastime' simply… horrible?
In the decades since its release, "Wonderful Christmastime" has become a seasonal staple beloved by some but loathed by others.

On December 1, 1971, John Lennon and Yoko Ono released “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” on transparent green vinyl.

![John: 'Happy Xmas (War Is Over)' we wrote together.
Nothing more to say on that.
It says it: 'War is over if you want it.'
Because it was still that same message, the idea that somebody is either going to give us power or [has] taken our power or has made us go to war or not made you go to war or the president did this to us.
We are just as responsible as the man who presses the button. It's that idea of God in the sky is a separate thing, you know?
It's all that separation. It's all the same thing: nationalities, religions, authority. It's all the same garbage. Aslong as we or as long as people imagine that it's something people are doing to them, they have no control, thenThey have no control.Yoko: It was July 1971 in New York City. We were having our morning coffee in a hotel roomfacing the park. Then, still in the middle of our breakfast, we got this idea to write an Xmas song. We were fast workers, so the song was born by the time we finished our last morning coffee. That made John feel better. 'This is going to be bigger than "White Christmas" " you'll see.' He wiggled his nose again, this time with satisfaction.
It only became big atter John's passing in 1980.
John: There's always somebody geting shot, so every year you can play it and there's always somebody being tortured or shot somewhere, so the lyrics stand in that respect..... I've always wanted to write something that would be a Christmas record that would last forever, you know?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:zkg45oms246t4uzrs65pghrx/bafkreiblyruehe2nrwqnwuw2bfrsc2bdopbgz6wjo7plce6xlf6up5qjmq@jpeg)

Like so many things in the Tech industry it’s an irrelevant concept used to increase revenue by making it seem necessary.
My company recently unveiled in-house AI tools. Management's encouraging everyone to use them (to justify the probable eyewatering costs)
Meanwhile the database that everyone does constantly use is held together with gum and the development team's tears
Meanwhile the database that everyone does constantly use is held together with gum and the development team's tears
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

1 million per cent agree. Same with record stores. And thrifting.
The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

This “war?” With Venezuela is a ruse. It’s done to give multiple opportunities to the ExRealityTVHost to instill authoritarian controls to our country.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

As a young man in Theatre, Stoppard was an inspiration. “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” was such a cleaver premise. I had conceptually came up with a staging that produced It and “Hamlet” simultaneously with a curtain separating the 2 plays that would rise and lower as they intersected. RIP

There’s been little actual journalism since 9-11 when the 4 MSM networks became regime spokespersons. ExRealityTVHost pushed it deeper. Idiocracy meets 1984.
It is truly disgusting how trump keeps disrespecting women journalists in those press briefings, and not ONE other journalist calls him out.
They should all walk out when he tells a reporter "Quiet, Piggy," or shouts "YOU'RE STUPID" at another.
