Hi.
I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold.
I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

Contextually, he's talking about military service members. Which makes this even all the more perplexing as someone who was a draft dodger.

Avatar over Expedition 33 is a slap in the face, but the Grammy's are also such a joke overall anyway.
Grammy nominations for best video game soundtrack have dropped, but notably don't include Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. On the other hand, jazz cover group 8-Bit Big Band is nominated in categories for jazz and best arrangement. gameinformer.com/2025/11/10/b...

UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

A fair review from Eurogamer that does call out specifically the use of Gen-AI in the game.
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

I do really think that part of America's entire democratic problem is how elections are 'too big'. They take too long in America, and there's never any threat of a government confidence collapse.

It mirrors the Renaissance era moment of a Lord telling their offspring "Religion is a tool to control the masses".
Like how eye opening that moment to understand your Duke father has kept you from the 'Church' specifically so you won't be indoctrinated and understand how to wield a social weapon.

Didn't see this at the time, but it definitely speaks to the social engineering bit of re-feudalisation.
The monied classes will have functional, literate offspring with access to the High Arts, while the serfs will be socially & intellectually zombified via relentless, force-fed audiovisual slop.
