yes, especially: "we are yet to find alternative ..."
I'm halfway through season 1 of Landman. It's wildly entertaining but I find myself yelling "that's not true" at all the fossil fuel propaganda. Anyone else?

I realized they can't make a show like that about renewable energy because the jeopardy is lower and there aren't as many injuries or deaths.

There seem to be a lot of people under the impression that if Trump is impeached and removed for treason, that the VP and his whole cabinet go with him. That’s not correct. You have to impeach and remove one at a time. Art II Section 4 simply lists all the offices eligible for impeachment.

London is the undisputed sporting capital of the world 🏆

I’m excited to look ahead to 2026, from the NBA London Game and the Laver Cup to the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. I’ll continue to work with partners to secure more global events for our capital.

would love to understand how wapo landed on “at-large” as the language of choice here. i don’t think i’ll be saying that.
ICE is moving away from focusing on arresting migrants at local jails to tracking them down in communities as the Trump administration presses to increase deportations, a Post analysis found.

The result: a huge surge of at-large arrests.

Fom Syria to Lebanon and Israel to Gaza, hundreds of thousands of people have been killed or wounded in more than a decade of wars in the Middle East. Among some in the region, exhausted by conflict, a quiet resolve is forming to find another way.

Amazed and touched that my essay, "Blood Ties,” was included in this lineup with such fantastic company.
Through the disasters of this year, our writers delivered fearless analysis and creative resilience—refusing to compromise on fundamental values of justice and humanity in the face of brazen cruelty and democratic decline.
