A couple fascinating things I learned reporting this:

1. Much of the plant life on the field was people in costume.
2. The finale required 9,852 theatrical pyrotechnics.
3. That was a real couple that got married during the Lady Gaga number.

So many more details here in the piece. Go read!

404 Media just had an ad during the #SuperBowl! We Googled "smallest TV markets in the United States" and bought an ad for $2,550 that only ran in Ottumwa, Iowa, population 25,000. That still counts

stay safe, wolf
There’s a wolf in LA for the first time in 100 years. A collared gray wolf entered the mountains of north Los Angeles County yesterday. Known as “BEY03F” she traveled hundreds of miles from her pack in Plumas County crossing highways, mountains, creeks and valleys.

As importantly it will scare others from going to work there

And this is why #ZackPolanski & the #GreenParty are soaring in the polls.

He speaks for us all. He genuinely cares.

#Labour are running scared. #Farage is too 🐔 to debate Zack.

The establishment parties don't care - they're NOT on our side.

Listen to @zackpolanski.bsky.social

If he can speak up on behalf of you and me and make a rational case for a #WealthTax on the obscenely rich why the f*ck can’t Labour?

Because they’re owned — locked stock and well scraped barrel — by those same elites that resent chipping in.
