It must be hard for DMs to have journalists in your D&D party because we’re professionally trained question askers and probably grill you on a bunch of shit you weren’t prepared to think about.

OpenAI's Sora video generator places 3 watermarks on its AI generated videos: the top-left or top-right corner, the center-right, and the bottom-left corner.
Each of these Facebook videos has 3 caption overlays which just happen to be placed in these 3 locations.

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

7. Foul grifting is real. The Kings were handsy, but rarely do you see a team lose the free throw battle by 28. The Lakers, led by Austin Reaves' 22 attempts, took a whopping 46 free throws to just 18 for the Kings. So. Many. Free. Throws.

Good for them. If they didn’t give billionaires tax cuts and those billionaires actually paid their fair share of taxes instead of giving millions to a fascist dictator to DESTROY the White House, we could ACTUALLY fix the housing crisis, end food insecurity and have universal healthcare.

I would vote without question for anyone with the fucking stones to do this while refusing to 1) throw trans people under the bus and 2) fund Israel's genocide
This is why I think the next Democratic president needs to use the EXACT tools that SCOTUS has handed Trump. Don't leave room for any distinctions.
Impound funds for deportation. Give ICE the USAID treatment. Refuse to collect government-backed debt. Purge MAGA loyalists from the executive branch.

Looks like the Mikeno (one of the ships in the Global Sumud Flotilla sailing to Gaza) might actually make it.
Roughly half the ships have been intercepted by the Israeli military, but the rest are continuing toward Gaza. globalsumudflotilla.org/tracker/
