I would erase the Jurassic World movies from existence and make Alfonso Cuarón do a proper reboot
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

The people I know in Indiana always complain about the price of food in Chicago, but if you’re a normal, grown ass adult who buys and cooks food from the grocery store, that really just is not true

Cannot possibly dream up a worse use case for an LLM than this
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

One of the things that the “immigration debate” in the UK really reveals is how little people actually know about how other people live. So much of immigration policy fails to work, even on its own terms, because it’s trying to solve problems that mostly exist in peoples heads

The Long, Thorny Path to Dasha Nekrasova’s Hollywood Shunning
For years, the 'Succession' actress awkwardly balanced a mainstream acting career with her controversial 'Red Scare' podcast. But an invitation to white nationalist Nick Fuentes proved a step too far.

When I say they’re trying to engineer their own nativist blood libel, this is it. It’s JD vance going on podcasts and asserting minorities torture and eat your pets while citing crime statistics as evidence that ethnic cleaning works as they torture and rape immigrants in camps. This is our nazism.
Here’s a great example of Homeland Security and Tricia McLaughlin propaganda not being true. They’re going around claiming credit for Chicago experiencing the fewest summer murders since 1965. That was true and reported locally before Midway Blitz even began.

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Chicagoans never stop. I was just watching a live stream of a press conference held by community members in front of FBI headquarters. In the rain in the dark. Umbrellas at hand they are calling for the release of 6 people taken by ICE, 3 also arrested by CPD. They never stop fighting.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
