Absolute shocker of a rights grab - academics may want to push back hard
The BBC cut a section of Akinola Davies Jr.’s BAFTAs acceptance speech in the live TV broadcast:
“Archive your loved ones. Archive your stories yesterday, today, and forever. For Nigeria, for London, the Congo, Sudan, free Palestine.”
As someone who lived in late communist Poland, I can tell you that Western solidarity meant a lot to us. Iranian students deserve our support -- even if it's 'just words'.

They tell oil and gas companies that "AI" is the solution and tell us that "AI" is the solution to climate change while killing the planet to build more data centers. And so-called academic journals just publish these propaganda-as-a-service articles www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.
BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.
The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Probably lots more because we had a kick-ass $1 theater in my town and we went to so. many. movies there. (back in my day...)
