A map of the Middle East with casualties. It is done by country, and as a result doesn't show how many of the victims in Gulf States are guest workers.

WTAF. And this is after he fired all the Iran experts. Jeezus.
I wrote about the problematic history of the Oscars recognizing the work of Black directors.

Wow! Congrats to you dad! π

Politically, this is incredibly stupid, but as a policy matter itβs also incredibly stupid.
The Democrats!
Devastating reporting. Like RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, and Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth is reshaping his department to indiscriminately kill tons and tons of children.
A major throughline of the Trump administration.
Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Alright, Iβve seen enough βBut why?!?β quotes of this Iβm going to give the world a quick primer on *one part* of how the DoD works.

"Today we revisit a 1978 ambient masterpiece that helped launch the genre through its technological savvy and its soft heart."
a fantastic essay on Brian Eno's Ambient 1 β Music for Airports:
