This is what you get from a Malignant Narcissist suffering from dementia. Just flat out cruelty he does not give a fuck about any Iranian innocent, men, women and especially children.

Alarm bells are ringing in the Horn of Africa. Farms are no longer yielding, pests are spreading, and tropical diseases are emerging. Climate change is real, and it’s destroying lives. #ClimateCrisis #GlobalAction

Correction notice from the New York Times reads: “A correction was made on March 13, 2026: An earlier version of this article described incorrectly John F. Kennedy Jr.’s religious affiliation. Mr. Kennedy was a Roman Catholic, not a “WASP” (an epithet used to refer to white Anglo-Saxon Protestants).”

This is one of the funniest corrections I’ve ever read

8 Years Later, Tig Notaro Proved Jett Reno Is One Of Star Trek's Greatest Characters "Not a Captain!"

One of the greatest gifts Alex Kurtzman gave us was bringing his friend, Tig Notaro, into Star Trek in 2018. Jett Reno is the unsung hero of #StarTrek: #StarfleetAcademy's finale and epitomizes the best things about Star Trek. 🖖

Here’s part of the video where Bessent was pulled away because he was needed by Trump and returned an hour and a half later visibly shaken. This is where people were possibly wondering if information came in about Bibi or his brother, etc.

Kennedy Center’s President Is Leaving After Tumultuous Year

Now that he has nearly destroyed the Kennedy Center, doing damage to other DC institutions along the way - the National Symphony, the Washington Opera - Ric Grenell is leaving, perhaps to ruin something else

The Dumb Reason Trump Keeps Calling His Iran War a ‘Little Excursion’ Describing his war as an ‘excursion’ is the latest way Trump is screwing things up, not worrying about the details, and refusing to correct course.

Have you wondered why Donald Trump keeps calling his disastrous war on Iran an "excursion"?

…According to close sources, it's because Trump is confusing the term “military incursion” with a "military excursion."

Amateur Archaeologist Couple Is Excavating Ancient Outhouses Buried in Philadelphia Amateur archaeologists Matt and Melissa Dunphy are excavating outhouses, dating back to the 1700s, to uncover Philadelphia’s history.

🚨 Do not do this! 🚨 “Amateur archaeology” without someone actually trained in the field is just digging, y’all. Let professionals do what they were trained for many years to do. Also these object aren’t “ancient”—they are 18th century. people.com/amateur-arch...

Nearly six months behind bars. No bail. When they finally dismissed the charges they released her in North Dakota with no winter clothes & no means of getting back home to Tennessee. They upended this woman's life.

Yemen’s Houthis have announced they’ll be joining the war in support of Iran shortly. Analysts expect them to shut down another strait, Bab El-Mandeb, which will close the Suez Canal. The global economy hangs by a thread.

Damn, great comparison

Just leaving this here (again)

It is hard to overstate, for non-lawyers, just how milquetoast the ABA is in normal times. It’s supposed to be boring insurance lawyers leading workshops with boring tax lawyers, trying to drum up business.

A pissed off ABA is like dentists manning the barricades and singing Le Marseillaise.

I have abandoned Google for search but who knows how much I am using Google elsewhere?

And what's truly remarkable is they've actively degraded the products which were initially created to streamline the entire digital experience and make it easier to navigate. Google's entire foundational product was built on being the superior and clutter-free alternative to the chaos of Yahoo.

The Colorado River will deliver less than a third of normal water flow this summer. And, Rocky Mountain ski season has been disastrously bad this year.

Delays in awards and funding calls worry NIH-funded researchers Many programs may be pushed into the next fiscal year, and some could face funding gaps
