'Evita' On Broadway? Maybe, But Not With Outdoor Balcony Scene Andrew Lloyd Webber isn't ruling out a Broadway transfer of the hit London Evita revival, but he's drawing the line at an outdoor balcony scene.

If Evita comes to Broadway, don't expect a repeat of the outdoor "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" that wowed them in the West End. Some true words from Andrew Lloyd Webber: "We can’t do that in New York. I mean, something awful could happen. We have gun laws in Britain.”

The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."

Holy shit - this would be very, very bad:
"The databases, called β€œNumident” and the β€œMaster Death File,” include records for more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names."

If we're going to do "when has automation ever made people's lives easier" discourse, I encourage everyone to read book 1 of Caro's LBJ series, and in particular the part about what happened once the Texas Hill Country got electricity and people could suddenly put their clothes in washing machines.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

These pediatrician moms have a shared message: Release all children in immigration detention They didn’t know each other at the beginning of the year. Now these medical professionals text daily in their effort to advocate for the well-being of migrant children.

β€œHe looked pale, he looked sickly. He looked like a completely different child,” she said. β€œWhen I saw that image, my doctor brain turned on. I was like, this kid is sick. He needs medical attention.”

Mamdani Chooses His Words Carefully After Alleged Terror Attack

One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

NC furniture maker is going out of business, lays off 200 near Greensboro Prepac said competition from β€œlow-cost Chinese imports” contributed to its closure.

Everyone wants to say that this furniture maker's move to the US and subsequent demise is about trade policy but then there's this: "Prepac was locally owned until the Toronto-based private equity firm TorQuest Partners acquired it in 2019." www.newsobserver.com/news/busines...

A wildlife refuge in Washington hired a bullfrog catcher because the invasive bullfrogs are threatening an Oregon spotted frog or whatever but THE POINT IS I can't stop laughing at the picture of him they chose to put on Facebook. That man has two armfuls of Kermits. He is a Muppet villain.

This sign critiquing Admiral Ted Carter for his many compromises that harmed OSU students, faculty, staff, alumni - on SB1, closing diversity centers & programs long in advance of legislative mandates, banning chalking, sending police to crackdown student protests, lasted longer than he did at OSU.
