Israel says it killed Al Jazeera journalist Israel's military said it killed Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al Sharif in a strike on Gaza City on Sunday, accusing him of heading a Hamas cell.

The IDF is claiming Anas Al Sharif was a Hamas leader (spoiler: it's a lie.)

Fleeing One Step Ahead of Fascism The chilling warnings of Europe in the 1930s: "Reality is stronger than all our wishes"

As I worked over the winter on my new book, there was one chapter that felt particularly heavyβ€”the accounts of Jewish refugee scientists fleeing Hitler's Europe and how democracy succumbed to fascism. Much of this feels too familiar right now: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/fleeing-on...

In honor of #MaybeHappyEnding turning its back on AA Broadway actors, my pitch to the universe - I want a jukebox musical adaptation of Joel Kim Booster's FIRE ISLAND.

Three guaranteed AA leading male roles per cast in the most fun adaptation of Pride & prejudice ever.

Please give this to me.

A story about Stephen Colbert I’ve never shared before. Years ago I was hospitalized for a month. One of toughest things I ever had to
do. Confined, monitored, my health a mystery with no solution, cycling through roommates & their families who needed miracles, or would go off to surgery & vanish…

I have no words. Everyone prepared for the constitutional crisis of the President defying the SCOTUS. The crisis is the SCOTUS being fully aligned with Trump’s vision of presidential power. So here we are.

If the overlap of youngest Gen Xers and eldest millennials are Xennials, and the millennial/Gen Z version of that are Zennials, is Gen Alpha/Beta the Alphabet generation?

Literal Nazis inside the Administration but the media still takes what they say about racism and antisemitism at face value.

Yeah, it's basically wondering why YOU couldn't find a lifeboat and then realizing it's because you're on the Titanic.

It's not just you struggling to get traction.

It's not just you who hasn't had a general or a staffing meeting in months, if not longer.

It's not just you wondering if quite phone is a reflection of your talent or worth.

Sometimes you do everything right, and there's nothing else to do but wait.

Dear TV writers,

The Writers' Guild of America West released their employment analysis of the 2023-2024 year and it's... pretty damn bleak. Almost half of available staffing positions disappeared in a year.

This sucks. But also? This means it's not JUST you.

"Think about a bank robber β€” walks in, their face is covered,” Hochul said. β€œSomeone assaults someone on the subway, they can get away with it, despite the fact that we have cameras, because they are masked.”

Yes, because the most grievous parts of those crimes were that the criminals wore masks.

Gov. Hochul is pushing a last-minute mask ban in state budget talks The governor has expressed support for restrictions in protest settings, while many protesters say they need to conceal their identities to avoid retribution.

New Yorkers, please call your state rep, state senator, and Kathy Hochul and tell them NO MASK BANS. This garbage proposal would kill people. We're on the verge of a measles epidemic and this terrible governor is pushing this? NO.
