What's with these radio program directors who stack song rotations with heaps of No Doubt and Imagine Dragons? Are they legally required to put these bands in rotations or something?

Book cover of "The Apache Wars" by Paul Andrew Hutton. The design features a historical photograph of Apache figures in traditional dress standing in an arid landscape. The central figure appears to be a tribal leader, with other Apache individuals positioned around him. Some are holding what appear to be weapons.

The cover employs a striking gradient background that transitions from teal blue on the left to coral red on the right, giving it a dramatic, historical atmosphere. Four white stars accent the corners around the elegant script of "The" above the main title.

The bold, white, serif-font title "APACHE WARS" dominates the center of the cover. Below it, in smaller white text, is the subtitle: "THE HUNT FOR GERONIMO, THE APACHE KID, and the CAPTIVE BOY WHO STARTED the LONGEST WAR IN AMERICAN HISTORY". The subtitle references key historical figures including Geronimo, the famous Apache leader, and mentions the book's focus on what became the longest-running military conflict in American history.

At the top, a quote from the Chicago Tribune reads: "AN EPIC TALE FILLED WITH HOMERIC SCENES AND UNFORGETTABLE CHARACTERS." The author's name, PAUL ANDREW HUTTON, appears at the bottom in white capital letters.

This historical non-fiction work examines the quarter-century struggle that dominated the history of the American Southwest and northern Mexico, told through the eyes of the men and women who experienced it. The book particularly focuses on Mickey Free, a mixed-blood warrior whose kidnapping reportedly sparked the conflict.

a senior black pup sits on a plastic chair at an outdoor table at a restaurant with navy gingham tablecloths. he’s looking very excitedly at a plate with a cheeseburger and fries, as if he knows this is all for him.

This is Sweeper. His human couldn't be with him on his 10th adoptaversary. They planned ahead and got their friends to take him out to lunch, who were more than happy to make sure Sweeper still felt celebrated. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

Quick stop in Northbrook, IL today to check out the giant inflatable Trump chicken and another Saturday of Tesla protests.

100+ people out here in front of the Tesla dealership waving signs to a constant stream of honks from drivers on the highway. Folks are chanting and ringing cowbells.

For years the right dismissed the claim that Trump does Putin’s bidding as conspiratorial derangement.

Zelensky didn’t disrespect the U.S. He didn’t disrespect Trump. He’s losing his aid for disrespecting Putin, the man slaughtering his people, which Trump and Vance took as a personal affront.

Mainstream media lies. 

They will contort the truth to make you believe in a bogeyman. In falling for it, you’re giving up your God given ability to think for yourself.

Wikipedia has been ideologically captured for years

It's important that this is finally coming to light

The most extreme bias is probably against Israel

Foundation AI models are being trained on this biased data as if it's ground truth
