All 435 seats in the US House of Representatives will be up for grabs in the November 2026 elections. Some 35 of the 100 Senate seats will also be contested. Reuters/Ipsos polls regularly ask registered voters to weigh in. Follow the latest results: reut.rs/4nDDhYg

Harvard Gazette:
Gazette: โ€œYou are the mother of two In ten years you have produced three novels and two short-story collections. Can you talk about your process and how you manage work and family?โ€
Groff: โ€œI understand that this is a question of vital importance to a lot of people, particularly to other mothers who are artists trying to get their work done, and know that I feel for everyone in the struggle. But until I see a male writer asked that question, I am going to respectfully decline to answer it.โ€

I am begging you to keep using your brain for tasks rather than genAI.

Thinking and doing are good for you. You don't want atrophy of muscles, so why would you want the brain equivalent?

this marketing decision from huge corporations going hard at LLM products has just been outrageously corrosive to public discussion, and i'm going to be angry about it forever

Please, PLEASE, I am begging you as both a parent and someone who is sick of all this THIS, go vote for your school boards. Even if you don't have kids, that's how these reactionary dipshits got their feet in, that's where the book bans and library cuts start.

"A lot of the people complaining last year were from the creative industry who were just afraid"

OK, Coca-Cola, let's see what would happen if someone stole your formulas and started selling them under their own, cheaper brand. Because a lot of us aren't afraid; we're FUCKING PISSED at being robbed

Live your life in such a way so that when people open social media first thing on a Tuesday morning that the first 20 posts they see arenโ€™t listings of all the reasons they are glad you are dead.

The ease of suppressing votes by getting polling places temporarily closed on election day is a good reason to go to universal vote-by-mail...

#sheith fandom please help! i was looking for a fic that may have been deleted. i dont remember the title or author but plot was as follows: established relationship, team made fun of keith bc they think he's the one that drags Shiro aside on sexcapades but it's Shiro who is the dragging keith along

OpenAI pirated large numbers of books and used them to train models.

OpenAI then deleted the dataset with the pirated books, and employees sent each other messages about doing so.

A lawsuit could now force the company to pay $150,000 per book, adding up to billions in damages.

Everyone vote for the most progressive candidate you can today so Dick Cheney has to watch his nightmare unfold on land as he sinks down into hell

Itโ€™s disheartening to see Teen Vogue dissolved into Vogue and its political team let go. For years, it was one of the few mainstream spaces that made room for honest, radical commentary on justice, inequality & the world we actually live in. Iโ€™m grateful it gave me a home for so many of my op-eds

1. Campaign on big issues that are directly relevant to your voters

2. Don't get distracted from point one

3. Present as a decent human with manageable baggage

4. Don't be old as fuck.

Go forth and do likewise

Telly idea I think would be genuinely great: Endangered Crafts Showdown. Get a bunch of expert craftspeople - potters, woodworkers, sewers, etc - and have them do a different craft from the endangered crafts list each week: Clog making! Rattan furniture weaving! Welsh vernacular thatching!

Do we need humanities graduates to deliver the industrial strategy? Policymakers should take a broad view of the value of degree courses when building our future workforce, says Charlotte Hallahan

'Study in SHAPE disciplines โ€“ social sciences, humanities and the arts โ€“ develops the skills that underpin a modern workforce: critical thinking, communication and creativity. These are not peripheral to the industrial strategy but essential to it.' 1/3
