RT @Indian_Bronson: Btw even China and Iran don’t do this. Only North Korea does this.

oh god

Bull Durham is 38 years old today. One of the greatest sports films ever, funny, smart, endlessly quotable, and the whole cast is perfect. Brilliant film. Love this: Costner doesn’t even blink.

$300 billion to Iran under any circumstances is a disaster. Like offered the Marshall Plan to rebuild Germany while the Nazis were still in power

As America celebrates 250 years, our newest specialty livery honors the selfless contributions of our nation’s veterans, including the 8,300 military veterans, of which 1,500 are active members of the National Guard and Reserve forces currently at United. Painted on both a 737-800 and 787-10, you can track the Stars and Stripes planes with these tail numbers: N91007 and N78285

The strange thing about modern literature is that it talks endlessly about identity while producing almost no memorable characters.

Universal mental-health screening in K-12 produces up to 90% false positives. A 19-year RCT on school-based mental-health services found zero gains in test scores or attendance. Just more kids funneled into treatment, with no way to tell whether they needed it. Kids in real emotional distress need real clinical support. But universal programs do the opposite. They spread resources thin, divert attention from the few in genuine crisis, medicalize ordinary distress, and convince healthy kids they're sick. So why did the House Appropriations Committee just vote to lock ~70% of the federal "Safe Schools" fund—built for physical security, violence prevention, and emergency preparedness—into mental-health grants with this track record? Congress should shut this down. Schools will never be equipped or accountable for clinical work. Stop treating them like mental-health clinics. @ManhattanInst fellow @CarolynGorman_ in @CityJournal city-journal.org/article/sch…

A Curaçao 🇨🇼 fan was spotted dancing with an American 🇺🇸 police officer during a party hosted by Curaçaoan fans😂….. These guys can make anyone dance 😂🔥🔥

Fun fact: Exactly zero of these people were in office in 2018, when FIFA announced the World Cup was coming to the US, literally NONE of it occurs in New York City or New York State, and the Governor of New Jersey just got into office. These people did nothing.

In a new video, Jo Frost, aka Supernanny, warns that some modern parents are hindering their kids’ independence by choosing short-term convenience over teaching basic life skills. The Instagram post featuring the video is filled with comments from teachers agreeing with her that it’s a growing concern. @Jo_Frost

"this action has taken the best models away from defenders, created market uncertainty, and risked America’s AI leadership without any real risk to justify it." "We, the undersigned executives and technical leaders from across the United States, write to you to ask you to lift the export control directives on Anthropic’s Fable and Mythos large language models" "To pull the best capabilities away from defenders without a good reason when our adversaries are rapidly advancing is dangerous." "Can be replicated on GPT-5.5, Opus, Sonnet and even Chinese models like Kimi 2.7. The justification for this unprecedented action was that Fable provides a unique “uplift” of capabilities beyond other AI models, but AI has been finding bugs and generating working exploits at superhuman levels since last year."

30 years later and "Clear and Present Danger" remains unmatched. No capeshit. No quips. Just Ford in glasses, moral clarity, and explosions that actually meant something. This is what competence porn looked like before we got addicted to slop. Clear And Present Danger

Canada says same thing about Anthropic export control ban. I dunno guys, maybe we shouldn't kneecap our best AI model and our best AI chip companies with myopic government policy moves with no logical strategic thinking whatsoever?

An amazing TORNADO formed inside of the crater at Kilauea in Hawaii during the eruption today! Video from the USGS live stream here:

The govt passed Obamacare and told us it would make healthcare affordable, yet the costs have spiraled out of control. The govt has spent in excess of $22 trillion “fighting poverty” Sounds like we need more of those who than can make trillions and less who waste trillions.

You can’t hate stereotypes AND like astrology.

As New York City celebrated a Knicks championship last night, the men and women of the NYPD were working across all five boroughs to keep people safe. That included dealing with a relatively small number of people who used celebration as an “excuse” to turn to violence. Many cops worked long, grueling tours. Many came in on their days off. And many went straight from a long night into the Puerto Rican Day Parade and FIFA watch parties this morning. To every cop who put themselves at risk to ensure others could celebrate safely: thank you for your noble service. This city is grateful.

This 1982 Miller Lite commercial with Rodney Dangerfield, Dick Butkus, John Madden, Bubba Smith, Deacon Jones & others cannot be topped
