First time this story has ever been told on a national level. Don’t miss it!
She was only 15 when she was kidnapped, bound, and left for dead…but her story didn’t end there. She survived and lived to tell the unthinkable. Watch "People Magazine Investigates: Surviving a Serial Killer" Tuesdays on ID and @hbomax. #PeopleMagazineInvestigates @people

Flannery O'Connor on the teaching of literature in school: "And if the student finds that this is not to his taste? Well, that is regrettable. Most regrettable. His taste should not be consulted; it is being formed."
Forcing kids to read things they hate just simply doesn’t work. Our reading philosophy at Alpha is simple: kids learn to love reading by reading what they love. Sure, it’s important for kids to be exposed to classic literature. But being forced to read highbrow literature as a young teen is often the very thing that makes kids hate reading in the first place. Many of them never bother picking up a novel again. If the goal is to have students fall in love with reading and become life-long readers, then we should cater the material to their interests. Whether it’s comic-books, books about insects, or a biography on the Kardashians, there has to be a better way. We built our own app called Teach Tales to solve this problem.

pretty shitty how baseline human activities like singing, dancing and making art got turned into skills instead of being seen as behaviors so now it's like 'the point of doing them is to get good at them' and not 'this is a thing humans do, the way birds sing and bees make hives.

it’s funny how sometimes you buy a book, then read it in two days, and sometimes you buy a book and it lives on your bookshelf for 12 years.

How does this make sense?
Raman is losing her own district (CD 4) and also more people are voting for mayor than for governor. Does that make sense?

Guys, please stop thinking that the people who stole 100 Million Dollars from the Fire Aid benefit, is accused money laundering 300 BILLON DOLLARS of tax payer money and has "spent" billions of dollars on 3 feet of a high speed train system could possible rig an election.

Hunters searching a remote stretch of Alaska’s Knik River uncover human remains buried in the sand. The victim is identified as 23-year-old Sherry Morrow, a missing dancer whose murder may be connected to something much larger.

America routinely taking days/weeks to count ballots now is f’n hilarious. They might as well announce results in Hamburglar costumes

Very important info in my line of work.
A herring is a fish. When a herring is preserved by salting and smoking, it turns red and smells. It's so pungent that it's a great diversion to distract hunting dogs from their trail. Now, a ‘red herring’ refers to anything that diverts attention from the issue at hand.

Like honestly "it's going to take us several weeks to tell you who won the election" is failed state shit and should be much more stigmatized.

Again, I think this is basically true for all people.
The most healing thing for a neurodivergent person isn’t sleep or a hot shower or a good meal. It’s a long stretch of time where nobody needs anything from them at all.

Not a single actor in The Pitt, including the sweet charge nurse, who is supposedly born at that hospital, has a Pittsburgh accent.

I f’ing love fresh tracks.
A Harvard-trained Army Ranger described psilocybin to me like this: "Your brain is a snowy mountain. Every thought is a sled track. After 40 years you are riding the same five grooves down the same hill." "Psilocybin is fresh snow." (1/2)

Exponentially more expensive with fewer options.
My health insurance is exponentially worse than it was in 2009

Norm- “Patton Oswalt said he thought the worst part of the Cosby thing was the hypocrisy…. I disagree.” Jerry Seinfeld - “You disagree?” Norm Macdonald - “Yeah…. I think it was the r*ping.”

Intelligent people struggle with addiction. Their minds need more. They have obsessions nobody around them shares. Philosophy. Astronomy. Dostoevsky. Jazz. Quantum physics. Things they know deeply. Things they've gone so deep into that anything else feel like small talk. And small talk feels like suffocation. So... they drink. Work until 2 am. Doomscroll until they're numb. Because there is a gap. A gap between who you are and the conversations available to you. And it's one of the loneliest places a person can live.

> la IA contaba mal el inventario en Starbucks > Microsoft bloqueó claude code para sus propios ingenieros > Uber no encuentra el ROI después de gastar miles de millones en IA 3 derrotas de la IA esta semana en el sector laboral. WE ARE SO BACK
JUST IN: Uber’s COO says heavy AI spending is getting harder to justify, as higher token usage fails to show a clear payoff in consumer features.
