šØ In a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court strikes down Louisiana's new congressional map that added a second majority-black district, holding that it constitutes a racial gerrymander.
The Court narrows its previous interpretation of the Voting Rights Act.

Dan was an old-school newspaper man ā perpetually outraged, skeptical of power, giddy for scoops, slyly hilarious, bad at emotion. But I loved him so much. He charged 10% of your story and made it 90% better. And he changed my life, by believing in me.ā¤ļøāš©¹washingtonpost.com/obituarieā¦

Why are TV pilots making a comeback in the streaming era?
The idea of shooting a test episode before committing to a full season is back in fashion during these belt-tightening times. Falling episodic budgets and lower overall production have pushed executives to rethink how they approach pickups.
āI think that what we all learned with this adjustment to a slightly different volume is being a little bit more steady and focused on these bets that weāre making to really set ourselves up for long-running success,ā says Simran Sethi, president of scripted programming at Hulu Originals.

Foraying into culture for a sec, itās been a long time and this one is special, a dive into why #corrie couple #swarla have gained intl cult traction, the reasons prescient for media and queer stories on tv š§¶
Really fab piece by @IMarathe for @MetroUK
How #Swarla became a global phenomenon
(no wedding spoilers inside)
#Corrie
metro.co.uk/2026/04/23/coronā¦
But at heart, the #swarla fandom is a story of queerness, of how powerful the mundane can be for viewers who have too often watched themselves as othered, whether via trauma or loss, how stripping that burden can create intense, unlikely devotion in a strained tv market
Thanks a million to @liiarla and @lgbtconnors for your views and all our chats on soap; to Elke Weissmann and Christine Geraghty, who have studied women in soaps and brought their insight into academia for their time; and for lots of media and queer theory that informed the piece
