why is it always “we cut thousands of employees to save money” and never “we cut millions from our CEOs salaries to save money”
Netflix is laying off around 1,000 employees, representing 6% of its workforce, in what is the streamer's biggest layoff to date. Most of the layoffs will affect workers in Netflix’s product, technology, legal and HR teams. “Our mission — to entertain the world — is ambitious, and delivering on it requires us to be disciplined about where we prioritize our people and resources,” co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters wrote in an email. variety.com/2026/tv/news/net…

For @marieclaire, I asked five women who say they were sexually assaulted in college what they did the morning after. Their answers were mundane, contradictory, devastating, and often nothing like what we expect trauma to look like. marieclaire.com/politics/mor…

The one guy looks like he’s 30 and the other looks 16 😬 I hope it’s just this poster because the book was very cute!

AP is so on point with this. Reject the language the cult uses and you rob it of its power. Thats why they are going bonkers over this. Humans have agency. Computer programs are run by humans who are accountable for everything the programs do.
Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects. Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it. apnews.com/article/openai-sa…

John Green on J.K. Rowling: “I think it’s important when we talk about her to talk about the fact that supporting her work now is directly supporting efforts at the erasure of trans people, and that makes me really sad. I think about all the trans friends I have who have Deathly Hallows tattoos,” Green continues, “and how heartbreaking it is for them to have someone who created something that matters so much to them really betray them.” Will he watch HBO’s upcoming 'Harry Potter' show? “No. No. No.” vanityfair.visitlink.me/sb7Y…

New Jersey is so powerful that our transit system is capable of not only making us late, but also travelers at 5 airports across three states.
This sums up Trump. They wait 5 hours before blaming AMTRAK for “accidentally” cutting a cable as the reason for flight cancellations. Then AMTRAK waits an hour before blaming NJ Transit. Zero accountability.

Kinda crazy that I had to ask my sister in PA to get one for me when I was literally in Manhattan while reading this, but she scored one of the three copies at her record store! 🙌

It’s sad bc the balance of apathy and perfectionism they aspire to doesn’t exist. You have to try then fail. You can’t be effortless. It takes effort. I love my cringey tumblr poetry. teenage me singing in the mall. You try, you cringe, you fail and you learn to succeed. Fuck em.
the internet made everybody scared to have an ugly first draft. whole generation trying to debut as a finished product.

Truly begging everyone to share links, even if you’re posting screenshots of an article. Especially then. If you want more coverage for the things you love from people who care and work hard, please PLEASE support entertainment journalists.

I don’t think most people outside of media really understand how much deteriorating search traffic is throttling digital journalism as Google shifts to AI. and how the rise of AI chatbots is keeping people in new walled gardens with fewer incentives to click through to news sites
Some news: USA Today is cutting staff and reorganizing its audience team. The changes are designed to address the depreciation of search traffic, which is “under pressure” as “platforms are increasingly keeping user experiences to themselves.” The internal memo:

and yet also asking him what it's like to kiss a man -- with that expression of genuine curiosity and wistfulness -- they are conditioned for toxicity but yearn for sincerity, which is the entire point of ADULTS
