I'd be much obliged if you gave my band's new album a few streams. We're pretty good at what we do.
This is a pretty good rhetorical technique.
College professor left completely stumped after @KaiSchwemmer started talking in Spanish after the professor said he welcomed mass migration.
Schwemmer: Would it be an issue if every city spoke a different language?
Professor: No.
Schwemmer: "Entonces sería bastante difícil si estuviéramos hablando, entendernos, porque nosotros no podemos entender lo que estamos diciendo y no podemos alcanzar tener respeto mutuo."
Brilliant.

"Art is political"?
Then rent your own stage.
Nobody paid for Tosca to hear a baritone's take on Gaza.
Calgary Opera got it right. Enough with artists who think every stage is theirs to hijack.
And that's before we even get to the opinion itself.

Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s scientific research is…odd.
Arab mothers who engage in “interethnic mating” have worse birth outcomes than those who mate with Arab men?
Also: Genetics, black race, and interracial mating?
Why research this? WTF?

A queer film festival in Switzerland has decided not to screen Tell Me Everything, a story about a young boy discovering his father is queer and the evolution of their relationship.
Why? Because it is Israeli.
I'm sure a group of Free Palestine activists will see this and insist that no, it has nothing to do with identity, but with the filmmakers' support for Israel's war with Gaza.
Except the festival demanded that Moshe Rosenthal "declare his stance towards the current Israeli government." He did. He said that he does not support the government, he does not finance the government's policies, and he does not make films that promote the policies of the Israeli government.
That wasn't enough.
When Free Palestine tells you they are fine with "good" Jews, know they are lying. They were always going to boycott a queer story showcasing Israeli Jews.
USA goes 1, 4, and 8 in the UCI World Championships. Alongside what’s been happening in Track & Field these days, I think it’s safe to say America is undergoing an endurance sport renaissance.
Definitely a brilliant edition of the World Champs with so many dramatic changes and the race exploded from far away. McNulty, a surprising winner but not very. I expected Simmons instead and he was 4th. USA was just the best team today and they nailed it.

It's always going to drive me nuts that "obstacle course racing" became a big thing in America, but we can't beg our schools to set up European-style cross-country meets with the logs and hay bales and mud and stuff.

Tip for boosting your engagements:
If you mention the word "H1-B" hundreds of Randomname Bunchofnumbers accounts with a join date of July 2026 and 7 username changes since then will show up in the comments to rant incoherently about how they dislike India.
The idea that the medical industry is just sitting on cures because the patients are women has always been so laughable to me. First, it assumes medical omnipotence; second, it assumes that men don't want women to be healthy and happy. Complete and utter poppycock.

We polled five routes for Trump to leave office before the end of his term. A plurality of Dems support four of them, including a military coup and death by natural causes. The only one underwater, an assassination, is still supported by 29%.
