HBO asked 32,000 kids to record a 30-second video of themselves reading a poem (not from Harry Potter, any poem) and a one-minute clip about themselves and someone close to them. Parents uploaded both to a website. That's all it took to get in the door. The call went out in September 2024 for kids aged 9 to 11 in the UK or Ireland. No agent needed. When the original films were being cast in 2000, between 300 and 1,000 kids tried out for the role of Harry. This time, 32,000 tapes came in for three roles. Lucy Bevan, the casting director behind Barbie and The Batman, led the search. Her team watched 500 to 1,000 tapes a day, then ran months of workshops, chemistry reads, and meetings with directors before narrowing it down. Dominic McLaughlin got Harry. He's from Scotland, and his only acting job before this was a small comedy called Grow. His co-star in that show was Nick Frost, who now plays Hagrid in the same Harry Potter series. Arabella Stanton got Hermione, her one credit being Matilda in a London musical. Alastair Stout got Ron, and he'd never acted in anything at all. Daniel Radcliffe wrote McLaughlin a personal letter after the casting went public. McLaughlin's dad handed it to him on a train. He read the whole thing, got to the bottom, saw "Daniel R." and told the BBC he was "going mad" but had to keep it together because he was surrounded by strangers. The teaser dropped on March 25 and pulled 277 million views in 48 hours, more than doubling every previous HBO trailer record. The show premieres Christmas 2026, with seven seasons planned (one per book), all shooting at the same Leavesden Studios where the originals were made. They've built a school on set for up to 600 child actors.

@TheHerd @colincowherd This is incredibly well said. 100% spot on. Captures hockey culture perfectly. At the end of the day in overtime it comes down to one shot. The US got one more save than Canada. Congratulations to them.

As the years pass, Connor Hellebuyck is the name that needs to be kept alive Jack Hughes has billion dollar photo, while Conor McDavid walked away the MVP The truth is, the gold medal game would've been a blowout if Hellebuyck didn't shed his demons Nobody needed this more than him Despite being the back to back Vezina winner, his reputation for shrinking in big games loomed large over the final He was yanked 3 times last playoffs vs St. Louis and has allowed at least 4 goals in 10 of his last 14 playoff games Everything was put to rest in Milan He finished with the best save percentage in the tournament and a perfect 5-0 record The real MVP was the man between the pipes who shed his reputation and lifted America to our 1st gold in 46 years

@xevekiah Happened to someone I know as well. Almost exactly like this. And was too stressed with the baby coming and worrying about that so she didn’t have the time or energy to find a lawyer and pursue legal action

my coworker was pregnant. still showed up every day nauseous, exhausted, trying to prove she was “committed.” never missed a deadline. never complained. even picked up extra work so no one could say she was slacking. then one afternoon HR scheduled a “role evaluation.” twenty minutes later she walked out pale, holding a folder with her termination papers. they said the company was “moving in a different direction” and needed someone “with more flexibility.” no warnings. no performance issues. just that. what they didn’t say is that a week earlier she’d asked about maternity leave policies and whether her position would be secure while she was gone. suddenly her role was “redundant.” two months later they hired someone new for her exact job. she lost her income right before giving birth. lost her insurance. lost her sense of safety. they kept their “family-oriented workplace” slogan on the website. funny how “different direction” always seems to point straight at the door.

Caleb Downs is breaking my brain. He’s *so* good a football player that I can’t figure out how to value him on a draft board. I know he’s a safety. I know that contract values for draft position, etc matter. He’s the exception. I’ve watched every snap he played for Ohio State countless times and I just don’t know how a dude is capable of doing the things he does.

So now the internet’s favorite hoodie billionaire, Mark Zuckerberg, allegedly packs up the kombucha and VR goggles and dips out of California for Florida to dodge some shiny new “wealth tax,” and everyone acts shocked like gravity just got invented, listen, billionaires don’t play feelings, they play spreadsheets, if a state says hey we’re gonna tax your unrealized gains like they’re already cash in your pocket, a guy who runs Meta Platforms is gonna look at that and say cool story, I’ll just relocate to a state with no income tax and better weather, because capital moves faster than your outrage, California builds the tech empire then wonders why the empire starts shopping for cheaper rent, and Florida’s sitting there like come on down, sunshine, beaches, no state income tax, and a regulatory vibe that says build, don’t beg, this isn’t drama, it’s incentives 101, if you punish scale, scale leaves, if you reward growth, growth shows up, and whether you love Zuck or think he’s a human CAPTCHA, the lesson is simple, money doesn’t argue ideology, it migrates.

WAR should NOT influence MVP voting. Some will claim I am saying this because Aaron Judge has a higher WAR than Cal Raleigh this season, and I am somehow biased against Judge. I am not, that is not the case, and Raleigh has not really played at an MVP-level since late-June. My stance is not about the current MVP race or any specific player—it is about WAR itself. WAR, by design, measures performance in a theoretical vacuum, not the real-world context of games—not what happened, but what should have happened under normalized conditions. It is a valuable tool for evaluating cumulative value across seasons, careers, and eras and, though retrospective in nature, even for projections and forecasting value added potential. Its original intent—a single, all-encompassing stat—has been misapplied without merit. WAR is now misused as the definitive measure of a player’s on-field value, precisely where it falls short: the single-season contributions that result in awards like the MVP. Ths misuse and over-application echoes the 1980s, when BBWAA became fixated on saves—closers were walking away with Cy Young Awards and even MVPs, propped up by a novel position and a statistic in its infancy. Back then, BBWAA succumbed to the Dunning-Kruger effect, overestimating their grasp of a newer metric to pose as experts privy to insights beyond the public’s reach. Today, in our digital age and everything within reach, these self-proclaimed experts amplify their arrogance across various social media platforms, infecting discourse with a misguided perception, spinning a narrative founded in ignorance, and further entrenching WAR as the ultimate measure of value, sidelining the back of the baseball card and the intangibles that better define an MVP. I will dive into this further in an upcoming piece, if interested, bookmark this, and I will be sure to share.
