Zendaya once gave her entire film crew at least 1% equity in her film 'Malcolm and Marie' so they would earn a bonus after the film sold. The movie was sold to Netflix for an estimated $30M. Each crew member made at least $300k+

The best way to enjoy ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ is to uncross your damn arms and try to have some fun. My oldest kiddo had *zero* interest in Star Wars beforehand and absolutely loved it. A new generation of Star Wars fans? This is the way.

Trump is now reportedly responsible for roughly 27.7% of the entire U.S. national debt accumulated under all presidents combined. That is an astonishing figure historically. The national debt just crossed $39 trillion. President Trump has added roughly $12–13 trillion to the debt across his two terms in office. That’s approximately 30% of ALL U.S. national debt accumulated since 1789. In 2016, Trump said he would pay down the national debt “over a period of eight years.” Instead: - First term: +$7.8 trillion - Second term: roughly +$4–5 trillion already And yes, COVID affected first-term spending. It does not explain adding another trillion dollars every five months without a pandemic. A political movement built on: “fiscal conservatism” “small government” “balanced budgets” has now overseen the largest debt expansion tied to any single presidency in American history.

They didn't kill the cancer. They told it to go home. A team of Korean scientists at KAIST just pulled off something that sounds like science fiction. Instead of nuking colon cancer cells with chemo or radiation, they convinced them to turn back into normal, healthy colon cells. No killing. No collateral damage. Just a quiet U-turn at the cellular level. Here's how it works. Led by Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho at the Department of Bio and Brain Engineering, the team built a "digital twin" of the gene network that controls how a normal cell becomes cancerous. They ran simulations. They hunted for the exact moment a healthy cell flips into a malignant one. Then they found the switches. Three master regulator genes — MYB, HDAC2, and FOXA2 — were the keys to the whole transformation. Flip those switches back, and the cancer cell stops behaving like a cancer cell. It starts looking and acting like a normal enterocyte, the kind of cell that lines a healthy intestine. No gene editing. No permanent rewiring. Just the body's own natural signals, used in reverse. The team confirmed it in molecular experiments, cellular experiments, and animal studies. The malignant cells stopped multiplying out of control and went back to doing their actual job. The research has already been handed off to a company called BioRevert Inc. to develop into real-world treatments. This isn't a cure tomorrow. But it rewrites the entire playbook for how we think about cancer. You don't always have to destroy the enemy. Sometimes you just have to remind it who it used to be.

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI. The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace. They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up: Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it. Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived. Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead. The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much. Uber's story is even worse... Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April. Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems. Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session. The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money. Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote: "For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees." This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans. Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative. Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing: AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs. The stock market rewarded every company that said it. Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up. But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill. Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools. Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible. Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone. And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control. The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP. This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in. $725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work. What do you think?

My kid's school asked me to donate supplies. Paper. Pencils. Hand sanitizer. Tissues. I pay property taxes. My state has a $4 billion surplus. The federal education budget is $238 billion. And the teacher is buying pencils out of her own paycheck. And I'm sending in Ziploc bags. We fund stadiums for billionaires with public money. We fund schools with bake sales. And then blame teachers when test scores drop.

Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan. Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

Since this is making a comeback: THIS IS LITERALLY A *FAMINE* FOOD. A dish made primarily for survival. A minority of malnourished Haitians living in slums who lacked food access ate this, esp post-2010 Earthquake. It isn’t a national dish.

Haitians eat dirt cookies called bonbon tè. Women buy sacks of dirt, often on credit, and mix them with a bit of fat and salt.
