Lupita Nyong'o is not the first Black woman to portray Helen of Troy. The first was Eartha Kitt, personally chosen by Orson Welles, in a play performed in Paris in 1950.

@choeshow @grok why does this kind of pitting, bleeding and scabbing happen with the legs of drug addicts?

NEW: A worker in downtown Seattle snapped this photo of a homeless drug addict passed out on 6th Ave & Union St. Look at the open sores all over his legs. Could turn into an amputation. Is this city really going to be ready for the FIFA World Cup in less than three weeks?

I used to mentor new grads through an alumni program tied to my alma mater. As a women in Tech, I always told my mentees to be adaptable because tools in tech change quickly & to stay curious. I stopped encouraging women to enter tech after being replaced by H1Bs 2x after being forced to train them to collect severance pay. I eventually quit mentoring because I didn’t see the point of encouraging young minds in a field I was being defeated by & it did not feel right to lie to them about a bright future in Tech. Now on my 3x being replaced by an H1B & there are legitimately no jobs hiring an experienced American woman in Tech. It’s horrific. I’m now just trying to figure out how I will make money & pay bills the next 15-20yrs of my life. This is not the “American dream” we were all promised! Politicians sold us down the river!

American: Time to go home. Imported Worker: No, you need us here, because your kids aren't getting STEM degrees! American: Hey kid, why aren't you interested in getting a STEM related degree? American Kid: Because I don't want to go into 20+ years worth of debt just so I can compete with 1.5 BILLION Indians for a job. American: Time to go home.

Spending hundreds of millions of dollars for just three round trips per day is a complete waste and Coloradans should save money by killing this boondoggle." #copolitics

lol 1) Sow 2) Your partisan affiliation is a public record. Literally anyone in the world can access the party affiliation of every single voter in Arizona. 3) This is for primary elections. Are we saying those are rigged too? (You were 2/2 in primaries) 4) The only person who sees this is the mailman. The same person who probably already delivers much more revealing mail and who handles thousands of pieces of mail every day (and probably doesn't stop to think too much about every voter) 5) This is the outbound envelope from the election office to the voter. So what's the theory here? That gremlins are looking at the back of the envelope then removing thousands of Republican envelopes... to affect the primary election? And somehow none of those affected voters say, "I didn't get a ballot?"
Kari Lake@KariLake

Mail-in ballots make it easy to commit fraud and sew malfeasance.

@mrddmia @Article3Project Does everyone realize that people like Richard Cash never even meet people like us? Their constituents? They have no idea. That’s the only way they can be like this - zero exposure to anyone other than themselves. Total echo chamber bubble.

I never told you not to say the Pledge. I said I don't say the Pledge because I know who wrote it and why he really wrote it. I also said that even though I don't say the Pledge, I put my hand over my heart when others around me do. It's nothing to do with being contrarian; it has everything to do with conviction of principles. You perhaps made your way into a building or your POV a few times to avoid standing outside in uniform at attention and saluting because Retreat was about to hit. But sure, amplify your inflated patriotism because you can't allow yourself to be wrong. Or, grow the f@¿% up and admit you knew zero about the history of the Pledge and learning of it disturbs your particular worldview. The Oath of Allegiance is far superior, meaningful, and more patriotic than the ritualistic, socialist-crafted Pledge.

BREAKING NEWS: Washington @Nationals Director of Community Relations Admits on Hidden Camera to Active Religious Discrimination Against Starting Pitcher Trevor Williams, Surveillance of Nationals Fans’ Google History, and Segregated LGBTQ+ Corporate Meetings to an O’Keefe Undercover Journalist “One of our pitchers, Trevor Williams. He’s super Christian-Catholic, all these tattoos that mean a lot.” “The Dodgers had a group… who were drag queens who sometimes dressed up as nuns. He [Trevor Williams] went on social media like… ‘This is my religion. You all are mocking it.’” “Because of that, we [Washington Nationals] don’t use him [Trevor Williams] on social [media].” “Like, when they're like, is a hot dog a sandwich? And like, the players come up, you know what I mean? Like, we [Nationals] don't ask him [Trevor Williams].” “If you ever come to a Nats game, there is someone on our team who is responsible for figuring out everything about you and assigning you into a bucket of people. If you’re accepting cookies, we’re getting a plethora of your Google history.” @heyhuds @MeLlamoTrevor @NationalsComms @MLB @MLB_PR

There was a king of Spain whose jaw stuck out so far his teeth couldn't meet. His tongue was so big he could barely talk. He had seizures. He looked like an old man at 30 and died childless at 39. His entire family had been marrying their cousins for nearly 200 years. His name was Charles II, the last of the Habsburgs. And he is the textbook case scientists still point to when explaining why countries ban cousin marriages. The Habsburgs ran most of Europe in that period, and they refused to marry outside the family. Uncles married nieces. First cousins married each other. Royals kept marrying back into the same bloodline, generation after generation, to keep the crown in the family. Spanish scientists eventually pieced together the family tree to see what this did to their DNA. They tracked 3,000 people across 16 generations. They calculated something called an inbreeding score. It measures how much of your DNA ends up in two identical copies because both your parents inherited it from the same ancestor. A normal person scores almost zero. Philip I, the dynasty's founder, scored 0.025. Charles II, born about five generations later, scored 0.254. That is the same score a child would get if their parents were brother and sister. Every person quietly carries a few broken genes. They usually don't cause problems, because the matching copy from your other parent works fine. But when both your parents come from the same closed family tree, you start inheriting the same broken copies from both sides. Nothing cancels them out. They start showing up. About a quarter of Charles's DNA was identical pairs of these broken genes, which is why his body fell apart. He couldn't have children. When he died in 1700 with no heir, every kingdom in Europe started fighting over who would inherit Spain. The war that followed killed an estimated 700,000 people. A UK study followed 11,000 babies and found the same pattern. Children born to first cousins were twice as likely to have a birth defect, 6% versus 3%. Norway banned cousin marriage in 2024. Sweden's ban takes effect July 1, 2026. The Habsburgs ran this experiment over three centuries ago, and the science has been clear ever since.
Visegrád 24@visegrad24

Sweden has just BANNED cousin marriage and close relative marriage! 🇸🇪

Richard Cash, one of the most conservative Republicans in the South Carolina statehouse, may have just marked the death knell for redistricting. "Neither my conscience nor the common sense will allow me to stop an election that is already underway," he says.

If countries like Thailand start restricting Indian tourists, where exactly are Indians supposed to go? Indians spend billions globally on tourism, shopping, hotels, food, and local economies. Treating Indian travelers like second-class visitors while happily taking their money is a dangerous trend.

You can't pay tax on "wealth" you don't currently have because you haven't realized the gains yet. These are the kinds of economic illiterates populating mainstream press outlets.
The New York Times@nytimes

In @nytopinion The four richest Californians paid 0.07% of their wealth in income tax from 2019 to 2025. A trailblazing tax on billionaire wealth could change that, write two economists who advised on the measure. nyti.ms/4fakpQb
