They should change the name to "Strait of Schrödinger". It's both open and closed at the same time.

In his second administration, President Trump’s family, including his son-in-law Jared Kushner and sons Eric and Don Jr., are expanding their business ventures, earning hundreds of millions of dollars and prompting fresh concerns about influence peddling and conflicts of interest. @ElizLanders reports.

Think we need to be honest about what we are seeing here. The Iranian government is still the same theocratic dictatorship and the Iranian people are in desperate straits after the US promised them liberation. The Iranians still control the Strait of Hormuz, still maintain their right to collect tolls, still have their nuclear program, and have Trump promising to return them $20 billion in frozen assets. The markets also have concluded that this is the end, Trump has thrown in the towel. A massive strategic failure by the USA.

Yay. The Strait that was open before we began bombing Iran open, is open again. Everybody pretend this is a huge victory for Trump so he'll end this catastrophe.

said this a million times but Apple are idiots for not doing a 25th anniversary iPod this year clickwheel, multiple colors, Apple Music, Bluetooth and AirPods support, a good DAC and storage up to 2 TB just to appease the audiophiles — boom, you have the product of Christmas 26

Gen Z and parents favor old-school tech like iPods and digital cameras for a simpler, less plugged-in life: 'People are just sick of it' trib.al/5jaxgnn

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) sets the bar really low for behavioral expectations. It rewards students for behavior that they should be doing simply because it is the general expectation of the school and because they live in a civilized society. It also presents those who don’t care about positive feedback with the option to behave in uncivilized ways and forgo any praise or reward if they feel like it. Schools that set clear expectations when it comes to behavior, teach and practice the expected behaviors, and issue consistent negative consequences for not meeting the expectations don’t need PBIS. It’s appropriate to occasionally thank students for being prepared for class or respectfully listening and responding to classmates, but schools shouldn’t be fawning over students for normal behavior as if it’s the exception rather than the rule. PBIS benefits and rewards the few students who see rules and expectations as optional. Meanwhile, it sacrifices the safe, calm, orderly learning environments that the majority of students who follow and appreciate the rules deserve. PBIS is another education acronym that needs to be ditched and schools need to return to high behavior expectations and consistent consequences.

Being in your early 40s is weird, man. People around your age are in every stage of life. You have people who are grandparents. You have people who have newborns. You have people dating 25-year-olds. You have people celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary. Some of them look 60, and some of them look 30. All the bases are covered when you are in your early 40s.

So if CPAC is dead and TPUSA is dead and MAGA is dead, what exactly is left of the Republican Party except disillusioned boomers and paid influencers?

I will never get tired of pointing out that Democrats have attempted many times in both congress and the Supreme Court to enact a national ban on partisan gerrymandering, literally all Republicans need to do on this is say "yes."
Phil Labonte 🇺🇸@philthatremains

i think if Democrats win the midterms it’s very likely they win the executive office two years later. then there will be efforts to do nationwide what was done in Virginia and California.

College enrollment is falling in America. It's not just the fact that we have fewer young people. In 2016, 70% of American high school grads went to college; by 2022, it was only 62%. The higher education sector is in big trouble. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/04/…

Trump is having a mental health episode right now. He’s been posting on social media all night. He posted at: 9:49pm (Ai Jesus photo) 9:50pm (Trump tower on moon) 10:10pm (dumb meme) 10:32pm (news clip) 10:53pm (news clip) 12:43am (announcing Hormuz blockade) 2:35am (article about Biden) 2:36am (article on naval blockade) 2:37am (article on Rep. Swalwell) 2:37am (posted the same article about Biden again) 2:38am (article on his ballroom) 4:10am (article on Iran) He’s not sleeping, he’s pretending to be Jesus, and he’s posting all night. He’s not well.
