When your best friend texts saying for Christmas this year we are doing the stupidest shit you can find that will make us laugh. Truly nothing feels more joyful than forcing your bff to accept things they don’t want.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Great reporting and a knockout final line:
“Not long after, as the sun was going down, an SUV with tinted windows and an out-of-state license plate was seen barreling down a nearby street. It was followed closely by three cars, with drivers laying on their horns and whistling.”

At MPR now: Across the Twin Cities, ICE agents and activists are playing a high stakes cat-and-mouse game. The goal is to make ICE agents' jobs as difficult as possible, and protect their immigrant neighbors.

I had to hunt down a freaking Frankenstein theater showing because it was the most random theaters each week that had it. None of them were close to me. Can’t imagine how bad Netflix would’ve bungled the OBAA or Sinners release this year. This sucks
Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.
Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.
This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.
