55 years ago today one of the greatest and biggest pop albums was released: “Tapestry” by the legendary Carole King. The album won several Grammys and was one of the biggest selling and longest charting in history. She has inspired decades of singer songwriters.

Just watched the Super Bowl halftime show, and I’ve never been more proud to be Puerto Rican!

In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government.

But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.

Even if crypto weren't inherently volatile, it must be resisted because, behind its use as a tool of speculation, fraud, money laundering and influence peddling, there is an ideological project - a strain of extreme libertarian that seeks a return to feudalism.

As U.S. Olympians walked into the stadium during the Parade of Nations, cheers rang out across the crowd of spectators, until JD Vance was shown on the stadium's Jumbotron. At the sight of Vance the crowd booed loudly.

The Israeli delegation was also booed.

Seeing an international crowd cheer loudly for our athletes while booing JD Vance is so heartening.

Maybe the rest of the world knows how hard people are fighting back.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.

It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

Russia's gas pipelines just got reversed.

US LNG now flows north through Greece into Ukraine—same pipes that once carried Russian gas south. Three new corridors, none existed two years ago. Moscow destroyed the gas fields and got a pipeline reversal instead.

Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?

No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!
