Tortillas are perfect.

Journalist Liz Oliva Fernández reports from inside Cuba's oil crisis. From a woman walking nine kilometers to work because there's no transport to people living next to piles of uncollected trash – this is what life is like in Havana.

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting.

We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

[Kodak @Kodak]

Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey was shot on more than 2 million feet of KODAK 65mm Motion Picture Film made in Rochester, NY. Kodak also manufactured the print film for the 35mm, 70mm 5-perf, and IMAX 70mm releases. We're thrilled to celebrate the film's theatrical release today.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

ICE lied about how Renee Good was shot.

They lied about how Alex Pretti was shot.

And now they’re lying about how Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot.

Don’t believe their story for a second.

[Meech @MediumSizeMeech]

Robby Hoffman is so funny because she operates in that perfect sphere of earnest and satirical while talking about real world problems. And she’s right!!!

Eddie Glaude: “Stephen Miller is a racist. He’s a white nationalist. White nationalists have seized the federal government. Great Replacement Theory motivates this immigration policy. We need to call them for what they are. This is a white nationalist agenda and Stephen Miller and all of these folk are just simply rabid racists”

[Trevor Noah @Trevornoah]

Funny how some teams get asked about football… and others get asked to explain the world.

Shoutout to the Iran team for carrying that weight.

Fool you once, shame on him. Fool you twice, shame on you. Fool you 39 times, you're as crazy as he is.

Qween Jean just became the first openly trans person to ever win a Tony Award

"We are here for the legacy of queer people. Trans people, we have to take up space. We have to shift the paradigm."

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.

A young valedictorian at Clayton High School in North Carolina was kicked off stage and threatened with losing her diploma, all for speaking up for oppressed people around the world.

They couldn’t even let her finish. This is insane!

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads.

Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon.

Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

Vic Mensa on Kristi Noem: “She makes me fucking sick. When I saw the image of her on the rooftop in Chicago, a literal overseer staring down at the people she was brutalizing. I’m going through the airports and I’m forced to see her fucking botox face everywhere. That shit was sickening to me.”

[Sesame Street @sesamestreet]

A simple message with big meaning: "I am somebody." We are grateful to Rev. Jesse Jackson for helping teach generations of children to believe in themselves and in one another. Thank you for being part of our neighborhood. 💛💚
