LOL Stephen Colbert is making his band play licensed music during his final show so CBS – who fired him – will get sued and have to pay millions
"Anyone illegally using that music is gonna have to pay through the nose--"
[band starts playing]
"Oh no! I hope this doesn't cost CBS any money!"
this was so sweet. Stephen Colbert just ended his final episode of The Late Show while singing "Hello, Goodbye" with Paul McCartney. his family and the show's crew then joined them on stage before Paul turned off the lights to the Ed Sullivan Theater

💚 we did it. Thousands of hands and minds making a movie to touch the world like we always dreamed about as kids. Couldn’t be more proud. 💚 Thank you to everyone who has visited Oz over the last year and continues to visit this place made of love and courage and sense of adventure. Here’s to cinema. 🥂and dreams coming true. 🫧 love and wonder and imagination will always be our most powerful weapon. More to do… more to do…
I fully support the producers and in fact I think they should do this way more often, just include her songs in every segment possible
Make 👏 Kelly 👏 Clarkson👏 promote👏 her 👏 music
On our street, everyone is welcome. Together, let’s build a world where every person and family feels loved and respected for who they are. Happy #PrideMonth!
Watching this really made me reflect about so many of my own college experiences, and being comfortable coming out and accepting myself. It can be messy and dramatic, but also beautiful.
It was this moment that made me fall in love with #Overcompensating, genuinely such a beautiful moment that got me. This show is really fun and is camp and trashy, and i loved every moment of it. I need s2 ASAP
Why are some people like this?
Way to spectacularly miss the point.
These brave women were more than qualified for more specialized tasks, but no one in power would give them the assignments or the respect they deserved.
Instead, the 6888 battalion was tasked with sorting and delivering more than 17 MILLION pieces of backlogged mail in a 6 month period. Everyone who tried before them had failed.
They worked around the clock in dimly lit rat-infested warehouses and airplane hangars with blacked out windows under the constant threat of air raids. They endured attempted attacks from a German U Boat and astounding disrespect and bigotry from those who owed them gratitude.
Three of the batallion’s members were killed in the line of duty, and the military refused to even honor their sacrifice by paying for their burial.
Many of these women were highly skilled medical technicians who could have easily been assigned to more esteemed duties if they didn’t have to fight the additional war of racial and sexual prejudice.
But they took a job no one else wanted (and one that everyone prior to them had failed), and they did it with excellence, boosting the morale of the troops and bringing peace and comfort to those back home.
If you can’t respect their efforts, the least you can do is shut up. I promise their contributions to the world are more meaningful than sitting around on X throwing stones.
Jimmy Carter's advice to a young person.
My nephew Matthew, now a @Georgetown sophomore, shared this letter with me yesterday. Five years ago, he wrote to all the living presidents and asked for advice on how to participate in public service. Only Jimmy Carter responded. My nephew has searched online and has found nothing similar so believes it not to be a "form letter." It's a beautiful precis on how to live a life of service.

To Matthew:
Thank you for your letter. I admire your interest in serving our country and appreciate your desire to begin that service as soon as possible. No matter what the future holds, there are a few things that young people must do to ensure success: Study hard in order to excel in college and learn as much as possible about the things that particularly interest you; be tenacious in fulfilling commitments, whether to others or to yourself; volunteer your time and talents to community projects, learning all you can about the specific needs of the country or state in which you live; and treat everyone—family, friends and strangers—with honest and respect. If you do these things, I’m sure you will find satisfaction in whatever career you chose.
With best wishes,
Jimmy Carter.
I cannot for the life of me figure out why the United States doesn’t have high speed trains like China. It would make life so much easier for so many Americans.
