here is Mamdani's entire speech at the Knicks parade, which is easily the best speech I've ever heard at an event of this sort

This MRI study on young kids just exposed something terrifying:

They scanned the brains of 60 children aged 3–5 — including 5-year-old Rose — and found interactive screen time is causing measurable loss of white matter in their developing brains. Even just 2 hours a day is linked to impaired neural connectivity, language, and literacy development.

Professor Mike Nagel (neuroscientist and father) said his first reaction was simply: “Wow… I was not anticipating seeing anything like that.”

We’re physically changing children’s brains before they even start school — and the damage is visible on scans.

This one actually unsettled me. I’ve always suspected too much screen time was bad, but seeing real white matter loss in toddlers hits different.

Parents of little ones — has this kind of research changed how much screen time you allow?

Elizabeth Olsen says she will only star in studio movies that have guaranteed theatrical releases

“If a movie is made independently and only sells to a streamer, then fine. But I don’t want to make something where [streaming is] the end-all. I think it’s important for people to gather as a community, to see other humans, be together in a space”

I think it’s well established by now that going to the cinema alone is not lonely, but in fact a beautiful, profound, borderline religious experience that everyone should enjoy at some point in their life
