I took a trip to one of the last-ever Beach Boys shows, a band that now consists of only one original member -- the eternally controversial Mike Love. I wanted to witness the end of an American institution. Unsurprisingly, it's ending badly.

I interviewed a wide group of people in the UFO/UAP community — believers, experiencers, a congressman, whistleblower advocates, an artist who says her work was stolen by a hoaxer. I found a community anxious, insulted and eager for more answers.

This and Alex Kidd were my first two games for the Sega Master System. The difficulty level of both was absolutely brutal, but I thoroughly enjoyed playing the same 5 to 10 minute stretch over and over over and over.

CEO of Anthropic Dario Amodei awkwardly smiles through his answer to a question about why Claude AI directly contributed to the US Military bombing of the elementary school in Minab.

I've seen at least one legitimate media member saying they saw the tweet before it was deleted. This is bonkers.

I’m a now deleted post by Daniel Cormier, Eric Trump DM’d him and asked him “are any of the fights tomorrow rigged?” 👀

In 1994, a new music channel seemingly came out of nowhere. It played slightly older artists that hit it big on MTV when they were younger but were aging out of the music television’s 12 to 24 age demographic.

That may have been the best half I've ever seen the #USMNT play. Bravo!

The grift here is astounding. The "Trump Kennedy Center" people tried to outright STEAL more than half of a $300,000 bequest to the Washington National Opera made in a donor's will — even though the funds were intended to go solely to WNO. https://t.co/RKg6QTSJVo

Thirty years ago today, Tracy Bonham scored a #1 Billboard Modern Rock hit with “Mother Mother.” No solo female artist would top the chart again until Lorde did with “Royals” 17 years later.

James Dolan invited his friend Donald Trump to watch Game 3. In order to do that, they have to ban the organic, historically joyous parties happening outside MSG for fans who can't afford to be inside. Modern sports in a nutshell

I stayed at the Hotel Chelsea with Hideo Kojima and Nicolas Winding Refn. The historic site has housed Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg. Sid VIcious. I write about how I was haunted by the place's past and my own.
