a lot of artists avoid singing older songs because they can’t hit the same notes anymore. meanwhile Demi Lovato just keeps improving vocally and pushing her range further every year. she’s genuinely in her prime right now
Ex-Blockbuster employee here. And I mean it with 100% sincerity that the world would be a better place if we shut down all streaming services, re-opened Blockbusters and video stores worldwide, and shoved people back out into the world to find and enjoy their entertainment.
dear apple, the iPod needs to come back. not for nostalgia. for the parents who want their kids to love music and audiobooks without a browser, social media, and the whole internet attached to it
🚨 WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY PUSHING THROUGH WHILE EVERYONE WATCHES THE WAR?
This woman just dropped a theory that’s sending people down a rabbit hole.
She claims that while the world is glued to the war, something enormous is quietly moving in the background:
The largest media merger in American history.
And when it closes… one family will control:
CNN.
CBS.
HBO.
Warner Bros.
Paramount.
According to her breakdown, the entire system behind it could run on Oracle infrastructure.
The same Oracle that just landed federal contracts tied to Medicare and Medicaid data for 150+ million Americans… and AI operations for the U.S. Air Force.
Then she connects the dots in the video:
Government contracts send billions into Oracle.
That revenue supports Oracle’s stock.
That stock is reportedly being used as collateral tied to the merger.
And Oracle ends up as the infrastructure underneath the new media empire.
Infrastructure.
Collateral.
Beneficiary.
Every layer of the same machine.
Then she points out the timing.
The war timeline that just got mentioned by Trump
About four weeks.
The shareholder vote on this merger?
March 20.
Coincidence?
Her argument:
While everyone is staring at missiles and war coverage... something massive could be sliding through the system behind the curtain.
Is the war the only story right now… or is something huge being pushed through while nobody’s looking?
We’re about to go to war with Iran to distract us from the fact that Donald Trump is accused of raping children.
Let me repeat that: Trump is about to send US troops to their deaths to distract the public from him being an alleged child rapist.
It’s important that you understand what happened last night.
Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.
In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.
CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”
In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.
But censorship always backfires.
Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.
Fake criminal records being made by MAGA because Renee Good had a spotless record so they can’t claim she was a criminal and deserved to die. So instead of admitting that Jonathan Ross is a murderer, they’re relying on their fellow MAGAts to be illiterate and not be able to do basic math.
Epic y'all know I go to bat for you on a lot of stuff but this doesn't make sense. Winterfest is a tradition where you give back to the community with an overwhelming amount of easy to obtain cosmetics. No challenges, no special modes to play, just log in and claim gifts.
There is no good reason why you should not let the gifts stack. I'm all for exclusives and hard to get items, but not in this way, for this tradition. This is literally the busiest time of year for most people and you made it unnecessarily difficult for players to be able to obtain all the items.
In many ways I feel like this was in bad taste for the community and the culture of the game. The cosmetics are free, and you won't lose insane profits by letting people have these cosmetics. You can still sell them in the item shop at a later date, but Winterfest items have always been designed for the most amount of people to obtain them the easiest way possible.
If you're trying to get your daily average player numbers up, this definitely feels like a cheap way of doing it. People aren't having fun when they log in every day just to claim a cosmetic they might miss out on.
Bringing back winter themed LTM's for certain days would have been better. That's giving more value to the player base, giving us a fun reason to jump on, while also not destroying the integrity of Winterfest. Please Epic, reverse this change.
This is actually true. This article from the Atlantic by the former President of Harvard said 2/3rds of her undergrad history class couldn’t read cursive which hindered their ability to read historical manuscripts.
She even says students chose research subjects that only required published sources and abandoned ones that required reading handwritten documents.

YOU'RE A BLACK WOMEN WHO IMMIGRATED FROM TRINIDAD TO THE UNITED STATES ILLEGALLY, HAVE BUILT YOUR CAREER OFF OF THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY AND POC, AND CAME FROM NOTHING. YOU, IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM CAN RELATE TO TWO WHITE MEN WHO HAVE NEVER EVER FACED STRUGGLE IN THEIR ENTIRE LIFE.
Nothing says “booming economy” like… canceling the GDP report. If it were good, they wouldn't hide it.
FUN FACT: This is the first time in HISTORY that both the Jobs Report and GDP Report have been canceled at the same time.
This trump economy is a BUST.
