This is going to get them more goodwill than all the top 4 letterboxd interviews with random celebrities on the red carpet.
Donald Trump just launched the “Patriot Games,” an “unprecedented four-day athletic event” with “one young man and one young woman from each state and territory.”
President Obama got defensive after Larry David brushed off one of his notes while filming “Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness”:
“He gave a few notes about something and Larry went, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, we got it.’ And the president goes, ‘I spent a half an hour talking about how funny everything is. I give you one note and you get into a defensive crouch,’” director Jeff Schaffer recalls. “The president said, ‘When I was in the Oval Office, I took advice and listened to my advisors, and I was the president of the United States.’ And Larry just goes, ‘Yeah, but I’m the president of this.’”

Plans released for a $16 billion mile-long ship capable of carrying 80,000 people.
The 'Freedom Ship' would be home to about 50,000 people, with space for 10,000 tourists and 20,000 crew members.
"The Freedom Ship is envisioned as a permanently mobile city at sea designed for long-term residence rather than short-term travel," the company says.
The ship would be about 8 times the size of the current largest ship in the world, the Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas.
The plans include a 15,000-seat stadium, schools, colleges, shops, clubs, a water park, a music hall, museums, parks, and more.
The ship, which would run on nuclear, would be too large to dock and would remain in international waters.
Freedom Cruise International says it would go around the world every two to three years.
Insane.

This cannot be a new popularity contest every other week started by someone who feels confident waking up. There IS a popularity contest, it's called the general elections. And whatever you may think of him, he won that.
If #Starmer loses the party leader elections, he should call for a general election as a scorched earth strategy. Or atleast threaten to do so now, as the people elected him for 5 years. Not anyone else.
Where is the patience? I saw stories about him done for from week 4.
If Keir Starmer is the problem, then how is Wes Streeting, his right hand man since the election, the solution?
And don't forget Shabana Mahmood whose policies are so awful they're endorsed by Badenoch, Rachel Reeves who chose to keep children in poverty instead of reversing the cut to banker's bonuses, or Yvette Cooper whose proscription of a protest group was ruled unlawful by the UK's High Court
If Starmer goes, the top team should go, and Labour should have a proper reset

On Saturday I went into a Ryman's to buy blotting paper. The young assistant knew exactly where it was - "in a very odd place" - (next to the pens) and as I paid politely asked what it was for. So I told her. I feel so delightfully old and wise..
