Fascist cosplay enthusiast Gregory Bovino rolled into Chicago with a federal badge, a tear gas stash, and apparently zero concern for reality. A judge just handed him a 233‑page roast calling him evasive, violent, and wildly dishonest, nearly incapable of telling the...

Mar-a-lago face is the face that Donald Trump likes, and getting the surgery is popular with MAGA women wanting to signal submission to him and conformity to the movement. Surgeons are 'wrestling' with these requests, a polite way of saying they don't want to turn people...

This statement by Karoline 'The Mouth of Moron' Leavitt once again demonstrates that she is clearly a horrible human being. Misogyny and boorishness probably do play a large part in Trump's re-election, but wow. Leavitt is the White House's chief interface with the press,...

Leonard Leslie Brooke became one of England's most celebrated children's book illustrators despite a devastating setback: typhoid fever contracted while traveling in Italy left him permanently deaf as a young man. Born in Birkenhead in 1862, Brooke studied at the Royal...

A Canadian librarian spent five years fighting a lawsuit and burned through his life savings ten times over for doing something millions do every day: clicking the 'share' button on YouTube videos. Ian Linkletter's nightmare began in 2020 when he tweeted links to seven...

The Coast Guard scrambled to reverse a policy change that would have reclassified swastikas and nooses as merely 'potentially divisive' rather than hate symbols — but only after The Washington Post exposed it. According to Time, the Post reported Thursday that updated...

Every time you book a flight, hotel, or rental car, a detailed digital dossier is created about you — and it never gets deleted. These Passenger Name Records (PNR) contain far more than your travel dates: they reveal who you're traveling with, what you eat, your medical...

A new survey of 750 senior cyber security professionals across the US, UK and Australia, carried out by Opinion Matters for ThreatQuotient, finds 97 percent now regard automation, increasingly powered by AI technologies, as essential to business operations. However, despite...

The network firewall was designed for a world that doesn’t exist anymore. When corporate assets sat behind a data center perimeter, inspecting packets between ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ made sense. But today, with workloads spread across multiple clouds, SaaS...

If you need a pick-me-up today, spend a few minutes on your next break watching one of the cutest videos I've seen in ages. We all know baby animals are pure magic, and nothing delivers adorableness quite like a puppy. Add sleepiness and curiosity to the mix, and...

I'm not sure if this is a match made in heaven, hell, or somewhere else entirely. Few properties are less kid-friendly than Tarantino's blood-soaked opus Kill Bill, but Uma Thurman in all her yellow-jumpsuited glory will be coming to Fortnite soon. — Read the rest The...

Gorillaz' House of Kong exhibition was an awe-inspiring physical step into the mad cartoon world Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett have built over the past 20-odd years. It was also the vehicle for their upcoming album being leaked in its entirety, but that's neither here nor...

Wisconsin, Michigan, and several other usual suspects — likely fronting for the federal government — want to strip away your right to freedom of expression and anonymous online movement. The Electronic Frontier Foundation is all over it: Wisconsin lawmakers are...

I didn't have this on my bingo card. With the long development, episodic release, and substantial post-launch trail of Hitman: World of Assassination tidily wrapped up, IO Interactive is clearly just having fun with it now. While most of the developer team is doubtless...
