Het Israëlische leger heeft een hulpverlener vrijgelaten die als enige de beschieting van een ambulancekonvooi eind maart in Gaza had overleefd. De Palestijnse Rode Halve Maan (PRCS) heeft een video gepubliceerd waarop te zien is dat Asaad Al-Nsasrah zijn collega's omhelst.

Breaking news as of a few minutes ago:

To the hundredth decimal place, the 266th and final poll finally submitted its results for the singular riding that joyfully deprived me of sleep last night, expanding Fanjoy's lead by:

50.83% - 45.83% = 5.00%

It feels fatefully round a number, if you'll permit me to say.

Not bad, one might add, for (1) taking on an incumbent, (2) the incumbent - in this case - being the leader of an opposition party.

It's worthwhile noting concerning PP's lack of legislative achievements in 20 years, that he was kicked in the butt by someone who:

(1) has a carbon neutral home (He So woKe), (2) drove his campaign style with a positive message despite these fascists times we're living in - where vitriolic wailing can bring morons to the national stage.

De Liberale Partij heeft net geen absolute meerderheid gehaald bij de Canadese verkiezingen. De partij van leider Mark Carney blijft steken op 169 zetels, terwijl er 172 nodig waren voor de meerderheid in het parlement.

Now well into his eighties, Delsener shows little sign of slowing down. At one point, the camera follows him as he ping-pongs across New York attending multiple concerts in one evening. His love for the work of putting on a show shines through as he drags the filmmakers through crowds and backstage so he can chat with artists and crew members. Interspersed with these present-day adventures are looks back on the highlights of Delsener’s career, reflecting his own intense nostalgia. It’s rare that a documentary so completely embodies the personality of its subject.

But Mr. Stubb’s country understands the peril of peace negotiations for Ukraine perhaps better than any other. After wars with the Soviet Union in the 1940s, Finland gave up land to Moscow, agreed to neutrality and accepted limits on its military, remaining under the Kremlin’s thumb to some degree for decades.

I wonder which wars Finland fought with the Soviet Union in the 1940s

An international investigation has revealed that the body of Ukrainian journalist Viktoria Roshchyna, who died in Russian captivity, was returned to Ukraine missing several internal organs, potentially to conceal the cause of death.

According to a joint investigation by Forbidden Stories and 13 international media outlets, Roshchyna’s body was transferred to Ukraine on February 14, 2025, as part of a repatriation operation involving the return of 757 fallen Ukrainians. Russian documents marked the body, listed as number 757, as an “unidentified male” with a reference note: “СПАС.”

The attack started between 05:35 and 05:40 CDT yesterday, when the user count jumped from 387 to 909. The attack lasted until around 16:05 CDT (4 PM), when the user count dropped from 787 to 53. For the duration of the attack the user count hovered around 2000, with a maximum of 2591 users at 08:35.

When the attack concluded, I and others were unable to log in, getting a password incorrect error. I received no email notifications after being PMed, and attempts to create new accounts resulted in a blank screen. Some users were still logged in and able to post, but attempts to change passwords were unsuccessful.

The site is back up, but I'd update your passwords.

Very strong reminder that every little bit helps! Each donation brings me closer and gives some sense of relief, especially since time is short.

Strength in numbers! 20 comrades donating $20 would put me more than halfway there.

My Cash App is $QuingCrimson, and I have Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal as well. You can DM me for those. I really appreciate it!

“Speaking for myself, the Flynn Family is done being a f’ing pin cushion for the mob,” Flynn posted on X on April 17.

I'll admit I'm often verbose in my own chats about technical issues. Lately they have been replying to everyone with what seems to be LLM generated responses, as if they are copy/pasting into an LLM and copy/pasting the response back to others.

Besides calling them out on this, what would you do?

It’s always a good time to lock in for a marathon watch of Alfred Hitchcock films, and Netflix is getting ready to make a bunch of the legendary director’s features a lot easier to watch in one place.

Today, Netflix announced that it plans to stream a number of Hitchcock’s films next month as part of a showcase tributing his impact on cinema. Starting on June 1st, Netflix subscribers will be able to watch Vertigo, Rear Window, Frenzy, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Family Plot, and The Birds. The showcase will also include a selection of films by other filmmakers like Jordan Peele’s Us and Zach Cregger’s Barbarian that drew inspiration from Hitchcock’s work.

For folks keen on seeing the films at the cinema, Netflix is partnering with the Paris Theater in New York City to present “HITCH! The Original Cinema Influencer,” a six-week-long screening series designed to “highlight [Hitchcock’s] evolving technique and influence on popular culture.” The theatrical screenings, which you can buy tickets to now, are set to run from May 16th through June 29th.
