My favorite class-action lawsuits are the ones that are as easy as clicking "opt in" — as opposed to ones that require forms and old documents and have lots of fine print. $TWTR

Twitter has seen arguably many negative changes in its X era, but I have appreciated the community notes, which lean fully into brutal truths — and on the person's actual posts.

Novaya Gazeta, Russia's last free newspaper, has been killed by the Kremlin. Its staff agreed to close it down after it was branded a "foreign agent" and its financial channels blocked.

.@LastWeekTonight’s main segment tonight is thorough criticism of Pete Hegseth before and during his tenure as secretary of defense. Seems to be timed with impending action on impeachment.

I don't feel as bad for the #Nets players because they're waiting to quickly move to a better team.
I continue to feel bad for the #Jazz. So much talent and anticipation for the next season, but then so much disappointment that it seems inevitable.
