In the hours and days after Charlie Kirk’s killing, the breadth of people — particularly younger ones — sharing grief and shock on newsfeeds, Instagram stories, or TikTok livestreams might have been surprising.

While I generally respect The Wall Street Journal, every once in a while it sees fit to remind me that it is, in fact, owned by Rupert Murdoch. This time, it printed something dangerously close to anti-trans blood libel in the wake of Charlie Kirk's shooting. In its live-update blog yesterday, the Journal wrote, "Ammunition […] Read more ›

In the days since the killing of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, the overwhelming response on the left has been shock and horror. No one of prominence has justified the killing; hundreds, from Democratic Party leadership on down, have condemned political violence. But below the unanimity is a subtler debate: not about how to respond to […] Read more ›

Apple calls it “a paradox you have to hold to believe”. It’s actually replacing the not-so-popular iPhone 16 Plus, so it gets a big 6.5-inch LTPO Super Retina OLED display with ProMotion 120Hz refresh rate. It also features... Read more ›
