The last time CNN management made headlines, there was a new rightwinger in charge, favorite shows got cancelled, Aaron Brown, Brian Stelter got the boot, then so did "Let's Get After It" guy Chris Cuomo, and then his neighbor Don Lemon....
...after Don was bunched up with Laura Coates & others in a morning show that Don just wasn't having...

...and then quiet.

Personnel sorta slowly migrated again while the backdrop for Larry King Live was resurrected with Laura Coates stuck in there, and now Aaron Brown's old gig, Newsnight--but to be fair, Newsnight was already a knock-off of the Brit show of the same name.

So what happened with the CNN brass? The new guy got old quick? Hmmmm. Maybe we'll see Jon Stewart's "favorite" show return, too.

At the end of "The Best of Both Worlds pt 2," the Borg are hoist by their own Picard

A transporter bridge is basically a cross between a suspension bridge, a train, and a ferry. A suspension bridge is high over the water to provide clearance for ships. On it a sort of electric trolley runs back and forth, and hanging from it is a platform to carry cars and pedestrians across the river near river level.

(Really failing to keep up with real time, as per usual.)

I ended the first day in Bilbao, on the north coast of Spain. It looks like a neat town that I’ll have to visit again, but my one objective on this visit is this massive steel age sculpture, the Vizcaya transporter bridge.

The bridge was completed in 1893, and has generally operated since then, aside from being lightly blown up during the Spanish Civil War. The gondola was replaced in the 70s, which is why it’s so ugly and out of place. Hopefully the UNESCO listing now still allows them to replace it eventually with a better one. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vizcay

The views from the top are excellent. Workers were in the process of installing a large TV on the side.

Remote work has made employment more accessible than ever, and increased the number of disabled people with jobs.

Working from home can also cut the carbon footprint of employees in half.

Forcing people back to the office goes against workers' rights, disability justice, and climate justice.

Putting in a good word for Museo in that creatures with wings don't recognize the political borders invented by humans...whether the given creature is vertibrate or invertibrate.

Far be it from me to argue the inarguable, but you seem to be up for it.

Philosophy is personal opinion--no more, no less. That's why scholarly philosophy studies are riddled with a pantheon of names which get pigeonholed as to type, rather than any discussion of principle.

It's inarguable because this is my personal opinion, which you could also call my philosophy, and you really have no say in the matter.

It's quite clear based on all available evidence that people who design computer chairs have never used a computer. Or a chair.
