The late night host announced that his interview with the Texas Senate candidate will only air on YouTube

Jimmy Kimmel says that his interview with Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico will not air on TV after President Donald Trump’s Federal Communications Commission (FCC) threatened Jimmy Kimmel Live!, ABC, their affiliates, and local stations.

During his Wednesday monologue, Kimmel said that while Talarico would stop by the show for an interview on Thursday, viewers at home won’t be able to watch it on broadcast television. Instead, the interview with the Democratic nominee has been relegated to YouTube.

“Tomorrow night, I’ll be interviewing James Talarico — tomorrow night, under unusual circumstances,” Kimmel began. “You know, for a lot of years, for the whole 20-plus years of our show, in fact, I’ve been interviewing Americans who are running for office with no problem at all, just like Letterman did, Leno did, Arsenio, et cetera, et cetera. I’ve interviewed a lot of political candidates from Hillary Clinton to Ted Cruz to Donald Trump himself.”

The guy is on a roll!

Charlie, what do you think?

ECBAWM.

I've received this picture from a friend of mine who's living there, in which she tried purchasing Resident Evil Requiem whilst on sale (meanwhile, I can view that page as normal in my region). That's only speaking about being signed in, its the same when a guest tries to view the page (rendering it inaccessible even to visitors without a steam account). I'm not from there, but to me that sounds completely retarded. If you or know someone who is from AU, is this annoying to put up with when buying games?

Today’s game is Halo. I admittedly didn’t have much I did today. I ended up booting Halo to play campaign. I figured I could grab some of the loose stragglers I have in terms of achievements for fun. I accidentally booted it up without Anti Cheat though. And that’s when i remembered “Oh yeah. I have mods”. I ended up spending all day just exploring them.

Like the one above was an incredibly faithful yet imaginative recreation of 2-fort. It was cool. I wish I had friends playing with me. But it did inspire me to see if I could do the same in Forge. Probably not. I imagine my skills are lacking and forge is less free than full on modding. But it’d be a fun challenge that I’d love to try.

Another map I played was one that was a tiny Halo Ring. I expected like a quick recap of a single level or an entire series of them. But nope. This thing was a full on recap of the entire campaign, ending in Chief’s escape.

I thought it was really cool that it denied my expectations like that. I guess I had just expected less and it delivered more.

The last level I looked at was this backrooms one. I went through it but I didn’t realize it was going to be horror. I don’t mind horror all that much, but If I’m going to be playing a Horror Halo Map I want to do it Co-op with my usual Co-op buddy. They aren’t nearly as tolerant to Horror as I am and I think it will make it infinitely more amusing.

I ended up just cutting it short because of that. I really didn’t want to spoil myself for the rest, as I still enjoy getting scared by horror. I feel like that’s the major appeal of horror. To get scared by it (at least on a surface level. On an analytical level it means a lot more to me). Or at-least for me that’s what the appeal is. So I think I’ll save it for later. I fully expect to be coming back to this though, and may even make it a screenshot.

The United States just had its hottest summer in 132 years of recordkeeping, soundly beating the summer of 1936 — during the Dust Bowl era — as well as the summer of 2021, according to data released Wednesday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Previously, those two years had tied for the hottest summer.

The Dust Bowl summer of 1936 has been long been regarded as the benchmark of hottest summers in the US, but has now been equaled or eclipsed twice in the past five years thanks to the influence of human-caused climate change. August 2026 and the June-through-August period both set all-time records, and July was the hottest month of any month on record in the US. The difference between the new and old seasonal records was 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit, which is relatively large for an all-time temperature record.

Til: The Red-Tailed Hawks, are the hawk noises that are dubbed over Bald Eagles in most Hollywood movies because in reality Bald Eagles don't sound as powerful or as cinematic.

The unfriendly skies: On United, your checked bags might be riding alongside some tank parts bound for Israel.

United Airlines is set to resume the shipment of military hardware to Israel aboard passenger flights, according to shipping data reviewed by The Intercept. The airline, one of the biggest in the world, had halted the practice more than six months ago amid the outbreak of the war on Iran.

On Wednesday evening, United is scheduled to transport five shipments of military cargo onboard United Airlines flight 90, a passenger route from Newark Liberty International Airport, in New Jersey, to Tel Aviv, Israel, a day after resuming the route and another direct flight to Israel, records show.

Using open-source methods to find publicly accessible cargo documents, researchers with the Movement Research Unit — a group that provides investigative muscle for left-wing groups and causes — said they tracked 2,761 shipments to weapons manufacturers transported by United aboard 160 civilian passenger flights between July 24, 2025, and February 27, 2026.
