The payout is confusing to me. The article says you win $1 million a year for life but then says it will be paid as an annuity. So does that mean you get a portion of the prize each year or the $1 million?

All things being equal, I'd take the lump sum, because a predetermined payout of a fixed amount of money in the future is always worth less than it is now, at least as long as the current oligarchy runs the economy and makes its profits off inflation.

Josh D’Amaro Is Disney’s Next CEO, Replacing Bob Iger

The Walt Disney Co., after a more than two-year saga, has landed on its next CEO: Josh D’Amaro, head of the company’s theme parks and consumer products division.

D’Amaro will take over the top job at Disney from current CEO Bob Iger, who cumulatively has served in the post for nearly two decades. The Disney board on Tuesday announced the selection of D’Amaro, currently chairman of Disney Experiences, capping the media giant’s extended and closely watched succession drama.

He goes after someone every day. It's how he keeps the Nooz about him, distorting our perception of the real situation in this country. There will be some kind of scare every day while this clown is running it. The only thing that keeps us sane is to ignore it until something actually breaks for real, then to protest it.

New York officials to re-raise pride flag removed from LGBT monument

New York officials plan to re-raise a rainbow Pride flag at the Stonewall National Monument in Manhattan after the Trump Administration removed it in recent days from the site known for kickstarting the modern LGBT rights movement.


Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal, an openly gay Democrat, posted a video on X on Tuesday evening, showing where the flag was supposed to be and saying, “Our community is not going to stand by idly as the Trump Administration tries to erase our history.” Hoylman-Sigal said that he and other officials would reinstall the flag at the monument at 4 p.m. Thursday.

Very good. The Republicans have read all the right books, and they know all about the power of changing history. If we can't change them out of office, we can at least change history back to the way things really happened.

Rent Board Resignation Clears Path for Mamdani Rent Freeze Promise

Mayor Zohran Mamdani will be able to appoint six members to the Rent Guidelines Board, giving him a majority of appointees to deliver his signature campaign proposal of a rent freeze for rent-stabilized apartments.

Alex Armlovich, a member of the board who was appointed by Mayor Eric Adams to a four-year term that runs through 2026, resigned Tuesday. He’s the third member to resign or signal intent to leave the board this month.
