sticks to his announcement from earlier this month, then at some point on April 1 — which on the west coast, as of this writing begins in approximately 45 minutes — Twitter’s account verification system will end; at that point, all so-called “legacy” verified accounts will lose their blue checkmarks, and only people willing to pay $8 a month for a subscription to Twitter Blue will get to have them.But as we’ve seen all week, the plan to convert “legacy” verified account holders into paid subscribers doesn’t appear, so far, to be a rollicking success. Case in point, Musk’s apparent social media rival, President Joe Biden.

the indictment of Donald Trump, which is of course something of a surprise, since documents released as part of Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit against Fox News prove that at least in 2021, he hated Trump “passionately.”Nevertheless, Carlson was outraged on Trump’s behalf on Friday’s episode of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” and while articulating his disdain of the American legal system, Carlson devised an unusual legal argument in Trump’s defense. In short, “I know you [the grand jury] are but what am I {Trump]?”You can watch the clip at the top of the page (courtesy of nikki mccann ramírez on Twitter).The comments came during a longer rant where among other things, Carlson called the situation “third world.”“And if that isn’t third world enough, someone leaked the news of Donald Trump’s grand jury indictment to the media.

Murtada Elfadl Making a rom-com that cuts through the clutter these days can be a tall order. Once a regular date-night megaplex staple, most seem to wind up buried on streaming platforms, easily lost soon after their release.

There’s fast-talking repartee, witty dialogue and fantastic chemistry between his leads Zosia Mamet and Aristotle Athar. It’s in what he chooses to surround his lead characters with, that he foibles the surefire setup.

Gwyneth Paltrow consciously uncoupled from ordinary life years ago. In the era of celebrity relatability, with once mysterious A-listers now sharing everything from breakfast to breakdowns on social media, she is one star completely comfortable with the world knowing she exists on a higher plane of bone broth, vagina candles, and $8,000-a-day skiing lessons.

Ozzy Osbourne will be among the headliners announced this week for the first Power Trip Festival in Indio, California, this fall.  The hard rock festival, which will also be headlined by legends Guns N’ Roses, Metallica and AC/DC, marks the "Black Sabbath" frontman’s return to performing after canceling all of his 2023 tour dates and announcing he would be retiring from touring due to ongoing health issues.  "I am honestly humbled by the way you’ve all patiently held onto your tickets for all this time, but in all good conscience, I have now come to the realization that I’m not physically capable of doing my upcoming European/UK tour dates, as I know I couldn’t deal with the travel required," he posted on his social media accounts in February.  He said his "singing voice is fine," but he remains physically weak after three operations, stem cell treatments, physical therapy and Hybrid Assistive Limb treatment, which uses a robotic exoskeleton to help improve movement. But he said he still wants to perform.  "My team is currently coming up with ideas for where I will be able to perform without having to travel from city to city and country to country," he added in his statement.  Later that month during an episode of SiriusXM’s Ozzy’s Boneyard, he stressed, "I'm f---ing not dying," saying he was annoyed at seeing press reports that suggested he was "on his last legs." He admitted that he underwent "life-altering" surgery in June 2022 and is still in "constant pain" related to spinal injury four years ago.  The rocker, who has been seen recently with a cane, opened up about his physical ailments and his ongoing battle with Parkinson's disease in an interview with The Observer last year.

After five decades — no exaggeration — of being accused of crimes, Donald Trump was indicted for the first time on Thursday.

Lily Moayeri Jean-Michel Basquiat was the quintessential New York City artist during his life and after his death. So the arrival of the exhibition Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure© at the Grand LA in the heart of downtown Los Angeles is a welcome one for those left-coasters who couldn’t catch the display at RXR’s Starrett-Lehigh Building in New York in 2022, where it attracted 210,000 visitors over eight months. King Pleasure (stylized as King Pleasure©) is presented by Basquiat’s family, with his sisters, Lisane Basquiat and Jeanine Heriveaux guiding and curating the project. This is the first time the artist’s family has opened his estate’s vault, which they have administered since his untimely death in 1988 at the age of 27. Designed by architect David Adjaye with Abbott Miller of Pentagram creating the exhibition’s identity, King Pleasure features over 200 rare and never seen before pieces.

and “Jurassic Park.” This conversation has been edited for length and clarity. How did you make a “Dungeons and Dragons” movie that was appealing both to fans and to those who have, at best, heard of the game? Jonathan Goldstein: John and I would do what we called “a proper noun check,” where if we felt like we were piling on references of any kind, we would make sure that it didn’t start to feel like you were missing anything. John Francis Daley: It’s like the first “Star Wars,” where there’s the suggestion that there is this world that exists outside of our core characters, but you don’t need to know anything about politics [or the outside world] to enjoy the film. Goldstein: Likewise, you don’t have to have read the “Lord of the Rings” books to enjoy the movies.  Daley: We tried to set ourselves apart and create this access point for people who were naturally averse to fantasy. In our film, “Dungeons and Dragons” inherently exists in this quasi-contemporary space.
