Over the weekend, on his Truth Social, Trump shared a video purporting to be a segment on Fox News — it wasn’t — in which an AI-generated, deepfaked version of himself sat in the White House and promised that “every American will soon receive their own MedBed card” that will grant them access to new “MedBed hospitals.” What? Believers in the “MedBed” conspiracy theory think certain hospital beds are loaded with futuristic technology that can reverse any disease, regenerate limbs, and de-age people. No one has an actual photo of these beds because they don’t exist.

He walked around with it smiling, but then the bigger boy took it and the baby started screaming again. Just as the Mom was about to fuss at the older child, he bent the glow sticks and handed them back to the baby. As we walked outside at the same time, the baby noticed that the stick was now glowing, and his brother said, “I had to break…

How Captain Crabcakes Got His Parrot First, I set a goal to save the money I needed. Parrots cost 48 gold doubloons! That seemed like an enormous amount of treasure!

How many times did I have to save 10 doubloons to get the 48 I needed to buy Poseidon? Angelina’s Reading Goal Angelina had the goal of reading 20 hours in one month.
