House Speaker Mike Johnson is negotiating with the White House as he prepares for the treacherous task of advancing wartime funding for Ukraine and Israel through the House, a top House Republican said Thursday.
House Republican Leader Steve Scalise told reporters that Johnson had been talking with White House officials about a package that would deviate from the Senate’s $95 billion foreign security package and include several Republican demands.
It comes after Johnson has delaye…

Exclusive: Q+A With Director Diego Vicentini: The fear, threats and bravery of his feature film debut, Simón - Global Comment
The film Simón strikes a deep chord through an exploration of migratory guilt and the loss of roots and the trauma of repression. Venezuelan director Diego Vicentini's debut feature — which ranked in Netflix's top 10 for weeks — follows a young student who, during his application for asylum in the United States, relives the

After 11 months of being here, I decided to do a very small reflection.
When I first arrived, I didn't have any expectations or goals I'd like to achieve. Matter of fact, the main reason I left Twitter is because of all the bots that followed me and how I almost never got any real interaction.
Over time, things got a little rocky here and it seemed as though, personally, I wasn't going to be enjoying it any further at that time and contemplating shutting the instance down completely and just "disappearing".
However, several months on from that, I'm VERY glad I didn't. I like it here and I like having my "own little space" where nobody can tell me what I can and cannot discuss nor what I can and cannot see.
Something I've just recently realized though, is how important a good bit of you have become to me, personally and my Fedi experience would be very lacking without some of you here. What I didn't expect, was getting that same sentiment back when I discussed it with those few of you. I really appreciate knowing that for some of you, I have been consistently a "good" addition to your timelines and everyday online life.
Those types of comments and feelings they give me, keep me here and sane on those wilder days. To each and every one of you that have followed me for so long, through all the craziness, slight drama, wild opinions, and more, THANK YOU.
If I hadn't been almost universally accepted with such open arms and returned the same energy I try to put out, then I doubt I would still be here to this day.
I'm 11 months in and I think I'm ready to "give back" to those few folks that I consider friends and am on the cusps of creating something new and hopefully something good for Fedi as a whole.
I'm going to keep it very limited for specific reasons I'll lay out later. But, this is new ground for me and I have to figure some things out and hopefully not make too many missteps and learn some things along the way.
Thank you Fedi. I wouldn't be who I am right now, without you.

Good morning and happy Monday #Fediverse
How are we all doing today and what all did we do for the weekend? Anything fun and/or exciting?
We stayed home all weekend and just relaxed and played a bit of Fortnite here and there. Nothing too special, plus it was raining most of the weekend.
Today it's work stuff with a meeting at 12pm, and then nothing much after that.…

For everybody who wasn't there, here's what you missed at yesterday's Godot Engine Meetup in Berlin: Grown adults toying around at a kid's playground. 😁 (Note: There were a lot more people! It's just that I took my photos at the end of the event.)

President Biden last night said the US will stop supplying specific weapons to Israel if it launches a major ground operation in Rafah in Gaza
– a move commended by progressive lawmakers like Senator Bernie Sanders and democratic US house representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
In response, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israel…
