Coon, 45, played newly divorced New York attorney Laurie Duffy in the latest season of the hit HBO anthology series The White Lotus, which has become known for its star-making power, having bolstered the careers of Jennifer Coolidge, Hailey Lou Richardson, Meghann Fahy and Leo Woodall. “Here’s the thing: I still have to fight,” Coon said during a roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter. “I’m going to have to fight for big movies. What am I getting? I’m getting unfinanced indie scripts. That’s what I’m getting.” Since The White Lotus, Coon appeared in the third season of HBO’s The Gilded Age and the Broadway production of Bug, written by …

AI Is Now Appearing in Plotlines—and It’s Starring as a Very Bad Guy

AI Is Now Appearing in Plotlines—and It’s Starring as a Very Bad Guy

“Why are you trying to optimize the creative process?” snaps Deborah Vance on the sixth episode of Hacks’ latest season. “That’s one of the things we’ve actually figured out—we’re good there.” Deborah, played by Jean Smart on the hit HBO comedy, is talking to a tech bro who is trying to convince her to get on board with the AI revolution and use her voice and writing to create an AI program. While she’s open to the idea at first, she realizes the program would erase all the parts of the creative process that, in the end, lead to real, human comedy. She turns him down—hard. Hacks is just one of several HBO shows this season to make AI a main character—and a controversial one at that. On the third season of The Comeback, Valerie (Lisa Kudrow) gets a job leading a new sitcom that is secretly being written by AI. On The Pitt, a new doctor is pushing for an AI program that she claims will help the doctors with efficiency and diagnosis. Even …

Oz Pearlman Not Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live After WHCD Shooting

Oz Pearlman Not Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live After WHCD Shooting

Oz Pearlman won’t be a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Monday night anymore. Despite being previously scheduled to appear on the ABC late night talk show on Monday, updated listings show the mentalist was swapped with Pod Save America co-host Jon Lovett. The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to ABC for comment. Monday’s episode will also feature guest Anthony Anderson. The move comes days after shots were fired at the 2026 White House Correspondents’ Dinner Saturday night, where Pearlman was serving as the host. Moments before the incident unfolded — which saw  31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen, armed with multiple weapons, reportedly charged through a security checkpoint at the Washington Hilton — Pearlman was performing a magic trick on Karoline Leavitt, who was sitting next to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump in the ballroom. They were then all seen ducking to the ground behind the table on stage, before Trump and Melania were rushed out of the room. Allen, who was subdued by authorities, has since been charged with attempting to assassinate Trump. Pearlman later released …

Ominous Surveillance “Scarecrows” Appearing Across America

Ominous Surveillance “Scarecrows” Appearing Across America

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Police technology is a major business in the US. Altogether, the law enforcement equipment market was valued at nearly $11.7 billion in 2025, and as dystopian toys like self-driving squad cars and crime fighting drone hives make it to market, that number is set to skyrocket. A growing favorite among police departments throughout the country is the “camera on wheels” platform, known as COWs for short — or “scarecrows,” for a more ominous moniker. While they’re not quite as exciting as “Fallout” style police robots, COWs offer a low-effort solution to departments whose panopticon has a few blind spots. COWs are basically tiny tow-trailers with a solar panel, battery, and telescoping CCTV mast attached. They’re sold by high-tech ventures such as Flock Safety — shown below — and rented out by legacy security enterprises like Allied Universal. As Nile Coates, vice president of US sales at surveillance firm ECAM said in a rather uncritical interview with news outlet …

What is paraxanthine? The ‘caffeine alternative’ appearing in coffee and energy drinks

What is paraxanthine? The ‘caffeine alternative’ appearing in coffee and energy drinks

Sign up to IndyEat’s free newsletter for weekly recipes, foodie features and cookbook releases Get our food and drink newsletter for free Get our food and drink newsletter for free Paraxanthine, a compound the body naturally produces when it breaks down caffeine, is starting to appear in energy drinks and even some coffee products as a potential caffeine alternative. Brands claim that using this compound directly can provide a steadier form of alertness, promising “focused, clean energy” and no jitters or crash. A small number of beverage and supplement companies are now exploring paraxanthine as an alternative stimulant. Some coffee brands have also begun experimenting with the compound, positioning it as a different way to deliver alertness without relying on caffeine. The ingredient is part of a broader search for caffeine alternatives as drink companies try to differentiate themselves in a crowded market. It also reflects the wider growth of “functional” drinks that promise sharper focus, sustained energy or other performance benefits. The idea is simple: because paraxanthine is responsible for many of caffeine’s stimulant …

White House Provides Explanation of Scabby Mark Appearing on Trump’s Neck

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech After major strikes in Iran, president Donald Trump wasn’t in a hurry to return to the Oval Office to oversee the massive military offensive. Instead, he attended what the New York Times described as a “glitzy fund-raising dinner” at Mar-a-Lago private club and residence in Florida. After a similar lack of public engagement on Sunday, Trump finally appeared in front of the press on Monday morning to deliver comments on the burgeoning war and to award a Medal of Honor to retired United States Army major Terry Richardson. At the event, onlookers noticed a “significant rash-like injury” on the right side of his neck. Indeed, press photos by Agence France-Presse‘s Saul Loeb show what looks like a prominent reddish wound or scabbing below his right ear, obscured by the white collar of his shirt. In response to questions, the White House provided a statement attributed to Trump’s physician Sean Barbabella. “President Trump is using a very common cream …

Mysterious stains keep appearing on towels for 1 reason | UK | News

Towels can get dirty and ragged quickly (stock image) (Image: Getty) It’s hardly surprising that towels can become worn and stained over time. They’re the first thing we grab after a bath or shower, and we use them to dry our hands countless times each day. This frequent use, coupled with regular spins in the washing machine, inevitably leads to them looking a bit shabby eventually. According to Good Housekeeping you should replace your bath towels every two to three years, and hand towels and washcloths as frequently as once a year. However, most of the time, chucking them in the washing machine after a few uses is usually sufficient to keep them clean.

These stains persisted even after washing and drying. Sharing a photo of variously coloured towels, including grey, brown, …

By appearing with a royal heiress, Jordan Bardella risks blurring his image

Jordan Bardella at the Grand-Palais during the bicentennial of ‘Le Figaro’ newspaper, Paris, January 13, 2026. JULIEN DE ROSA / AFP What game is Jordan Bardella playing? Why did he appear alongside the Italian heiress of a “royal” family, among the wealthiest of the international jet set, during a party that brought together Paris’s elite on Tuesday, January 13, at the Grand Palais? What message did the president of France’s far-right Rassemblement National (RN) party intend to send by leaving an event under the glare of cameras with Maria Carolina of Bourbon-Two Sicilies? Bardella claims to be the voice “of a forgotten people” and the “authentic spokesperson for a France despised by the elites,” yet in appearing in public with the heiress to a fortune worth several hundred million euros – at a time when angry farmers are descending upon Paris –his choice has not gone unnoticed. The closeness between the two even made the front page of Italian daily newspaper’s La Repubblica‘s website on Friday. Under the blue-hued nave of the Grand Palais, among …
