Police intensify hunt for Louvre thieves as France reels from jewel heist
There aren’t many jewelry heists anymore, so this is exciting.
French authorities raced against the clock Tuesday, intensifying their hunt for the priceless royal jewels stolen from the Louvre, and the thieves whose brazen daylight robbery left the nation reeling.

3 takeaways from Saturday’s No Kings nationwide protests
I am trying to understand the objective of the “No Kings” protests. It’s like Lisa Simpson’s anti-tiger rock. In a little over 3 years, when Trump’s term wraps up, the “No Kings” protestors will take credit for the peaceful transfer of power.

U.S. Army Plans to Power Bases With Tiny Nuclear Reactors
This microreactor from Valar Atomics looks super cool, and this sounds like a good idea.

Peacemaker Season 2 is out, and getting mixed reviews. Some people are skipping it entirely because it sounds so bad and they are sick of weak superhero movies and TV shows. I liked season 1, so tried it out. Season 2 is better than people are saying, but James Gunn made some odd decisions.
