Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen announced Thursday he would challenge Sen. Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader, launching an uphill battle to lead the chamber’s Democrats after their sweeping victory in the midterms. “This is not about any one individual, but it is about answering the call of the American people,” Van Hollen said in an MS NOW interview, calling his candidacy a response to the “huge outburst of democracy” in the midterms. The closed-ballot leadership election is scheduled for December 1. Several returning Senate Democrats — and most incoming freshmen — have declined to publicly back Schumer for the job, though Schumer needs just majority support from his caucus to win.

He might mean that he doesn’t want us to die without ever hearing the tracks tbh.

Here is a summary of the day's events: Microsoft reported a major outage, saying earlier this morning it was "aggressively pursuing" methods to fix the problem. The outage is affecting several Microsoft Suite platforms, including Outlook, Teams and Copilot. A later update said the problem was caused by a "large number" of servers being made "unexpectedly unavailable". Microsoft later said it was able to get a "subset" of servers back online and was working to apply those changes more broadly. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-11-13/microsoft-outage-affects-users-worldwide/107381050

Shawn Mendes has spoken out for the first time on the situation in Gaza.⁠ ⁠ The pop singer shared a statement on his Instagram, opening with: “FREE PALESTINE.” He continued, “There is a genocide happening before our eyes. The senseless killing in Gaza must stop. The children and families in Palestine have suffered for far too long, and they need our help.”⁠ ⁠ The musician went on to explain that he’s been “working on educating myself and learning as much as I can to understand where and how I can make a difference,” noting that he encourages everyone to contribute to organizations such as the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Watermelon Pictures and the Woven Futures Fund.⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/Dfpz38yF39r/

Get used to online services having long outage, big companies insist in using AI for everything as if it was a finished product at all lmao

Of course this has to happen as I'm in the middle of working on an essay that's due at the end of the week. EDIT: Okay my essay is saved locally offline so I can still do it.

I cant imagine a bunch of songs that weren't good enough to make it on the album being released as a part 2 would have helped the art pop situation

gagged tbh. cant wait for google and meta to be affected

El-Sayed posted his endorsement on social media an hour ago.

I was gonna say this one!!! 😩

Just came across this Brooklyn Nights performance, on Melbourne, and was reminded of how special it felt when this happened, for multiple reasons. One being that Brooklyn Nights is, simply put, a very nostalgic and beautiful song in Gaga's discography, which she did not release or ever perform in full, which in turn made all of this so surprising, in a good way. The other is that it confirmed something that I felt throughout Mayhem era, in contrast with Joanne through Chromatica, which was that Gaga got her self-esteem as an artist back, and with that a renewed sense of appreciation for her catalogue. I have this thought that after ARTPOP until Mayhem marks a very particular chapter of Gaga's career. After her first chapter, that is, the explosive debut from TF through ARTPOP's "fall from grace", narratively, it feels like Mayhem closed a second chapter of sorts. After the backlash from ARTPOP, as well as her personal issues and very misguided (to say the least) decisions during that era, it felt like Gaga had lost a lot of confidence in herself, which was evident in how she avoided talking about her earlier pop career and even performing songs outside of the mandatory big hits. This started to change shortly before Mayhem era, when she performed Americano at her jazz and piano show (that was the first sign for me, personally). And throughout the era it seemed like she was, again, passionate about her work from TF through to ARTPOP, and obviously very passionate about her new record. This in turn, it seems, also inspired Mayhem as an album, and we all heard the results. It seems to me that Joanne and Chromatica where (earnest) attempts at Gaga getting back to herself, but it was only with Mayhem that she really got there, and narratively post-ARTPOP, Gaga's artistic struggle has been to find a way back to herself. Now that she did, it makes me very excited about the future. Mayhem era was phenomenal, of course, but I'm very curious to see where she takes us next, and I suspect it will be the start of a third chapter in her career, narratively speaking. What are your thoughts? Anyone agree?

Day 12: Yesterday - The Beatles

Day 12 - Everybody knows

Miley aint a pop star. Good singer, can make music I find more interesting. But she's not a performer and she's lazy as **** these days. Ari has the actual star power and drive of a popstar

Thank you so much guys for all of the wonderful tracks that you're sharing with everybody else in here. The amount of deep cuts and other unknown bangers that we get to discover is truly insane For today however we shall head into more mainstream direction of music industry cuz today's theme is...

Oh man, that really sucks. That reminds me, I should probably sign in so they don't shut my email down.

"A doctor who was locked in a lengthy legal dispute with his condominium association after alleging his penthouse suffered mold and water damage costing him hundreds of thousands of dollars is suspected of opening fire Thursday morning at a Washington, D.C., gym. One person was killed and multiple others were injured as the rampage unfolded in the trendy Logan Circle neighborhood, just a mile from the White House, drawing a rapid law enforcement presence. The suspect, Dr. Matt Lambert, was found inside his condo at the Metropole, a seven-story luxury building, dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, officials said. The gunfire erupted just after 8 a.m. at the VIDA fitness center, located on the street level at the Metropole. A man on a treadmill said that when he heard the first bang he thought it was a popped exercise ball. Another witness told NBC News that he also heard a loud noise and saw a person in a chair fall with “blood coming from his head.'" (NBC News)

I needed some things from my email but I hope it stays down thru tomorrow

This is what happens when you move your apps to the "cloud".

EVERYONE IDENTIFY AND CALL YOUR SENATORS RIGHT NOWWWW https://5calls.org/

also shout out to 3:22 in this vid when you can tell she's seen in a monitor that her hair is stuck on the horn and starts to fix it

Idk about her career, but I would have felt attacked

This is so amazing to finally hear a preview of. I won't be playing it as I don't have a console or computer with the right requirements but I'll definitely be watching the whole thing like a movie when walkthroughs get online. And I'll be checking out the inevitable full playlist uploads of all the radio stations, especially the pop one. Waiting on tenderhooks to find out if Gaga's on there. I'm predicting Ariana will considering she's from Florida and all. And we know Charli and Tate will be on there too.

She went from casting spells against Trump to chatting it up to Mr. MAGA, miss Lana banana what happened lol

I'd presume so.

The comprehension skills of this fanbase

I do agree that somehow, MAYHEM does feel like a happy ending to a difficult chapter, more than a new beginning. I’d say her looking passionate again started with The Chromatica Ball. I know it’s not technically as great as The Mayhem Ball, but for some reason I feel that it was THAT TOUR. The fire in her eyes, her voice being super great again out of nowhere, her looking excited to celebrate and show off her talent rather than looking nervous to miss the mark. And to answer your question, I’m not fully expecting anything from LG8, other than the idea that it will actually be very surprising. MAYHEM was very classic Gaga followed by classic music performed by Gaga. I think LG8 will bring a new dimension. In a very “I’m getting older and younger” way. Actually, I rarely ask myself what LG8 will be like. Cause I feel that we can’t be right. I think fans kinda expect the ballad route cause she’s just had a baby. And I feel the total opposite. Not dance pop or dark bops, or rock-influenced music or whatever we’re used to, but something out there and new. Like we’ve had Gaga, we’ve had Lady and now we’re gonna have a third part we don’t know exists. Think Requiem level of different (from her discography and others’) but with a completely different sound. I feel like she’s gonna eat us? I know it’s weird but I feel the witch in her think “I’m gonna eat them and vomit them and they’re gonna love it cause I’ve got my spells.” Not in an Abracadabra way, more spiritual and towards us. Oh and I don’t think she’ll tease the album the way she’s teased MAYHEM. I don’t expect a GAGA: CHROMATICA BALL/MAYHEM kind of run. I don’t expect studio pics months before the first single. Days before, possibly. I have a gut feeling. LG8 exists already. Not a vague idea of it, the album itself exists. Probably not finished yet, but it has its core, it has its instant hits and its growers. It has its title, it has its colors. She and the producers know about it, not the label (except maybe a song or two.) But the label knows they have solid body of work coming. And they kinda know when too. Like, they have a season or two.

Maybe he has an era incoming

Ariana not even a competition Miley been slacking for years amd got LUCKY with flowers after basically reheating Bruno Mars old nachos to get herself her first Grammy...I said it

Today is the day when Tate McRae, thanks to her hit single Sports car, officially earns her 3rd song (after greedy and you broke me first) with over 1 billion streams on Spotify

Pls that man would probably sacrifice his life to let us hear Act II

well maybe you should go and stream MAYHEM then
