The attempt to discredit was shameless

lol I just realized Trump is treating the voters like his construction crews on a building project. Tell them to do a job and then stiff them on the promised compensation.

Matt Berry plays a Ikea shelf companion in the new promotional mod for Skyrim

Ikea:
IKEA, as the bastions of storage and organisation, are bringing their wisdom to Skyrim.


Introducing KALLAX STORAGEBORN. A new companion, voiced by Matt Berry, built to send clutter back to the fires of Oblivion!


When you inevitably become encumbered, you shall be sent to a long abandoned Dwemer emporium. There, you will embark on a quest to unravel the origins of a mysterious master. As you progress the Dragonborn will be pitted against Tamriel's ultimate adversary - clutter!


During your adventure, build your very own KALLAX STORAGEBORN. With unfathomable storage capacity, the ability to collect loot, tidy up your homestead and be summoned with a new Thu’um, even when not a companion, KALLAX will change your clutter management forever.


Fill KALLAX with new loot like the mighty Allenblade and Meatball Helmet. Using them in combat to strike down new fiercely filthy foes.


Then take KALLAX anywhere. Defeat Alduin, become Arch-Mage, hail Sithis, crush the Stormcloaks or the Imperials, or just beat up mudcrabs. All without the shackles of encumbrance.


Install KALLAX STORAGEBORN and end your inventory woes forevermore.

The LATimes tries to answer who is behind the secretive multimillion-dollar campaign to crush California’s single-use plastics law

LAT:

At the new packaging coalition, one lobbyist is [], the former head of CalRecycle, who helped draft, negotiate and usher in the regulations for the single-use plastics bill.

An ethics complaint was filed against her in February 2025, and she left that group three months later. The state did not pursue the case.

But according to lobbying disclosures, she’s back trying to dismantle the law and since July of last year
