Kraft Group blasts Foxborough over security negotiations for World Cup In a sharply worded new statement, the company says it "would like to understand what the town requires at this stage to get to 'yes." Chris Serres • Updated March 7th, 2026, 12:31 pm

The Kraft Group is worth billions but won’t put up $7.8M for World Cup costs, leaving a town of 18,600 to manage public safety for a 7-day global event while schools across the entire state can barely cover costs. They want to blast the Select Board? That’s some billionaire BS

Bob Kraft has a net worth of somewhere around $11 billion. Why does he not simply give the money to Foxborough up front and then get reimbursed by the Boston 2026 committee? That's the easy solution here.

And if you pay someone using a credit card, you are not anonymous. Actually, lets make it even simpler.

You are not anonymous.

The only question is how hard you've made it to find your identity. It's not impossible. You have made at least one mistake, and that's all it takes.

Boomerang made from mammoth tusk with 5 cm scale

A boomerang made from mammoth ivory, from Obłazowa Cave, Poland. Dating to around 40,000 years ago, the object was shaped and well-used, with signs of polish in the areas where a right-handed person would have handled and thrown it.

Apparently not an edit, they really did it. There’s no squish sound effect at the end but still

The emerging “Claude killed the kids” frame on this story shows just how easily anti-AI counterhype can end up doing the government’s work for it. If you use a computer to choose targets—esp. but not only if you give it bad data to work with—and it chooses poorly, that‘s on you, not the computer!

A black and white photo of the foot of a bed with a white comforter on it. Hiding almost completely out of site is tiny cat Quark, who is sitting on her stairs waiting to ambush. On the tips of her two black ears are seen peeking above the edge of the bed because she is a master at blending in to her surroundings. In the background against the wall park of a water fountain and a large scratching post are seen.

She’s an apex predator.

Niiiice.

Perfect description & yes.

Had an existential crisis downstairs at the Middle East when I realized I was old enough to be all of Lucero’s mother.

I think theres a few companies that rely heavily on aluminum and plastic packaging that could be in a real margin crush

Hey look, it’s Patriots fans’ money being used to do favors for the fascist Trump regime, again

hands down the absolute *strangest* “on background” sourcing I have ever seen in the NYT. Completely bonkers stuff www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Maybe it’s just me but every time I see this ad in the @theguardian.com my brain processes it as an 8-fingered long-clawed disembodied horror hand and I have to stop yet again and think what the hell is that thing and why is it in the Saturday Feast food magazine
