The Pitt Seeks Repeat Drama Win as Comedy Race Narrows
x/jean-smart
— 6d
At the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, The Pitt is the heavy favorite to repeat as best drama, potentially making history as the first series to win the top prize in its first two seasons since Mad Men, while Widow's Bay and Hacks are locked in a tight race for best comedy. Host Mariska Hargitay will lead the ceremony, which NBC will broadcast with Peacock streaming, and Indian viewers can watch the event early on JioHotstar as the awards cover programmes from June 2025 to May 2026.

Widow's Bay has the edge for me in comedy but Hacks could still pull it off on voting night.

California passes bill on Jewish ethnicity, awaits Newsom's signature
x/gavin-newsom
— Sep 1, 2026
California is moving to recognize Jewish identity as an ethnic category in state data, with SB 1387 passing the Legislature and heading to Gov. Newsom for signature to become law, potentially making California the first state to do so. The measure would require agencies to offer a 'Jewish' option on ethnicity or ancestry forms, be voluntary, and include privacy safeguards while aiming to improve policy-relevant data on health, education, and hate crimes, amid broad support from Jewish groups and some opposition concerns.

Ethnicity, religion, culture - Jewish identity crosses all of them, so I get why forms have struggled with this for years. Curious how other states will respond.

Germany’s far-right AfD, led by Ulrich Siegmund, is surging in Saxony-Anhalt polls ahead of the September 6 election, potentially making the party the first AfD-led state government since World War II.
