Five people, including two doctors and Matthew Perry’s personal assistant, have been charged in the actor’s tragic death, the New York Times reports.

Prosecutors said that Perry’s assistant and an acquaintance procured thousands of dollars worth of ketamine for the beloved actor by working with two doctors and a drug dealer, per the Times.

Perry, 54, died of an accidental overdose last October. The Friends star was found unresponsive in his whirlpool bath at his Los Angeles home. A toxicology report revealed that Perry had died of “the acute effects of ketamine.” The report also listed drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of buprenorphine, a medication approved by the FDA to treat opioid use disorder. https://katiecouricmedia.visitlink.me/6Scdhg

Vice President Kamala Harris’s candidacy has undoubtedly shaken up the 2024 race. If elected, she would become the first female president, and Democratic strategists say this isn’t lost on women.

“Becoming the highest-ranking woman in history as the vice president of the United States was a historic moment in its own right,” Jonae Wartel, a partner at political consulting firm Arc Initiatives, says. “Now the opportunity for her to make even greater history as potentially the first woman president, the first Black woman president, and the first South Asian American president is pretty incredible. And the energy we’ve seen from across the country around her candidacy has just really powered the campaign.”

How can women organize status in the office? Organizational psychologist explains how women can fight gender bias at work.

“In psychology, there’s something called an interpersonal circumplex of person perception. When we look at someone, the judgements we make aren’t random. They’re organized along two dimensions.

One measure is assertiveness — how competent they are, how decisive, how persistent, how organized. The other dimension is warmth — how they rate in qualities like friendliness, likeability, sincerity. These are two very important aspects of respect, and if you rank high in both, you end up in what I call the likeable badass quadrant. If you’re in this territory, you’re going to accrue status, because if people think you’re really good at what you do and you care about other people, they’re going to respect you.”

To illustrate this, KCM took the characters from Parks and Rec and charted them along these two axes. See the upper right hand quadrant, where you can find Leslie Knope? That’s likeable badass territory, Dr. Fragale says.

Imagine if someone built a highway right above your home and then blindfolded you. Humans may not notice it, but the underwater rumble of shipping traffic in the Pacific Northwest is considered by scientists to be a form of habitat destruction for marine life, particularly for the Southern Resident Killer Whales, local celebrities of the Salish Sea.

The SRKWs are at risk because of a dangerous cocktail of threats, which — when combined with a small population of older animals — could mean disaster. If we fail to address issues like noise pollution, they could be the first species to go extinct despite such a deep level of understanding by scientists.

One of SeaLegacy’s partners, Oceans Initiative, has employed a team of scientists to tackle this issue. Through solid research, they are finding viable solutions to inform policy and management.

Considering Donald Trump was once suspended from X — then Twitter — “due to the risk of further incitement of violence” after the Capitol riot, he found a very sympathetic ear in the platform’s new owner.

After a 40-minute delay due to technical issues, Elon Musk interviewed Trump live on X, offering up softball questions that gave him ample opportunity to attack Vice President Kamala Harris, repeat his false election claims, and call the criminal cases against him a “conspiracy” cooked up by the Biden administration.

We’ve got more on the conversation more than a million X users reportedly tuned in to — plus a quick fact-check on some of Trump’s more outrageous claims.
