Wicked actress Marissa Bode claims that she was allegedly barred from boarding a commercial flight as a wheelchair user. “I was denied boarding a flight because I was disabled. I wish that were clickbait [and] I wish that were false, but that is what happened,” Bode, 25, said in a TikTok video shared Thursday, April 23, tagging Southern Airways in her caption. “As long as airlines are s***y, I’m going to continue talking about it.” She continued, “For my other disabled peers out there, do not fly Southern Airways.

The White House is reportedly considering a plan to take over Spirit Airlines and use part of the bankrupt carrier’s fleet for military missions.   Under the proposal, President Trump would invoke the Defense Production Act to loan Spirit Airlines money for national defense purposes, CBS News reported on Friday.  The Pentagon would then use the budget airline’s “excess capacity for transporting troops, military cargo or other missions,” the outlet said, citing sources.  Spirit’s creditors would need to sign-off on the strategy. The company, known for its bright-yellow planes and low-cost fares, has declared bankruptcy twice in the past two years. …

2026 is only four months old, but it’s safe to say that Wuthering Heights, Emerald Fennell‘s risque adaptation of Emily Brontë’s beloved 1847 novel, is the year’s most controversial movie. (Sorry, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.) With sex scenes not included in the novel, and numerous suggestive shots of ripe, juicy fruits standing in for assorted body parts, the overwrought romantic drama struck a chord with viewers, propelling it to an impressive $241 million worldwide box office gross. Not everyone fell in love with Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi‘s torrid romance, but if you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll soon…

A ratbag group of cop-hating Black Lives Matters activists were handed the floor at City Hall as they launched a campaign to block extra funding to hire more police in Los Angeles.

At stake is the city’s $14.9 billion budget, the single most consequential decision City Hall makes each year. The group, led Friday by Melina Abdullah, demanded the council shift…

Could this be the golden ticket for diabetes patients? Over 40.1 million Americans — roughly 12% of the US population — have diabetes, a chronic condition characterized by consistently elevated blood sugar. Type 1 diabetes, often diagnosed in childhood, is an autoimmune disease where the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin to use sugar for energy. Type 2 diabetes, which is more common in adults, is strongly tied to insulin resistance and obesity. Now, researchers from the Florida Institute of Technology have identified a popular spice that could help stave off heart damage caused by diabetes. Curcumin gives turmeric, a staple…

A sociology and public health researcher says the Saskatchewan government’s policies for dealing with addictions are rolling back progress made in the last 30 years, in the wake of the shutdown of Saskatoon’s only safe consumption site. “I think that we are taking a step backwards in our approach of looking at abstinence-only treatment focus modalities in isolation from looking at things like harm reduction, for looking at other modes of community supports, community-based resources, or other prevention mechanisms that look at whole communities and whole families,” said Maryellen Gibson, doctoral candidate at the University of Saskatchewan.Two weeks ago, Prairie…

Disgraced congressman Eric Swalwell has reportedly unleashed a private investigator on former staffers who could have knowledge of his alleged sex crimes — as one ex-aide teams up with the Manhattan District Attorney on its investigation of him. Swalwell’s hotshot attorney Sara Azari hired a professional snoop from New York firm Beau Dietl & Associates to question at least one former aide to the former congressman about their time in his office, NOTUS reported. The private eye reportedly told the ex-staffer she wanted to “get to the bottom” of what happened with Swalwell by speaking with his former colleagues and…

At 1 p.m. on a warm spring Thursday, a crowd spills onto the sidewalk at Melrose and Western in Los Angeles — long one of the city’s more commercially undesirable intersections, but today an epicenter of cool. Influencers and the casually affluent, purse dogs in tow, gather for strawberry cheesecake matcha lattes at Chainsaw, the Venezuelan pop-up-turned-bakery and cafe from Karla Subero Pittol that has quickly become one of the most popular — and viral — all-day hangs in Los Angeles. Steps from there, the design-forward Café Telegrama is packed with chattering groups — facing across to one of the neighborhood’s collection…
