Illustration: The Verge Right now, text highlighting is broken for anyone using recent Chromium-based browsers on some websites. The cause appears to be a change to selection styling that doesn’t play nicely with Tailwind CSS. We’ve noticed it on our site, and so have several people posting about the issue in threads on Github and Chromium. For affected sites, you may still be able to select, copy, and paste text on websites but there’s no visual indicator that you did so. Or you may not be able to copy and paste text at all or have other unexpected behaviors when you try to select specific text.

Josh Brolin had a chat with The Times while promoting his new memoir, From Under the Truck, where he wrote about his childhood and dealing with his wildlife conservationist mother, Jane Cameron Agee. The book is set to be released on Tuesday, November 19, and is reportedly priced between $25 and $45 for varying formats. Josh got the memoir’s title from an inspiration on a drunken night with his mother’s boyfriend, who passed out under a vehicle. Jane was also an alcoholic and would take Josh and his brother with her to bars as they watched her flirt with cowboys and truckers. Josh Brolin’s mom made wild animals chase him down James Brolin (left) and wife Jane Cameron Agee/Everett Josh’s mother used to keep reduced bobcats, cougars, coyotes, wolves, and mountain lions on their ranch and would sometimes yell at them to chase Josh and his brother Jess. He wrote that the chase sometimes ended in bloody injuries on days when they did not get to the door quickly enough. At 8, Josh was required to be up at the crack of dawn to do farm chores like cleaning cages, birthing foals, and feeding the animals on the Paso Robles ranch. They later moved to Santa Barbara, where he befriended other kids he described as neglected drug addicts– just like himself. DUNE, Josh Brolin/Everett Josh Brolin admired his mother regardless of her vices Josh’s tumultuous childhood took a different turn after his parents divorced, and he went to live with his father in Los Angeles.
