Bold strategy going with telling the truth
Interesting approach by Mike Rogers to make his loyalty to Elon Musk & the oligarchy an explicit part of his campaign earlier this year. “When you stand with my Senate campaign today, you are directly shielding Elon Musk,” Rogers wrote. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...

Check out how easy this is.
Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

calling trump “incompetent” alone would’ve been enough to trigger him, but “he’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory” is what will truly send him over the edge (gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/u...)

Case # 9,001,891 of Elon is a lying, fucking asshole
“Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even tho he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — @parismarx.com And he’s kept getting SO MUCH worse since then.

Just finished this, very enjoyable listening to Jamelle talk about media, what he consumes, how he thinks about his written and social media (primarily video) pieces. Etc

I think in Michigan Stevens would have had a more difficult hill to climb: less outside spending, no populist support, no youth support, uninspiring candidate all around
Ludicrous framing here from @nytimes.com. No serious Dems ever thought these would be slam dunks. And it's premature to let a centrist group get in a self-interested shot like this before we even know if these candidates will actually fare worse in the elections than other ones. Indefensible.

"Thiel’s destruction of Gawker, a publication that attacked virtually everyone, was the first shot fired in this era’s remarkably successful war against the free press. The war itself is not new. It’s just that today’s iteration of it is so very on the nose." www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/the-free-a...

sent this to everyone.
This is an excellent article by Leif Wetherby - why AI is a cultural technology not a collection of human-like agents (citing our work on this). And why the anthropomorphism is a distraction from the very real risks and dangers and the way to deal with them. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/o...

They don’t vote for these things in the booth though. If they did we’d all be in a different situation bsky.app/profile/matt...
Latest WSJ poll: "63% want to pause AI development 61% want a billionaire wealth tax 59% want Medicare for All 57% want a $20 minimum wage 58% want to end U.S. military aid to Israel" This is the center of the country politically. it is time all adjust to this political spectrum, esp. media.
Fully agree. E-bikes for youth can be a great thing for them to be able to be more self sufficient in an increasingly car/vehicle based world.
This is a somewhat hot take but I agree with this article overall. We need to be having a more serious conversation about what micro mobility offers and how to build that up than just slamming it all as a menace or looking to restrict and ban it.

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

Today, @wired.com is publishing Choke Points, an 18-month investigation into how Israel’s network of checkpoints, gates, and roadblocks is reshaping daily life for Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. A thread on the reporting, and what we found:
