And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
Or driven to its knees
If you’re following over 2k people and you’re not someone I already know or someone I’m already following I’m going to assume you’re not adding me to your following list because of my insightful comments and, since this apparently needs saying, I am going to immediately block you.
Looks like Anthropic’s stock could price as low as $1.4 trillion. Not ideal to lose 30% of your expected valuation before your IPO. Maybe it’s because the company has $430 billion in non-cancellable contracts coming up just as your growth is slowing!

Tonight's movie: Coyote vs. Acme. Totally delightful! Now I'm picturing David Zaslav staring at it with complete Elizabeth Holmes/Who's On First? dead-eyed bafflement. That's low on his list of sins, but none should be forgotten.
Does - does he think a data center is like a shopping center? Does he think a person can just walk in and buy some data? “Hi, I’d like to purchase some of your finest data”
I don’t know what PAC is responsible for this anti-Hinson ad (winsenate apparently) but none of those people are Iowans and that is definitely NOT an Iowa accent.
It’s vastly underated that one of the main reasons the far right hate Zelenskyy so much is he stayed & fought for what he believes in while they go from posting like this to fleeing the country within 48 hours
BREAKING: In a blistering order, Judge Hinderaker details how the Trump admin only has done anything in the case of Ahmed Soliman when ordered to do so.
As such, he now orders DOJ to address each of the 11 steps he sees as being needed to bring Soliman back to the U.S.
So hard to pick a favorite part of this article.
Pretending that sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 was a “youthful indiscretion” is good, but don’t sleep on the argument that his wife forgave him for subjecting other women to unwanted nude photos so everyone else should too
These IPOs are a way to Hoover up more money now that they’ve run out of venture capital funds to share among each other and nothing I’ve seen since June has convinced me otherwise

If there is a Republican candidate you are considering voting for because he is an exception, a throwback to the good old days when Republicans were decent, honorable people, I assure you: no there isn't.
Who's running for U.S. House District 1? The Gazette sent questionnaires to candidates Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Christina Bohannan and Michael Bridgford. Read the responses from Bohannan and Bridgford. Miller-Meeks did not respond. 🧵
Reporter: Ms. Minaj! Ms. Minaj! This question is for the boys with the boomin' system. What is the President's physical condition at the moment?
Press Secretary Minaj: Well he ill, he real, he might gotta deal.
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke. He always in the air, but he never fly coach.
NEW: Nicki Minaj for press sec has a chance of actually happening, but the timeline is unclear.
However, the way my sources are talking about it gave me the impression that this is a genuine live ball. straightfromthehut.substack.com/p/nicki-mina...
a weird set of people who only exist online are people who celebrate the defeat of global fascism in every other country and are then horrified and appalled at the idea that they should also be expected to vote for their domestic opponent of global fascism if some of their stances are Problematic
Just drove my girlfriend to drop off her ballot. Dude hobbling in with a cane and a Vietnam veteran hat lost his mind yelling at the Dem volunteers outside. Big group of tough old ladies that did not give a single shit. The average MAGA freak is just fucking miserable and I’m glad.
If that Turek anti-trans ad had come out before I voted, I would not in good conscience have been able to vote for him. I'm actually kind of wishing I could take that particular vote back. Not that Hinson is any better on that issue, but it's not like she's worse either.
He launched his campaign by saying he wasn't 'that kind' of Democrat and yeah, he isn't much of a Democrat at all. If he wins, he'll easily be among the most conservative Senators.
a Republican president is campaigning in Mississippi tonight on the three pillars of principled conservatism: asses, high gas prices, and a meandering story about George Brett buying a watch in 1995
hunter s. thompson showed up at all of these places and would say "the parties are fancy and it is a mask for monsters" and these people can't stop praising the fine cheeses on offer
whether you're covering cornball orgies in dimes square or silicon valley, i read hunter s thompson i loved hunter s thompson and you sir are no hunter s thompson
Three moments broke Trump 2.0:
1) Kimmel and other attempted censorship after Charlie Kirk. Made public see the attack on speech.
2) Minnesota anti-ICE protests, Goode and Pretti killings. Made public see the attack on rights.
3) Iran war. Made public see bad foreign policy affects them directly.
I do think when historians look back the period the exact moment where it flipped and started going the other way won’t be anything any politician did but my Minneapolis neighbors weathering the worst of the regime in the streets, rallying together, fighting back, and winning
My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today.
Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
Remember, too, that a number of the DHS goons who've committed crimes -- Pretti's killers and the guy who shot Julio Sosa-Celis in MN, among others -- are Latinos from South Texas.
