Absolute beast of a newsletter today: The war of the Musk-Trump morons, a story of scientific progress, and a love letter to Nintendo. All yours for the grand total of fuck-all English pennies iandunt.substack.com/p/musk-vs-tr...

I wrote about the risks of a "sudden stop" if investors lose faith in America. The bond market is amplifying those risks minute by minute as yields shoot higher after the budget monstrosity paulkrugman.substack.com/p/gaming-out...
