Another day, another group of actual Republican Nazis exposed. “It wasn’t a couple of crazies. The popular sentiment was, ‘Yes, slavery should be legal,’” a former member of Nevada Republican congressional candidate Marty O’Donnell's Discord says. Lots of Hitler fandom as well:

In 2003, the U.S. military bombed Iraq’s national seed bank in Abu Ghraib, effectively eliminating hundreds of varieties of indigenous seeds adapted to growing in the drought-prone desert climate. A year later, U.S. law prohibited Iraqi farmers from seed saving. (First published in 2025 by Prism)

If they deserve to be impeached — and so many of them do — then the House should impeach them. Maybe the Senate won‘t convict but it’s still worth the effort to remind people that laws still exist and that Democrats still defend it. Also, as noted here, make ‘em sweat.

Holy shit I just saw a post about a company that is making washers and dryers with knobs and buttons. No screens, no shitzillion settings, no annoying little electronic song when it’s done. Could it be? They’re realizing we don’t need our laundry machines to post to Twitter or send faxes?

I’ll take “economy shrinks as productive workers are removed and replaced with dysfunctional systems that cannot do the tasks they’ve been pressed into, and newly unemployed people are forced to take shittier, less well-paid jobs further from their homes, so they can’t buy as much stuff”.

New from us: Anthropic just published scenarios for AI’s possible economic impacts, which range from minimal, to explosive GDP growth of 15% by 2030 as knowledge-worker unemployment hits 18%. I sat down with their co-founder Jack Clark to pick his brains on how they’re thinking about all of this.

That's absolutely wild - you're watching a $400+ million dollar fireworks show. Can't keep doing that forever. And just think of what Ukraine could do with $400m in interceptors.
