Donald Trump is mentally ill. Like my father, he was born with narcissistic personality disorder. He denies it but he remains agitated, untreated, unstable, and disturbed. Trump is not fit for the US presidency. music molecular biology art #NAFO

It's been clear to me that Trump's war in Iran will go on for years. He's going to hand it to the next president. Once he lost the Strait of Hormuz, the end became untenable. He's a narcissist, he's obsessed with optics and that would be a loss. So now it's a forever war.

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com

@saletan.bsky.social reacts to Trump saying that he’ll stay in Iran for 5-10 more years to make sure they don’t make a nuclear weapon: “That is a forever war…This election is your chance to send him and his party a message.”

The poster is correct I will note that Grampa Matt gets annoyed very easily these days

Dan Mauler 🎃@meelar.bsky.social

I just think Matt's wrong about this. We're at a point in our technological development where a ton of problems spill over national borders--if Flavio Bolsonaro burns down the Amazon, that will flood houses in Miami.

Not using AI makes me privileged in the same way that not paying a mechanic to change my oil is privileged. What a terrific take. Also: you think that paying a mechanic is a social ill (nope), but I assure you, it is the opposite (also nope).

dame@dame.is

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

My theory of these annoying Tech Bros is they're awkward Star Wars nerds and they LOVE this technical stuff as long as they don't have to learn anything about it or understand it i.e. they're recreating that special feeling they had seeing Star Wars and don't want to be actual adults or scientists

But isn't Microsoft a big AI company? I was told that AI would make everybody wealthy and happy. Is AI...taking people's jobs? Because that would be really bad. If that were the case Microsoft would probably try to keep it secret, maybe by offering tens of thousands of workers "buyouts."

Here’s a shocking video of Bolsonaro supporters throwing stones and bricks at Labour Party councilwoman Iara Pimentel (PT-Montes Claros) in Minas Gerais last night. One of many shocking displays of public violence by Flávio Bolsonaro supporters.

There is blatant voter suppression happening right now in Brazil: flights cancelled and buses suspended to Northeastern capitals where Lula holds the majority, polling stations changed to thousands of kms away last-minute, voters in London told they need to go to Edinburgh… This is criminal.

Musk is a disgusting liar

Lora Kolodny@lorak.bsky.social

Musk said he restricted Starlink in Ukraine- causing fast moving drones to lose connectivity - and that he had every right to do so because of some terms of service or contract that he didn't show us. (He didn't address suddenly doing this with no warning to Kyiv.) www.cnbc.com/2026/10/24/u...
