Well at least my Cassandra Syndrome is coming to an end.

my company did not lose $80bln so invest in free game assets?

seems like "on the orders of a nazi every major news outlet on the planet hounded an innocent man to death because he's black" should be one of the biggest stories of the year

Joined @stephruhle.bsky.social on MSNOW to talk about the AI bubble, its differences to the Dot-Com Bubble, and how if AI "doesn't work out" it's everyone's problem, with retail investors making up 20% of the market's volume and having over $4.65tn in direct exposure to AI stocks.

The defensiveness of AI boosters over calling this morally reprehensible is remarkable, they really do not like it when anyone has any kind of principles or when they care about something lol

Seen this story all day today. Every headline says "27 year old Minnesota man..." I have yet to see one with the headline that the man was Somalian. The most maligned and denigrated group in Minnesota www.goodmorningamerica.com/news/story/2...

Meta faces a $25 billion New Mexico penalty after years of multibillion-dollar settlements and fines over privacy and safety.

Doctors and nurses are voicing their objections. I-638 would require EVERY girl who wants to participate in sports to go through biological sex verification. That means expensive, invasive, and utterly gross examinations. Protect our kids and let them play. Vote NO on I-638

Democratic congresswoman Kathy Castor of FL-14 becomes the latest anti-transgender Democrat. When asked if she supports "biological males in girls sports," she cheerfully and forcefully says "THE ANSWER IS NO!" with a huge smile on her face, laughing. The number keeps growing.

Props to the ad agency: they nailed the "white person who plagiarises and steals credit using LLMs" look with 100% accuracy

Then do NOT give the fed a dime of our tax money. Strangle that fucking cockroach in the WH

On Friday, I'm recording a pod about *repowering*, ie, replacing solar panels & batteries that are nearing the end of their lives with new, more efficient ones. A new report claims it could unlock 67 GW of solar capacity and 92 GW of battery storage by 2040, with no new land needed! Got questions?

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Elon Musk threatens Congress.

wow -- a protester right behind Vance spikes his MAGA hat and start yelling at Vance before getting hauled out. Vance smears him for allegedly looking like he hasn't washed his hair.

Democrats have filed a lawsuit against President Trump and the Justice Department, alleging that the Trump administration is unlawfully interfering with the midterms by pressuring states to remove voters from their rolls.

PHP stands for Personal Home Page, because it lets me put my personal data on any server 🙂

getting thrown in the caps because I put "witch loving witch assigned mage at birth" in my bio

I think it's less that and more the fact that stuff actually went backwards on policing, the democratic party basically entirely abandoned any reformism and switched to tough on crime and talking about how police were the best heroes ever

Nuffield Trust finds that the NHS surcharge (at £1035/year + £776 for students + children) raises 60% more than the cost of the healthcare it covers, putting £2.5 billion into the NHS Rapid drops in immigration therefore hit the NHS finances www.nationalhealthexecutive.com/articles/ana...

I needed to keep quiet about this but this is what I was working on earlier this year. My publication “Harming Children: The Effects of the UK puberty-blocker ban” was evidence used for this! I had to submit a lengthy affidavit via NZ local trans group PATHA. Let’s hope we can overturn more now.

We won 3 Signal Awards, FYI! @coolzonemedia.bsky.social

In the first few weeks of October, three national pollsters asked three different questions about transgender issues, and all three landed in the same place from different angles: the anti-transgender ads this year may be backfiring on Republican strategists.

In case anybody needs social proof/thinks I'm exaggerating.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

I go to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas every year. I've seen flying cars there for the last five years at least. Obviously you can make a car fly. We make way more complicated shit fly daily. We don't make flying cars because have you been outside?

some of these people get so locked into a labyrinth of Rationalist thought experiments that they are no longer really capable of interacting with reality

For the first time this year, data centers have become targets for bombardment in global conflicts. Our analysis shows at least 27 such attacks in 2026. Experts worry the targeting of data centers opens a Pandora's box that cannot be closed. www.nbcnews.com/tech/securit...

among other things, this shooting really has me thinking back to Uvalde. a whole army of cops had each other's backs and were too scared to go after the shooter. versus one dad who heard shots and decided to act

Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke. P.S. they also hate democracy. As we hand them control of the country. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

How? HOW? HOW IS HE THIS FUCKING AWESOME? Also, I would love that little village! youtube.com/shorts/gIOD3...

Worried about Russian meddling in UK politics? Wait till you see what Israel is up to. Read my latest here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/worried-ab...

And just yesterday: Meta restricted Brazilian president's Insta accounts during the election while "recommending the profile of challenger Senator Flavio Bolsonaro." What's it going to take people to get off Meta products? www.reuters.com/world/americ...
