insane.

Some of us have been teaching your work to the exclusion of theirs for years.

All the nopes.

I mean, without a Congressional vote on a resolution authorizing force, it's hard to point fingers.

Just some casual missile gap chat at the coffee shop this morning like it's 1982.

Iranians came together to bid a final farewell to 168 young girls, aged 7 to 12, who were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike targeting their elementary school.

"AI layoffs" like Block's are a race to the bottom that have nothing to do with productivity. You won't be replaced by AI, nor a person using AI, because backfills aren't real.

Jack Dorsey is copying the 2023 leadership framework:
- overhire
- lay everyone off
- pretend it's because of AI productivity gains
- stock go up

The layoff victims were some of the most productive, AI-pilled people in the company, but it didn't save them, because that's not what it was about.

In Plunging Into a Mideast Conflict, Trump Gambles His Presidency

To call something a gamble implies something you can win or or at least come out ahead of where you started - but there is no such scenario here because the war has no coherent objective. Even Trump barely pretends to know what the point is.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

This is so completely unhinged.

Nothing to see here folks everything is totes normal

Hilarious that we have a giant body of electeds called Congress. You'd really never even know it.

Genuinely incredible that the U.S. will celebrate the 250th without an Archivist of the United States.

Gotta admit, feels not so great to just keep paying taxes to the "science bad, child murder good" government

NEW: More evidence that those who tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election are working with Trump administration officials to set the rules for the 2026 midterms. @dougbockclark.bsky.social

This is what state censorship looks like:

The end point of VC capitalism is universal surveillance. The endpoint of universal surveillance is labor & social control systems by people with the most money. The endpoint of that is fascism. Ben Thompson, like a16z, was always on this path... for anyone with eyes & critical view of capitalism

surrealist international relations theory

With Iran War, Kalshi and Polymarket Bet That the Depravity Economy Has No Bottom Gambling markets have conveniently found a stance that allows them to continue to profit from death and war.

prediction markets' depravity economy is the culmination of deregulation and kleptocracy, lobbying to legalize sports gambling, the collapse of advertising markets, hustlebro culture, crypto, memestocks, ai bubble ... venn diagram of horrible:

Idaho considers an 'apocalyptic' choice for disabled people and families Difficult budget decisions in a number of states are threatening vital programs for disabled people at home and caregivers in the workforce.

Idaho's proposal to essentially end home care is the first sign that last year's tax cut bill could be disastrous for people with disabilities in the U.S.

I'm long separated from my limited experience here, but shooting down 3 friendly F-15s sounds like more than a deconfliction/comms problem, it sounds like an autonomous air-defense systems problem. Good thing we're not, say, recklessly rushing to replace more humans with AI in lethal decision loops

for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc

I genuinely cannot get over him launching a war from his house in Palm Beach.

Cervical cancer rates higher in states with low HPV vaccination rates

RFK Jr *lies* when he says cervical cancer risk is increased in women who get the HPV vaccine.

New study: "States with high vaccination rates have seen the biggest drop in cervical cancer, while states with low vaccination rates have had little to no progress"

it’s wild how everyone hates Fetterman (correctly) and there’s a guy running who’s basically holding a huge I’m The Next Fetterman sign and it hasn’t slowed him down at all

we're gonna find out graham platner's middle name is "adolf" and he's gonna be like haha oh yeah I've been meaning to change that, just found out recently about that other adolf

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).
