Would you look at that: March is a month of Sundays.

Prediction Markets like Kalshi and Polymarket are now worth more than $100 billion. They can be great for the little guy and even better for the inside trader. And everyone from sports leagues to the stock markets are on the take. Latest issue of Businessweek @bloomberg.com #polymarket #economy

This is the Mars Elon wants.

I find it weird that the First Lady who never met Epstein was interviewed about him but not the First Lady who dated him...

Final re-up on the joy of being a scientific advisor for amazing films and with wonderful actors - Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, Ryan Reynolds - and also working on a movie with Jared Leto 😬

I don't know why this is so hard. Fighters win—we see that over and over, because often it's *not* about their politics! Trump was perceived as a fighter!

The most effective way to reduce Trump as a foe is undermining his narrative as a tough guy... by fighting him.

OpenAI raises $110B in one of the largest private funding rounds in history | TechCrunch The new funding consists of a $50 billion investment from Amazon as well as $30 billion each from Nvidia and SoftBank, against a $730 billion valuation.

It's not a bubble.

But somehow, OpenAI has now raised around $160 BILLION in funding. To put that into context, that's about as much as all VC funding in the US in 2023, across every business.

‘You'll have to ask my husband:’ House Republicans say Hillary Clinton punted questions on Epstein The former secretary of State testified for roughly six hours, paving the way for Friday’s scheduled grilling of former President Bill Clinton.

When you just repeat the talking points it ain’t journalism www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

Three weeks ago I spent a few days in one of our global dark sky sanctuaries in Rakiura Stewart Island New Zealand. Never has deep time felt so real or so close.

But every now and then one of Elon's dumbfuck satellites would interrupt the eternal rhythms of the stars. Let's not let it get worse.

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

That’s a really beautiful photo.

Missed this chart from a couple of weeks ago. Further grist for the "🇺🇸 & 🇷🇺 are outliers, & the rest of the world doesn't really want either deglobalization or the end of international cooperation, & maybe we don't need totally new paradigms about world order just yet" mill.

I’ve just started watching and it’s awesome

I think @normative.bsky.social made this point yesterday, but once you get beyond the outrage of the brutality of the original “arrest” here, you also have to confront the fact that a D.A. CHOSE TO PROSECUTE THIS and a judge SENTENCED HIM TO A YEAR IN JAIL. Total system fail. WTF

As in “We’re two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year”?

Eat the rich. I know it’s unhealthy but trust me.

👇🎯💯 The unprecedented corruption is the point

They’re a fragmented company with scattered focus still recovering from their ill-advised crypto pivot and their stock is (was) off almost 80% from its peak. Yet, AI. Sure. Suuuuure.

Sure, 10x your productivity at work, but please don't carry that corporate mindset into your real life. It's ok to slow down and build meaningful relationships.

That’s a surprisingly good film.

Did you listen to the “Alan Parsons Project” as a kid? Kid = younger than adult.

I guarantee you I was more throughly edited regarding A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms than Jesse Singal was in publishing his latest exterminationist screed. Guaranteed

The Paranoid Style in American Oversight, Part I Senator Grassley’s account of how and why the FBI investigated Trump’s role in the false electors plot is a feat of political conspiracy.

"The piecemeal and nonchronological manner in which many of these documents have been released, and the lack of necessary context, distorts the narrative of how ARCTIC FROST began."
@michael-feinberg.bsky.social pushes back on Sen. Grassley's narrative of the FBI's probe into the fake electors plot.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

things that have rules, grammar and metrics are so much easier to make computational than all the messy, fuzzy stuff where I'll know it when I see it and this isn't it

Yes, by all means, yell at the Democrats. But everyone seems to find excuses why they must be the <only> people getting yelled at, & it’s exhausting. It makes everyone look deeply unserious about actually getting anything done.
