Elon shoving all his failed shit into the SpaceX ahead of the IPO: X The Everything App, the Mechahitler CSAM Generator, and now tens of thousands of unsellable Cybertrucks Wall Street figures a bag of shit this big must be worth nearly $2 trillion

Ari Melber's show put together a supercut of an 8-minute Trump rant about snakes that raised concerns about his mental wellbeing

Here's the article which includes the actual interview in question. Yes, he absolutely said this and yes, it's in context. wordinblack.com/2025/02/rfk-...

It's amazing that the response of the Republican party and their leadership isn't "Maybe we should step back from arguing with the Pope about Jesus's teaching of peace" but instead "Jesus loved war actually."

This matches my recent experience in Arc Raiders, which has gotten much more friendly since launch. Last night a team literally offered to split their loot to help us. Marathon on the other hand is almost universally more competitive and unfriendly. I like both. www.theguardian.com/games/2026/a...

Now let's imagine that you wake up and every coin you have turns to gold bullion and each individual can use this newfound wealth to supercharge the economy. This is a possibility the Fed needs to seriously consider.

Iran cease-fire collapses: market rallies Double blockade of Hormuz: market rallies President shows signs of severe mental impairment: market rallies. Another bad economic report: market rallies I'm no market expert but the disconnect between the US stock market and reality seems to be widening.

Shame on DoorDash for participating in Trump’s “no taxes on tips” scam. Aside from their D.C. DoorDash “Grandma” being a GOP operative from Arkansas, it’s mathematically impossible for her to have saved $11,000 in taxes this year as a result of Trump’s bullshit bill.

Trump threatens to send JD Vance to Iran to campaign for the new Ayatollah.

Orban concedes defeat. The support of Trump, Vance, Putin, Lavrov, Weidel, Milei, Le Pen, Fico, Babis and many others could not overcome Hungarian anger at a stagnant, corrupt regime www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Reddit has been ordered to appear before a grand jury as the Trump admin tries to unmask anonymous online critics. “We should be very, very, very concerned that they’ve now taken one of these to a grand jury,” EFF’s @davidgreene.bsky.social told @theintercept.com. theintercept.com/2026/04/10/...

Oof. This one is almost too on the nose. I could actually imagine him saying this.

What if your local AWS environment ran inside Kubernetes? We just published a guide on running LocalStack on K8s for local development and testing. If you're already building in Kubernetes, this keeps your workflows consistent while still giving you fast, local feedback loops. bit.ly/4vk1c3Y

We’re living under a racist fascist kleptocracy and @nytimes.com is asking the hard hitting journalistic questions.

Trump went from making genocidal threats against Iran to becoming business partners with Iran in 24 hours. The guy is loonier than a shithouse rat.

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

NEW — Iran had already presented a 10-point plan. Then Trump wakes up today and threatens to blow up Iran's "whole civilization" if they don't bend. And then, just an hour before his deadline, he announces a ceasefire, citing Iran's "workable" 10-point plan.

So much wishcasting for a quick and easy way out of an entirely foreseeable disaster of our own making from the same press (speaking broadly) that played an outsized role in creating it. This isn't gonna happen and they know it (look at his cabinet, for crying out loud).

WTH are Agent skills? Not just prompts. They’re reusable workflows that AI agents can execute consistently without human input. We broke down what that actually means and why it matters blog.localstack.cloud/wth-are-ai-s...

Besides the horrifying cruelty and violence, once the US military crosses this line, is there any line left they won't cross? In for a dime, in for a dollar, as they say. He'll most certainly want them to "secure" the midterms next.

“.. The United States is unpredictable,” said Roderich Kiesewetter, a lawmaker from Germany’s ruling party, echoing a widespread sentiment in Europe. “It’s not a reliable partner anymore for the Western world.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/world/allies...

This is what happens when 77 million people take leave of their senses and put a manifestly unqualified, unfit, mentally ill narcissistic man-child in charge of the country and the world's most powerful. military. This is what happens when the media 'bothsides' election coverage.

Kind of amazing how we all now just assume that if Trump orders war crimes the military will just go along. I'm not saying that's an incorrect assumption...still shocking.

Here is my thread on Trump's budget request, which I'll update throughout the day. He calls to cut domestic discretionary funding to the lowest level in the modern era. Trump's budget reimagines Americans' relationship with our govt, and proposes a country that does less to help people get by.

BREAKING — Effort launches to remove Trump’s name from ALL federal property, monuments, and currency. UndoTrump.org

This case is so straightfoward it should have never made it this far. I hate to be alarmist, but it's scary enough on its own but starting down a path of "Who cares what the actual constitution says?" is extremely dangerous. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

Ah, yes, one cannot forget the grand military victory that was the celebrated in movies like Platoon, Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket.

dev.to/jenlooper/su... - I have some things to say on the topic. This is a call to interdisciplinarity and to bringing our whole selves to our work.

This is spot on. It's not just a problem in tech media, but it is pervasive in tech media coverage.

"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country — what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS

A part of enshittification that we don't seem to discuss enough is how software I pay for feels the need to constantly shove ads in my face to pay them more or benefit some revenue-generating partnership.

OH MY GOD STOP TRYING TO SAY X IS AN IMPORTANT PLATFORM ITS NOT ITS THE SIZE OF PINTEREST BUT IF I WAS LIKE 'DEMOCRATS GOTTA WIN THE COMMENTS WAR ON PINTEREST' THEYD LOCK ME FUCKING AWAY

America First = America forgone

You'll know we've met them once we decide what they are.

I love that he's decided to fully own the shitshow at our airports. Rs trying to deflect blame and he's here like, nope, we made this mess and it's great.

This is so easily provably false that printing this sentence last night (after Trump nixed a bipartisan deal to pay TSA) that printing it, nevermind sending it to all your subscribers feels intentional. @theatlantic.com I'd love one day to pass where I'm not forced to question why I still subscribe.

When the global financial paper of record says the market is fake and being manipulated by the President you just know we are entering the Cool Zone

Someone or someones made $580,000,000 in exquisitely well-timed oil trades that took place 15 minutes before Trump's dubiously optimistic post about the negotiations with Iran. Gift link ⤵️ giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Let's be clear, now that the SAVE act appears to be doomed, our anti-democratic SC is very likely to seize the opportunity to rig the election.

less than three months out from the World Cup, Trump touts the presence of ICE agents at airports and says they're "very fertile territory" for arresting foreigners

Punchbowl confirms what I suspected in a post last night. Thune reached a deal with Dems to fund DHS except for ICE and Trump rejected it. DONALD TRUMP is to blame for airport chaos - not Democrats.

Comparing the Democrats to a country he’s bombing. This is authoritarian demagoguery. If a Republican doesn’t denounce this, s/he is enabling it.

If there is one thing I’ve learned is that if a project is struggling, adding a bunch of new trainees always helps, especially if they’re being paid and you’re not, and they’re the reason you’re not being paid

So true.
