The Wall Street Journal just illustrated the core argument of my book: a system rigged to reward capital over labor is one in which even full-time work no longer secures the most basic material needs. This is the economic order that produces the "working homeless." www.wsj.com/economy/jobs...

It's insane to expect a banker and private equity senior executive to negotiate an agreement with the US that protects the interests of the working class

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

OpenAI promises new safeguards to prevent suicide-related lawsuits

Bad Bunny delivered a historic performance at the Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, for the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show that brought Puerto Rican culture and history to the fore.

In the Super Bowl halftime show, Bad Bunny performed El Apagon tonight. Very meaningful that he did.

What a moment.

This is such a kind and artful thing to do. Fuck ICE.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Yo did he say Canada!? - Every Canadian right now

Bad Bunny The only thing more powerful than hate is love.

WOKE 2 IS HERE

el apagon x cafe con ron is a hard mix

Maybe I'm biased, but this one-of-a-kind visual guide brought to life by @wencyleung.bsky.social and Michael DeForge might be the most entertaining thing you read this weekend. Don't miss it:

Harper-Carney’s Job Cuts Undermine Canada’s Position Against Trump Austerity undermines the foundation for a fairer economy that is less dependent on the United States. www.readthemaple.com/carneys-job-...

The provincial government has placed the PDSB under supervision again, stating they've run deficits for the last 5 years. While funding choices are made by the boards and trustees, funding itself comes from the province, with the Ministry having previously supervised Peel from 2020-2023. #ontario

Two things I’m not sure is widely understood: 1. Many public servants no longer have their own desks and work in transient government co-working spaces 2. Many describe a Kafkaesque existence of going to physical offices only to spend their time on video calls with the people sitting next to them

Thank God it's a lot faster than Finch. It is like 7:00 a.m. on a Sunday but this feels properly quick. I'm happy.

The Eglinton Crosstown LRT will open today after 15 years of construction

The government is giving a loan to a Crown corporation that should just be a public service that we pay for because it provides an essential task that Canadians depend on. We don’t provide loans to the health care system or schools; we just pay for them.

And yet the Ford government will take over multiple school boards on the premise that they have mismanaged their finances.

This is really an instance of a very longstanding trend where secular pundits end up unwittingly aligned with fundamentalists in treating the crudest and most extreme version of any faith as the genuine article and everything else as somehow inauthentic.

for better or worse, people will forget about that video by the end of the year, if not end of the month. but when trump finally kicks the bucket, there were be orgasmic celebrations across the US & around the world. he will be remembered as the most despised US president since WWII for generations

Woke 2 is firing on all cylinders and ahead of schedule, I didn't have "the president has to retract his nakedly racist social media posts" on the calendar until july

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

To understand what's going down at WaPo, this information is essential. The tech bros brought Trump to power, and the are exploiting their hold on the administration to accumulate wealth in an obscene fashion. The last thing they want is a newspaper running exposés that mess things up.

The guy who owns Amazon shutting down the books section of the Washington Post is beyond parody

In what may be the first domino falling from the Epstein files.

Liam Ramos and this 2 year old Minnesota girl were two of the *3,800* children the Trump administration has arrested and detained since January of 2025 Some of those kids have been in detention for 6 months or longer Corey Lewandowski can rot in hell right alongside his girlfriend Kristi Noem

This is important. As humans, we like the idea of masterminds and grand schemes. Because it means we can solve societal problems just by defeating the big boss. But in reality, such problems can only be solved by uprooting systems--like financial capitalism--that create bad actors as externalities.

Fun thing about carrying your passport on you at all times... You are just one mugging away from having your life turned upside down.

Man who oversaw the largest breach of civil rights in Canadian history rewarded by Liberals yet again.

Bad Bunny won a Grammy, a well deserved standing ovation, and the hearts of many tonight. "We are not savage, we are not animals, we are not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans.” Bravo, Bad Bunny 🤩

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible
