Line of the year in the new edition of The Economist: "Although President Donald Trump says he has “destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military Capability”, the 0% that remains is playing havoc with the global economy..."

All respect, Timothée, art is about more than popularity—If Chalamet wants to make movies that millions go to see, that’s fair enough, and I hope he continues to do so. But, all respect to him, though… www.ft.com/content/7b5f... @jemima.bsky.social @financialtimes.com

Just wonderful to see our two of our most credAble politicians bringing some "institutional credability" to bitcoin

Words, what do they mean

Yes banking is a Ponzi scheme where "if you didn't have those connections you didn't get that benefit" whereas of course "crypto totally democratises". That's why the Trump family's nonsense crypto firm is 49% owned by a member of the UAE's ruling royal family. Lololololol // 😱😱😱😱😱

Belatedly sharing this week's column as.ft.com/r/ebe65772-d... (🎁)

"the city of love is long gone, replaced with aggressive drug dealing invaders" A unique moment of self-knowledge for convicted felon and pint-sized racist hate-goblin Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

Feeling the urge to bring to this platform two important recent X messages from two of the West's most serious and thoughtful defenders. Particularly struck by Tommy Robinson's observation that "the city of love is long gone"

In the most important news today, @nigella.bsky.social is joining @ftweekend.com as a food and drink columnist! She joins @harrietfl.ft.com's shock and awe roster of @marinaoloughlin.bsky.social @jayrayner1.bsky.social, Tim Hayward and Jancis Robinson aboutus.ft.com/press_releas...

Belief in bitcoin is starting to ebb, argues Jemima Kelly, as the supply of “greater fools” on which it relies dries up. Read @jemima.bsky.social's column in today's #FTEdit 👉 Bitcoin is still about $70,000 too high ft.trib.al/R6qGNRT Then take today's #FTEdit poll 🗳️ ft.trib.al/hn4X7a9

1/ The formidable @jemima.bsky.social of @financialtimes.com reminds us again, in her inimitable fashion, that the ultimate price of Bitcoin is ... zero.

I often think of how my entire start into journalism is thanks to Jemima throwing one of my articles into the FT Alphaville Further Reading section in 2019. It was life altering. I’m glad she’s still writing stuff like this because the coiners get so mad about it on Twitter.

Would be sharing this anyway, but if you can kick off an anti-crypto column by quoting one of my favorite movies, you have me in your palm.

"This week has shown us that the supply of “greater fools” that #bitcoin relies on is drying up." Great piece by @jemima.bsky.social with reference to La Haine ❤️

Wrote about bitcoin again 🤡 as.ft.com/r/4bb4dac3-c...

Does Melania Trump succeed in her latest ambitious undertaking? Jemima Kelly went to watch the US first lady's new documentary and find out ... Read @jemima.bsky.social's review on #FTEdit ft.trib.al/LRKYy4f Then take today's #FTEdit poll ft.trib.al/1XUyXAE

For anyone having a bad day: have you seen the bitcoin price?

Spent my Friday night with Melania for @ftweekend.com and I wanted to love it 💔 as.ft.com/r/cd009ac3-c...

the problem with this newfound “bursary” argument aired in the Times is this: twhen we first heard about these payments in September a person close to Mandelson said it couldn’t possibly be the case and, er, threatened to sue us

🚨HOLY SHIT: Joe Rogan slams Trump’s ICE raids: “You don't want militarized people in the streets snatching up people…U.S. citizens (without) papers on them. Are we really gonna be the Gestapo? 'Where's your papers?’ Is that what we've come to?”

If you aren't angry, you aren't paying attention. A woman was murdered by ICE in Minneapolis today. This should outrage us all. ICE out of our cities now. youtube.com/shorts/ecsmn...

Out today - 16% of public feel a profound sense of awe or wonder at the universe or nature DAILY, 12% say they NEVER feel that, with an even spread across range between. One of my favourite qs of year - don't often get sense of how different our mental models are www.kcl.ac.uk/news/one-in-...

Jamie Lee Curtis wraps her Christmas presents in pages of the FT tied with tartan ribbon. Why does she make this superb style choice? Why because Martha Stewart told her to of course! Find a more iconic sentence in a newspaper today. I DARE YOU. as.ft.com/r/8f38ca55-1...
