The last few days have really been an apocalypse in the original greek meaning: a great uncovering or revealing. I cannot think of anything quite like it since Edward Snowden. #epstein

Normies taking massive Ls across the board

I think @advaitarun.bsky.social just wrote a banger one. publicenterprise.org/report/bubbl...

Barnaby Joyce just went on television to congratulate the Liberals. That tells you all you need to know about the modern Liberal Party.

Hate to say it but Qanon was like webvan: an idea before its time but directionally right in a lot of ways.

excuse me what

Its getting really hard to imagine anything else tbh.

Lots of optimism today from the IEA on the future for oil and LNG growth. The US and Qatar are going to flood the global market with LNG in the next few years. We are told the market is thirsty for this energy. Meanwhile, back in the real world....

There is a fundamental disconnect between "this technology is superintelligence and so you need to follow its highly objective advice even if you don't like it" and "this technology repeats what its owner wants it to say, and its owner publicly admits to that".

More earnings, more “everything a bit tepid but AI 🚀”. Whats working in cyclicals and industrials is the same everywhere. #fintwit

That reminds me, hey, Donald and Mike, where are those Epstein files?

Konstanz slaps by the way. Lake life is *good*. Also am an investor in a company there so if you do photonics or solar and are being persecuted HMU.

The finances of Silicon Valley’s two largest AI startups show a diverging approach to the AI boom, with Anthropic on a pace to turn a profit far more quickly than rival OpenAI.

Amazing what truths you can speak from the safety of Tokyo

*TRUMP: ROLEX HAS BEEN VERY NICE *TRUMP: WORKING ON DEAL TO GET SWISS TARIFFS LOWER all they had to do was invite him to the US Open box ffs

If we ever get back to proper rule of law constitutionalism, the presidential pardon power needs to be curbed if not abrogated. Require senate supermajority approval, at minimum.

Great data on something we all intuitively know by now: Media and tech wants to stoke our anger and division for eyeballs, because it works. on.ft.com/4oU8V4S

It would cost $38 billion dollars to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies for another year and ensure Americans don’t lose their healthcare. The republicans said no. Trump sent $40 billion to Argentina and they didn’t object. Argentina first, America last.

Spanberger’s GOP foe spent 57% of her ad budget on anti-trans attacks. Spanberger focused on the economy. You see what won. trib.al/r9IRRmg The simple truth told time and time again in the polls: The public doesn’t care about trans issues. Voters care about the economy, inflation, & prices.

Not to well actually but in my opinion it is the concept and annihilation of time.

Dear Bob Iger: Please give me control of the Star Wars franchise. My concept is to just remake old war and samurai movies, but Star Wars. The Dirty Dozen but Star Wars. The Great Escape but Star Wars. Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman but Star Wars.

The last time NSW cops got more power over protests they beat the seven shades of shit out of Hannah Thomas. Every law you make to empower police against Nazis, will be used against environmentalists, unions and all social activists. This has always been the way www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.

Remember when Harris said she would go after price gouging companies and everyone yelled about communism? Fun times.

this should be one of defining images of his second term, because its impossible to tell from looking at it whether he is too indifferent to care or too senile to notice

we're primed to think of mad kings and Howard Hughes - remote paranoia, sophisticated, almost refined in their dementedness. But here no, it's the same common worms as the stupidest person you have ever met, and/or full base instincts "I want my waifu robot to say the n-word"

F*ck ICE. Prosecute them and their enablers. It's kidnapping. An administrative warrant is not a judicial warrant. It's blatantly unconstitutional. And these ICE derps don't even care for the administrative process, as shown by multiple deportations of people who had permission to be here.

A friend re the Australian Liberal-National Coalition still being a mess after two brutal election losses: “Thats the thing with getting hit in the head: sometimes you snap out of being an goose, sometimes you suffer permanent brain damage.” #auspol

Massive abdication of responsibility by the German political and corporate establishment -- didn't take a genius to know this was coming

Biggest losers from China's rise in manufacturing exports? Germany and Italy (the Northern part that is basically Switzerland+germany) Could we have known? Yes, it was obvious for years

First Daft Punk gig on the moon or whats the point

someone who’s good at markets, when do I pull everything out of stocks

Well, I’m sure looking to pre-book a government bailout will definitely help

“.. Markets think China won big. .. China has shown it can dump exports on the rest of the world, and use its leverage (from soybeans to rare earths) to deter the US. So it’s still safe to deal with China, and companies that do so look their most attractive in 14 years.” @johnauthers.bsky.social

🚨🚨 The UK has become too dependent on #Musk and his Space X company for the success of its space programme, and must urgently seek greater independence from it in order to stop the “politicisation” of these services , a new Parliamentary report has warned. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/04/t...
