Space X had revenues of $18.7 billion last year and lost $4.9 billion, and yet Musk and his bankers are touting an IPO valuation of $1.5 trillion. This seems beyond absurd, but what do I know, I’m just an economist. Now if I was a bullshitter…. www.wsj.com/business/spa...

Always in Melbourne’s West hey. The idea that this is a ‘job creator’, per the premier, is so fkn stupid. Imagine the solar farm you could fit on this site. But no, apparently they are too much of an eyesore. This noisy, water guzzling, job sucking ugly af horror show on the other hand. Just fine.

I am sharif Ahmed is suffering greatly. His condition is worsening because I can't afford his surgery; I keep postponing it. Every post I ignore means an extra hour of pain. Please donate; your help could save his life.🥺 bit.ly/4auK43q

Circle Jerks’ lead singer read the riot act to a couple of fans who objected to lyrics, despite having purchased tickets to the show🇺🇸

At this point, even if the agreement were signed today, the Strait would not fully open until the end of June at the earliest. The coming supply shock and ensuing demand destruction cannot be fully avoided anymore.

Raging fire burned millions of his bees. But what comes next really worries him

Another endorsement of the Handbook on Authoritarianism in the Arab World, available open access July 2026 Neil Ketchley's review:

History occurred six years ago tonight when the community overran the Minneapolis Police's 3rd Precinct and set it aflame, marking May 28 as a day of popular revolt against anti-Blackness and police terror. See our mini-doc from the night of May 28, 2020. Watch the feature-length doc at our website.

Very good.

Michigan residents filed the first class-action lawsuit in the US over data center noise destroying their home values. From noise to water use to pollution, nobody wants data centers yet the government is calling us “extremists” for opposing them. It’s backfiring spectacularly!

Question put on Irish tv tonight: After two and a half years of watching them do the worst imaginable, how is it anyway controversial to say maybe let's not play Israel?

Mamdani: "Govt efficiency — these are words that somehow have been understood as if they are R priorities, when in fact they're priorities of anyone who believes in the public sector. Any yet, Elon Musk used it to cut as many jobs that were as critical as possible for so many of the neediest people"

Wow. So let me get this straight - they steal the data, they steal the jobs, and we also have to pay hundreds more in household bills. So we just have this mass-thieves leaching on the economy, with essentially no actual use. And it's chill? It's normal? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I'm writing poems because donations have completely ceased across all 17 campaigns I host. This post I'm typing will get more reach than posts for human lives.

How did I only just discover that Don Jr is marrying the daughter of a prominent Epstein enabler? Her late dad, a banker, wrote Epstein a reference letter calling him "a gentleman of the highest integrity" to help get him tax breaks &… his island. Can’t make this stuff up.

And there you have it. The anti trans campaign in Maine was never some "grassroots movement." It was bankrolled by billionaire Richard Uihlein, who poured over $800,000 into targeting trans kids over sports and bathrooms.

“An Associated Press investigation found that at least 10 detainees, all men, have died by suicide since President Donald Trump took office in January 2025, a pace that far exceeds the growth in the detainee population”

And who would you rather have barbecue with: Talarico or the creeper who encouraged other creeps to take pics of people inside women’s restrooms (illegal) & upload them to a website he created? Paxton literally did that. TX, let’s divorce him “on Biblical grounds” & put Talarico in the Senate!

A family in Idaho has dropped their lawsuit challenging a state law barring transgender students from using the restroom after their 16-year-old trans daughter died by suicide. Idaho AG Raul Labrador praised the decision without mentioning the girl's death or why the case was dismissed.

The US government was legally required to release the remaining Epstein files 168 days ago. They still have not done so.

Imagine that

they’re shooting crowd control munitions at crowds that include multiple members of congress, the governor, and a sitting united states senator. they fired pepper balls at the senator. they cannot and will not be reigned in by democracy, whatever’s left of it.

There's so much data showing that military recruiters disproportionately target underprivileged communities. These are the same people who are sent to fight in these billionaire wars, but recruiters hate the term poverty draft.

George Floyd should be alive today. On the anniversary of his murder, our hearts break for his family and community. Nothing will bring George Floyd back to his loved ones – to his little girl, Gianna. But there is work left for all of us to do.

A masked man in an armored vehicle, dressed as if he is in the middle of a war zone, training a weapon on unarmed protestors. This is simply incompatible with democratic expression.

NJ Senator @andykimnj.bsky.social pepper sprayed at Newark ICE detention center, which is owned by for-profit corrections company GEO Group. Feel like this should be a big thing. www.nj.com/news/2026/05...

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

Just the facts

SpaceX rocket explodes in the Indian Ocean today, and Musk calls it successful… One minuscule small step for mankind, another giant leap of Musk’s wealth and his assault on oceanic life.

Jeremy Corbyn has put pressure on Andy Burnham to commit to an independent public inquiry on Gaza - your move, Burnham

“Project 2029 is only the latest example of a lobby group funded by dark money putting out rightwing talking points under the guise of education. It’s time for the Charity Commission to stamp out partisan propaganda outfits abusing their status as charities.” https://goodlaw.social/hgtk

I quite like this kind of moxie.

The last boat of the 2026 Gaza Freedom Flotilla has been seized in international waters and its crew detained by Israeli forces. Unarmed civilians sailed to break the siege on Gaza and bring global attention to the genocide. The world cannot stay silent. Free the flotilla activists. Free Palestine.
