That US journalists are shaming anyone online for not being sufficiently somber about the nerd prom while they’ve been silent about the actual assassination of hundreds of journalists is a bigger disgrace than the WHCD itself

BREAKING: room full of journalists waiting to be told what happened

oooh I'm the markets, I don't know how to count barrels of supply and also can't tell that elon musk has always been full of shit but you should organize your society around me anyway, uurgghh

I believe the things donald trump says and yet people continue to believe in my ability to efficiently price the probability of future outcomes, look at me, I'm the market

Tech industry really feels like a power keg ready to blow. The WSJ did a whole story about Oracle’s debt and how banks can’t resell it very easily because of the risk. Cursor acquisition isn’t really an acquisition yet. Deepseek 4 drops on a Thursday night. Jensen Huang slightly losing it too.

So, the guy who thinks that witches have taken over California is now the acting Secretary of the Navy? Super.

I don't watch TV so I had not seen this before. Really well done!

“AI is here, so we have no choice but to accept it” so are immigrants and trans people, but I guess that’s a skill issue

Read this analysis of Mythos' claims, it's hilarious that their entire claim is a total lie. Journalists credulously reported on their marketing hype, not the actual paper they released describing what they did, which was not: discovering thousands of original vulnerabilities.

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

I do think tech companies are underestimating the amount of - new account fatigue - new app fatigue - useless upgrade fatigue - terms of service fatigue

RFK Jr no longer disguising his MAHA movement for what it really is: eugenics

These are logical questions to also ask in 2026. When one nation is aggressively attacking several of its neighbours against the wishes of the international community, and in breach of several Geneva conventions and several UN resolutions, when is enough enough?

Did Nazi Germany have a right to exist after it mass murdered millions of people in concentration camps and gas chambers?

Did Nazi Germany have a right to defend itself when it invaded most of its neighbours and kept people from a specific religion in concentration camps?

Killing someone with paper work is violence and destroying corporate property is not

advertising technology in the 1990s: look at this “website” you can “surf”. it has an image of a cat on it advertising technology in the 2020s: you must adopt this now or die. we are going to completely kill you if you don’t download this app immediately

Excellent breakdown here⬇️

nonzero chance the FBI is plugging LLMs into wiretap data under the legal theory AI alone can’t implicate 4th amendment concerns (semi-known 702 issue). or the NSA has now hard coded wiretaps across all newly built US data centers due to expanded ECSP scope. or probably both.

Mmhmm

Being “bad” at art is good, actually! My favorite excerpt from my appearance with @emilymbender.bsky.social on the @404media.co podcast with @samleecole.bsky.social in the episode “The Marketing Tricks of ‘Artificial Intelligence’”.

Seems like my regino is one of the bad ones

Disappointing to see these three buying into the framing that the AI companies have esyablished, instead of questioning it's validity. That this grift is taking some of the generally skeptical minds on the left is really fucking annoying to me.

A young Chinese man from Sichuan, China, went to "Skid Row" in Los Angeles to feed homeless Americans. And guess what American cops did?! They showed up and arrested him! For feeding the homeless!! Land of the free, looool. Chinese dude's Douyin account: [小唐在美国](www.douyin.com/user/MS4wLjA...)

In the last several weeks I've seen people defend a transphobe, a rapist, a walking stroke waiting to happen and a man with an actual Nazi tattoo who uses slurs because they're Democrats. Even if the party wasn't currently running on fumes, it's supporters sure are.

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

People using the word "vance" like "kirk" "Damn dude you really vanced up your toilet, there's water kirking out all over the place. You should have hired a real plumber bro"

When people ask where the protestors are.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

The Democratic Party is fumbling an all-time opportunity to rebuke Trump and the entire GOP project of the past forty years and potentially reorient US politics, all so this wretched ghoul can do as horrendous a job running cover for Israel's criminal warmongering as he has done leading his party.

Ok I'm bored and want to procrastinate work so let's do a thread instead. Wanna hear a story? Alright then, story it is. So gather around, children, because now we're going to talk about the most important science book you've probably never heard of. Ready? Off we go, then.

Afeef and I reported on this crisis two weeks ago… it has only gotten exponentially worse theintercept.com/2026/03/22/b...

My friend who thinks about the past says now is the time to catch your breath. My friend who thinks about the future says now is the time to hold your breath. My friend who thinks about the present says at this time just be thankful you can still draw breath.

this is a country that pardons white reactionaries for storming the capital and murders Black children for holding toy guns

[if Chuck Schumer replaced Liam Neeson in Taken] CHUCK SCHUMER: [on phone] I don’t know who you are or what you want, but I will find you and I will help you kill my daughter

Make sure you hit up your senators on Grindr too

A ceasefire, if real, is a good thing, but it doesn’t change that Trump got us into a regional war, killed many people, got U.S. service members killed, threatened war crimes & genocide, jacked up costs & destabilized the global economy. Trump must be removed from office.

BREAKING: Trump announces two week window for Congress to remove him from office

"last time you guys were in power you did a genocide instead of actually prosecuting the pedophile, then you let him get back into power and fuck everything up. Then you wrote a strongly worded letter when he threatened to murder almost 100 million people. Fuck you."

NOW: B52 bombers are literally in the air on their way to Iran and hundreds of thousands of Iranians are in the streets waving flags and surrounding bridges & power plants. Difficult to imagine this has any precedent in modern warfare. (🎥 Al Jazeera)

It’s impossible to fully determine the role it’s played in this current horror, but the fact can’t be dismissed that a virus that causes damage to the frontal lobes—responsible for impulse control, risk assessment, decision making, etc.—has been allowed to run rampant for years now. #COVID

as I start up my computer to read the horrific news of the day and try to dissociate enough to work, the iTunes shuffle algorithm selected this remarkably relevant song from 1982 www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZeK...

"No," the swordmaster said. "One does not refuse the king," the herald said. "I do. I will not train his soldiers or officers, I will not tell my students to join his army, I will not support his unjust war." "You will regret this!" "No," the swordmaster said.

I feel like even the most foundationally talented comms person would know this isn't a great time for distraction rhetoric, but then again I'm not paid six+ figures to advise politicians

This is amazing

It’s looking more like there never was a rescue mission, it wasn’t even near the crash site, & as a mission to seize nuclear material, it was the most spectacular failure. No wonder Trump feels the need to be macho.

While Donald Trump wages illegal war and drags the world into a global energy crisis, @schumer.senate.gov has finally had enough and is stepping up to stand his ground! *checks notes* uhhh, against Chinese EVs

A glorious Easter to you and your house. Qapla'!

We are so, so small. #Artemis
