BAD COMPANY Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream

“Instead, what you get is a piece making the various more or less bovine noises of studious grey-lady impartiality, with the labor of anything resembling “appraisal” surgically excised.” 😆😂🤣 “more or less bovine noises” is going to be in my mind for a long time

The evolution of Kevin Roose, NYT tech columnist…. Feb 2023: “At one point, it declared, out of nowhere, that it loved me. It then tried to convince me that I was unhappy in my marriage, and that I should leave my wife and be with it instead.” Nov 2025: “…it was a good hug.”

Doc Rivers might literally be using Mad Libs for these lineups. Kuz, Myles, and Jericho Sims?? Sure.

In honor of the debut of the “Purple Rain” musical at State Theatre in Minneapolis, the Hennepin County Library System introduced a limited-edition Prince library card Friday.

Anyway, this piece is the near-culmination of two years of research, and I'd appreciate you subscribing to the premium. It is an exhaustive analysis of OpenAI's cash position, and while there are more questions than answers, I think it'll be eventually historic. www.wheresyoured.at/where-is-ope...

“Since 2018, labor columnist Kim Kelly brought the labor beat to teenage readers through her “No Class” column, covering everything from wildcat strikes to general strikes, the Gilded Age labor organizer Mother Jones to contemporary Amazon warehouse conditions.” 💔 thisislaborwise.com/teen-vogues-...

New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks. I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

Jobby job.

Bad AI supplanting human expertise is an issue that transcends any one field, but man—not many people on earth whose knowledge and dedication deserves respect like LIBRARIANS.

OMG just realized that AI can tell you to edit your Windows registry. What could go wrong?

Berlin Airlift but this time we’re doing it to ourselves. This used to be a real country.

(minneapolis voice) LORD I SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR NEW YORK

Once more, for old times’ sake

if democrats are serious about winning they need to learn from tonight and convert to islam

Here’s my list of good local Minneapolis news sources. Just ya know in case there is any news tonight. 🫣

A lot of people are focused on the mayoral race in the Big Apple, but they should also know that there’s a heated mayoral race in the Mini Apple that needs your posts and attention.

Wake up, Dick! I want you to see droves of New Yorkers voting in a Muslim socialist as mayor! Dick?

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Here’s a list of other sources you can use for news: @sahanjournal.bsky.social @bringmethenews.bsky.social @minnpost.bsky.social @minnesotareformer.com @mprnews.org @racketmn.com @wedge.live @bullycreative.bsky.social @dbrauer.net @taylordahlin.com

For 41 weeks now, I’ve been sitting down every Friday night to chronicle the damage this administration is doing to science & higher ed. We must stay focused. We’re in this for the long haul. We are finding ways not just to block them, but build something better. buttondown.com/liminalcreat...

I was always going to vote for @sorenwithward8.bsky.social but I appreciate the mailer from Josh bassais letting me know I’m also voting for a badass dude that looks like a superhero!

Change one letter, ruin a candy Skinnles

This bench unit from the bucks is hella ugly but the knicks seem to be checked out. I guess we let em run till they fall behind?

Wolves Twitter knows every word of this song

Kuz continues he journey to becoming Ben Simmons

How is it that NBA league pass has somehow gotten worse this year?!

FFS I thought “peacock” meant “NBC over the air for the oldies and streaming app for the kiddies” NBC choosing The Voice over NBA games is … a choice.

A short handed Sixers team (but I repeat myself) just put up a smooth 72 in the first half on the Magic. So the Magic defense is uh different this year?

Uh. Clippers fans? Maybe just let this slide 🤫 sports.yahoo.com/nba/breaking...

🏈 GB 32 - 19 PIT 5:28 4Q This game has a 20.14% chance of ending in Scorigami. Most likely Scorigami: 39-19 (9.44%)

Let’s do this!

Obviously it would be Florida

Tauren prince as the 8th or 9th guy for the Bucks feels right. I guess with Dame we had different needs last year but I just always felt icky about starting him.

Kuzma’s head shave makes him look like a haunted cancer patient. No bueno my dude.

ahem

I feel bad for Houston trying to figure out what to do with their new roster and OKC is just playing playoff level defense for the funsies.

Josh okogie gets minutes on the Rockets? Why???

who has written (or is working on) the deep dive into the powerful democratic polling firms of the 2000s and how they fucked everything up

KD is the best Poster in NBA history and it's not close. I hope he never, ever stops posting.

Getting rid of diversity initiatives is always a prelude to increasing nepotism and cronyism. I think we should all support DEI on moral grounds, but if you know someone that doesn’t share that value, you can tell them that DEI makes it MORE fair for white people without family connections.

Trader Joe's Exec1: we'll sell lots of really good stuff at good prices Exec2: that doesn't sound at all evil. We're a big company, we're supposed to be evil Founder1: we are going to have the most inadequate, cramped, badly designed parking lots in the fucking world Founder2: ok that works
