not saying this to let anyone off the hook for harassment: this isnt a problem unique to any part of the political spectrum. groypers dox other republicans over on X and plenty of libs, centrists, etc engage in dogpiling, crybullying, etc. you can't internally discipline the people in your phone

trump sobbing as they force him into the sensory deprivation tank with stephen miller to turn him back evil

Of COURSE on any day that any person is expressing any excitement about any Democrat politician, the party must take action to put a damper on it What on Earth is the point of a resolution "condemning socialism"? Other than the clear fact that the core party simply prefers fascism to socialism?

The whole-wheat croissant at Seylou is astonishing. I love to see the focus on different grains and growing techniques. But this is NOT a climate solution. It's luxury products for rich people, using low-yielding grains. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solu...

This but for the actual best water of my childhood

Yeah it's too bad that you're not allowed to fire anyone for anything less than a criminal act

Loving this Larry Summers arc where he’s like, wow taking a step back from leadership now that I found out about my own behavior which I have had access to at all times

i think that people who use headphones in public places like trains are selfish. keeping all your cool music and podcasts to yourself is genuinely sociopathic and deranged behavior. play it on your phone's speaker and let everyone enjoy it, or don't play it at all

Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface by Brian De Palma (1983)

This honestly sounds pretty dope

(has ownership of a sandbox version of earth where my wildest dreams come true) kamala harris is president and healthcare and food are still reserved for those with money

this sounds like a great idea. luckily there are no extremely serious consequences to providing false information to the Internal Revenue Service

Ambivalent about saying more on the Nuzzi shit as it makes me incandescently angry but while it's fun to read all the salacious stuff we have a crisis of confidence in journalism and it's insane that one person can not only do so much damage but then *still* be hired and promoted by the industry

What's this i keep hearing about capitalism being the best system to allocate resources efficiently?

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

hello do you speak fluent Bulgarian or know somebody who does? I could use your help. This is an earnest request

Every time I see "wegovy" I assume it's an NGO or maybe a polling firm

BLS does amazing work for the American people, creating huge value. They show up for us. We have to show up for them. If you care about working families, employers, and jobs, join Friends of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. www.friendsofbls.org/join

If you're a state running a garage sale for anything other than your own literal Crown Jewels to pay for regular government expenses, you're doing Nation wrong

Probably fewer women in economics because they’re just not as smart, right, Larry?

It is truly wild how much this piece (from the Economist!) generalizes to "employers" doing something based on a very small, very focused paper about a specific freelance website It seems very silly to uncritically correlate hiring behaviors on one (1) freelancer website to all full-time, W2 hiring

The Democrats' election plan, as always, is to point at the Bad Man and say he's bad. But this is the time to talk about how this oligarchic political and economic system allowed this kind of person to take power in the first place, and how it should be changed. No appetite for that

This is basically the biggest thing I have changed my mind on in adult life. Having been raised in a Land Of Plenty soc dem, I was convinced of the 'insane subsidy to the rich' case for means testing until I came over here, saw the alternative, and I am now an Universal Coverage absolutist

Today's new @publicenterprise.bsky.social report is a comprehensive analysis of the capital structure of the entire AI sector: data center real estate, GPU markets, private credit, you name it. It's also a financial risk management framework for policymakers! publicenterprise.org/report/bubbl...

If you have a book lover in your life, Woodworking by Emily St. James would make a wonderful holiday gift. The hardcover edition is quite handsome. There are desks on the cover! bookshop.org/p/books/wood...

It's time for the monthly AMA -- send me your questions, it's my favorite post of the month.

Tell me you don’t understand risk pools without telling me you don’t understand risk pools

Kathy Hochul is a Democrat, right? She could be quietly working with a member of her own party to get a better deal for their constituents - even if "free" is somehow impossible, many other things are possible! - and she's going with "loud opposition" instead? zeteo.com/p/democrats-...

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

man who is gonna run the headline thats "Fight Or Flights?"

The fact that Progressives still say stuff like this in 2025 - regarding the 50mil+ Black people in America as a monolith of magical wise sages - is one of the bigger indictments of DEI and identity politics as practiced over the past decade This isn't liberatory, it's condescending as hell

Water? You mean ice lava?

ice cubes are ridiculous. like yeah lemme just get a piece of water

for some reason i find local LLMs kind of charming in a way the mass consumer stuff is not. you built a mini-cluster out of raspberry pis that takes 37 minutes to generate a 3 second clip of video that sucks? i don't see the point but that's classic computer dork shit, have fun pal

I think the dumbest thing about this position - and I certainly don't want to shortchange all the other ways it's dumb - is the supposition that the approach implied here would cause people to buy healthcare directly, rather than using it to buy (less) insurance. Healthcare costs too much for that!

I can’t believe Zohran is transing the trains already www.mta.info/article/f-m-...

apropos james watson’s death i had an idle thought today about how stupid race/iq stuff sounds. “buh if your skin is darker you are biologically less smart” is a thing only a dumbass can believe

One of the worst American instincts (and I do think it is American) is to see people getting "free" stuff and, instead of thinking "maybe everyone can get better, including myself" they think "fuck them, no one should get anything"

Nancy Pelosi secretly being queen of the stock market and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez vocally opposing elected officials profiting off the stock market feel like intrinsically connected facts that quietly explain their instant bad blood the minute they became House colleagues

we can chalk it up to youth and inexperience but the biggest mistake the mamdani campaign made was winning by 8.8% and not 1.5%, which is the margin needed for the media to say it’s a total mandate

Took the cats out for a walk with my brother and accidentally created a 90s Britpop album cover

The Dems complaining about how Zohran promises too much really give themselves away. Legislators will *always* deliver less than they promise. You have lofty ideals, and then you compromise. You iterate and build toward long-term goals. 1/2

Must read thread from Katie, with new analysis from her and the nutrition team at @centeronbudget.bsky.social

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

'Our primary focus is on winning and therefore it's a real problem that someone we don't like is winning'
