We’re in a bubble. When it pops it is going to be really ugly. Ilya Sutskever’s new company has no product and is raising $1 billion at a $30bn valuation. Mira Murati’s new company just announced a complete nothing burger. The longer this goes on the worse it will be.

This by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social is gripping, expertly laying out the evidence of Russian espionage and chemical warfare against Britain throughout the last decade.
The case against Boris Johnson and the Conservative Party is devastating, as it is against the security services for inaction.

It was only discovered because an officer “reported anomalous activity” on their account.

Conversations about social justice and conversations about the reality of white supremacist, patriarchal capitalism were so threatening to the wealth class that they spent unbelievable amounts of time using corporate organs of communication to undermine them while turning to fascism as the response.
