I used to focus on left versus right. Now I’m much more worried about the money at the top. But while it might seem strange to say it, I think this is a hopeful way of looking at the world that opens the door to coalitions that seemed impossible before. My first for the @newrepublic.com:
Beatings every 30 minutes. Beating genitals. Forcing men to drink filthy bath and toilet water. This is the report that Paramount/Skydance pulled down as part of its campaign to curry favor with the President for its bid to buy Warner Brothers. I'll discuss on @theweeknightmsnbc.bsky.social tonight.

You work at a call center. You just finished call #17. It was rough. The AI silently analyzing your voice detects frustration. But it doesn’t give you a break. It keeps you at your desk and makes you watch this video. “Breathe in. Imagine you’re swimming beside a sea turtle.”

I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

I have been reliably informed that recording a voice note is "creepy." So. If you have a question about surveillance at work, you can now

And then there’s the story about Alex Karp’s not-at-all-weird interview (for lack of a better word) with Oswald Mosley’s grandson for a senior position at Palantir.

I’m not sure how often you get the chance to get your questions about messed up tracking at work answered, live, by a former top lawyer for the NLRB, a former Iowa AAG, and a former FTC commissioner (yours truly) but this would be a chance. Also, anonymous questions are welcome
Remember Car Talk, where you call two guys with your car problems and get advice to fix it? Me and Max Miller are starting a show that's like a "Car Talk" for the messed up economy.

So, there’s no matching Click and Clack. But Max wears suspenders and dreams of suing oligarchs (and has actually sued pretty much every oligarch), and I’m a tired dad with an incontinent French bulldog who has also sued said oligarchs so
I really hope this manages to be as hilarious as Car Talk, a show that was so funny that people who didn’t even care about cars listened to it
