@pkrugman.bsky.social I love your newsletter, but please stop hosting it on Substack. Their "neutral" stance on Nazis leaves a horrible taste in my mouth.

I listened to Jon Stewart interview Michael Lewis about his new book the other day.

In the book, it extolls the amazing government workers who are currently demonized by the right wing media. It's yet another reason to be angry about DOGE and the cuts.

Wait.
Just found out that the CEO of Gumroad now works at DOGE? And that he saved up loads of money 'cause he fired everyone and replaced them with AI?
I'm leaving the platform as soon as I get my money. Jesus christ.

Nobody has a right to anyone else's attention, and I think it would be reasonable to insist that anyone who actually wants to have a discussion under a post needs to have demonstrated the tiniest interest in the person who made the post.

People's right to exist should never be determined by their economic value and the incoming administration doesn't actually care about tanking the economy for ideological reasons but I don't think anyone outside the tech industry understands just how much the tech economy relies on trans people

[P] This is pretty much the best possible outcome of the InfoWars auction, and a rare bit of genuinely good news this week.
Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

ok, my hottest hot journalism take is that journalism which relies on paywalls for funding and restricts access to those who cannot afford it or otherwise just cannot be bothered to jump through the hoops to read that content is not accessible journalism, and access matters a ton right now.
