can't wait for OpenAI to crash the stock market before they can be sued into oblivion for copyright infringement.
OpenAI is already floating the idea of a government bailout.

They are going to be the pressure point that pops the bubble.

I think it happens soon too. Might be a brutal Christmas.

The best story on the Epstein world was in Mother Jones.

The picture it paints that Epstein used his access to young women to rope in rich, loser men (eg Trump; and used access to rich men‘s money to rope in young women.

Less a scheme than pervert arbitrage.

Branding isn’t the problem, spineless democrats are the problem. Can’t brand your way around DFLers who are beholden to corporate interests, and hell bent on cleansing the party of progressives. To use Paul’s image for this is gross.

Watching Wellstone's legacy of organizing the rural poor, building Labor solidarity and empowering the disenfranchised get squished into "we're making life more affordable!!" over the past 20 years has been so fucking discouraging. No lessons were learned.
it's kinda gross to use photos of paul and sheila wellstone next to this "we're a brand!" stuff, why would you want to make the DFL more like a corporation?

democrats OUT of our farmer labor party!!

Harvard faculty on Larry Summers:

“The cozy friendship between Epstein and Summers is disgraceful."

"Larry Summers told us who he was a long time ago.”

“This kind of mutually reinforcing corruption is what one sees in failing societies and empires in decline.”

Trump’s new “affordability” push is basically reversing the tariffs he said would never cause un-affordability.

I love this but as someone whose father attempted to use college tuition payments as a means of control, I’d love for this to be able to be delinked from parental income. Sometimes parents just don’t want to pay for a thing for their own intensely selfish reasons. That’s not the child’s fault.

The Democrats Must Be Purged Of Their Centrists

The only way for the majority to achieve much-needed reform and progress is to cull the Democratic Party and establishment institutions of centrists who are now complicit with the MAGA agenda.

Can't get over this bizarre essay Peter Thiel wrote in January, promising "apocalypse" and "truth" — and also amplifying conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein's death.

Given Thiel's relationship to Epstein, this get weirder and weirder with time.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

More than anything else, powerful men - like the ones who run the NYT - believe in the legitimacy of power itself. Because if it isn’t legitimate, they have to start asking hard questions about the world and themselves.
