I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

@failbettergames.com I just learned to my dismay that *The Silver Tree* no longer seems to be functioning! Is this temporary? Is something planned for the content? I had so much more soured mare’s milk to drink!

in 2020, these guys who fancied themselves the world's true leaders bore witness to the power of a large-scale social movement so big that it could shift public policy and strip power from them within their own organizations. it undermined their entire sense of themselves and they lost their minds.
i think the big middle event between george floyd protests and covid that accelerated this hard right turn in elite circles was tech employees using slack to stage walk-outs and force concessions from management. tech bosses got a first whiff of organized labor's power and started reading mein kampf
Only in America could a white man with a current net worth of $2 billion see himself as part of a victimized group. 🤦‍♂️

Democrats are racking their brains trying to find the "Joe Rogan of the left" while doing everything they can to defeat people like Zohran Mamdani and AOC, who actually possess the skills they're so desperately looking for.
the thing with Mamdani is that he’s obviously an incredible political talent - the campaign he’s run has been extremely impressive even if you don’t like his policies

the party should be delighted, and that they’re instead pulling out all the stops to beat him speaks volumes

I'm not saying Musk wrote this—I'm saying if you've seen emails in which he's being crappy to his employees they sound a lot like this

What I said to my wife this evening is that I believe a lot of the actions happening now originated in the DOGE offices and are being distributed/executed by others

experts talked about the ban for 3 years, and the 1 thing they agreed on was there was ZERO chance this was how it was going to go down.

Something bad happened this weekend, and I’m afraid it’s going to take us 5 years of FOIA lawsuits to find out what.

Not a perfect man. Not a perfect president. But such a better man and better president than either Elon Musk or Donald Trump that hopefully he's well aware his legacy will outshine theirs forever. He got bills passed no one thought possible, oversaw a historic pandemic recovery, and modeled decency.

The studio head says these weren't bad films and points to how well they did in streaming as evidence of that, but that ignores the difference between "I'll leave the house and pay money to see it" and "It's 2am on a weekend and I'm stoned as fuck, what can I watch."

"Disrupt" is code for "Destroy reliable established services so that money previously widely distributed now funnels into a single source." Just like "AI" is code for "Mine the work humans did in the past so we don't have to pay them for their work in the future." That's why VCs like both words.
“Disrupt” is a very Silicon Valley word. Every time I see it crop up in a business-case, my bullshit-detection hackles go up.

I'm not exaggerating: as a historian I consider it to be historical fact that this is one of the most shameful documents in the history of the United States.

It's a concession by federal law enforcement that there's no means available to it to punish one of the biggest traitors in American history.
