Trump's farmer bailout will primarily go to massive row-crop farmers. Big Ag as they say. Smaller and diversified farms are getting something else - it rhymes with shackjit.
Trump is going to dump tens of $ billions in payments for huge commodity farmers to compensate for huge losses they will suffer from his idiotic trade war. Meanwhile, small farmers growing for local markets will get nothing. Just canceled grants and "thoughts and prayers". wapo.st/3YXdAbU
A Kansas family farm, barely getting by, grapples with Trump’s cuts
Like many of his rural neighbors in northeast Kansas, Jacob Thomas is trying to compensate for deep losses in federal funding. There’s worry and anger.

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.
Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.

The worst comments on YouTube are on the reaction videos to music from the 70s. Condescension is off the charts. Woe to those who react to Aja.

This is not new. Hillary supported the suppression of photos and videos of civilian casualties in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Of course she's mad that social media prevents war mongers like her from lying. Students have been protesting her pro military interventionism for a couple of decades.

Pod Save America is participating in the effort by monied liberal podcasters to go on each other's shows for cross promotion. I have not seen them platform non monied influencers. They live on X and then bemoan how it is poisoning society yet think themselves immune. We are cooked.

the reason that it's so disturbing when Newsom/Buttigieg/Harris say that they want to force trans ppl out of sports is that it signals that they don't want to fight for trans rights at a time when there is a massive genocidal campaign against trans people. 1

This article is just like articles written about Mars Hill in Seattle in the early 2000s. Replace rap with rock music, rough around the edges with tattoos, etc. Non-denominational is marketing. He's just another Pentecostal preacher. Not unique. He's a TikTok star.

For years I've been meaning to write something about how the original sin of economics was defining utility in $ values, because it makes people think that everything can and should be financialized and it's all equal in the end.
The co-founder of Kalshi says: " The long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion."
