Remember Kalecki!
Today's price spikes and the subsequent rise in employment will only fuel the far-right.
🌹 We must be bold and tackle insecurity with an economics of essentials.
I cannot stress enough how much modern republican identity is bound up in Texas, and how monumental of a blow to their psyche it would be if Greg Abbott goes down
As Republicans demonize @AngieNixon, and JD Vance tells her "you don't belong in America," they run the risk of having it backfire. Nixon can be a compelling figure. Here she is getting emotional when I asked her to tell voters something personal about herself. @CBSMiami
Não há a menor dúvida que a elite econômica não liga pra democracia, mas o problema desse texto é que confunde qual é o problema econômico sugerindo que o Lula gastou demais e por isso os juros da elevados e crescemos pouco. É o argumento dos assessores do Bolsonaro
I am increasingly concerned about the AI psychosis inside Anthropic.
Imagine zealously trying to build something you believe to be a conscious god while running around claiming it will end the world.
I have no doubt some of these guys are genuine EA lunatics but “please validate that we are creating demigods with consciousness” would also add another trillion or so to their IPO so take this shit with a grain of salt
I am calling for a complete and total shutdown on all Keynes related metaphors until these people figure out what the hell they are talking about https://t.co/CCmlrgZtPU
For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026.
At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day.
It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime.

Macklemore’s "Free Palestine" tour officially sold out. Speaks volumes about the demand for artists using their platform for something bigger than just music.
Why has India failed to industrialize?
Ha-Joon Chang argues that it’s because India’s business and financial elites oppose industrialization — and that it won’t happen unless their power is curbed.
AI isn't going "rogue" because it can't—and we won't get a grip on how companies like OpenAI are playing with fire until we have the language right

The Blue Cross/Blue Shield Association says that AI is already driving *up* healthcare costs, as hospitals use the technology to find instances where they can bill more for the same level of care. https://t.co/af1SzA7D8v
This book is very good. I started it today and was hooked, am about halfway through already. Cooper assesses the ways in which beliefs in traditional family structures underpin the laissez-faire resurgence of the 1990s. Definitely recommend.
