We’re gonna find out in a few years that little things like this were leaked deliberately to generate action on polymarket, kalshi, and the betting apps. Not even a veneer of integrity to anything anymore
The uncontrollable, nihilistic, compulsive need to take a shitty cell phone video that no one will ever remember… the great spiritual illness of our time
Further proof that for presidential hopefuls like Khanna “genocide” is a buzzword to signal maximum outrage, not a moral and legal designation with implications and obligations. “They’re committing genocide but we must provide them military defense” is a patently insane position.
Jeremy: "Do Palestinians have the right to attack Israeli soldiers?"
Ro: No
Jeremy: "Does Israel have a right to drop a single bomb on Gaza?"
Ro: Yes
This is really the ball game
“I cannot be asked to choose between being a liberal and being a Zionist.”
Actress, author and neuroscientist Mayim Bialik (@missmayim) rejects the false binary facing so many liberal Jews today.
Supporting Israel is not a betrayal of progressive values.
It is a belief in Jewish self-determination, dignity and survival.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
Boredoms: badly in need of a reissue campaign. These are the only two CDs of theirs I own. They're masterpieces, and everyone deserves the chance to pick em up. I don't think they're even on streaming so there must be a lot of folks who haven't yet experienced this joy
