The discourse on space debris is ramping up again; so, I'll just pin this here for a while.

We must be crystal clear about a few points. Long Covid is not a "poorly understood neuroimmune disorder" with no biomarkers. It is a widely studied biological medical condition. Pathology spanning basically all body systems is well documented, with damage in situ across organs

No, I am against shallow anti-human rationalism, which is a much bigger problem in our society.

Is it just me, or is Trump doing this song and dance a little earlier each week?

The economy has never been this lopsided and it’s only getting worse

Because markets are not rational; that's why. Everything you believe is a lie. Hope this helps.

[RenMac: Renaissance Macro Research @RenMacLLC]

This makes very odd assumptions about the market's forward-looking nature. If the price will rise in the next few weeks because of something that is already known (low inventory levels), then why hasn't it happened already?

Israel doing settler colonialism to occupy a castle originally built by European Crusaders in the 11th century when they occupied the Levant. I know genocidal states that use subtext and they’re all cowards

there’s no democracy in America so I wouldn’t worry too much about it

Everyone should disclose who is paying for their voice or tweets in the actual tweets.
Platner and Steyer campaigns should be transparent
And to be clear - no one pays for my tweets.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Sam Altman: “A kid born today will never be smarter than AI.”

They are framing humanity as inferior to AI so they can rewire our society and usher in their AI mass surveillance dystopia.

AI is not superior to humanity. It is fake. We are real. We must always put humanity first.

Less than 24 hours after optimism emerged around a possible Iran-US memorandum, negative vibes are already surfacing.
A well-informed Iranian source tells me there are signs of U.S. retreat on two central issues: the mechanism for unfreezing Iranian assets, and the scope of a ceasefire in Lebanon.
According to the source, the memorandum includes a Lebanon ceasefire framework, but Israel is reportedly uncomfortable with the arrangement and is pushing Washington to include language allowing it to carry out military operations in Lebanon under the justification of responding to “any threat.” Iran is rejecting that formulation and insisting on a sustainable and lasting ceasefire.
Tehran has informed all mediators, including Pakistan, that it will not sign the memorandum unless all clauses are fully agreed and guaranteed. Pakistan reportedly suggested moving forward with agreed sections while postponing contentious points, but Iran rejected that approach, insisting the disputed clauses are fundamental and non-negotiable.
The overall picture suggests Tehran increasingly views Washington as backing away from earlier understandings reached through mediators.
