🚨BREAKING: New York City crime has hit a new historic low in 2026...

NYC's fewest murders & shootings in the first 5 months of a year in it's history.

I looked this up and it’s being done for courts to recognise assisted reproduction, surrogacy, and same-sex couples during disputes

So the backlash is another example of how transphobia gets used to justify pushing more restrictive & conservative values across the board

Someone called me pretentious the other day for saying I read Dostoyevsky when I was 15, and that got me thinking—why have we created a culture where engaging deeply with ideas and challenging yourself is considered pretentious?

Big/bad news for consumers. Google is out today with an announcement of how they plan to integrate shopping into their AI offerings including search and Gemini. The plan includes “personalized upselling.” I.e. Analyzing your chat data and using it to overcharge you. 1/2

Trump wants us to run no trade deficits with any countries, which would require Americans to massively curtail our imports of foreign goods. But he also wants tariff revenue to replace the income tax, which would require us to massively expand our imports of foreign goods.

[Bilal Arslan @Bilallaturca_]

@JamesSurowiecki Does this mean FTA's are annulled unilaterally now? Who TF will trust anything signed with US from now on? These tariffs are BS and a bluff from Trump, he just wants to get as much as possible from the countries he's threatening and then cancel these. But China won't flop imho!

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

Just brilliant. Because Indonesia has a high tax on coffee imports, Trump's going to put a 32% tax on coffee imports from Indonesia - even though the US exports no coffee to Indonesia (or most anywhere else). He literally does not understand the concept of comparative advantage.

I've been 90-99% bedbound for nearly 3.5 years. People say "it's the vax" - I never got the vax. People say "it's laziness" - I used to be an athlete.
No more excuses.
