It’s wild how the press is ok with the president abusing the pardon power. That used to be one of the most scrutinized things about a presidency.

I'm sympathetic to "Dems haven't insisted on accountability for GOP crimes in many decades" arguments. But it's also true that there has never in my adult lifetime been serious grassroots Dem voter pressure for such accountability.

House Republicans in disarray—their majority is so thin that if just three more retire or quit, Speaker Johnson loses the gavel before midterms.

I remember Dawning Realization Month for the NFT people too. Think this is going to take much longer because of how wrapped up the whole economy is in this, but it really feels like it's happening.
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.
I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Tesla scales back Robotaxi fleet goal in Austin
The Tesla Robotaxi fleet in Austin has only about 30 Model Ys in use. When we compare 60 vehicles to the 500 cars promised just weeks ago, the difference is huge. Tesla will miss its year-end goal by almost 90%.
