Tonight is an interesting conflux of events for me, personally, so let's get the first one out of the way: eat shit Netanyahu Rays in 7

I'm not a professional baseball player but I have watched enough of it to know that you cannot win a baseball game without hitting the baseball with the baseball bat, preferably well enough to allow yourself and maybe some of your friends to travel one complete rotation around the baseball diamond

At this hour my takeaway from the day's events is as follows: the filing of the Anthropic IPO is the only lever left to pull to ease the most absurdly volatile counterparty risk in the history of global finance and calling what's occurring "money laundering" is underselling it to the point of comedy

if you read the Anthropic S-1 you will discover that the largest banks in America are valuing it at roughly One Trillion Dollars, which is about 1/4 the GDP of the entire state of California

This goes double for the professionally-online center-liberal commentariat whose entire purpose on social media is to measure your engagement so that they know just how much of their dignity they can get away with selling to the far-right without deterring you from subscribing to their fucking blog

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

to be fair, Yarvin knows a whole lot about getting couped and trying to eke out a consolation prize by whining about it to people with real power

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who spared a thought for my country today, who amplified information about the coup d’état attempt, and worried about Brazil’s democratic future—the world’s democratic future. We won! Women won! The Amazon won! Young people won! Democracy won! Hope won!

this gets lost over successive generations but never let El Che's mass-consumer appropriated image ever let you forget that he was 1. really that hot 2. really did wear a wide variety of fun hats

Metamora@ancient.technology

that's right

like 30% of all known photographs of Che are him creating in real time the quintessential cultural image of the revolutionary we all know today but like the other 70% of them he's just goofing off with a stogie wearing some hat or another

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

Apropos of nothing: fuck Zionism, fuck the State of Israel, fuck the IDF, fuck Likud, fuck Netanyahu and Smotrich and Ben-Gvir, fuck all Americans who support them, all power to the Palestinian people and Israeli Jewish dissidents who at great personal cost commit themselves to proletarian struggle

Many people are saying this! It would be crazy if Bolsonaro's friends in high places learn a little lesson about what canonically happens when you fail to do the thing. A little amuse-bouche for the audience

That's right, Mao Zedong Bot

Every Communist working in the mass movements should be a friend of the masses and not a boss over them, an indefatigable teacher and not a bureaucratic politician.
